Abstract
The dynamic change of redox conditions is a key factor in emission of elemental mercury (Hg0) from riparian soils. The objective of this study was to elucidate the influences of redox conditions on Hg0 emission from riparian soils. Soil suspension experiments were conducted to measure Hg0 emission from five Hg-contaminated soil samples in two redox conditions (i.e., treated with air or with N2). In four of the five samples, Hg0 emission was higher in air treatment than on N2 treatment. Remaining one soil, which has higher organic matter than other soils, showed no distinct difference in Hg0 production between air and N2 treatment. In soil suspensions subject to N2 treatment, the dissolved organic carbon (DOC) and Fe2+ concentrations were 3.38- to 1.34-fold and 1.44- to 2.28-fold higher than those in air treatment, respectively. Positive correlations were also found between the DOC and Fe2+ (r = 0.911, p < 0.01) and Hg2+ (r = 0.815, p < 0.01) concentrations in soil solutions, suggesting Fe2+ formation led to the release of DOC, which bound to Hg2+ in the soil and, in turn, limited the availability of Hg2+ for reduction to Hg0 in N2 treatment. On the other hand, for remaining one soil, more Hg2+ might be adsorbed onto the DOM in the air treatment, resulted in the inhibition of Hg0 production in air treatment. These results imply that the organic matter is important to prevent Hg0 production by changing redox condition. Further study is needed to prove the role of organic matter in the production of Hg0.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION The membranous septum (MS) length measured by cardiac computed tomography (CT) is useful for the prediction of permanent pacemaker implantation (PPMI) and new left bundle branch block (LBBB) after transcatheter aortic valve replacement. However, its predictive value for patients undergoing surgical aortic valve replacement (SAVR) is unknown. METHODS A total of 2531 consecutive patients were registered in the institutional Society of Thoracic Surgeons database between July 2017 and June 2020. Patients who underwent non-SAVR procedures, had prior pacemaker/implantable cardioverter defibrillator, prior SAVR, no preprocedural CT assessment, or suboptimal CT imaging were excluded. RESULTS A total of 126 SAVR with preprocedural CT assessment were analyzed. Bicuspid aortic valve morphology was confirmed on CT in 59.5% of patients. There were three new PPMIs and five new LBBBs observed after SAVR at the time of discharge. In-hospital mortality was 0.8%. Low left ventricular (LV) ejection fraction (<50%), LV mass index >120 g/m2, large right coronary artery height, and MS length <1.5 mm predicted new PPMI/LBBB. Multivariate analysis showed LV mass index >120 g/m2 (odds ratio: 9.165; 95% confidence interval: 1.644-51.080; P = 0.011) and MS length <1.5 mm (odds ratio: 14.449; 95% confidence interval: 1.632-127.954; P = 0.016) were independent predictors for new PPMI/LBBB. CONCLUSIONS Short MS length on preoperative cardiac CT is a powerful and novel predictor for the risk of new PPMI/LBBB after SAVR. Special care should be taken in patients with short MS length to avoid suture-mediated trauma.

Abstract
Epigenomes enable the rectification of disordered cancer gene expression, thereby providing new targets for pharmacological interventions. The clinical utility of targeting histone H3 lysine trimethylation (H3K27me3) as an epigenetic hallmark has been demonstrated1-7. However, in actual therapeutic settings, the mechanism by which H3K27me3-targeting therapies exert their effects and the response of tumour cells remain unclear. Here we show the potency and mechanisms of action and resistance of the EZH1-EZH2 dual inhibitor valemetostat in clinical trials of patients with adult T cell leukaemia/lymphoma. Administration of valemetostat reduced tumour size and demonstrated durable clinical response in aggressive lymphomas with multiple genetic mutations. Integrative single-cell analyses showed that valemetostat abolishes the highly condensed chromatin structure formed by the plastic H3K27me3 and neutralizes multiple gene loci, including tumour suppressor genes. Nevertheless, subsequent long-term treatment encounters the emergence of resistant clones with reconstructed aggregate chromatin that closely resemble the pre-dose state. Acquired mutations at the PRC2-compound interface result in the propagation of clones with increased H3K27me3 expression. In patients free of PRC2 mutations, TET2 mutation or elevated DNMT3A expression causes similar chromatin recondensation through de novo DNA methylation in the H3K27me3-associated regions. We identified subpopulations with distinct metabolic and gene translation characteristics implicated in primary susceptibility until the acquisition of the heritable (epi)mutations. Targeting epigenetic drivers and chromatin homeostasis may provide opportunities for further sustained epigenetic cancer therapies.

