Abstract
This study investigated the association between air pollutants and asthma prevalence in male and female Japanese adults. In this retrospective cross-sectional analysis, annual mean exposure levels of air pollutants, specifically nitrogen dioxide (NO2) and particulate matter with a median aerodynamic diameter ≤2.5 μm (PM2.5), were assessed at a local monitoring site. Multivariable logistic regression models, adjusted for genetic and/or lifestyle factors, were used to explore the association between air pollutants and asthma, with stratification by sex. A total of 1,497 participants aged ≥40 years were included. Their mean age was 65.9 ± 12.4 years, with 847 being women. Overall, 91 participants were diagnosed with asthma. In the multivariable model, ambient exposure levels of NO2 and PM2.5 were significantly associated with asthma in women but not in men. This study highlights sex as a significant determinant of the link between air pollutants and asthma exacerbation, particularly among female Japanese adults.

Abstract
Hyperuricemia (HUA) is a symptom of high blood uric acid (UA) levels, which causes disorders such as gout and renal urinary calculus. Prolonged HUA is often associated with hypertension, atherosclerosis, diabetes mellitus, and chronic kidney disease. Studies have shown that gut microbiota (GM) affect these chronic diseases. This study aimed to determine the relationship between HUA and GM. The microbiome of 224 men and 254 women aged 40 years was analyzed through next-generation sequencing and machine learning. We obtained GM data through 16S rRNA-based sequencing of the fecal samples, finding that alpha-diversity by Shannon index was significantly low in the HUA group. Linear discriminant effect size analysis detected a high abundance of the genera Collinsella and Faecalibacterium in the HUA and non-HUA groups. Based on light gradient boosting machine learning, we propose that HUA can be predicted with high AUC using four clinical characteristics and the relative abundance of nine bacterial genera, including Collinsella and Dorea. In addition, analysis of causal relationships using a direct linear non-Gaussian acyclic model indicated a positive effect of the relative abundance of the genus Collinsella on blood UA levels. Our results suggest abundant Collinsella in the gut can increase blood UA levels.

Abstract
This study collected samples of particulate matter that are 2.5 μm or less in diameter (PM2.5) in Kanazawa, Japan, and Noto Peninsula located 100 km north on the windward side of the westerlies from the Asian continent and characterized the extent of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) and nitro-PAHs (NPAHs) pollution in Kanazawa. Emission areas and specific sources of PM2.5 and of PAHs and NPAHs were clarified via back-trajectory analysis and the NP-method, respectively. The results indicate that during 2020 and 2021, most PAHs (93%) in Kanazawa were transported from the Asian continent by westerlies and that the main source was coal and biomass combustion. The presence of NPAHs in Kanazawa was caused by a mixture of transport from the Asian continent (53%) and local emissions (47%), with the main source of the latter being from vehicles. Although the content of combustion-derived particulates (Pc) was <2.4% of PM2.5 in Kanazawa, this showed a similar seasonal variation (winter > summer) to that of PAHs. The contribution of Pc transported from the Asian continent exceeded that of locally emitted Pc. The current situation of Kanazawa is considerably different from that of 1997, when local vehicles were the main source of pollution.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES This study elucidated the prognosis and risk factors associated with damage accrual during long-term remission maintenance therapy for patients with antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibody-associated vasculitis (AAV). METHODS We obtained data from 120 patients registered in a nationwide prospective cohort study on remission induction therapy in Japanese patients with AAV and rapidly progressive glomerulonephritis (RemIT-JAV-RPGN), who achieved remission at 24 months after treatment initiation and were followed up for additional 24 months. The primary outcome was the vasculitis damage index (VDI) score at Month 48, and the secondary outcome included risk factors associated with increased total VDI at Month 48. RESULTS The understudied patients comprised 52 men and 68 women aged 68 ± 13 years. Between Months 25 and 48, the patients' survival rate was 95% (114/120). End-stage renal disease developed in seven patients by Month 48, and 64 cases had increased VDI. The multivariable analysis results revealed that oral prednisolone (PSL) doses at Month 24 were associated with damage accrual between Months 24 and 48. CONCLUSIONS VDI accrual was observed in more than half of patients with AAV during maintenance therapy, and increased VDI scores were associated with oral PSL doses 24 months after initiating remission induction therapy in Japan.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To investigate the relationship between oral frailty (OF), nutrient intake and calf circumference (CC) in middle-aged and older adults. DESIGN Cross-sectional study. SETTING Residents of four model districts of Shika town, Ishikawa Prefecture, Japan, using data from November 2017 to February 2018. PARTICIPANTS One hundred and ninety-four residents aged ≥50 years in four model districts of Shika town. The OF total score ≥3 was defined as OF. Participants were divided into OF and non-OF groups and divided into the low-CC/kg and the high-CC/kg groups. OUTCOME MEASURES The primary outcome is to use a two-way analysis of covariance to analyse the interaction between the two CC/kg groups and the two OF groups on nutrition intake. The secondary outcome is to use multiple regression analysis to investigate the nutrients significantly related to CC/kg when stratified by OF, with age, sex, body mass index, drinking status, smoking status and regular exercise as input covariates. RESULTS A two-way analysis of covariance revealed a significant interaction between the two CC/kg groups and the two OF groups on animal protein intake (p=0.039). Multiple comparisons using the Bonferroni analysis revealed a significantly lower animal protein intake in the OF group than in the non-OF group with a low CC/kg (p=0.033) but not in the group with a high CC/kg. The multiple regression analysis stratified by OF revealed a positive correlation between animal protein intake and CC/kg (p=0.002). CONCLUSIONS The present results revealed a significantly lower animal protein intake in the OF group than in the non-OF group in the low-CC/kg group, but no such difference was observed in the high-CC/kg group. Further longitudinal studies are needed to elucidate this relationship.

Abstract
Despite treatment advances, acute kidney injury (AKI)-related mortality rates are still high in hospitalized adults, often due to sepsis. Sepsis and AKI could synergistically worsen the outcomes of critically ill patients. TLR4 signaling and mitochondrial antiviral signaling protein (MAVS) signaling are innate immune responses essential in kidney diseases, but their involvement in sepsis-associated AKI (SA-AKI) remains unclear. We studied the role of MAVS in kidney injury related to the TLR4 signaling pathway using a murine LPS-induced AKI model in wild-type and MAVS-knockout mice. We confirmed the importance of M1 macrophage in SA-AKI through in vivo assessment of inflammatory responses. The TLR4 signaling pathway was upregulated in activated bone marrow-derived macrophages, in which MAVS helped maintain the LPS-suppressed TLR4 mRNA level. MAVS regulated redox homeostasis via NADPH oxidase Nox2 and mitochondrial reverse electron transport in macrophages to alleviate the TLR4 signaling response to LPS. Hypoxia-inducible factor 1α (HIF-1α) and AP-1 were key regulators of TLR4 transcription and connected MAVS-dependent reactive oxygen species signaling with the TLR4 pathway. Inhibition of succinate dehydrogenase could partly reduce inflammation in LPS-treated bone marrow-derived macrophages without MAVS. These findings highlight the renoprotective role of MAVS in LPS-induced AKI by regulating reactive oxygen species generation-related genes and maintaining redox balance. Controlling redox homeostasis through MAVS signaling may be a promising therapy for SA-AKI.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Concerns regarding the impact of screen-based sedentary behavior on health have been increasing. Therefore, the present study investigated the longitudinal relationship between multiple screen time and nutrient intake in children and adolescents. METHODS The present study was conducted utilizing 3 years longitudinal data. Study subjects were 740 Japanese children aged between 6 and 12 years at baseline and between 9 and 15 years in the follow-up. Screen-based sedentary behavior was assessed using screen time, including television (TV) viewing, personal computer (PC) use, and mobile phone (MP) use. The main outcomes were the intakes of nutrients. Mixed effect multivariate linear regression analyses were used to examine the longitudinal relationship between screen-based sedentary time and nutrient intake. Covariates included in the multivariable analysis consisted of sex, age, solitary eating, skipping breakfast, staying up late, and body weight status, as confounders, and physical inactivity, as mediator. RESULTS In boys, a longer total screen time longitudinally correlated with higher intake of energy and lower intakes of protein, dietary fiber, minerals, and vitamins. In girls, longer total screen time longitudinally associated with higher intake of sucrose and lower intakes of protein, minerals, and vitamins. In boys, a longer TV viewing time was associated with higher intake of sucrose and lower intakes of protein, minerals, and vitamins. In girls, a longer TV viewing time was associated with higher intake of carbohydrates and lower intakes of protein, fat, minerals, and vitamins. In boys, relationships were observed between a longer PC use time and higher intakes of energy as well as lower intakes of protein, minerals, and vitamins. Relationship was observed between longer PC use time and lower intakes of minerals in girls. An increased MP use time was associated with higher intakes of energy, and lower intakes of protein, sucrose, dietary fiber, minerals, and vitamins in boys. A longer MP use time was associated with higher intakes of fat, and salt as well as lower intakes of carbohydrates, protein, minerals, and vitamins in girls. CONCLUSIONS The present results revealed that longer screen-based sedentary behaviors were longitudinally associated with nutrient intake in children and adolescents. Future study is needed to elucidate these relationships.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE We explored the relationship of dietary intake of fatty acids with chronic kidney disease (CKD) according to glycemic status in Japanese people. METHODS A total of 1031 participants aged ≥40 y were included in this population-based, cross-sectional study. A validated self-administered diet history questionnaire was used to measure the dietary intakes of fat and fatty acids, including omega-3 and omega-6 polyunsaturated fatty acids. CKD was defined as estimated glomerular filtration rate < 60 mL/min/1.73 m2 and diabetes as the use of antidiabetic medication, fasting plasma glucose ≥ 126 mg/dL, or hemoglobin A1c of ≥6.5%. Urine biomarkers of kidney injury (liver-type fatty acid-binding protein, β2-microglobulin, and albumin) were also examined. RESULTS The mean age of the participants was 62.5 ± 11.2 y, and 482 (46.8%) of them were men. Overall, 177 (17.2%) participants had CKD. In the multivariable model, low omega-3 intake (odds ratio = 0.109; 95% CI, 0.019-0.645) and high omega-6-to-omega-3 ratio (odds ratio = 2.112; 95% CI, 1.167-3.822) were associated with CKD in participants with diabetes but not in those without. In selected participants with diabetes, a substantial trend of urinary liver-type fatty acid-binding protein and β2-microglobulin level elevation along with an increase in the dietary ratio of omega-6 to omega-3 was observed. CONCLUSIONS Low dietary omega-3 intake and high omega-6-to-omega-3 ratio were associated with CKD in middle-aged and older Japanese people with diabetes but not in those without diabetes. These results may provide insight into the more tailored approaches for dietary polyunsaturated fatty acids to prevent CKD.

