Abstract
When excited, the magnetization in a magnet precesses around the field in an anticlockwise manner on a timescale governed by viscous magnetization damping, after which any information carried by the initial actuation seems to be lost. This damping appears to be a fundamental bottleneck for the use of magnets in information processing. However, here we demonstrate the recall of the magnetization-precession phase after times that exceed the damping timescale by two orders of magnitude using dedicated two-colour microwave pump-probe experiments for a Y3Fe5O12 microstructured film. Time-resolved magnetization state tomography confirms the persistent magnetic coherence by revealing a double-exponential decay of magnetization correlation. We attribute persistent magnetic coherence to a feedback effect, that is, coherent coupling of the uniform precession with long-lived excitations at the minima of the spin-wave dispersion relation. Our finding liberates magnetic systems from the strong damping in nanostructures that has limited their use in coherent information storage and processing.

Abstract
We experimentally investigate the dynamics of a sphere rolling up a granular slope. During the rolling-up motion, the sphere experiences slipping and penetration (groove formation) on the surface of the granular layer. The former relates to the stuck motion of the rolling sphere, and the latter causes energy dissipation due to the deformation of the granular surface. To characterize these phenomena, we measured the motion of a sphere rolling up a granular slope of angle α. The initial velocity v_{0}, initial angular velocity ω_{0}, angle of slope α, and density of the sphere ρ_{s} were varied. As a result, the penetration depth can be scaled solely by the density ratio between the sphere and granular layer. By considering the rotational equation of motion, we estimate the friction due to the slips. Besides, by considering energy conservation, we define and estimate the friction due to groove formation. Moreover, the translational friction is proportional to the penetration depth. Using these results, we can quantitatively predict the sphere's motion including stuck behavior.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The prognosis of congenital chylothorax and ascites ranges from spontaneous resolution to death, but no established examination exists to predict the prognosis. We aimed to develop a clinically useful method to evaluate lymphatic abnormalities using indocyanine green (ICG) lymphography in infants with congenital chylothorax and ascites. METHODS We retrospectively evaluated infants with congenital chylothorax and chylous ascites who underwent ICG lymphography in our hospital between 2012 and 2022. The ICG lymphography findings was evaluated. We defined the dermal backflow in the trunk as the lymphatic flow from the end of the limb back through the lymphatic vessels on the surface of the trunk. The association between the dermal backflow in the trunk and clinical outcomes, as follows, are investigated: the duration of the drainage period, the duration of endotracheal intubation, and the length of hospital stay. RESULTS Twenty infants had a dermal backflow in the trunk, and ten did not. Clinical outcomes in infants with and without dermal backflow in the trunk were as follows (median): the duration of the drainage period (20 vs. 0 days, p = 0.001), the duration of endotracheal intubation (12 vs. 2 days, p = 0.04), and the length of hospital stay (62 vs. 41 days, p = 0.04), respectively. In multivariate linear regression analysis adjusted for gestational age, the duration of the drainage period was correlated with the dermal backflow in the trunk [exp(B) = 2.62; p = 0.003]. CONCLUSIONS The dermal backflow in the trunk in ICG lymphography was useful in predicting the clinical course of congenital chylothorax and ascites.

Abstract
Polymer network properties such as stiffness often exhibit characteristic power laws in polymer density and other parameters. However, it remains unclear whether diverse animal tissues, composed of many distinct polymers, exhibit such scaling. Here, we examined many diverse tissues from adult mouse and embryonic chick to determine if stiffness ( E tissue ) follows a power law in relation to the most abundant animal protein, Collagen-I, even with molecular perturbations. We quantified fibrillar collagen in intact tissue by second harmonic generation (SHG) imaging and from tissue extracts by mass spectrometry (MS), and collagenase-mediated decreases were also tracked. Pan-tissue power laws for tissue stiffness versus Collagen-I levels measured by SHG or MS exhibit sub-linear scaling that aligns with results from cellularized gels of Collagen-I but not acellular gels. Inhibition of cellular myosin-II based contraction fits the scaling, and combination with inhibitors of matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) show collagenase activity is strain - not stress- suppressed in tissues, consistent with past studies of gels and fibrils. Beating embryonic hearts and tendons, which differ in both collagen levels and stiffness by >1000-fold, similarly suppressed collagenases at physiological strains of ∼5%, with fiber-orientation regulating degradation. Scaling of E tissue based on 'use-it-or-lose-it' kinetics provides insight into scaling of organ size, microgravity effects, and regeneration processes while suggesting contractility-driven therapeutics.

Abstract
The T2K experiment presents new measurements of neutrino oscillation parameters using 19.7 ( 16.3 ) × 10 20 protons on target (POT) in (anti-)neutrino mode at the far detector (FD). Compared to the previous analysis, an additional 4.7 × 10 20 POT neutrino data was collected at the FD. Significant improvements were made to the analysis methodology, with the near-detector analysis introducing new selections and using more than double the data. Additionally, this is the first T2K oscillation analysis to use NA61/SHINE data on a replica of the T2K target to tune the neutrino flux model, and the neutrino interaction model was improved to include new nuclear effects and calculations. Frequentist and Bayesian analyses are presented, including results on sin 2 θ 13 and the impact of priors on the δ CP measurement. Both analyses prefer the normal mass ordering and upper octant of sin 2 θ 23 with a nearly maximally CP-violating phase. Assuming the normal ordering and using the constraint on sin 2 θ 13 from reactors, sin 2 θ 23 = 0 . 561 - 0.032 + 0.021 using Feldman-Cousins corrected intervals, and Δ m 32 2 = 2 . 494 - 0.058 + 0.041 × 10 - 3 eV 2 using constant Δ χ 2 intervals. The CP-violating phase is constrained to δ CP = - 1 . 97 - 0.70 + 0.97 using Feldman-Cousins corrected intervals, and δ CP = 0 , π is excluded at more than 90% confidence level. A Jarlskog invariant of zero is excluded at more than 2 σ credible level using a flat prior in δ CP , and just below 2 σ using a flat prior in sin δ CP . When the external constraint on sin 2 θ 13 is removed, sin 2 θ 13 = 28 . 0 - 6.5 + 2.8 × 10 - 3 , in agreement with measurements from reactor experiments. These results are consistent with previous T2K analyses.