Abstract
This study aims to integrate an open-source software capable of estimating hydrodynamic forces solely from kinematic data with a full-body biomechanical model of the human body to enable inverse dynamic analyses of swimmers. To demonstrate the methodology, intersegmental forces and joint torques of the lower limbs were computed for a six-beat front crawl swimming motion, acquired at LABIOMEP-UP. The hydrodynamic forces obtained compare well with existing numerical literature. The intersegmental forces and joint torques obtained increase from distal to proximal joints. Overall, the results are consistent with the limited literature on swimming biomechanics, which provides confidence in the presented methodology.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Trifluridine/tipiracil (FTD/TPI) and regorafenib (REG) are standard therapies for refractory metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC). No results of large real-world data directly comparing FTD/TPI + bevacizumab (BEV) with FTD/TPI or REG monotherapy have been reported. We evaluated the efficacy and safety of FTD/TPI + BEV in a real-world setting. MATERIALS AND METHODS This retrospective study used a Japanese claims database provided by Medical Data Vision Co., Ltd. (Tokyo, Japan). Eligible patients were aged 20 years and over with a diagnosis of mCRC, and received their first dose of FTD/TPI or REG from 2014 to 2021. The primary endpoint was overall survival (OS) in a propensity score matching (PSM) population in which PSM was carried out by matching using a 1 : 1 ratio for the FTD/TPI + BEV group and the control group (FTD/TPI or REG) by propensity score. To enhance robustness, sensitivity analyses of OS were carried out using the inverse probability treatment weighted (IPTW) approach and the analysis in the all eligible population. Secondary endpoints included time to treatment discontinuation (TTD), incidence of adverse events, and post-treatment. RESULTS Eligible population was 2369 for the FTD/TPI + BEV group and 9318 for the control group. The PSM population was 1787 for each group. Median OS (mOS) was longer in the FTD/TPI + BEV group compared to the control group [17.0 versus 11.6 months, hazard ratio (HR) = 0.70, P < 0.001] in the PSM population. Similarly, mOS was longer for the FTD/TPI + BEV group compared to that for the control group in IPTW analyses and in the all eligible population (both HRs = 0.68). Median TTD was 3.3 months for the FTD/TPI + BEV group and 1.8 months for the control group in the PSM population (P < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS Real-world data showed that FTD/TPI + BEV was significantly associated with OS and TTD compared to FTD/TPI or REG. In clinical practice, FTD/TPI + BEV can be a favorable regimen for refractory mCRC.

Abstract
Classic Hodgkin lymphoma (cHL) is characterized by multinucleated cells called Reed-Sternberg (RS) cells and genetic complexity. Although CD30 also characterizes cHL cells, its biological roles are not fully understood. In this report, we examined the link between CD30 and these characteristics of cHL cells. CD30 stimulation increased multinucleated cells resembling RS cells. We found chromatin bridges, a cause of mitotic errors, among the nuclei of multinucleated cells. CD30 stimulation induced DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs) and chromosomal imbalances. RNA sequencing showed significant changes in the gene expression by CD30 stimulation. We found that CD30 stimulation increased intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS), which induced DSBs and multinucleated cells with chromatin bridges. The PI3K pathway was responsible for CD30-mediated generation of multinucleated cells by ROS. These results suggest that CD30 involves generation of RS cell-like multinucleated cells and chromosomal instability through induction of DSBs by ROS, which subsequently induces chromatin bridges and mitotic error. The results link CD30 not only to the morphological features of cHL cells, but also to the genetic complexity, both of which are characteristic of cHL cells.

Abstract
CD30, a member of the tumor necrosis factor receptor superfamily, plays roles in pro-survival signal induction and cell proliferation in peripheral T-cell lymphoma (PTCL) and adult T-cell leukemia/lymphoma (ATL). Previous studies have identified the functional roles of CD30 in CD30-expressing malignant lymphomas, not only PTCL and ATL, but also Hodgkin lymphoma (HL), anaplastic large cell lymphoma (ALCL), and a portion of diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL). CD30 expression is often observed in virus-infected cells such as human T-cell leukemia virus type 1 (HTLV-1). HTLV-1 is capable of immortalizing lymphocytes and producing malignancy. Some ATL cases caused by HTLV-1 infection overexpress CD30. However, the molecular mechanism-based relationship between CD30 expression and HTLV-1 infection or ATL progression is unclear. Recent findings have revealed super-enhancer-mediated overexpression at the CD30 locus, CD30 signaling via trogocytosis, and CD30 signaling-induced lymphomagenesis in vivo. Successful anti-CD30 antibody-drug conjugate (ADC) therapy for HL, ALCL, and PTCL supports the biological significance of CD30 in these lymphomas. In this review, we discuss the roles of CD30 overexpression and its functions during ATL progression.