Abstract
AIMS/INTRODUCTION This multicenter cohort study retrospectively assessed the association between polar vasculosis and the progression of diabetic kidney disease (DKD) in type 2 diabetes. MATERIALS AND METHODS We enrolled 811 patients with type 2 diabetes, biopsy-proven DKD, and proteinuria (≥0.15 g/g creatinine [g/day]). The association between polar vasculosis and other kidney lesions was explored. The outcome was DKD progression defined as a composite of renal replacement therapy initiation or 50% decline in estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) from baseline. RESULTS Of the 811 cases, 677 (83.5%) had polar vasculosis. In multivariate logistic regression analysis, subendothelial widening of the glomerular basement membrane, glomerulomegaly, glomerular class in the Renal Pathology Society classification ≥IIb, vascular lesions, age, eGFR, and hemoglobin A1c were positively associated with polar vasculosis, whereas interstitial fibrosis and tubular atrophy (IFTA) was negatively associated with polar vasculosis. During a median follow-up of 5.2 years, progression of DKD occurred in 322 of 677 (7.4 events/100 person-years) and 79 of 134 (11.4 events/100 person-years) cases with and without polar vasculosis, respectively. Kaplan-Meier analysis showed that polar vasculosis was associated with lower cumulative incidences of DKD progression. Multivariate Cox regression analyses showed that polar vasculosis was associated with a lower risk of DKD progression, regardless of eGFR or proteinuria subgroups. These associations between polar vasculosis and better kidney outcome were unchanged considering all-cause mortality before DKD progression as a competing event. CONCLUSIONS This study showed that polar vasculosis of DKD was associated with less advanced IFTA and a better kidney outcome in type 2 diabetes with proteinuria.

Abstract
Introduction Immunoglobulin G4 (IgG4) is a member of the human immunoglobulin G (IgG) subclass, a protein involved in immunity to pathogens and the body's resistance system. IgG4-related diseases (IgG4-RD) are intractable diseases in which IgG4 levels in the blood are elevated, causing inflammation in organs such as the liver, pancreas, and salivary glands. IgG4-RD are known to be more prevalent in males than in females, but the etiology remains to be elucidated. This study was conducted to investigate the relationship between gut microbiota (GM) and serum IgG4 levels in the general population. Methods In this study, the relationship between IgG4 levels and GM evaluated in male and female groups of the general population using causal inference. The study included 191 men and 207 women aged 40 years or older from Shika-machi, Ishikawa. GM DNA was analyzed for the 16S rRNA gene sequence using next-generation sequencing. Participants were bifurcated into high and low IgG4 groups, depending on median serum IgG4 levels. Results ANCOVA, Tukey's HSD, linear discriminant analysis effect size, least absolute shrinkage and selection operator logistic regression model, and correlation analysis revealed that Anaerostipes, Lachnospiraceae, Megasphaera, and [Eubacterium] hallii group were associated with IgG4 levels in women, while Megasphaera, [Eubacterium] hallii group, Faecalibacterium, Ruminococcus.1, and Romboutsia were associated with IgG4 levels in men. Linear non-Gaussian acyclic model indicated three genera, Megasphaera, [Eubacterium] hallii group, and Anaerostipes, and showed a presumed causal association with IgG4 levels in women. Discussion This differential impact of the GM on IgG4 levels based on sex is a novel and intriguing finding.

Abstract
The renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system (RAAS) is a regulatory mechanism of the endocrine system and is associated with various diseases, including hypertension and renal and cardiovascular diseases. The gut microbiota (GM) have been associated with various diseases, mainly in animal models. However, to our knowledge, no studies have examined the relationship between the RAAS and GM in humans. The present study aimed to assess the association between the systemic RAAS and GM genera and their causal relationships. The study participants were 377 members of the general population aged 40 years or older in Shika-machi, Japan. Plasma renin activity (PRA), plasma aldosterone concentration (PAC), aldosterone-renin ratio (ARR), and GM composition were analyzed using the 16S rRNA method. The participants were divided into high and low groups according to the PRA, PAC, and ARR values. U-tests, one-way analysis of covariance, and linear discriminant analysis of effect size were used to identify the important bacterial genera between the two groups, and binary classification modeling using Random Forest was used to calculate the importance of the features. The results showed that Blautia, Bacteroides, Akkermansia, and Bifidobacterium were associated with the RAAS parameters. Causal inference analysis using the linear non-Gaussian acyclic model revealed a causal effect of Blautia on PAC via SBP. These results strengthen the association between the systemic RAAS and GM in humans, and interventions targeting the GM may provide new preventive measures and treatments for hypertension and renal disease.

Abstract
PURPOSE Several D-amino acids have been shown to be protective against kidney injury in mice. Risperidone, a currently used atypical antipsychotic agent for schizophrenia, is also known to inhibit the activity of D-amino acid oxidase, which degrades certain D-amino acids. Based on the hypothesis that risperidone would prevent kidney disease progression, this study investigated the association between risperidone use and kidney function decline in patients with schizophrenia. METHODS This retrospective cohort study included patients who were diagnosed with schizophrenia and had data available from two or more serum creatinine measurements between April 1, 2010, and March 31, 2020. Patients who used risperidone for at least 30 days were included in the risperidone group, whereas those who had no record of risperidone use were included in the control group. Cox regression models were used to evaluate the risk for 40% decline in estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) in patients treated with risperidone compared to that in the control group. FINDINGS Overall, 212 patients used risperidone and 1468 patients had no record of risperidone use. The mean age was 55 years, 759 (45%) of the patients were male, and the mean eGFR at baseline was 88 mL/min/1.73 m2. The mean age in the risperidone group was less than that in the control group (52 vs 56 years); other baseline characteristics were comparable between the two groups. During a mean follow-up of 1.6 years, 267 patients (16%) had a 40% eGFR decline. The incidence rate of 40% eGFR decline was lower in the risperidone group than in the control group (60 vs 104 per 1000 person-years). After adjustment for baseline age, sex, and eGFR, risperidone use was associated with a decreased risk for 40% eGFR decline (hazard ratio = 0.54; 95% CI, 0.33-0.87; P = 0.01). IMPLICATIONS Risperidone use may be associated with decreased risk for kidney function decline in patients with schizophrenia. Further studies are warranted to validate these findings.