Abstract
In various types of many-particle systems, bidispersity is frequently used to avoid spontaneous ordering in particle configurations. In this study, the relation between bidispersity and disorder degree of particle configurations is investigated. By using magnetic dipole-dipole interaction, magnet particles are dispersed in a two-dimensional cell without any physical contact between them. In this magnetic system, bidispersity is introduced by mixing large and small magnets. Then, the particle system is compressed to produce a uniform particle configuration. The compressed particle configuration is analyzed by using Voronoi tessellation for evaluating the disorder degree, which strongly depends on bidispersity. Specifically, the standard deviation and skewness of the Voronoi cell area distribution are measured. As a result, we find that the peak of standard deviation is observed when the numbers of large and small particles are almost identical. Although the skewness shows a non-monotonic behavior, a zero skewness state (symmetric distribution) can be achieved when the numbers of large and small particles are identical. In this ideally random (disordered) state, the ratio between pentagonal, hexagonal, and heptagonal Voronoi cells becomes roughly identical, while hexagons are dominant under monodisperse (ordered) conditions. The relation between Voronoi cell analysis and the global bond orientational order parameter is also discussed.

Abstract
Lipopolysaccharide (LPS), an endotoxin, induces systemic inflammation by injection and is thought to be a causative agent of chronic inflammatory diseases, including type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). However, our previous studies found that oral LPS administration does not exacerbate T2DM conditions in KK/Ay mice, which is the opposite of the response from LPS injection. Therefore, this study aims to confirm that oral LPS administration does not aggravate T2DM and to investigate the possible mechanisms. In this study, KK/Ay mice with T2DM were orally administered LPS (1 mg/kg BW/day) for 8 weeks, and blood glucose parameters before and after oral administration were compared. Abnormal glucose tolerance, insulin resistance progression, and progression of T2DM symptoms were suppressed by oral LPS administration. Furthermore, the expressions of factors involved in insulin signaling, such as insulin receptor, insulin receptor substrate 1, thymoma viral proto-oncogene, and glucose transporter type 4, were upregulated in the adipose tissues of KK/Ay mice, where this effect was observed. For the first time, oral LPS administration induces the expression of adiponectin in adipose tissues, which is involved in the increased expression of these molecules. Briefly, oral LPS administration may prevent T2DM by inducing an increase in the expressions of insulin signaling-related factors based on adiponectin production in adipose tissues.

Abstract
Samples of the carbonaceous asteroid Ryugu were brought to Earth by the Hayabusa2 spacecraft. We analyzed 17 Ryugu samples measuring 1 to 8 millimeters. Carbon dioxide-bearing water inclusions are present within a pyrrhotite crystal, indicating that Ryugu's parent asteroid formed in the outer Solar System. The samples contain low abundances of materials that formed at high temperatures, such as chondrules and calcium- and aluminum-rich inclusions. The samples are rich in phyllosilicates and carbonates, which formed through aqueous alteration reactions at low temperature, high pH, and water/rock ratios of <1 (by mass). Less altered fragments contain olivine, pyroxene, amorphous silicates, calcite, and phosphide. Numerical simulations, based on the mineralogical and physical properties of the samples, indicate that Ryugu's parent body formed ~2 million years after the beginning of Solar System formation.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Cryoballoon ablation (CBA) is a useful treatment for pulmonary vein isolation (PVI). Some cases, however, are difficult to treat and may require multiple freezing procedures and/or touch-up ablation. Although several predictors of CBA difficulty have been reported, no report has been able to assess the spatial location and morphology of the left atrium (LA) and pulmonary veins (PVs). A polygonal mesh is a collection of vertices, edges, and faces that defines the shape of a polyhedral object, and is able to represent a spatial location with a small amount of information. We hypothesized that a deep learning model that learns mesh representation datasets could more accurately detect the CBA difficulty and that we could establish a novel evaluation method in CBA.
Purpose
The aim of this study was to create a model to predict CBA difficulty with a 3D deep learning model using polygonal mesh representation.
Methods and results
All the 140 patients who underwent CBA for drug-resistant atrial fibrillation between January 2015 and January 2022 were included. A 28-mm cryoballoon (Arctic Front Advance, Medtronic) was used in all cases. We defined CBA difficulty as requiring a touch-up ablation procedure to create complete PVI. We converted the volume data in DICOM format of the computed tomography images of PVs and LA to obj file format (shown in Figure 1), which supports the definition of the geometry for object surfaces using polygonal meshes. Next, we developed a deep learning model that could learn polygonal meshes and classify whether the CBA required touch-up ablation or not. Only a training dataset is used to train the deep learning model, and finally, a test dataset is used to evaluate the model metrics. The accuracy, area under the ROC curve, recall, precision, and f1-score of the deep learning model using the test dataset was 86.5%, 87.7%, 66.7%, 75.0%, 70.6%, respectively.
Conclusions
We developed a 3D deep learning model that can detect a difficulty in CBA using polygonal mesh representation. By predicting difficult cases in advance, we will be able to develop strategies to increase the success rate.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Tooth loss is associated with nutritional status and significantly affects quality of life, particularly in older individuals. To date, several studies reveal that a high BMI is associated with tooth loss. However, there is a lack of large-scale studies that examined the impact of obesity on residual teeth with respect to age and tooth positions. OBJECTIVE We assessed the impact of obesity on the number and position of residual teeth by age groups using large scale of Japanese database. METHODS This was a cross-sectional study of 706150 subjects that were included in the database that combined the data from health insurance claims and health check-up, those lacking information about BMI, HbA1c level, smoking status, and the number of residual teeth were excluded. Thus, a total of 233517 aged 20-74 years were included. Subjects were classified into 4 categories based on BMI, and the number of teeth was compared between age-groups. The percentage of subjects with residual teeth in each position was compared between groups with obesity (BMI ≥25.0 kg/m2) and non-obesity. Logistic regression analysis was performed to clarify whether obesity predicts having <24 teeth. RESULTS Higher BMI was associated with fewer teeth over 40s (P for trend <0.0001 when <70s). Obesity was associated with the reduction of residual teeth in the maxillary; specifically, the molars were affected over the age 30. Smoking status further affected tooth loss at positions that were not affected by obesity alone. After adjusting for age, sex, smoking status, and HbA1c ≥6.5%, obesity remained an independent predictive factor for having <24 teeth (ORs: 1.35, 95% CIs: 1.30-1.40). CONCLUSIONS We found that an increase in BMI was associated with a decrease in the number of residual teeth from younger ages independently of smoking status and diabetes in the large scale of Japanese database.