Abstract
Adult T-cell leukemia/lymphoma (ATL) develops via stepwise accumulation of gene mutations and chromosome aberrations. However, the molecular mechanisms underlying this tumorigenic process are poorly understood. We previously reported the presence of a biological link between the expression of CD30, which serves as a marker for ATL progression, and the actively proliferating fraction of human T-cell leukemia virus type 1 (HTLV-1)-infected cells that display polylobulation. Here, we demonstrated that CD30 signaling induced chromosomal instability with clonal expansion through DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs) via an increase of intracellular reactive oxygen species. CD30+ ATL cells were composed of subclones with additional genomic aberrations compared with CD30- ATL cells in ATL patients. Furthermore, we found an accumulation of copy number loss of DSB repair-related genes as the disease progressed. Taken together, CD30 expression on ATL cells appears to be correlated with genomic instability, suggesting that CD30 signaling is one of the oncogenic factors of ATL progression with clonal evolution. This study provides new insight into the biological roles of CD30 signaling and could improve our understanding of tumorigenic processes of HTLV-1-infected cells.

Abstract
Both natural viral infections and therapeutic interventions using viral vectors pose significant risks of malignant transformation. Monitoring for clonal expansion of infected cells is important for detecting cancer. Here we developed a novel method of tracking clonality via the detection of transgene integration sites. RAISING (Rapid Amplification of Integration Sites without Interference by Genomic DNA contamination) is a sensitive, inexpensive alternative to established methods. Its compatibility with Sanger sequencing combined with our CLOVA (Clonality Value) software is critical for those without access to expensive high throughput sequencing. We analyzed samples from 688 individuals infected with the retrovirus HTLV-1, which causes adult T-cell leukemia/lymphoma (ATL) to model our method. We defined a clonality value identifying ATL patients with 100% sensitivity and 94.8% specificity, and our longitudinal analysis also demonstrates the usefulness of ATL risk assessment. Future studies will confirm the broad applicability of our technology, especially in the emerging gene therapy sector.

Abstract
Soil moisture is a key factor for mercury (Hg) emission from soil. Despite its significance for Hg emissions, the effect of soil moisture on Hg flux and fractions has not been thoroughly investigated. The objective of this study was to elucidate the influences of soil moisture and temperature on Hg fluxes from soils and Hg fractions. A kinetic study was performed to measure Hg emission fluxes of six soil samples under different temperature (T) (15 °C, 20 °C, 25 °C, 30 °C, and 35 °C) and moisture conditions (0%, 10%, and 20% added water). The results showed that the Hg fluxes increased with increases in T and soil moisture. A linear correlation was found between ln (Hg emission flux) and 1/T for the six soil samples at different moisture contents (R2 = 0.73-0.99). The range of activation energy (Ea) values was 25.31-57.86 kJ/mol. The Hg fractions in soils of different moisture content were determined by a sequential extraction method. The results demonstrated that soil moisture affected the Hg fractions in soils. The Ea values had different relationships with soil moisture in different soils. There were correlations between Ea and the elemental and mercuric sulfide fractions for air-dried soils. However, for moist soils, Ea was negatively correlated with the water-soluble and acid-soluble fractions. Collectively, the combination of the Hg emission kinetics and Hg fraction measurement of different moist soils indicated that Hg emission was affected by both total Hg concentration and Hg fractions.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The aim of this study was to clarify the dynamics of the mitral annulus throughout the cardiac cycle and its relevance to transcatheter mitral valve replacement (TMVR) sizing and case selection. BACKGROUND Limited data are available regarding the relevance of mitral annular (MA) and neo-left ventricular outflow tract (LVOT) dynamics in the overall population presenting with significant mitral valve disease. METHODS Patients attending a combined surgical-transcatheter heart valve clinic for severe symptomatic mitral valve disease were assessed using multiphase computed tomography. The relative influence of MA and neo-LVOT dynamics to TMVR case selection was studied. RESULTS A total of 476 patients with significant mitral valve disease were evaluated. In 99 consecutive patients with severe mitral regurgitation, a 10-phase assessment showed that the mitral annulus was on average largest in late systole. On comparing maximal MA dimension with late systolic dimension, TMVR size assignment changed in 24.2% of patients. If the average MA perimeter was used to determine sizing, 48.5% were excluded because of MA dimension being too large; in a multiphase assessment of the neo-LVOT, an additional 16.2% were excluded on the basis of neo-LVOT dimension. In an expanded series of 312 consecutive patients, selection protocol influenced anatomical exclusion: a manufacturer-proposed early systolic approach excluded 69.2% of patients, whereas a late systolic approach excluded 82.7% of patients, the vast majority because of large mitral annuli. CONCLUSIONS Contemporary TMVR can treat only a minority of patients with severe mitral regurgitation, principally because of limitations of large MA dimension.