Abstract
Association rule is a transparent machine learning method expected to share information about risks for chronic kidney disease (CKD) among diabetic patients, but its findings in clinical data are limited. We used the association rule to evaluate the risk for kidney disease in General and Worker diabetic cohorts. The absence of risk factors was examined for association with stable kidney function and worsening kidney function. A confidence value was used as an index of association, and a lift of > 1 was considered significant. Analyses were applied for individuals stratified by KDIGO's (Kidney Disease: Improving Global Outcomes) CKD risk categories. A General cohort of 4935 with a mean age of 66.7 years and a Worker cohort of 2153 with a mean age of 47.8 years were included in the analysis. Good glycemic control was significantly related to stable kidney function in low-risk categories among the General cohort, and in very-high risk categories among the Worker cohort; confidences were 0.82 and 0.77, respectively. Similar results were found with poor glycemic control and worsening kidney function; confidences of HbA1c were 0.41 and 0.27, respectively. Similarly, anemia, obesity, and hypertension showed significant relationships in the low-risk General and very-high risk Worker cohorts. Stratified risk assessment using association rules revealed the importance of the presence or absence of risk factors.

Abstract
Fibroblast accumulation and extracellular matrix (ECM) deposition are common critical steps for the progression of organ fibrosis, but the precise molecular mechanisms remain to be fully investigated. We have previously demonstrated that lysophosphatidic acid contributes to organ fibrosis through the production of connective tissue growth factor (CTGF) via actin cytoskeleton-dependent signaling, myocardin-related transcription factor family (MRTF) consisting of MRTF-A and MRTF-B-serum response factor (SRF) pathway. In this study, we investigated the role of the MRTF-SRF pathway in the development of renal fibrosis, focusing on the regulation of ECM-focal adhesions (FA) in renal fibroblasts. Here we showed that both MRTF-A and -B were required for the expressions of ECM-related molecules such as lysyl oxidase family members, type I procollagen and fibronectin in response to transforming growth factor (TGF)-β1 . TGF-β1 -MRTF-SRF pathway induced the expressions of various components of FA such as integrin α subunits (αv , α2 , α11 ) and β subunits (β1 , β3 , β5 ) as well as integrin-linked kinase (ILK). On the other hand, the blockade of ILK suppressed TGF-β1 -induced MRTF-SRF transcriptional activity, indicating a mutual relationship between MRTF-SRF and FA. Myofibroblast differentiation along with CTGF expression was also dependent on MRTF-SRF and FA components. Finally, global MRTF-A deficient and inducible fibroblast-specific MRTF-B deficient mice (MRTF-AKO BiFBKO mice) are protected from renal fibrosis with adenine administration. Renal expressions of ECM-FA components and CTGF as well as myofibroblast accumulation were suppressed in MRTF-AKO BiFBKO mice. These results suggest that the MRTF-SRF pathway might be a therapeutic target for renal fibrosis through the regulation of components forming ECM-FA in fibroblasts.

Abstract
BACKGROUND This study investigated the sex differences in the risk of end-stage kidney disease (ESKD) and mortality, as well as the effect modification of sex on associated factors in patients with type 2 diabetes. METHODS This multicenter observational cohort study included 4328 patients with type 2 diabetes. Hazard ratios (HRs) with 95% confidence intervals (CIs) of sex for ESKD and death were estimated using Cox proportional regression with adjustment for baseline covariates. For assessing risk modification, HRs and incidence rates for ESKD and death were compared between sexes across patient characteristics using Cox proportional and Poisson regression models. RESULTS During a median follow-up of 7 years, 276 patients (70% men) developed ESKD, and 241 patients (68% men) died. Men had higher risks of ESKD (HR 1.34; 95% CI 1.02-1.75; p = .034) and death (HR 1.64; 95% CI 1.24-2.16; p = .001) versus women after adjusting for multiple covariates. Among patients with microalbuminuria, men had a substantially higher risk of ESKD versus women, compared to those with normo- and macroalbuminuria (p for interaction .04). Incidence rates were also increased in men versus women with albuminuria of around 300 mg/g. No differences were detected in the association of sex and death across baseline patient subgroups. CONCLUSIONS In type 2 diabetes, men had an increased risk of ESKD and death versus women. Moderately increased albuminuria was strongly associated with sex difference in developing ESKD.

Abstract
Although nutrient intake and alcohol consumption are both closely associated with the incidence of diabetes, their interrelationships remain unclear. Therefore, we herein have investigated the interrelationships among nutrient intake, alcohol consumption, and the incidence of diabetes using longitudinal data. This study included 969 residents ≥40 years living in Japan. In 2011 and 2012, a baseline study was conducted using questionnaires on basic demographics, diabetes, nutrient intake, and lifestyle habits. In 2018 and 2019, a follow-up study was performed using questionnaires and medical records on diabetes. Two-way analysis of covariance (two-way ANCOVA) was used to test the interactions of drinking habits and diabetes incidence on nutrients intake. The prospective relationship between nutrient intake at baseline and the incidence of diabetes in the follow-up stratified by drinkers and non-drinkers was evaluated using multiple logistic regression analysis. Interactions were observed for vegetable protein intake (p = 0.023) and animal fat intake (p = 0.016) in males. Vegetable protein intake negatively correlated with the incidence of diabetes in non-drinkers (odds ratio (OR): 0.208; 95% confidence interval (95% CI): 0.046-0.935; p = 0.041). Furthermore, animal fat intake positively correlated with the incidence of diabetes in non-drinkers (OR: 1.625; 95% CI: 1.020-2.589; p = 0.041). Therefore, vegetable protein and animal fat intakes in combination with drinking habits need to be considered for the prevention of diabetes.

Abstract
LAY ABSTRACT It is known about food selectivity among children with autism spectrum disorder. However, the nutritional inadequacy among children with ASD is not clear. Especially, long-term evaluation has not been studied. We examined the prospective relationship between autistic traits in children and subsequent nutrient intake in later childhood. We utilized data obtained at two time points from a study conducted in Japan. Participants were 759 Japanese children aged between 7 and 12 years at baseline and between 10 and 15 years in the follow-up. The results showed relatively lower intakes of sodium, calcium, magnesium, iron, vitamin D, vitamin B2, and vitamin B12 among children with than without autistic traits. Relatively lower intake of minerals and vitamins in children with autistic traits is more evident in later childhood. The results suggest the importance of screening the nutrient intake of children with autistic traits across childhood.

Abstract
The association between oral frailty (OFr) and body action has been investigated, but its association with systemic function remains unclear. Therefore, this cross-sectional study examined the association between OFr with decreased bone mineral density (BMD) and renal function in residents of Shika town, Ishikawa Prefecture, Japan aged ≥40 years. This study included 400 inhabitants. The OFr total score was assessed using three oral domains in the Kihon Checklist (a self-reported comprehensive health checklist), the number of teeth, and brushing frequency per day. Measurements were the estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) and the osteo-sono assessment index (OSI). Using a two-way analysis of covariance (p = 0.002), significantly lower OSI was indicated in the eGFR < 60 and OFr group than in the eGFR of < 60 and non-OFr group after adjusting for age, body mass index, and drinking and smoking status as confounding factors. Multiple logistic regression analysis confirmed this relationship (p = 0.006). Therefore, lower BMD seems to be associated with lower renal function only when accompanied by OFr. Further longitudinal studies are needed to confirm these results.

Abstract
<b><i>Introduction:</i></b> The number of patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) is increasing worldwide. Cognitive impairment is one of the comorbidities of CKD. With the increased number of aged population, novel biomarkers of impaired cognitive function are required. Intra-body profile of amino acid (AA) is reportedly altered in patients with CKD. Although some AAs act as neurotransmitters in the brain, it is not clear whether altered AA profile are associated with cognitive function in patients with CKD. Therefore, intra-brain and plasma levels of AAs are evaluated with respect to cognitive function in patients with CKD. <b><i>Methods:</i></b> Plasma levels of AAs were compared between 14 patients with CKD, including 8 patients with diabetic kidney disease, and 12 healthy controls to identify the alteration of specific AAs in CKD. Then, these AAs were evaluated in the brains of 42 patients with brain tumor using non-tumor lesion of the resected brain. Cognitive function is analyzed with respect to intra-brain levels of AAs and kidney function. Moreover, plasma AAs were analyzed in 32 hemodialyzed patients with/without dementia. <b><i>Results:</i></b> In patients with CKD, plasma levels of asparagine (Asn), serine (Ser), alanine (Ala), and proline (Pro) were increased as compared to patients without CKD. Among these AAs, L-Ser, L-Ala, and D-Ser show higher levels than the other AAs in the brain. Intra-brain levels of L-Ser was correlated with cognitive function and kidney function. The number of D-amino acid oxidase or serine racemase-positive cells was not correlated with kidney function. Moreover, the plasma levels of L-Ser are also decreased in patients with declined cognitive function who are treated with chronic hemodialysis. <b><i>Conclusion:</i></b> The decreased levels of L-Ser are associated with impaired cognitive function in CKD patients. Especially, plasma L-Ser levels may have a potential for novel biomarker of impaired cognitive function in patients with hemodialysis.