Abstract
BACKGROUND/AIM Lipopolysaccharide (LPS) is thought to be a causative agent of type 2 diabetes, because it has been shown that a single LPS stimulation in vitro induces chronic inflammation and reduces insulin signaling in adipocytes. However, oral LPS administration prevents type 2 diabetes, and this effect does not correspond to a single LPS adipocyte stimulation. In this study, the response of adipocytes to single and repeated stimulation with LPS was examined. MATERIALS AND METHODS 3T3-L1 cells were differentiated into adipocytes and stimulated with LPS once or thrice every 24 h. The expression levels of inflammatory and anti-inflammatory factors and insulin sensitivity-related factors were measured. RESULTS Single stimulation with LPS increased the mRNA and protein expression of inflammatory factors (interleukin-6 and monocyte chemotactic protein 1), but this increase was inhibited by repeated stimulation. In contrast, the mRNA expression levels of anti-inflammatory factors (proliferator-activated receptor γ and peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma coactivator1 α) were increased by repeated LPS stimulation. Additionally, the mRNA expression levels of insulin sensitivity-related factors (glucose transporter type 4, insulin receptor, insulin receptor substrate 1 and thymoma viral proto-oncogene 2) in adipocytes were increased upon repeated LPS stimulation. CONCLUSION Repetitive LPS stimulation, unlike single stimulation of adipocytes, upregulates anti-inflammatory and insulin signaling-related factors.

Abstract
BackgroundSystemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is a complex autoimmune disease with unknown etiology involving multiple immune cells and has diverse clinical phenotypes. This heterogeneous nature has hampered a better understanding of SLE pathogenesis and the development of effective therapeutic agents. While recent single-cell RNA sequencing studies of SLE identified several important cell subpopulations, they were limited by sparse expression information at single-cell level and small sample sizes.ObjectivesThis study aimed to elucidate the dysregulated gene expression pattern linked to multiple clinical statuses of SLE with a fine cellular resolution and higher sensitivity. We also attempted to resolve a complex interaction between risk variants and the transcriptome dysregulation seen in SLE patients.MethodsWe conducted a large-scale bulk transcriptome study of 6,386 RNA-sequencing data including 27 purified immune cell types in peripheral blood from 136 SLE and 89 healthy donors in the Immune Cell Gene Expression Atlas from the University of Tokyo (ImmuNexUT) cohort1. At enrollment, SLE patients had diverse clinical manifestations (disease activity, organ involvement and treatment profiles) and 22 patients were re-evaluated after belimumab treatment.ResultsWe first profiled two distinct cell-type-specific transcriptomic signatures: disease-state and disease-activity signatures, reflecting disease establishment and exacerbation, respectively.After confirming the high replicability of both signatures in independent cohorts, we identified candidates of biological processes unique to each signature: e.g., upregulated E2F transcriptional activity in Th1, CD8+ memory T-lineage and NK cells, and dynamic increase of IL21 and CXCL13 in Th1 cells in an active phase of SLE. Pathway analysis highlighted the importance of immunometabolic process for SLE (e.g., oxidative phosphorylation) in cell-type-specific resolution.Moreover, we demonstrated cell-type-specific contributions to diverse organ involvement, e.g., Th1 for mucocutaneous, monocyte-lineage cells for musculoskeletal, neutrophil-lineage cells for renal activity, respectively.We also observed the strong associations of disease-activity signatures with treatment effect: (i) belimumab suppressed activity signatures from B-lineage cells, especially in good responders and (ii) mycophenolate mofetil substantially suppressed activity signatures from plasmablast, Th1, and central memory CD8 cells.However, through stratified LD score regression using large-scale SLE-GWASs, we revealed that disease-activity signatures were less enriched around SLE risk variants than disease-state signatures. Consistent with this result, the directions of SLE risk alleles’ expression quantitative trait locus (eQTL) effects were significantly concordant with the directions of disease-state signatures, but not with those of activity signatures. These findings suggested that the current genetic case-control studies may not well capture clinically vital biology linked to drug target discovery for SLE. Meanwhile, we also detected some examples of activity signatures that might contribute to the disease risk by modulating risk allele’s eQTL effects.Figure 1.ConclusionWe identified comprehensive gene signatures reflecting the establishment and exacerbation of SLE, which provide essential foundations for future genomic, genetic, and clinical studies.References[1]Ota, M. et al.

