Abstract
A collection of U(∈N) data vectors is called a U-tuple, and the association strength among the vectors of a tuple is termed as the hyperlink weight, that is assumed to be symmetric with respect to permutation of the entries in the index. We herein propose Bregman hyperlink regression (BHLR), which learns a user-specified symmetric similarity function such that it predicts the tuple's hyperlink weight from data vectors stored in the U-tuple. BHLR is a simple and general framework for hyper-relational learning, that minimizes Bregman-divergence (BD) between the hyperlink weights and estimated similarities defined for the corresponding tuples; BHLR encompasses various existing methods, such as logistic regression (U=1), Poisson regression (U=1), link prediction (U=2), and those for representation learning, such as graph embedding (U=2), matrix factorization (U=2), tensor factorization (U≥2), and their variants equipped with arbitrary BD. Nonlinear functions (e.g., neural networks), can be employed for the similarity functions. However, there are theoretical challenges such that some of different tuples of BHLR may share data vectors therein, unlike the i.i.d. setting of classical regression. We address these theoretical issues, and proved that BHLR equipped with arbitrary BD and U∈N is (P-1) statistically consistent, that is, it asymptotically recovers the underlying true conditional expectation of hyperlink weights given data vectors, and (P-2) computationally tractable, that is, it is efficiently computed by stochastic optimization algorithms using a novel generalized minibatch sampling procedure for hyper-relational data. Consequently, theoretical guarantees for BHLR including several existing methods, that have been examined experimentally, are provided in a unified manner.

Abstract
Background Combination therapy with oral fluoropyrimidine and irinotecan has not yet been established as first-line treatment of metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC). We carried out a randomized, open-label, phase III trial to determine whether S-1 and irinotecan plus bevacizumab is noninferior to mFOLFOX6 or CapeOX plus bevacizumab in terms of progression-free survival (PFS). Patients and methods Patients from 53 institutions who had previously untreated mCRC were randomly assigned (1 : 1) to receive either mFOLFOX6 or CapeOX plus bevacizumab (control group) or S-1 and irinotecan plus bevacizumab (experimental group; a 3-week regimen: intravenous infusions of irinotecan 150 mg/m2 and bevacizumab 7.5 mg/kg on day 1, oral S-1 80 mg/m2 twice daily for 2 weeks, followed by a 1-week rest; or a 4-week regimen: irinotecan 100 mg/m2 and bevacizumab 5 mg/kg on days 1 and 15, S-1 80 mg/m2 twice daily for 2 weeks, followed by a 2-week rest). The primary end point was PFS. The noninferiority margin was 1.25; noninferiority would be established if the upper limit of the 95% confidence interval (CI) for the hazard ratio (HR) of the control group versus the experimental group was less than this margin. Result Between June 2012 and September 2014, 487 patients underwent randomization. Two hundred and forty-three patients assigned to the control group and 241 assigned to the experimental group were included in the primary analysis. Median PFS was 10.8 months (95% CI 9.6-11.6) in the control group and 14.0 months (95% CI 12.4-15.5) in the experimental group (HR 0.84, 95% CI 0.70-1.02; P < 0.0001 for noninferiority, P = 0.0815 for superiority). One hundred and fifty-seven patients (64.9%) in the control group and 140 (58.6%) in the experimental group had adverse events of grade 3 or higher. Conclusion S-1 and irinotecan plus bevacizumab is noninferior to mFOLFOX6 or CapeOX plus bevacizumab with respect to PFS as first-line treatment of mCRC and could be a new standard treatment. Clinical trials number UMIN000007834.

Abstract
Complex network growth across diverse fields of science is hypothesized to be driven in the main by a combination of preferential attachment and node fitness processes. For measuring the respective influences of these processes, previous approaches make strong and untested assumptions on the functional forms of either the preferential attachment function or fitness function or both. We introduce a Bayesian statistical method called PAFit to estimate preferential attachment and node fitness without imposing such functional constraints that works by maximizing a log-likelihood function with suitably added regularization terms. We use PAFit to investigate the interplay between preferential attachment and node fitness processes in a Facebook wall-post network. While we uncover evidence for both preferential attachment and node fitness, thus validating the hypothesis that these processes together drive complex network evolution, we also find that node fitness plays the bigger role in determining the degree of a node. This is the first validation of its kind on real-world network data. But surprisingly the rate of preferential attachment is found to deviate from the conventional log-linear form when node fitness is taken into account. The proposed method is implemented in the R package PAFit.