Abstract
The number of patients on hemodialysis is increasing globally; diabetes mellitus (DM) complications is the major cause of hemodialysis in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD). The D-amino acid (AA) profile is altered in patients with CKD; however, it has not been studied in patients with CKD and DM. Furthermore, bacteria responsible for altering the D-AA profile are not well understood. Therefore, we examined the D-AA profiles and associated bacteria in patients with CKD, with and without DM. We enrolled 12 healthy controls and 54 patients with CKD, with and without DM, and determined their salivary, stool, plasma, and urine chiral AA levels using two-dimensional high-performance liquid chromatography. We performed 16S rRNA gene sequencing analysis of the oral and gut microbiota to determine the association between the abundance of bacterial species and D-AA levels. Plasma D-alanine and D-serine levels were higher in patients with CKD than in healthy adults (p < 0.01), and plasma D-alanine levels were higher in patients with CKD and DM than in those without DM. The abundance of salivary Streptococcus, which produced D-alanine, increased in patients with CKD and DM and was positively correlated with plasma D-alanine levels. Patients with CKD and DM had unique oral microbiota and D-alanine profiles. Plasma D-alanine is a potential biomarker for patients with CKD and DM.

Abstract
<b><i>Introduction:</i></b> Treating diabetic nephropathy with low-density lipoprotein (LDL) apheresis reduces proteinuria and improves prognosis. However, its impact on patients’ quality of life (QoL) is unclear. This study evaluated the effect of LDL apheresis on QoL in patients with diabetes, proteinuria, and hypercholesterolemia. <b><i>Methods:</i></b> In this nationwide multicenter prospective study, we enrolled 40 patients with diabetes. Inclusion criteria were proteinuria (defined as an albumin/creatinine ratio ≥3 g/g), serum creatinine levels <2 mg/dL, and serum LDL ≥120 mg/dL despite drug treatment. LDL apheresis was performed 6–12 times within 12 weeks. The 36-item Short Form Health Survey (SF-36) was used to analyze QoL. <b><i>Results:</i></b> The study enrolled 35 patients (27 men and 8 women; mean age 58.9 ± 11.9 years). A comparison of baseline SF-36 values with those at the end of the course of apheresis found an improvement in the mean physical component summary (37.9 ± 11.4 vs. 40.6 ± 10.5, <i>p</i> = 0.051) and a significant increase in the mean mental component summary (MCS) (49.4 ± 8.4 vs. 52.5 ± 10.9, <i>p</i> = 0.026). A multivariable linear regression analysis revealed a history of coronary heart disease negatively correlated with the MCS increase at the end of the course of apheresis (<i>β</i> coefficient −6.935, 95% confidence interval, 13.313 to−0.556, <i>p</i> = 0.034). <b><i>Conclusion:</i></b> Our results suggest that LDL apheresis may improve the mental and physical QoL in patients with diabetes, proteinuria, and hypercholesterolemia.

Abstract
The relationship between calcium intake and bone strength in older Asian individuals, including Japanese, is controversial; therefore, we herein investigated this relationship in older Japanese populations. We performed a cross-sectional analysis of 314 participants older than 65 years who voluntarily participated in a medical examination and responded to questionnaires. The osteo-sono assessment index (OSI) measured at the right calcaneus using a quantitative ultrasonic device was used as an indicator of bone strength. The daily dietary intake of calcium was assessed using a brief-type self-administered diet history questionnaire. A two-way analysis of covariance revealed a significant interaction between sex and calcium intake on the OSI (p < 0.01). A multiple regression analysis showed a positive correlation between calcium intake and the OSI in males (p < 0.01), but not females (p = 0.27). In females, grip strength divided by body weight positively correlated with the OSI (p = 0.04). The present results suggest that a higher calcium intake contributes to bone strength in older Japanese males. Although a higher grip strength may contribute to bone strength in females, the potential of estrogen as a confounding factor needs to be considered.

Abstract
Epidemiological studies reported that resilience, generally regarded as the ability to manage stress in the face of adversity, correlates with mental health in middle-aged and older adults. Currently, there is limited information on eating habits that affect resilience. Therefore, this cross-sectional study investigated the relationship between vitamin intake and resilience based on sex in community-dwelling middle-aged and older individuals in Shika town, Ishikawa Prefecture, Japan. A total of 221 participants (106 men and 115 women) aged 40 years or older were included in the analysis. We assessed vitamin intake and resilience using a brief-type self-administered diet history questionnaire (BDHQ) and the resilience scale (RS), respectively. A two-way analysis of covariance (ANCOVA) revealed that higher intakes of β-carotene and vitamin K were associated with higher RS in women, but not in men. Furthermore, a multiple logistic regression analysis stratified by sex showed that β-carotene and vitamin K were significant independent variables for RS only in women. The present study suggests that higher intakes of β-carotene and vitamin K were associated with higher resilience among middle-aged and older women. The results obtained demonstrate that β-carotene and vitamin K intakes may enhance resilience by strengthening stress tolerance.

Abstract
Kinesin family member 26b (Kif26b) is essential for kidney development, and its deletion in mice leads to kidney agenesis. However, the roles of this gene in adult settings remain elusive. Thus, this study aims to investigate the role of Kif26b in the progression of renal fibrosis. A renal fibrosis model with adenine administration using Kif26b heterozygous mice and wild-type mice was established. Renal fibrosis and the underlying mechanism were investigated. The underlying pathways and functions of Kif26b were evaluated in an in vitro model using primary renal fibroblasts. Kif26b heterozygous mice were protected from renal fibrosis with adenine administration. Renal expressions of connective tissue growth factor (CTGF) and myofibroblast accumulation were reduced in Kif26b heterozygous mice. The expression of nonmuscle myosin heavy chain II (NMHCII), which binds to the C-terminus of Kif26b protein, was also suppressed in Kif26b heterozygous mice. The in vitro study revealed reduced expressions of CTGF, α-smooth muscle actin, and myosin heavy chain 9 (Myh9) via transfection with siRNAs targeting Kif26b in renal fibroblasts (RFB). RFBs, which were transfected by the expression vector of Kif26b, demonstrated higher expressions of these genes than non-transfected cells. Finally, Kif26b suppression and NMHCII blockage led to reduced abilities of migration and collagen gel contraction in renal fibroblasts. Taken together, Kif26b contributes to the progression of interstitial fibrosis via migration and myofibroblast differentiation through Myh9 in the renal fibrosis model. Blockage of this pathway at appropriate timing might be a therapeutic approach for renal fibrosis.

Abstract
Abstract
Background/Introduction
Atrial fibrillation (AF) and heart failure (HF) frequently coexist in the elderly people, leading to worse clinical outcomes. HF with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) is the most common form of HF in the elderly, particularly in women, associated with AF. Ablation of AF in younger patients with HF with reduced EF (HFrEF) has become an established treatment option. However, clinical impact of ablation for persistent AF accompanying with HF in the elderly remains unclear.
Purpose
This study aimed to evaluate the effect of catheter ablation of persistent AF with heart failure in the elderly.
Methods
Consecutive 70 patients who underwent catheter ablation of persistent AF accompanying with HF (NYHA class> II, mean LVEF 51.7%) in our institution were retrospectively analyzed with regards to their 1-year clinical outcomes, HF markers such as BNP, renal function and transthoracic echocardiographic findings. Patients were dichotomized by age of 75-year-old (31 elderly vs 39 younger subjects) and separately analyzed.
Results
Mean age of the studied population was 70.5 year-old; 79.6±3.8 in the elderly group and 63.2±8.5 in the younger group. The elderly patients were more frequently females (45% vs 21%). Longstanding persistent AF was observed in 32% in the elderly and 28% in the younger group. Circumferential pulmonary vein isolation (PVI) was performed in all patients, with additional ablations of liner lesions and/or non-PV foci as needed. PVI alone was observed in 54.8% in the elderly and 41% in the younger group. There were no serious complications associated with the procedure. During 1 year after ablation, recurrence of AF was observed in 15 patients [6/31 (19%) in the elderly, 9/39 (23%) in the younger]. Readmission due to HF was observed in only 1 patient in the elderly and 2 patients in the younger group (3% vs. 5%, respectively). Cardiovascular events were observed in 3 patients [2/31 (6%) in the elderly, 1/39 (3%) in the younger], but there was no death. The BNP level as well as the NYHA class significantly decreased at 1-year follow-up compared to baseline in the both groups (Figure A and B). There was no change in serum creatinine level in the both groups (Figure C). The left atrial dimension and the LA volume index decreased at 1-year follow-up in the both groups (Figure D and E). The LVEF improved only in the younger group (Figure F).
Conclusions
Ablation of persistent AF in the elderly with HF (mostly with preserved EF) was associated with hemodynamic and functional improvements without deteriorating renal function in a mid-term, which was mostly comparable to the results in the younger.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The purpose of the present study was to investigate the serum levels of endocannabinoids (eCBs; anandamide: AEA and 2-arachidonoylglycerol: 2-AG) and daily intake of polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs; arachidonic acid: ARA, docosahexaenoic acid: DHA, and eicosapentaenoic acid: EPA) among subjects with high and low depressive symptoms. METHODS The participants comprised female community-dwellers aged 40 years or older in Japan. Among 208 females, fourteen participants with high depressive symptoms and ten participants with low depressive symptoms were selected for this study. The depressive symptoms were measured by the Japanese version of the Centre for Epidemiologic Studies Depression Scale (CES-D). The daily intake of PUFAs were assessed utilising the brief-type self-administered diet history questionnaire. The blood samples were analysed for AEA, 2-AG, and the CB receptor 1 gene (CNR1) single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) rs806377. RESULTS The ratio of AEA serum level to ARA intake (AEA/ARA) in high depressive participants was significantly higher compared with those in low depressive participants even after controlling for confounders, whereas there were no significant differences in the serum concentrations of eCBs, daily intake of PUFAs, as well as the CNR1 SNP (rs806377) between the high and low CES-D scored groups. CONCLUSION The elevated level of AEA/ARA among high depressive participants suggests that the conversion rate of ARA to AEA may be accelerated in depressive individuals.