Abstract
A triple antiemetic therapy combining aprepitant (APR) with conventional double antiemetic therapy, including 5-hydroxytryptamine 3 receptor antagonist (5-HT₃-RA) and dexamethasone (DEX), is recommended for preventing chemotherapy-induced nausea and vomiting induced by a carboplatin (CBDCA) regimen. However, consensus on the additive effects of APR for gynecological patients on a combined regimen of paclitaxel and CBDCA (TC regimen) has yet to be reached. This retrospective study investigated the antiemetic effects of palonosetron and DEX (PD therapy) and granisetron and DEX with APR (GDA therapy) in patients with gynecologic cancer and who underwent their first TC regimen cycle between April 2017 and March 2020 at the Gunma University Hospital Outpatient Chemotherapy Center. The results showed that the complete response rate of the 92 patients who underwent PD therapy (PD group) and the 46 patients who underwent GDA therapy (GDA group) were both 80.4% (p = 1.000), and the complete control rates of the PD and GDA groups were 78.3% and 80.4%, respectively (p = 0.828), resulting in no significant difference. Furthermore, we observed no significant difference between the PD and GDA groups in the incidence of grade ≥2 nausea, vomiting, and anorexia (nausea: 7.6% vs. 0%, p = 0.095; vomiting: 4.3% vs. 0%, p = 0.301; and anorexia: 9.8% vs. 2.2%, p = 0.164). Concerning adverse events, compared to the PD group, the GDA group showed significantly higher incidence of grade ≥2 malaise (7.6% vs. 19.6%, p = 0.039). Given the lack of difference in the antiemetic effects of PD and GDA therapies, antiemetic therapy should be selected carefully for individual patients by accounting for the incidence of adverse reactions and interactions with APR.

Abstract
The mass of the W boson, a mediator of the weak force between elementary particles, is tightly constrained by the symmetries of the standard model of particle physics. The Higgs boson was the last missing component of the model. After observation of the Higgs boson, a measurement of the W boson mass provides a stringent test of the model. We measure the W boson mass, MW, using data corresponding to 8.8 inverse femtobarns of integrated luminosity collected in proton-antiproton collisions at a 1.96 tera-electron volt center-of-mass energy with the CDF II detector at the Fermilab Tevatron collider. A sample of approximately 4 million W boson candidates is used to obtain [Formula: see text], the precision of which exceeds that of all previous measurements combined (stat, statistical uncertainty; syst, systematic uncertainty; MeV, mega-electron volts; c, speed of light in a vacuum). This measurement is in significant tension with the standard model expectation.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
The standard diagnosis of heart failure (HF) with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) is based on the following: 1) symptoms of HF, 2) preserved left ventricular (LV) ejection fraction (LVEF, >50%), and 3) presence of LV diastolic dysfunction confirmed by echocardiography or cardiac catheterisation. However, there are limits to the diagnostic accuracy of individual parameters, and what cut-off values should be applied and how they should be combined remain unclear. Diagnostic algorithms for HFpEF such as the HFA-PEFF algorithm and the H2FPEF score have been proposed; however, previous validation studies were conducted in stable chronic HF and did not include an invasive haemodynamic assessment. Thus, the diagnostic accuracy for HFpEF lacked robustness. Moreover, information on their applicability in the Asian population is limited.
Purpose
The aim of this study was to investigate these scores' diagnostic validity for HFpEF in Japanese patients recently hospitalised due to acute decompensated HF.
Methods
We examined patients with HFpEF recently hospitalised with acute decompensated HF whose HFA-PEFF and H2FPEF scores could be calculated at discharge from a nationwide HFpEF-specific multicentre registry (HFpEF group) and control patients who underwent echocardiography to investigate the cause of dyspnoea in our hospital (Non-HFpEF group). We calculated the HFA-PEFF and the H2FPEF scores among the studied population. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves and area under the curve (AUC) were computed to compare the diagnostic accuracy of these scores.
Results
The studied population included 372 consecutive patients (194 HFpEF group and 178 Non-HFpEF group; HFpEF prevalence, 52%). The HFA-PEFF score classified 155 (42%) of all patients into the high likelihood category (5–6 points) and only 19 (5%) into the low likelihood category (0–1 point). A high HFA-PEFF score could diagnose HFpEF with a high specificity of 84% and a positive predictive value (PPV) of 82%, and a low HFA-PEFF score could rule out HFpEF with a high sensitivity of 99% and a negative predictive value (NPV) of 89%. The H2FPEF score classified 86 (23%) of all patients into the high likelihood category (6–9 points) and 84 (23%) into the low likelihood category (0–1 point). HFpEF could be diagnosed with a high H2FPEF score (specificity, 97%; PPV, 94%) or ruled out with a low H2FPEF score (sensitivity, 97%; NPV, 93%). The diagnostic accuracy for the HFA-PEFF and H2FPEF scores was 0.82 (95% confidence interval [CI] 0.78–0.86) and 0.89 (95% CI 0.86–0.93), respectively, by the AUC of the ROC curve (P=0.004) (Figure 1A). In the HFA-PEFF sub-scores, the functional score showed little diagnostic value, while the morphological and biomarker scores showed moderate diagnostic value (Figure 1B).
Conclusions
The H2FPEF score may be more useful than the HFA-PEFF score in diagnosing HFpEF in Japanese patients.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
A successful Radiofrequency (RF) ablation of ventricular tachycardia (VT) can prevent VT recurrence. It has been reported that VT non-inducibility at the end of RF ablation is associated with less likely VT recurrence in ischemic cardiomyopathy (ICM) and non-ICM (NCIM). However, it is not clear whether we should use VT non-inducibility as routine end point in RF ablation of VT.
Purpose
The aim of this study was to evaluate VT recurrence in patients who couldn't be achieved VT non-inducibility at the end of RF ablation and the factors attributed to VT recurrence in ICM and NICM patients.
Methods
Between January 2009 and April 2020, 84 consecutive patients (ICM: 34, NICM: 50) underwent RF ablation for drug-resistant VT in our hospital. VT non-inducibility was defined as any ventricular tachy-arrhythmia, including clinical VT, non-clinical VT, and VF, was not induced by programed stimuli at the end of session. Non-inducibility was achieved in 37 patients but it was not achieved in 47 patients (ICM: 18, NICM: 29). To evaluate the validity of “non-inducibility” as an end point of VT ablation, 47 patients (male: 40, mean age: 66±15 years) in whom non-inducibility of any ventricular tachyarrhythmia was not achieved were studied. The primary endpoint was recurrence of any sustained VT and VF during follow up period (mean follow-up period was 1.4 (range, 0.0, 2.0) years.)
Results
Mean left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) was 36±13%. Epicardial ablation was required in 8 patients. 32 patients had electrical storm at the time of ablation. Among them, 21 patients had VT recurrence and 26 patients had non-VT recurrence during follow-up period. VT recurrence rate was significantly lower in patients with LVEF≥35% than those with LVEF<35% (HR=0.31, 95% CI 1.25–9.92). Multivariate survival analysis identified LVEF≥35% (HR=0.34, 95% CI 0.10–0.98) and ablation of VT isthmus (HR=0.18, 95% CI 0.02–0.78) as independent predictors of non-VT recurrence.
Conclusions
Even if non-inducibility of any ventricular tachyarrhythmia wasn't achieved at the end of ablation, the patients with LVEF≥35% or who had ablated of VT isthmus might prevent VT recurrence. The validity of non-inducibility of any ventricular tachyarrhythmia should be evaluated in each patient's background.