Abstract
Preferential attachment is a stochastic process that has been proposed to explain certain topological features characteristic of complex networks from diverse domains. The systematic investigation of preferential attachment is an important area of research in network science, not only for the theoretical matter of verifying whether this hypothesized process is operative in real-world networks, but also for the practical insights that follow from knowledge of its functional form. Here we describe a maximum likelihood based estimation method for the measurement of preferential attachment in temporal complex networks. We call the method PAFit, and implement it in an R package of the same name. PAFit constitutes an advance over previous methods primarily because we based it on a nonparametric statistical framework that enables attachment kernel estimation free of any assumptions about its functional form. We show this results in PAFit outperforming the popular methods of Jeong and Newman in Monte Carlo simulations. What is more, we found that the application of PAFit to a publically available Flickr social network dataset yielded clear evidence for a deviation of the attachment kernel from the popularly assumed log-linear form. Independent of our main work, we provide a correction to a consequential error in Newman’s original method which had evidently gone unnoticed since its publication over a decade ago.

Abstract
573 Background: Activating mutation of the KRAS gene is a predictive biomarker for loss of efficacy to anti-EGFR antibody therapy. However, this was mainly established by the evidences of Caucasian studies. Then, this prospective study investigated the role of KRAS mutations on efficacy and safety to cetuximab plus irinotecan in Japanese patients with metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC). Methods: We conducted a prospective study to analyze objective response to cetuximab plus irinotecan in molecularly defined KRAS wild-type (WT) or mutant subgroups of chemotherapy-refractory mCRC. KRAS mutations were detected by direct sequence on DNA from formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded tissue of patients treated in 11 centers in Japan. Additional EGFR related genes such as BRAF, PIK3CA etc. and antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity related polymorphism in FCγRIIa and RIIIa genes were also examined. Results: Forty-three patients were enrolled. KRAS mutations were found in 31.7% of 41 eligible patients. Response rate (RR) to cetuximab plus irinotecan, the primary endpoint of the study, was 17.9% and 0% for the patients with tumor harboring WT and mutant KRAS, respectively. No significant differences in toxicity were observed between the KRAS WT and mutant groups. Detail statistical analyses are ongoing. Conclusions: We confirmed that KRAS status is a useful predictive maker for the efficacy to cetuximab plus irinotecan therapy in Japanese mCRC patients, even though the response rate in the KRAS WT group was lower than expected.

Abstract
496 Background: Sequential combination with irinotecan (CPT-11) and S-1 (IRIS) is active and safe regimen against mCRC (ASCO2008, abstract #4107, T. Yoshioka et al. Br J Cancer 101: 1972-77, 2009). The aim of this prospective randomized pilot study was to compare safety (CTCAE v3.0, primary endpoint) and efficacy (RR and PFS, secondary endpoint) of IRIS with mFOLFIRI when these were used with BV. Methods: Sixty pts with mCRC were randomized to compare 30 pts for IRIS+BV (CPT-11 150 mg/m2 infusion on day 1, S-1 80 mg/m2 orally on day 3-16, q3w) with 30 pts for mFOLFIRI+BV (CPT-11 150mg/m2). 57 pts (IRIS arm 29, mFOLFIRI arm 28) were evaluable. Most of them were treated as first-line therapy. Results: Background of pts was well balanced among two arms. Although G3/4 hematological AEs profiles were similar between two arms, G2-4 neutropenia was significantly lower in IRIS arm than mFOLFIRI arm (56.6%, vs. 88.9%, p=0.01, χ2test). Among G3/4 nonhematological AEs, gastrointestinal toxicities were lower in IRIS arm than mFOLFIRI arm (anorexia: 3.5% vs. 17.9%, nausea: 0% vs. 7.1%, diarrhea: 6.9% vs. 14.3%, stomatitis: 0% vs. 3.6%). By χ2 test, nausea, vomiting and hair loss were significantly lower in IRIS arm than mFOLFIRI arm (p<0.05). GI-perforation, a BV-related severe AE, occurred in 2 pts only from mFOLFIRI arm and one of them was died as TRD. RRs (institutional evaluation) were 58.6% in IRIS (CR 2, PR 15, SD 11, and PD 1) and 55.1% in mFOLFIRI arm (CR 0, PR 16, SD 10, PD 2, and not evaluable 1). Our independent review committee will clarified definite RR and median PFS near future. Conclusions: Our IRIS+BV regimen is well tolerated, effective and appears to be a promising choice for pts with mCRC. [Table: see text]