Abstract
Background Although many clinical parameters have been identified as predictors for cardiovascular disease (CVD) development in the general population, the accurate predictor for CVD in patients with obesity is still unknown. Objective The study aimed to explore an additional risk factor and predictor for CVD in patients with overweight/obesity considering the interaction of obesity-related pathophysiology. Methods The Japan Obesity and Metabolic Syndrome study, a multicenter prospective study, enrolled 787 outpatients, of which 318 eligible patients were analyzed. Patients with fasting plasma glucose (FPG) levels ≥6.11 and < 6.11 mmol/L were considered to have high FPG (HFPG) and normal FPG (NFPG), respectively. Thirty-six patients who developed CVD during the 5 years follow-up were assigned to the CVD group. Results Cox's proportional hazards model revealed no significant association between CVD and cystatin C-based estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFRcys) or creatinine-based eGFR (eGFRcr) in the NFPG group. In the HFPG group, lower eGFRcys, but not eGFRcr, was significantly associated with CVD development. A generalized linear mixed model demonstrated greater reduction in eGFRcys levels over time with HFPG than with NFPG. Although the CVD group showed gradual reduction in eGFRcys levels, the non-CVD group-matched using propensity scores-did not show a decline in eGFRcys levels. Conclusions Lower eGFRcys levels may be more accurate than eGFRcr in predicting CVD development in patients with overweight/obesity and hyperglycemia. Furthermore, eGFRcys reduction over time is associated with CVD development. Clinical Trial Registry Number UMIN000000559.

Abstract
Dyslipidemia (DL) is one of the most common lifestyle-related diseases. There are few reports showing the causal relationship between gut microbiota (GM) and DL. In the present study, we used a linear non-Gaussian acyclic model (LiNGAM) to evaluate the causal relationship between GM and DL. A total of 79 men and 82 women aged 40 years or older living in Shika-machi, Ishikawa Prefecture, Japan were included in the analysis, and their clinical information was investigated. DNA extracted from the GM was processed to sequence the 16S rRNA gene using next-generation sequencing. Participants were divided into four groups based on sex and lipid profile information. The results of one-way analysis of covariance, linear discriminant analysis effect size, and least absolute value reduction and selection operator logistic regression model indicated that several bacteria between men and women may be associated with DL. The LiNGAM showed a presumed causal relationship between different bacteria and lipid profiles in men and women. In men, Prevotella 9 and Bacteroides were shown to be potentially associated with changes in low- and high-density lipoprotein cholesterol levels. In women, the LiNGAM results showed two bacteria, Akkermansia and Escherichia/Shigella, had a presumptive causal relationship with lipid profiles. These results may provide a new sex-based strategy to reduce the risk of developing DL and to treat DL through the regulation of the intestinal environment using specific GM.

Abstract
Polygenic susceptibility likely influences individual responses to air pollutants and the risk of asthma. We compared the role of polygenic susceptibility on air pollution-associated asthma between German and Japanese women. We investigated women that were enrolled in the German SALIA cohort (n = 771, mean age = 73 years) and the Japanese Shika cohort (n = 847, mean age = 67 years) with known asthma status. Adjusted logistic regression models were used to assess the associations between (1) particulate matter with a median aerodynamic diameter ≤ 2.5μm (PM2.5) and nitrogen dioxide (NO2), (2) polygenic risk scores (PRS), and (3) gene-environment interactions (G × E) with asthma. We found an increased risk of asthma in Japanese women after exposure to low pollutant levels (PM2.5: median = 12.7µg/m3, p-value < 0.001, NO2: median = 8.5µg/m3, p-value < 0.001) and in German women protective polygenic effects (p-value = 0.008). While we found no significant G × E effects, the direction in both groups was that the PRS increased the effect of PM2.5 and decreased the effect of NO2 on asthma. Our study confirms that exposure to low air pollution levels increases the risk of asthma in Japanese women and indicates polygenic effects in German women; however, there was no evidence of G × E effects. Future genome-wide G × E studies should further explore the role of ethnic-specific polygenic susceptibility to asthma.

Abstract
Despite a close relationship between chronic kidney disease (CKD) and uric acid level, few studies have examined the relationship between uric acid level and fat intake by kidney function status. Therefore, we investigated the association between dietary fat intake and hyperuricemia with and without decreased kidney function in males living in Shika Town, Ishikawa Prefecture, Japan. This study included 361 males with a mean age of 60.7 years. Dietary fat and fatty acid intakes were evaluated using the brief-type self-administered diet history questionnaire. Reduced kidney function was defined as an estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) <60 mL/min/1.73 m2, while hyperuricemia was defined as a serum uric acid level >7.0 mg/dL. A two-way analysis of covariance showed that saturated fatty acid (p = 0.026), monounsaturated fatty acid (p = 0.014), and polyunsaturated fatty acid (p = 0.022) were significantly lower in the high uric acid group than in the normal uric acid group. In multiple logistic analysis stratified by renal function, lipid intake was negatively associated with hyperuricemia in the low eGFR group. These findings suggest that higher dietary lipid/fatty acid intake may be effective in the prevention and treatment of hyperuricemia in men with CKD.