Abstract
Diabetes-related cognitive dysfunction (DRCD) is a serious complication induced by diabetes. However, there are currently no specific remedies for DRCD. Here, we show that streptozotocin-induced DRCD can be prevented without causing side effects through oral administration of lipopolysaccharide (LPS) derived from Pantoea agglomerans. Oral administration of LPS (OAL) prevented the cerebral cortex atrophy and tau phosphorylation induced by DRCD. Moreover, we observed that neuroprotective transformation of microglia (brain tissue-resident macrophages) is important for preventing DRCD through OAL. These findings are contrary to the general recognition of LPS as an inflammatory agent when injected systemically. Furthermore, our results strongly suggest that OAL promotes membrane-bound colony stimulating factor 1 (CSF1) expression on peripheral leukocytes, which activates the CSF1 receptor on microglia, leading to their transformation to the neuroprotective phenotype. Taken together, the present study indicates that controlling innate immune modulation through the simple and safe strategy of OAL can be an innovative prophylaxis for intractable neurological diseases such as DRCD. In a sense, for modern people living in an LPS-depleted environment, OAL is like a time machine that returns microglia to the good old LPS-abundant era.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Currently, biological disease-modifying anti-rheumatic drugs (bDMARDs) with different modes of action [tumour necrosis factor inhibitor (TNFi), interleukin-6 receptor inhibitor (IL-6Ri), or cytotoxic T-lymphocyte antigen 4-immunoglobulin (CTLA4-Ig)] are used in clinical practice to treat rheumatoid arthritis (RA). However, it is unclear which type of bDMARD is the most efficacious for a specific clinical situation. C-reactive protein (CRP) is an acute-phase reactant driven by IL-6 signalling. Here, we aimed to establish whether therapeutic efficacy differs between IL-6Ri and other bDMARDs with alternative modes of action in RA patients according to their CRP level. METHOD RA patients treated with bDMARDs were enrolled from an observational multicentre registry in Japan. Patients were classified into three groups according to baseline CRP tertiles. The overall 3 year retention rates of each bDMARD category were assessed. The Clinical Disease Activity Index (CDAI) was also assessed before and 3, 6, and 12 months after bDMARD initiation. RESULTS A total of 1438 RA patients were included and classified into three groups according to tertiles of baseline CRP levels (CRP1, 0-0.3; CRP2, 0.3-1.8; CRP3, 1.8-18.4 mg/dL). In CRP3, the overall 3 year drug retention rates were significantly higher for IL-6Ri than for TNFi and CTLA4-Ig (77.5 vs 48.2 vs 67.3, respectively). No significant difference was evident in terms of CDAI 12 months after bDMARD initiation in CRP1-CRP3. CONCLUSION IL-6Ri may be a favourable therapeutic option over TNFi and CTLA4-Ig in RA patients with high CRP levels.