Abstract
The problem of reconstructing large-scale, gene regulatory networks from gene expression data has garnered considerable attention in bioinformatics over the past decade with the graphical modeling paradigm having emerged as a popular framework for inference. Analysis in a full Bayesian setting is contingent upon the assignment of a so-called structure prior—a probability distribution on networks, encoding a priori biological knowledge either in the form of supplemental data or high-level topological features. A key topological consideration is that a wide range of cellular networks are approximately scale-free, meaning that the fraction, , of nodes in a network with degree is roughly described by a power-law with exponent between and . The standard practice, however, is to utilize a random structure prior, which favors networks with binomially distributed degree distributions. In this paper, we introduce a scale-free structure prior for graphical models based on the formula for the probability of a network under a simple scale-free network model. Unlike the random structure prior, its scale-free counterpart requires a node labeling as a parameter. In order to use this prior for large-scale network inference, we design a novel Metropolis-Hastings sampler for graphical models that includes a node labeling as a state space variable. In a simulation study, we demonstrate that the scale-free structure prior outperforms the random structure prior at recovering scale-free networks while at the same time retains the ability to recover random networks. We then estimate a gene association network from gene expression data taken from a breast cancer tumor study, showing that scale-free structure prior recovers hubs, including the previously unknown hub SLC39A6, which is a zinc transporter that has been implicated with the spread of breast cancer to the lymph nodes. Our analysis of the breast cancer expression data underscores the value of the scale-free structure prior as an instrument to aid in the identification of candidate hub genes with the potential to direct the hypotheses of molecular biologists, and thus drive future experiments.

Abstract
Background: Both irinotecan (CPT-11) and S-1 are active against colorectal cancer; however, as S-1 is a prodrug of 5-fluorouracil (5-FU), 5-FU and its metabolites might inhibit the antitumour effect of CPT-11. Therefore, we designed a sequential combination, in which CPT-11 infusion was given on day 1 and S-1 was given orally at 80 mg m−2 per day on days 3–16 every 3 weeks. Methods: Twelve patients entered the phase I study, and the recommended doses were determined as a CPT-11 dose of 150 mg m−2 and an S-1 dose of 80 mg m−2. Results: In all, 36 patients entered the phase II study, of whom 4 and 16 had complete and partial responses. The overall response rate was 55.6% (95% confidence interval, 38.1–72.1%), and median progression-free survival was 7.7 months (95% confidence interval, 4.8–12.6 months). Grade 3 neutropenia was the most common haematological toxicity and occurred in 6.5% of 215 treatment courses. Grade 3 non-haematological toxicities included anorexia (1.4%) and diarrhoea (0.9%). There was no grade 4 toxicity of any kind. Conclusion: Our results suggest that this regimen is convenient, safe and promising, compared with conventional regimens for patients with metastatic colorectal cancer.

Abstract
ErbB receptor ligands, epidermal growth factor (EGF) and heregulin (HRG), induce dose-dependent transient and sustained intracellular signaling, proliferation, and differentiation of MCF-7 breast cancer cells, respectively. In an effort to delineate the ligand-specific cell determination mechanism, we investigated time course gene expressions induced by EGF and HRG that induce distinct cellular phenotypes in MCF-7 cells. To analyze independently the effects of ligand dosage and time for gene expression, we developed a statistical method for estimating the two effects. Our results indicated that signal transduction pathways convey quantitative properties of the dose-dependent activation of ErbB receptor to early transcription. The results also implied that moderate changes in the expression levels of a number of genes, not the predominant regulation of a few specific genes, might cooperatively work at the early stage of the transcription for determining cell fate. However, the EGF- and HRG-induced distinct signal durations resulted in the ligand-oriented biphasic induction of proteins after 20 min. The selected gene list and HRG-induced prolonged signaling suggested that transcriptional feedback to the intracellular signaling results in a graded to biphasic response in the cell determination process and that each ErbB receptor is inextricably responsible for the control of amplitude and duration of cellular biochemical reactions.