Abstract
BackgroundTakayasu arteritis (TAK), a granulomatous large vessel vasculitis, mainly involves the aorta and its proximal branches and commonly occurs in young females. However, studies of pregnancy in women with TAK are sparse and limited, probably due to the rarity of the disease.ObjectivesThe purpose of this study was to understand the status quo of medical treatments of the primary disease and outcomes of pregnancy in patients with TAK, and birth outcomes of the children in Japan.MethodsPatients with TAK who conceived after the onset of the disease and were managed at medical facilities participating in the Japan Research Committee of the Ministry of Health, Labour, and Welfare for Intractable Vasculitis (JPVAS) were retrospectively enrolled in this study. The following information was collected from patients who had a live-born baby: age at diagnosis of TAK, disease classification, age at delivery, treatments before and during pregnancy, complications during pregnancy, birth outcomes of the children, and changes in disease activity during pregnancy and after delivery.ResultsFifty-one cases and 69 pregnancies from 19 ethics committee-approved centers were enrolled during the study period 2019–2021. Of these, 49 cases and 66 pregnancies (95.7%) resulted in delivery and live-born babies. The Numano classification of the 49 cases was as follows: type I, 11; type IIa, 15; type IIb,12; type III, 1; type IV, 1; type V, 9; with type IIa being the most common. The age of diagnosis was 22 years (13–37 years, year of diagnosis 1965–2017), the median age of the delivery of 66 pregnancies was 31 years (year of delivery 1969-2021), and the median duration of illness at delivery was nine years. There were 34 planned pregnancies (51.5%, including four pregnancies by artificial insemination/ovulation induction). Preconception therapy included prednisolone (PSL) in 51 pregnancies (77.3%, median dose 7.5 mg (range 4–30 mg)/day), immunosuppressive drugs in 18 pregnancies (27.3%, azathioprine 8, tacrolimus 7, methotrexate 4, cyclosporin A 1, and colchicine 1), biologics in 12 pregnancies (18.1%, infliximab 6, tocilizumab 5, and adalimumab 1), antihypertensive drugs in 5 pregnancies (7.6%). Surgical treatment had been performed before pregnancy in 6 cases (aortic root replacement 2, subclavian artery dilatation 1, subclavian artery bypass 1, subclavian artery stenting 1, and ascending aorta semicircular artery replacement 1). Medications used during the course of pregnancy included PSL in 48 pregnancies (72.7%, median dose 8 mg (range 4–30 mg)/day, increased in 13 pregnancies, decreased in 1 pregnancy), immunosuppressants in 13 pregnancies (19.7%, azathioprine 6, tacrolimus 6, and cyclosporin A 1), biologics 9 pregnancies (13.6%, infliximab 4, tocilizumab 4, and adalimumab 1). Immunosuppressants and biologics were discontinued in five and four pregnancies after conception. Complications during pregnancy were observed in 20 pregnancies (30.3%), with hypertension being the most common. Complications related to TAK or its treatment were severe infections in two pregnancies and aneurysm enlargement due to increased circulating plasma volume in one pregnancy. Aortic arch replacement was performed after delivery for the latter case. Relapse of TAK was observed in 4 pregnancies (6.1%) during pregnancy and in 8 pregnancies (12.1%) after delivery. One pregnancy resulted in restenosis of subclavian artery for which dilatation procedure was performed prior to the pregnancy. There were 13/66 (19.7%) preterm infants and 17/59 (28.8%) low birth weight infants; all but one had a birth weight of more than 2,000 g and no had serious postnatal abnormalities. Forty-three (82.7%) of the 52 confirmed infants were breastfeed fully or mixed.ConclusionMost of the pregnancies in patients with TAK were successfully delivered while they had low disease activity at a dose of less than 10 mg/day of PSL. Relapse occurred during pregnancy and after delivery in some cases. The babies tended to have low birth weight, but 82.7% of them were breastfed without serious complications.Disclosure of InterestsTakako Miyamae: None declared, Yusuke Manabe: None declared, takahiko sugihara Speakers bureau: TS has received honoraria from Abbvie Japan Co., Ltd., AsahiKASEI Co., Ltd., Astellas Pharma Inc., Ayumi Pharmaceutical, Bristol Myers Squibb K.K., Chugai Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd., Eli Lilly Japan K.K., Mitsubishi-Tanabe Pharma Co., Ono Pharmaceutical, Pfizer Japan Inc., Takeda Pharmaceutical Co.

Abstract
Although chronic pain (CP) is classified as inflammatory or non-inflammatory, the involvement of fatty acid intake in this process has not yet been examined in detail. Therefore, the present study investigated whether the relationship between CP and fatty acid intake differs between high and low C-reactive protein (CRP) levels in middle-aged and elderly individuals in the Shika study. One-thousand and seven males and 1216 females with mean ages of 68⋅78 and 69⋅65 years, respectively, participated in the present study. CRP was quantified by blood sampling from participants who responded to a CP questionnaire. The brief-type self-administered diet history questionnaire (BDHQ) was used to assess fatty acid intake. Interactions were observed between CP and CRP on monounsaturated fatty acids (MUFA) and eicosadienoic acid in a two-way analysis of covariance adjusted for sex, age, lack of exercise, lack of sleep, current smoking and drinking status, and BMI. MUFA (OR 1⋅359) and eicosadienoic acid (OR 1⋅072) were identified as significant independent variables for CP in a multiple logistic regression analysis, but only in the low CRP group. Only a high intake of MUFA and eicosadienoic acid was associated with chronic neck/shoulder/upper limb pain without elevated CRP. In psychogenic and neuropathic pain without elevated CRP, an increased intake of MUFA and eicosadienoic acid, a family member of n -6 fatty acids, appears to affect CP. Further longitudinal studies are needed to elucidate this relationship.

Abstract
Chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients have been advised to take vitamins; however, the effects have been controversial. The individual differences in developing CKD might involve genetic variants of inflammation, including variant rs883484 located upstream of the prostaglandin-endoperoxide synthase 1 (PTGS1) gene. We aimed to identify whether the 12 dietary vitamin intake interacts with genotypes of the rs883484 on developing CKD. The population-based, cross-sectional study had 684 Japanese participants (≥40 years old). The study used a validated, brief, self-administered diet history questionnaire to estimate the intake of the dietary vitamins. CKD was defined as estimated glomerular filtration < 60 mL/min/1.73 m2. The study participants had an average age of 62.1 ± 10.8 years with 15.4% minor homozygotes of rs883484, and 114 subjects had CKD. In the fully adjusted model, the higher intake of vitamins, namely niacin (odds ratio (OR) = 0.74, 95% confidence interval (CI): 0.57−0.96, p = 0.024), α-tocopherol (OR = 0.49, 95% CI: 0.26−0.95, p = 0.034), and vitamin C (OR = 0.97, 95% CI: 0.95−1.00, p = 0.037), was independently associated with lower CKD tendency in the minor homozygotes of rs883484. The results suggested the importance of dietary vitamin intake in the prevention of CKD in middle-aged to older-aged Japanese with minor homozygous of rs883484 gene variant.

Abstract
Background Previous studies examined the association between chronic pain (CP) and serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25(OH)D) concentrations; however, the findings obtained were inconsistent. Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP) associated with the transcriptional activity of the vitamin D receptor (VDR) gene may influence the association of 25(OH)D levels with CP. We aimed to clarify the association between CP, serum 25(OH)D concentration, and SNPs. Methods In the Shika study, we performed a cross-sectional analysis of 551 participants older than 40 years who were asked whether they had been having persistent pain lasting for at least 3 months in any part of the body on a self-administered questionnaire. Serum 25(OH)D concentrations were assessed as a biomarker of the vitamin D status using a radioimmunoassay. rs731236, rs7975232, rs1544410, rs2228570, and rs11568820 were identified using peripheral blood samples, and participants were assigned to those with or without the minor allele for each SNP. Results The prevalence of CP was 37.2%. We observed a tendency for lower 25(OH)D levels in participants with CP than in those without CP in the hetero/minor group of rs11568820, which is a polymorphism within the CDX2-binding site in the 1e promoter region of the VDR gene. Furthermore, a logistic regression analysis revealed that lower serum 25(OH)D concentrations were significantly associated with CP in the hetero/minor group, but not in the major group. Conclusion These results suggest that sufficient serum 25(OH)D concentration reduces the risk of CP in individuals with the minor allele of the CDX2 polymorphism.

Abstract
Paired box 2 (Pax2) is a transcription factor essential for kidney development and is reactivated in proximal tubular epithelial cells (PTECs) during recovery from kidney injury. However, the role of Pax2 in this process is still unknown. Here the role of Pax2 reactivation during injury was examined in the proliferation of PTECs using an ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI) mouse model. Kidney proximal tubule-specific Pax2 conditional knockout mice were generated by mating kidney androgen-regulated protein-Cre and Pax2 flox mice. The degree of cell proliferation and fibrosis was assessed and a Pax2 inhibitor (EG1) was used to evaluate the role of Pax2 in the hypoxic condition of cultured PTECs (O2 5%, 24 hours). The number of Pax2-positive cells and Pax2 mRNA increased after IRI. Sirius red staining indicated that the area of interstitial fibrosis was significantly larger in knockout mice 14 days after IRI. The number of Ki-67-positive cells (an index of proliferation) was significantly lower in knockout than in wild-type mice after IRI, whereas the number of TUNEL-positive cells (an index of apoptotic cells) was significantly higher in knockout mice four days after IRI. Expression analyses of cell cycle-related genes showed that cyclin-dependent kinase 4 (CDK4) was significantly less expressed in the Pax2 knockout mice. In vitro data showed that the increase in CDK4 mRNA and protein expression induced by hypoxia was attenuated by EG1. Thus, Pax2 reactivation may be involved in PTEC proliferation by activating CDK4, thereby limiting kidney fibrosis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Recent studies revealed the connection between amino acid chirality and diseases. We previously reported that the gut microbiota produced various D-amino acids in a murine acute kidney injury (AKI) model. Here, we further explore the pathophysiological role of D-Alanine (Ala) in AKI. METHODS We analyzed the transcripts of the N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptor, a receptor for D-Ala, in tubular epithelial cells (TECs). Then, the therapeutic effect of D-Ala was assessed in vivo and in vitro. Lastly, the plasma level of D-Ala was evaluated in AKI patients. RESULTS The Grin genes encoding NMDA receptor subtypes were expressed in TECs. Hypoxia condition changes the gene expressions of Grin1, Grin2A and Grin2B. D-Ala protected TECs from hypoxia-related cell injury and induced proliferation after hypoxia. These protective effects are associated with the chirality of D-Ala. D-Ala inhibits ROS production and improves mitochondrial membrane potential, through NMDA receptor signaling. The ratio of D-Ala/L-Ala was increased in feces, plasma, and urine after the induction of I/R. Moreover, enterobacteriaceae, such as Escherichia coli, Klebsiella oxytoca produced D-Ala. The oral administration of D-Ala ameliorated kidney injury after I/R induction in mice. The deficiency of NMDA subunit NR1 on tubular cell worsened kidney damage in AKI. In addition, the plasma level of D-Ala was increased and reflected the level of renal function in AKI patients. CONCLUSIONS D-Ala has protective effects on I/R-induced kidney injury. Moreover, the plasma level of D-Ala reflects the eGFR in AKI patients. D-Ala could be a promising therapeutic target and potential biomarker for AKI.