Abstract
Background Attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is a common neurodevelopmental disorder associated with numerous functional deficits and poor long-term outcomes. Internationally, behavioral interventions are recommended as part of a multimodal treatment approach for children with ADHD. Currently, in Japan, there are limited interventions available to target ADHD. Well Parent Japan (WPJ), a new hybrid parent-training program, provides a culturally acceptable and effective way to help support Japanese children with ADHD and their parents. Objective This pragmatic multicenter randomized controlled trial aims to provide preliminary evidence about the effectiveness and cost-effectiveness of WPJ evaluated against treatment as usual (TAU) within routine Japanese mental health services. Methods Mothers of children (aged 6-12 years) diagnosed with ADHD were recruited from child and adolescent mental health care services at three hospital sites across Japan (Fukui, Fukuoka, and Okinawa). The mothers were randomized to receive immediate treatment or TAU. The effectiveness and cost-effectiveness of WPJ over TAU at the end of the intervention and at 3-month follow-up will be evaluated. The primary outcome is maternal parent domain stress in the parenting role. The following secondary outcomes will be explored: child behavior, including severity of ADHD symptoms; parenting practices; emotional well-being; and the parent-child relationship and maternal child domain parenting stress. Data analysis will follow intention-to-treat principles with treatment effects quantified through analysis of covariance using multilevel modeling. An incremental cost-effectiveness ratio will be used to analyze the cost-effectiveness of the WPJ intervention. Results Study funding was secured through a proof-of-concept grant in July 2018. Approval by the institutional review board for the data collection sites was obtained between 2017 and 2019. Data collection began in August 2019 and was completed in April 2022. Participant recruitment (N=124) was completed in May 2021. Effectiveness and cost-effectiveness analyses are expected to be completed by July 2022 and December 2022, respectively. These timelines are subject to change owing to the COVID-19 pandemic. Conclusions This is the first multisite pragmatic trial of WPJ based on the recruitment of children referred directly to routine clinical services in Japan. This multisite randomized trial tests the effectiveness of WPJ in children and families by comparing WPJ directly with the usual clinical care offered for children diagnosed with ADHD in Japan. We also seek to assess and compare the cost-effectiveness of WPJ with TAU in Japan.

Abstract
BACKGROUND/AIM Diabetes is a risk factor for dementia. However, no radical preventive method for diabetes-associated dementia has yet been developed. Our previous study revealed that oral administration of lipopolysaccharide (LPS) prevents high-fat diet-induced cognitive impairment. Therefore, we investigated here whether oral administration of LPS (OAL) could also prevent diabetes-associated dementia. MATERIALS AND METHODS Diabetic mice were produced by intraperitoneal administration of streptozotocin (STZ), and then mice were orally administered LPS. Cognitive ability was evaluated using the Morris water maze, and gene expression was analyzed in isolated microglia. RESULTS OAL prevented STZ-induced diabetic cognitive impairment, but did not affect blood glucose levels. Moreover, OAL promoted the expression of neuroprotective genes in microglia, such as heat shock protein family 40 (HSP40) and chemokine CCL7. CONCLUSION OAL prevents diabetes-associated dementia, potentially via promotion of HSP40 and CCL7 expression in microglia.

Abstract
Diabetes‑associated neuronal dysfunction (DAND) is one of the serious complications of diabetes, but there is currently no remedy for it. Streptozotocin [2‑deoxy‑2‑(3‑methy1‑3‑nitrosoureido) D‑glucopyranose; STZ] is one of the most well‑established diabetes inducers and has been used in vivo and in vitro DAND models. The aim of the present study was to demonstrate that C8‑B4 microglia transformed by the stimulus of repetitive low‑dose lipopolysaccharide (LPSx3‑microglia) prevent STZ‑induced Neuro‑2a neuronal cell death in vitro. The ELISA results showed that neurotrophin‑4/5 (NT‑4/5) secretion was promoted in LPSx3‑microglia and the cell viability assay with trypan blue staining revealed that the culture supernatant of LPSx3‑microglia prevented STZ‑induced neuronal cell death. In addition, reverse transcription‑quantitative PCR showed that neurons treated with the culture supernatant of LPSx3‑microglia promoted the gene expression of B‑cell lymphoma‑extra large and glucose‑dependent insulinotropic polypeptide receptor. Furthermore, the inhibition of tyrosine kinase receptor B, a receptor of NT‑4/5, suppressed the neuroprotective effect of LPSx3‑microglia. Taken together, the present study demonstrated that LPSx3‑microglia prevent STZ‑induced neuronal death and that NT‑4/5 may be involved in the neuroprotective mechanism of LPSx3‑microglia.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) caused by infection by the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) has spread worldwide. Since reducing the amount of virus in saliva is considered to prevent broader infection, the Center for Disease Control (CDC) and American Dental Hygienists' Association (ADHA) have recommended use of CPC- or CHX-containing oral care products before the dental procedure. However, there is no certified evidence. So, we examined inactivation of SARS-CoV-2 by oral care products in several countries in vitro. METHODS 0.05 % Cetylpyridinium chloride (CPC) mouthwash, 0.05 % CPC toothpaste and 0.30 % CPC spray in Japan; 0.06 % chlorhexidine gluconate (CHX) + 0.05 % CPC mouthwash and 0.12 % CHX + 0.05 % CPC mouthwash in Europe; 0.075 % CPC mouthwash, 0.12 % CHX mouthwash, and 0.20 % delmopinol hydrochloride mouthwash in the USA; and 0.04 % CPC mouthwash in China were assessed for their virucidal activity with ASTM E1052. RESULTS The virus was inactivated in vitro by the contact time in directions for use of all oral care products containing CPC or delmopinol hydrochloride as anticeptics. CONCLUSIONS These results suggest that these oral care products in each country may reduce the viral load in the mouth.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Lateral radiography of the knee joint is frequently performed; however, the retake rate is high owing to positioning errors. Therefore, in this study, to reduce the required number and time of image retakes, we developed a system that can classify the tilting directions of lateral knee radiographs and evaluated the accuracy of the proposed method. METHODS Using our system, the tilting directions of a lateral knee radiographs were classified into four direction categories. The system was developed by training the DCNN based on 50 cases of Raysum images and tested on three types test dataset; ten more cases of Raysum images, one case of flexed knee joint phantom images and 14 rejected knee joint radiographs. To train a deep convolutional neural network (DCNN), we employed Raysum images created via three-dimensional (3D) X-ray computed tomography (CT); 11 520 Raysum images were created from 60 cases of 3D CT data by changing the projection angles. Thereby, we obtained pseudo images attached with correct labels that are essential for training. RESULTS The overall accuracy on each test dataset was 88.5 ± 7.0% (mean ± standard deviation), 81.4 ± 11.2%, and 73.3 ± 9.2%. The larger the tilting degree of the knee joint, the higher the classification accuracy. CONCLUSION DCNN could classify the tilting directions of a knee joint from lateral knee radiographs. Using Raysum images made it possible to facilitate creating dataset for training DCNN. The possibility was indicated for using support system of lateral knee radiographs. IMPLICATIONS FOR PRACTICE The system may also reduce the burden on patients and increase the work efficiency of radiological technologists.