Abstract
SUMMARY Pvclust is an add-on package for a statistical software R to assess the uncertainty in hierarchical cluster analysis. Pvclust can be used easily for general statistical problems, such as DNA microarray analysis, to perform the bootstrap analysis of clustering, which has been popular in phylogenetic analysis. Pvclust calculates probability values (p-values) for each cluster using bootstrap resampling techniques. Two types of p-values are available: approximately unbiased (AU) p-value and bootstrap probability (BP) value. Multiscale bootstrap resampling is used for the calculation of AU p-value, which has superiority in bias over BP value calculated by the ordinary bootstrap resampling. In addition the computation time can be enormously decreased with parallel computing option.

Abstract
To construct an East Asia mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) phylogeny, we sequenced the complete mitochondrial genomes of 672 Japanese individuals (http://www.giib.or.jp/mtsnp/index_e.html). This allowed us to perform a phylogenetic analysis with a pool of 942 Asiatic sequences. New clades and subclades emerged from the Japanese data. On the basis of this unequivocal phylogeny, we classified 4713 Asian partial mitochondrial sequences, with <10% ambiguity. Applying population and phylogeographic methods, we used these sequences to shed light on the controversial issue of the peopling of Japan. Population-based comparisons confirmed that present-day Japanese have their closest genetic affinity to northern Asian populations, especially to Koreans, which finding is congruent with the proposed Continental gene flow to Japan after the Yayoi period. This phylogeographic approach unraveled a high degree of differentiation in Paleolithic Japanese. Ancient southern and northern migrations were detected based on the existence of basic M and N lineages in Ryukyuans and Ainu. Direct connections with Tibet, parallel to those found for the Y-chromosome, were also apparent. Furthermore, the highest diversity found in Japan for some derived clades suggests that Japan could be included in an area of migratory expansion to Continental Asia. All the theories that have been proposed up to now to explain the peopling of Japan seem insufficient to accommodate fully this complex picture.

Abstract
An approximately unbiased (AU) test that uses a newly devised multiscale bootstrap technique was developed for general hypothesis testing of regions in an attempt to reduce test bias. It was applied to maximum-likelihood tree selection for obtaining the confidence set of trees. The AU test is based on the theory of Efron et al. (Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 93:13429-13434; 1996), but the new method provides higher-order accuracy yet simpler implementation. The AU test, like the Shimodaira-Hasegawa (SH) test, adjusts the selection bias overlooked in the standard use of the bootstrap probability and Kishino-Hasegawa tests. The selection bias comes from comparing many trees at the same time and often leads to overconfidence in the wrong trees. The SH test, though safe to use, may exhibit another type of bias such that it appears conservative. Here I show that the AU test is less biased than other methods in typical cases of tree selection. These points are illustrated in a simulation study as well as in the analysis of mammalian mitochondrial protein sequences. The theoretical argument provides a simple formula that covers the bootstrap probability test, the Kishino-Hasegawa test, the AU test, and the Zharkikh-Li test. A practical suggestion is provided as to which test should be used under particular circumstances.