Abstract
Objectives The β3‐adrenergic receptor (ADRB3) gene polymorphism has been implicated in obesity. Therefore, the contribution of ADRB3 Trp64Arg polymorphism to obesity‐related indicators was investigated, taking into account the lifestyle‐related factors in a Japanese rural population. Methods A total of 600 Japanese adults aged ≥40 years in a population‐based cohort study were analyzed. The ADRB3 polymorphism was determined using peripheral blood samples. Associations between genotype and body mass index (BMI), waist circumference (WC), and body fat (BF) percentage were examined, adjusting for lifestyle‐related factors, including daily nutrient intake. Results The frequency of Arg64 allele carriers was 36%. There was no significant difference in BMI, WC, or BF between the groups with or without the Trp64Arg polymorphism. Multivariable logistic regression analysis showed that the Trp64Arg polymorphism was not associated with these three indicators, but lifestyle factors including physical inactivity, higher energy and sodium consumption, and less animal protein intake were significantly related to increased WC and BF percentages. Conclusions The Trp64Arg polymorphism of ADRB3 gene did not contribute to increased BMI, WC, or BF. However, lifestyle‐related factors impacted these indicators in middle‐aged and older Japanese individuals living in rural areas.

Abstract
We herein report a 36-year-old man with repeated necrotizing lymphadenitis due to MEFV gene mutations. The patient's chief complaints were a fever and painful cervical lymphadenopathy. We diagnosed him with necrotizing lymphadenitis based on the pathological findings of the lymph nodes and the exclusion of other differential diseases. The same episode recurred four times. We speculated the involvement of autoinflammatory backgrounds and detected MEFV gene mutations of E148Q (homo), P369S, and R408Q. Considering the elevation of interleukin-18, these mutations probably played roles in the repeated necrotizing lymphadenitis.

Abstract
Background In recent years, many studies have focused on the intestinal environment to elucidate pathogenesis of various diseases, including kidney diseases. Impairment of the intestinal barrier function, the "leaky gut," reportedly contributes to pathological processes in some disorders. Mitochondrial antiviral signaling protein (MAVS), a component of innate immunity, maintains intestinal integrity. The effects of disrupted intestinal homeostasis associated with MAVS signaling in diabetic kidney disease remains unclear. Methods To evaluate the contribution of intestinal barrier impairment to kidney injury under diabetic conditions, we induced diabetic kidney disease in wild-type and MAVS knockout mice through unilateral nephrectomy and streptozotocin treatment. We then assessed effects on the kidney, intestinal injuries, and bacterial translocation. Results MAVS knockout diabetic mice showed more severe glomerular and tubular injuries compared with wild-type diabetic mice. Owing to impaired intestinal integrity, the presence of intestine-derived Klebsiella oxytoca and elevated IL-17 were detected in the circulation and kidneys of diabetic mice, especially in diabetic MAVS knockout mice. Stimulation of tubular epithelial cells with K. oxytoca activated MAVS pathways and the phosphorylation of Stat3 and ERK1/2, leading to the production of kidney injury molecule-1 (KIM-1). Nevertheless, MAVS inhibition induced inflammation in the intestinal epithelial cells and KIM-1 production in tubular epithelial cells under K. oxytoca supernatant or IL-17 stimulation. Treatment with neutralizing anti-IL-17 antibody treatment had renoprotective effects. In contrast, lipopolysaccharide administration accelerated kidney injury in the murine diabetic kidney disease model. Conclusions Impaired MAVS signaling both in the kidney and intestine contributes to the disrupted homeostasis, leading to diabetic kidney disease progression. Controlling intestinal homeostasis may offer a novel therapeutic approach for this condition.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Few epidemiological studies have been performed to clarify the association between glucose metabolism disorders in early adults (20 years old) and physiological and environmental factors, including body mass index (BMI) in junior high school days. Therefore, we examined the association between hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) level and body size (BMI) in early adulthood and lifestyles, including sleep habits and BMI in junior high school days in Shika town, a small town in Japan, by conducting a retrospective cohort study. METHODS We examined the HbA1c levels and body size (BMI) of 99 early adults who turned 20 years old between 2016 and 2020 and were residing in Shika town, Ishikawa Prefecture. We obtained the information on lifestyles and living environment factors, including BMI, from a questionnaire survey conducted among the subjects during their junior high school days (13-15 years old) from 2009 to 2013. RESULTS No correlations were observed between the HbA1c levels and the BMI values of the early adults. A two-way analysis of covariance (with the HbA1c levels and BMI values of the early adults as main factors) of the body size and lifestyle habits of the junior high school students revealed that "sleep quality in junior high school" was significantly poorer in the high HbA1c group than in the low HbA1c group in the early adults with high BMI values only. This result was also supported by the logistic regression analysis result. CONCLUSIONS The present results indicate that poor sleep quality in junior high school was associated with the high HbA1c levels of the early adults with higher BMI values, which suggests that good sleep quality in junior high school prevents the development of hyperglycemia. However, the present study did not find any relationship between early-adult BMI and HbA1c level.

Abstract
Although alcohol intake is associated with chronic pain (CP) and analgesia, epidemiological studies have not yet examined the factors affecting the relationship between alcohol intake and CP in detail. Therefore, the present cross-sectional study investigated the relationship between alcohol intake and CP in community-dwelling middle-aged and elderly individuals with/without depressive symptoms. Participants comprised 2223 inhabitants of Shika town in Ishikawa prefecture, located on the Noto Peninsula facing the Sea of Japan, and included 1007 males and 1216 females. CP, depressive symptoms, and alcohol intake were assessed using a CP questionnaire, the Geriatric Depression Scale-15 and the brief-type self-administered diet history questionnaire, respectively. In males without depressive symptoms, mean alcohol intake was significantly higher at 5.70% energy (27.92 g/day) in the CP group than that of 3.75% energy (20.00 g/day) in the non-CP group. The prevalence of low back/knee pain was also significantly higher in males with than in those without depressive symptoms. The present results suggest that long-term alcohol intake is related to CP by reducing the pain threshold and enhancing nociceptive pain as a possible mechanism. However, even a low alcohol intake was associated with psychogenic pain in participants with depressive symptoms. Further studies to investigate the involvement of depressive symptoms and alcohol intake in CP and its prevention are needed.