Abstract
A 90 GHz W-band millimeter-wave back-scattering system is designed and installed for measuring electron scale turbulence (k⊥ρs ∼ 40). A metal lens relay antenna is used for in-vessel beam focusing, and a beam diameter of less than 40 mm is achieved in the plasma core region. This antenna can be steered at an angle of 159° ± 6°, which almost covers the plasma radius. The estimated size of the scattering volume is ∼105 mm at the edge and 135 mm at the core, respectively. A 60 m corrugated waveguide is used to achieve a low transmission loss of ∼8 dB. A heterodyne detection system for millimeter-wave circuits with probing power modulation can distinguish the scattered signal from background noise.

Background
Elevated left ventricular (LV) filling pressures are the main physiologic consequence of LV diastolic dysfunction. Left atrial (LA) strain was recently found useful to predict elevated LV filling pressures noninvasively. However, there are few reports on the role of LA strain when predicting LV filling pressure in patients with coronary artery disease (CAD). The aim of this study was to explore the correlation between LA strain and LV end-diastolic pressure (LVEDP) in patients with CAD and preserved LV ejection fraction.
Methods
Fifty-four patients with stable CAD were enrolled. Global atrial longitudinal strain was measured by averaging all atrial segments. Resorvoir (S-LAs), conduit (S-LAe), and contractile (S-LAa) phase strain were obtained. LVEDP was invasively obtained by left heart catheterization.
Results
Patients were divided into two groups: elevated LVEDP group (LVEDP > 15mmHg group: n = 23) and normal LVEDP group (LVEDP ≤ 15mmHg group: n = 31). Elevated LVEDP group showed significantly decreased S-LAs and S-LAa (S-LAs: 21.3 ± 7.2% vs. 27.5 ± 7.8%, p < 0.005; S-LAa: 9.7 ± 3.3% vs. 14.6 ± 3.4%, p < 0.0001). However, E/Ea and S-LAe were not significantly different between the two groups. LVEDP significantly correlated with S-LAa (r=-0.596, p < 0.0001) and S-LAs (r=-0.431, p < 0.001). Receiver operating characteristics curve analysis showed that S-LAa could predict elevated LVEDP (AUC = 0.84) and a cut-off value of S-LAa < 11.6% was able to most accurately identify patients with elevated LVEDP.
Conclusions
LA strain, especially S-LAa, provided additional diagnostic value for the noninvasive assessment of LV filling pressure in CAD patients with preserved LV ejection fraction.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Oscillatory shear stress could not be directly measured in consideration of direction, although cerebrospinal fluid has repetitive movements synchronized with heartbeat. Our aim was to evaluate the important of oscillatory shear stress in the cerebral aqueduct and foramen magnum in idiopathic normal pressure hydrocephalus by comparing it with wall shear stress and the oscillatory shear index in patients with idiopathic normal pressure hydrocephalus. MATERIALS AND METHODS By means of the 4D flow application, oscillatory shear stress, wall shear stress, and the oscillatory shear index were measured in 41 patients with idiopathic normal pressure hydrocephalus, 23 with co-occurrence of idiopathic normal pressure hydrocephalus and Alzheimer-type dementia, and 9 age-matched controls. These shear stress parameters at the cerebral aqueduct were compared with apertures and stroke volumes at the foramen of Magendie and cerebral aqueduct. RESULTS Two wall shear stress magnitude peaks during a heartbeat were changed to periodic oscillation by converting oscillatory shear stress. The mean oscillatory shear stress amplitude and time-averaged wall shear stress values at the dorsal and ventral regions of the cerebral aqueduct in the idiopathic normal pressure hydrocephalus groups were significantly higher than those in controls. Furthermore, those at the ventral region of the cerebral aqueduct in the idiopathic normal pressure hydrocephalus group were also significantly higher than those in the co-occurrence of idiopathic normal pressure hydrocephalus with Alzheimer-type dementia group. The oscillatory shear stress amplitude at the dorsal region of the cerebral aqueduct was significantly associated with foramen of Magendie diameters, whereas it was strongly associated with the stroke volume at the upper end of the cerebral aqueduct rather than that at the foramen of Magendie. CONCLUSIONS Oscillatory shear stress, which reflects wall shear stress vector changes better than the conventional wall shear stress magnitude and the oscillatory shear index, can be directly measured on 4D flow MR imaging. Oscillatory shear stress at the cerebral aqueduct was considerably higher in patients with idiopathic normal pressure hydrocephalus.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
The transtubular potassium concentration gradient (TTKG) has been reported to be a marker of renal aldosterone bioactivity, and has been shown to be a surrogate of arterial underfilling in patients with acute decompensated heart failure (ADHF). Moreover, high TTKG at discharge has been shown to be associated with poor prognosis in ADHF patients. Empagliflozin, one of the sodium glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors, has been shown to reduce the risk of cardiovascular mortality in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2D) and cardiovascular disease. However, little is known about the effect of empagliflozin as add-on therapy on TTKG in T2D patients with ADHF.
Purpose
We sought to elucidate the effect of empagliflozin as add-on therapy on TTKG in T2D patients with ADHF.
Methods
We enrolled 58 consecutive T2D patients admitted for ADHF. On admission, enrolled patients were randomly assigned in a 1:1 ratio to either empagliflozin add-on therapy (EMPA(+)) or conventional glucose-lowering therapy (EMPA(−)). All patients in EMPA(+) group received empagliflozin (10 mg/day) throughout the study period. Left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) was measured at baseline using echocardiography. Body weight and vital signs, such as blood pressure and heart rate, were measured, and blood and urine samples were collected at baseline and 1, 2, 3 and 7 days after randomization. The TTKG was measured using the first morning urine samples collected on each day. TTKG was calculated according to the following equation: TTKG = (Ku/Ks)×(plasma osmolality/urine osmolality), where Ku is urine potassium concentration and Ks is serum potassium concentration, as previously reported.
Results
Thirty patients were assigned to the EMPA(+) group, and 28 patients were assigned to the EMPA(−) group. There were no significant baseline differences in LVEF, plasma B-type natriuretic peptide (BNP) level, body mass index, or serum creatinine level between the EMPA(+) and EMPA(−) groups. TTKG did not significantly differ between the two groups at baseline. However, seven days after randomization, plasma BNP level was significantly lower in the EMPA(+) group than in the EMPA(−) group (median 227 [IQR 114–381] pg/mL vs 362 [227–554] pg/mL, p=0.0294). Furthermore, TTKG of the EMPA(+) group was significantly lower at 2, 3 and 7 days after randomization (Figure).
Conclusions
This study demonstrated that empagliflozin as add-on therapy can lower TTKG in T2D patients with ADHF.