Abstract
UNLABELLED CONSEL is a program to assess the confidence of the tree selection by giving the p-values for the trees. The main thrust of the program is to calculate the p-value of the Approximately Unbiased (AU) test using the multi-scale bootstrap technique. This p-value is less biased than the other conventional p-values such as the Bootstrap Probability (BP), the Kishino-Hasegawa (KH) test, the Shimodaira-Hasegawa (SH) test, and the Weighted Shimodaira-Hasegawa (WSH) test. CONSEL calculates all these p-values from the output of the phylogeny program packages such as Molphy, PAML, and PAUP*. Furthermore, CONSEL is applicable to a wide class of problems where the BPs are available. AVAILABILITY The programs are written in C language. The source code for Unix and the executable binary for DOS are found at http://www.ism.ac.jp/~shimo/ CONTACT shimo@ism.ac.jp

Abstract
The statistical testing of alternative phylogenetic trees is central to evaluating competing evolutionary hypotheses. Fleming proposed that the New Zealand cicada species Maoricicada iolanthe is the sister species to the major radiation of both low-altitude and montane Maoricicada species. However, using 1,520 bp of mitochondrial DNA sequence data from the cytochrome oxidase subunit I, tRNA aspartic acid, and the ATPase subunit 6 and 8 genes, we inferred that both M. iolanthe and another low-altitude species, Maoricicada campbelli, are nested within the montane Maoricicada radiation. Therefore, we examined the stability of the inferred phylogenetic placement of these two species using the newly developed Shimodaira-Hasegawa test (SH test) implemented in a maximum-likelihood framework. The SH test has two advantages over the more commonly used Kishino-Hasegawa (KH) and Templeton tests. First, the SH test simultaneously compares multiple topologies and corrects the corresponding P: values to accommodate the multiplicity of testing. Second, the SH test is correct when applied to a posteriori hypotheses, unlike the KH test, because it readjusts the expectation of the null hypothesis (that two trees are not different) accordingly. The comparison of P: values estimated under the assumptions of both the KH test and the SH test clearly demonstrate that the KH test has the potential to be misleading when the issue of comparing of a posteriori hypotheses is ignored and when multiple comparisons are not taken into account. The SH test, in combination with a variety of character-weighting schemes applied to our data, reveals a surprising amount of ambiguity in the phylogenetic placement of M. iolanthe and M. campbelli.

Abstract
Short interspersed nuclear elements (SINEs) have been used to generate unambiguous phylogenetic topologies relating eukaryotic taxa. The irreversible nature of SINE retroposition is supported by a large body of comparative genome data and is a fundamental assumption inherent in the value of this qualitative method of inference. Here, we assess the key assumption of unidirectional SINE insertion by comparing the SINE insertion-derived topology and the phylogenetic tree based on seven independent loci of five taxa in the order Cetartiodactyla (Cetacea + Artiodactyla). The data sets and analyses were largely independent, but the loci were, by definition, linked, and thus their consistency supported an irreversible pattern of SINE retroposition. Moreover, our analyses of the flanking sequences provided estimates of divergence times among cetartiodactyl lineages unavailable from SINE insertion analysis alone. Unexpected rate heterogeneity among sites of SINE-flanking sequences and other noncoding DNA sequences were observed. Sequence simulations suggest that this rate heterogeneity may be an artifact resulting from the inaccuracies of the substitution model used.

Abstract
We show how to make appropriate likelihood ratio tests for evolutionary tree models when parameters such as edge (internodes or branches) lengths have nonnegativity constraints. In such cases, under the null model of an edge length being zero, the marginal distribution of this parameter is proven to be a "half-normal", that is, 50% zero values and 50% the positive half of a normal distribution. Other constrained parameters, such as the proportion of invariant sites, give similar results. To make likelihood ratio tests between nested models, e.g., H(0): homogeneous site rates, and H(1): site rates follow a gamma distribution with variance 1/k, then asymptotically as sequence length increases, the distribution under H(0) becomes a mixture of chi distributions, in this case 50% chi(0), and 50% chi(1) (where the subscript denotes degrees of freedom, i.e. , not the usually assumed 100% chi(1); which leads to a conservative test). Such mixtures are sometimes called distributions. Simulations show that even with sequences as short as 125 sites, some parameters, including the proportion of invariant sites, fit asymptotic distributions closely.