Abstract
The full-length receptor for advanced glycation end products (RAGE) is a multiligand pattern recognition receptor. High-mobility group box 1 (HMGB1) is a RAGE ligand of damage-associated molecular patterns that elicits inflammatory reactions. The shedded isoform of RAGE and endogenous secretory RAGE (esRAGE), a splice variant, are soluble isoforms (sRAGE) that act as organ-protective decoys. However, the pathophysiologic roles of RAGE/sRAGE in acute kidney injury (AKI) remain unclear. We found that AKI was more severe, with enhanced renal tubular damage, macrophage infiltration, and fibrosis, in mice lacking both RAGE and sRAGE than in wild-type control mice. Using murine tubular epithelial cells (TECs), we demonstrated that hypoxia upregulated messenger RNA (mRNA) expression of HMGB1 and tumor necrosis factor α (TNF-α), whereas RAGE and esRAGE expressions were paradoxically decreased. Moreover, the addition of recombinant sRAGE canceled hypoxia-induced inflammation and promoted cell viability in cultured TECs. sRAGE administration prevented renal tubular damage in models of ischemia/reperfusion-induced AKI and of anti-glomerular basement membrane (anti-GBM) glomerulonephritis. These results suggest that sRAGE is a novel therapeutic option for AKI.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Low molecular weight compounds that reduce the expression of MMP13 at the mRNA level might serve as disease-modifying osteoarthritis (OA) drugs (DMOADs). The objective of this study was to identify a candidate DMOAD that targets MMP13 expression. DESIGN High-throughput screening was performed to identify compounds that suppress inflammatory cytokine-induced MMP13 expression. Ingenuity pathway analysis (IPA) using isobaric tags for relative and absolute quantification (iTRAQ)-based proteomic analysis was conducted to identify signaling pathways related to cytokines. MMP13 expression in chondrocytes was evaluated through RT-qPCR and western blotting analyses. Additionally, 10-week-old mice were subjected to destabilization of the medial meniscus (DMM) surgery to induce OA and were sacrificed 12 weeks post-surgery for pathological examination. OA was evaluated using the OARSI scoring system. RESULTS Colchicine was identified as a DMOAD candidate as it inhibited inflammatory cytokine-induced MMP13 expression in vitro, and the colchicine-administered mice with DMM presented significantly lower OARSI scores (adjusted P: 0.0242, mean difference: 1.6, 95% confidence interval (CI) of difference: 0.1651-3.035) and significantly lower synovial membrane inflammation scores (adjusted P: 0.0243, mean difference: 0.6, 95% CI of difference: 0.06158-1.138) than mice with DMM. IPA further revealed that components of the Rho signaling pathways are regulated by cytokines and colchicine. IL-1β and TNF-α activate RAC1 and SRC signals, respectively, leading to the phosphorylation of PLC-γ1 and synergistic induction of MMP13 expression. Most notably, colchicine abrogates inflammatory cytokine-induced phosphorylation of PLC-γ1, leading to the induction of MMP13 expression. CONCLUSIONS Colchicine is a potential DMOAD candidate that inhibits MMP13 expression and consequent cartilage degradation by disrupting the SRC/RAC1-phospho-PLCγ1-Ca2+ signaling pathway.

Abstract
Background Progression of renal anemia has been shown to be associated with advanced renal tubulointerstitial lesions. This retrospective study investigated the impact of lower hemoglobin (Hb) levels and renal interstitial fibrosis and tubular atrophy (IFTA) on long-term outcomes in type 2 diabetes with biopsy-proven diabetic nephropathy. Methods A total of 233 patients were enrolled. The severity of IFTA was scored according to the classification by the Renal Pathology Society. Patients were stratified according to baseline Hb tertiles by IFTA status. The outcomes were the first occurrence of renal events (requirement for dialysis or 50 % decline in estimated glomerular filtration rate from baseline) and all-cause mortality. Results At baseline, 151 patients had severe IFTA. There were no patients who have been received erythropoiesis-stimulating agents at the time of renal biopsy. The severity of IFTA was the independent pathological factor of lower Hb levels. During the mean follow-up period of 8.6 years (maximum, 32.4 years), 119 renal events and 42 deaths were observed. Compared with the combined influence of the highest tertile of Hb and mild IFTA, the risks of renal events were higher for the middle tertile and for the lowest tertile of Hb in severe IFTA, whereas the risk of renal events was higher for the lowest tertile of Hb in mild IFTA. The risk of mortality was higher for the lowest tertile of Hb only in severe IFTA. There were significant interactions of tertile of Hb and IFTA in renal events and mortality. Conclusions Impacts of lower Hb levels on long-term outcomes of diabetic nephropathy were greater in severe IFTA than in mild IFTA.

Abstract
A polymorphism in the ADRB3 gene (Trp64Arg) has been associated with obesity, insulin resistance, and hypertension. This cross-sectional study investigated the relationships among this polymorphism, hypertension, and insulin resistance values (HOMA-IR) in 719 Japanese subjects aged 40 years and older. The genotype frequencies of Trp64Trp (homozygous, wild), Trp64Arg (heterozygous, variant), and Arg64Arg (homozygous, variant) were 466 (65%), 233 (32%), and 20 (3%), respectively. Insulin resistance was associated with an increased risk of hypertension in a Japanese population. This relationship was dependent on the presence or absence of the Trp64Arg polymorphism (odds ratio, 2.054; confidence interval, 1.191 to 3.541; P value, 0.010). Therefore, the Trp64Arg polymorphism of ADRB3 was associated with hypertension and insulin resistance in a healthy Japanese population. This relationship, which was dependent on the polymorphism, may predict the development of hypertension and diabetes.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Data on the association between longitudinal trajectory patterns of albuminuria and subsequent end-stage kidney disease (ESKD) and all-cause mortality in diabetic kidney disease (DKD) are sparse. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS Drawing on nationally representative data of 329 patients with biopsy-proven DKD and an estimated glomerular filtration rate above 30 mL/min/1.73 m2 at the time of biopsy, we used joint latent class mixed models to identify different 2-year trajectory patterns of urine albumin to creatinine ratio (UACR) and assessed subsequent rates of competing events: ESKD and all-cause death. RESULTS A total of three trajectory groups of UACR were identified: 'high-increasing' group (n=254; 77.2%), 'high-decreasing' group (n=24; 7.3%), and 'low-stable' group (n=51; 15.5%). The 'low-stable' group had the most favorable risk profile, including the baseline UACR (median (IQR) UACR (mg/g creatinine): 'low-stable', 109 (50-138); 'high-decreasing', 906 (468-1740); 'high-increasing', 1380 (654-2502)), and had the least subsequent risk of ESKD and all-cause death among the groups. Although there were no differences in baseline characteristics between the 'high-decreasing' group and the 'high-increasing' group, the 'high-decreasing' group had better control over blood pressure, blood glucose, and total cholesterol levels during the first 2 years of follow-up, and the incidence rates of subsequent ESKD and all-cause death were lower in the 'high-decreasing' group compared with the 'high-increasing' group (incidence rate of ESKD (per 1000 person-years): 32.7 vs 77.4, p=0.014; incidence rate of all-cause death (per 1000 person-years): 0.0 vs 25.4, p=0.007). CONCLUSIONS Dynamic changes in albuminuria are associated with subsequent ESKD and all-cause mortality in DKD. Reduction in albuminuria by improving risk profile may decrease the risk of ESKD and all-cause death.

Abstract
To make the Japanese version of the CESD-R—a revised version of the Center for Epidemiologic Studies depression scale (CES-D)—in the assessment of depressive symptoms in a general population. The English version of CESD-R was translated into Japanese, and back-translated into English by three native speakers of Japanese and English; then, we selected the version most completely consistent with the original items. The CESD-R was applied to 398 community-dwelling people (191 men: 48.0%, and 207 women: 52.0%) who were over 40 years old. The Japanese version of the CES-D was also carried out in the same population. Factor analysis was performed. Additionally, the correlations between the CESD-R and CES-D results were identified. The CESD-R scores showed a significantly positive correlation with CES-D scores (r = 0.74, p < 0.0005). Analysis of the CESD-R yielded a Cronbach’s alpha result of 0.90. Factor analysis revealed one principal factor in the CESD-R, whereas the original CES-D had two factors because of reversed items. The Japanese version of the CESD-R appears to have the reliability to be applicable for assessing depressive symptoms in population-based samples. However, because the Japanese expressions for some items might be unusual, our study population was also limited; further studies on other populations and on incorporating improved Japanese terminology will be needed.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The revision of International Society of Nephrology/Renal Pathology Society (ISN/RPS) classification guidelines for lupus nephritis (LN) was suggested by a working group, who recommended a modified National Institute of Health (NIH) activity and chronicity scoring system to evaluate active and chronic LN lesions. However, whether this approach was useful for estimating long-term prognosis for LN patients is unclear. METHODS We conducted a retrospective cohort study in Japanese subjects with biopsy-proven LN, between 1977 and 2018. Pathologic lesions were evaluated based on ISN/RPS 2003 classifications and the modified NIH scoring system. Patients were grouped by activity index (low, 0-5; moderate, 6-11; high, 12-24), and chronicity index (low, 0-2; moderate, 3-5; high, 6-12). The primary outcome was a composite of end-stage kidney disease (ESKD) or all-cause death, and the secondary outcome was ESKD alone. RESULTS Sixty-six subjects with a median age of 31 years were included. During median follow-up (11.5 years), 15 patients reached the primary outcome: 10 had ESKD, four had died, and one had ESKD and died. Kaplan-Meier analysis showed that the cumulative primary outcome incidence increased with a higher chronicity index (log-rank trend p < 0.001). From multivariable survival analysis, moderate (hazard ratio [HR] 6.17, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.14 to 33.20; p = 0.034) and high chronicity indices (HR 20.20, 95% CI 1.13 to 359.82; p = 0.041) were risk factors for the primary outcome. CONCLUSION Moderate and high chronicity indices were associated with an increased ESKD risk for LN.