Abstract
Abstract
Background/Introduction
Extracorporeal cardiopulmonary resuscitation (ECPR) has been reported to improve survival and neurologic outcome as compared to conventional CPR in refractory cardiac arrest. Although prognostic factors of these patients have been reported, predicting of outcome is difficult in real world. Recently, early evaluation of myocardial viability in acute myocardial infarction by non-contrast computed tomography (CT) post coronary angiography (CAG) has been reported. And myocardial contrast delayed enhancement obtained by this method related to higher risk of cardiac events. However, few studies have reported delayed enhancement on left ventricular wall findings in non-contrast CT after CAG in terms of patients performed ECPR.
Purpose
To investigate the impact of delayed hyperenhancement obtained by non-contrast CT following CAG in patients performed ECPR.
Methods
We investigated 79 patients treated by ECPR for refractory cardiac arrest regardless of whether in-hospital or out-hospital in our institute from Apr 2009 to Feb 2018. Thirty-two in these patients received non-contrast CT following CAG with ECPR were enrolled. All ECPR cases underwent VA-ECMO in the catheter laboratory using percutaneous procedure while maintaining conventional CPR. Non-ECG-gated and non-contrast CT was performed using a 64-row multidetector CT scanner.
Results
Survival rate was 18.8% in this cohort. There was no significant difference between survive and in-hospital death group in terms of patient characteristics, clinical time courses, initial blood samples and procedure characteristics. Only delayed hyperenhancement showed significant difference between 2 groups (p=0.04). All delayed hyperenhancements were detected in only in-hospital death group. Delayed hyperenhancement was detected in 12 cases (37.5%). Initial shockable rhythm was less common in cases with delayed hyperenhancement. Cardiac death tended to be more frequent in patients with delayed hyperenhancement. The major causes of death were bleeding (41.7%) and heart failure (33%).
Conclusion(s)
Delayed hyperenhancement in patients treated ECPR was strong predictor of in-hospital death.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
The 6th World Symposium on Pulmonary Hypertension suggested major revision about definition of pulmonary hypertension (PH) as mean pulmonary artery pressure (mPAP) >20 mmHg. The definitions of two subsets of PH due to left heart disease (PH-LHD) also revised. The aim of this study was to investigate clinical characteristics and outcomes of subsets of PH-LHD defined by new criteria.
Methods
We analyzed 701 patients admitted for symptomatic heart failure (NYHA ≥2) and underwent right heart catheterization at compensated stage between 2007 and 2016. These patients were divided into 4 groups as follows: (i) Isolated post-capillary PH (Ipc-PH); mPAP >20 mmHg and pulmonary artery wedge pressure (PAWP) >15 mmHg and pulmonary vascular resistance (PVR) <3 WU, (ii) Combined pre- and post-capillary PH (Cpc-PH); mPAP >20 mmHg and PAWP >15 mmHg and PVR ≥3 WU, (iii) pre-capillary PH; mPAP >20 mmHg and PAWP ≤15 mmHg, (iv) no PH; mPAP ≤20 mmHg. Kaplan-Meier curves were applied to investigate whether each groups predict heart failure (HF) death or HF readmission.
Results
The study patients were divided into Ipc-PH (n=268), Cpc-PH (n=54), Pre-capillary PH (n=112), and no PH (n=267). Cpc-PH was significantly associated with HF death or HF readmission as compared to other groups (Figure).
Conclusions
Cpc-PH defined by new criteria was significantly associated with poor long-term clinical outcomes, which suggests new criteria of two subsets of PH-LHD could be strict risk stratification for symptomatic heart failure.

Abstract
We describe a new member of the aldo-keto reductase (AKR) superfamily in the silkworm Bombyx mori. On the basis of its amino acid sequence and phylogenetic tree, this AKR belongs to the AKR1B family and has been designated as bmALD1. In the current study, recombinant bmALD1 was overexpressed, purified to homogeneity and kinetically characterized. We discovered that bmALD1 uses NADPH as a coenzyme to reduce carbonyl compounds such as DL-glyceraldehyde, glucose and 2-nonenal. No NADH-dependent activity was detected. To the best of our knowledge, bmALD1 is only the third AKR characterized in silkworm which, given its substrate specificity, could play a major role in glucose metabolism and antioxidant reactions. Our data provide an increased understanding of insect AKR function.