Abstract
To evaluate the effects of bone meal powder (BEC) on calcium and phosphorus metabolism, a calcium absorption test was conducted using a preparation of calcium carbonate (CAC) as the control drug. A total of 12 healthy volunteers, consisting of 6 younger (aged 20-29 years, 3 men and 3 women) and 6 older (aged 60-69 years, 3 men and 3 women) persons, were subjected to a double-blinded crossover study. Serum calcium (s-Ca) level significantly increased to 105.3% +/- 1.9% (P < 0.01 vs the basal value; mean +/- SD) from the basal value in the BEC group and to 104.4% +/- 2.7% (P < 0.01) in the CAC group at 3h post load. Urinary excretions of calcium (u-Ca/glomerular filtration rate, u-Ca/GF) after BEC and CAC load rose to 226.6% +/- 154.5% (P < 0.05) and 211.1% +/- 148.0% (P < 0.05), respectively. Serum phosphorus (s-P) levels after BEC load increased to 110.0% +/- 15.1% (P < 0.05), whereas that after CAC load showed no significant change (99.3% +/- 7.9%). On the other hand, urinary excretion of phosphorus (u-P/GF) after CAC load decreased to 60.0% +/- 32.4% (P < 0.01) and that in the BEC group showed no significant change (92.5% +/- 49.5%). The increase in s-Ca led to decrease in serum intact parathyroid hormone (i-PTH) level [77.3% +/- 33.4% (P < 0.05) for BEC and 69.5% +/- 20.3% (P < 0.01) for CAC] although s-P was increased by the BEC load. The responses to BEC and CAC administration were compared in the younger and the older groups. The responses in the younger and the older group showed fundamentally the same trends and to the same extent. However, the changes in serum ionized calcium (i-Ca) and i-PTH levels at 1.5 h post load were significantly smaller in the older group than in the younger group (P < 0.01; P < 0.05). The increment in s-P level after BEC load in the older group was larger than that in the younger group. In conclusion, BEC can modulate not only calcium but also phosphorus metabolism in both younger and older subjects. Further investigations are required to evaluate the effects of BEC on bone density and safety for renal function in long-term observations.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The efficacy of a new chemotherapeutic combination consisting of Cis-diammineglycolatoplatinum (Nedaplatin), a derivative of cisplatin (CDDP), and 5-fluorouracil (5FU) was evaluated in patients with advanced esophageal carcinomas. METHODS Nedaplatin was administered at a dose of 80 or 100 mg/m2 with 500 ml of saline by slow drip infusion for 120 minutes on day 1. 5FU at a dose of 350 or 500 mg/m2 was mixed with 1,000 ml of saline and administered by continuous infusion for 24 hours on days 1 to 5. PATIENTS OR MATERIALS This combination chemotherapy was tried in 17 patients with metastatic, recurrent, or bulky unresectable esophageal cancers. Of these, 15 evaluable patients received at least two courses of chemotherapy. RESULTS The response rates in assessable and all patients were 60% and 52.9%, respectively. Cases with lymph node and liver metastases, as well as primary lesions, showed excellent response to the therapy with positive response rates of 54.5% (6/11), 100% (5/5) and 58.4% (7/12), respectively. The median response duration was 7 (range 3 to 37+) months for patients who achieved a partial response. Adverse drug reactions were limited to three cases of grade 3 toxicity, including allergy, and decreased hemoglobin and platelets, which were well tolerated by the patients. CONCLUSION The present study thus indicated the combination chemotherapy of Nedaplatin and 5FU to be safe and efficacious for advanced esophageal cancer. Further investigations are clearly warranted.

Abstract
Hereditary non-polyposis colorectal cancer (HNPCC; OMIM 120435-6) is a cancer-susceptibility syndrome linked to inherited defects in human mismatch repair (MMR) genes. Germline missense human MLH1 (hMLH1) mutations are frequently detected in HNPCC (ref. 3), making functional characterization of mutations in hMLH1 critical to the development of genetic testing for HNPCC. Here, we describe a new method for detecting mutations in hMLH1 using a dominant mutator effect of hMLH1 cDNA expressed in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. The majority of hMLH1 missense mutations identified in HNPCC patients abolish the dominant mutator effect. Furthermore, PCR amplification of hMLH1 cDNA from mRNA from a HNPCC patient, followed by in vivo recombination into a gap expression vector, allowed detection of a heterozygous loss-of-function missense mutation in hMLH1 using this method. This functional assay offers a simple method for detecting and evaluating pathogenic mutations in hMLH1.