Abstract
Conduction disturbances (CDs) after transcatheter artic replacement remain a clinical concern and relatively common complication. A recent meta-analysis showed both new-onset persistent left bundle branch block and new permanent pacemaker implantation were related to all-cause death with risk ratio 1.32 (95% confidence interval [CI] 1.17 to 1.49; P<.001) and 1.17 (95% CI 1.11-1.25; P<.001) at 1 year, respectively. Preprocedural computed tomography imaging can highlight potential risk factors for CDs, such as membranous septum length, device landing zone calcium, and the annulus size/degree of device oversizing.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The impact of balloon post-dilatation (BPD) on short- and long-term valve performance after Sapien 3 (S3) implantation is unknown. This study aimed to evaluate the impact of balloon post-dilatation (BPD) on short- and long-term valve performance after the implantation of S3. METHODS A total of 846 patients implanted with S3 from the OCEAN-TAVI registry were included in this study. The patients were divided into BPD and non-BPD groups. The clinical outcomes and valve functions were compared. RESULTS The BPD group included 173 (20.4%) patients and the non-BPD group comprised 673 (79.6%) patients. The prosthesis-patient mismatch (PPM) rates were significantly lower in the BPD group than in the non-BPD group before and after propensity score matching at in-hospital follow-up (before matching: 12 [7.1%] vs. 108 [16.3%], p = 0.002; after matching: 8 [6.3%] vs. 19 [14.8%], p = 0.027) and at 1-year follow-up (before matching: 14 [12.5%] vs. 112 [23.6%], p = 0.010; after matching: 9 [10.5%] vs. 19 [22.1%], p = 0.039). The rates of acute kidney injury, cardiac tamponade, and in-hospital cardiovascular death were significantly higher in the BPD group than in the non-BPD group (acute kidney injury: 22 [12.7%] vs. 33 [4.9%], p < 0.001; cardiac tamponade: 3 [1.7%] vs. 2 [0.3%], p = 0.028; in-hospital cardiovascular death: 4 [2.3%] vs. 3 [0.4%], p = 0.016). After matching, these clinical outcomes were similar between the BPD and non-BPD groups. CONCLUSIONS The BPD group demonstrated better short- and long-term valve performance. Caution is needed to avoid procedure-related complications in patients undergoing BPD.

Abstract
Vancomycin is associated with nephrotoxicity; however, the influence of the number of combined nephrotoxic agents on the incidence of vancomycin nephrotoxicity has not been clarified. We investigated patient backgrounds in 148 inpatients who received vancomycin treatment. The patients were divided into nephrotoxicity (n=35) and non-nephrotoxicity (n=113) groups. A comparison of the patient backgrounds in the two groups revealed significant differences in weight, changes in serum creatinine before vancomycin administration, blood urea nitrogen to serum creatinine ratio, length of vancomycin therapy, vancomycin trough concentration, and number of combined nephrotoxic agents. Multiple logistic regression analysis using these six factors as autonomous variables showed that the highest vancomycin trough concentration (odds ratio, 1.080; 95% confidence interval, 1.030-1.140; p = 0.003) and the number of combined nephrotoxic agents (odds ratio, 1.590; 95% confidence interval, 1.120-2.260; p = 0.010) were significantly related to nephrotoxicity.

Abstract
We previously indicated that Hodgkin lymphoma (HL) cells contain a small side population (SP) that differentiate into a large major population (MP) with giant Hodgkin and Reed‐Sternberg (H and RS)‐like cells. However, its molecular mechanisms are not fully understood. In this study, we found that intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) are low in the SP compared to the MP. Hydrogen peroxide induces large H‐ and RS‐like cells in HL cell lines, but induces cell death in unrelated lymphoid cell lines. Microarray analyses revealed the enrichment of upregulated genes under hypoxic conditions in the SP compared to the MP, and we verified that the SP cells are hypoxic. Hypoxia inducible factor (HIF)‐1α was preferentially expressed in the SP. CoCl2, a HIF‐1α stabilizer, blunted the effect of hydrogen peroxide. Heme oxygenase‐1 (HO‐1), a scavenger of ROS, was triggered by HIF‐1α. The effect of hydrogen peroxide was inhibited by HO‐1 induction, whereas it was promoted by HO‐1 knockdown. HO‐1 inhibition by zinc protoporphyrin promoted the differentiation and increased ROS. These results stress the unique roles of ROS in the differentiation of HL cells. Immature HL cells are inhibited from differentiation by a reduction of ROS through the induction of HO‐1 via HIF‐1α. The breakdown of this might cause the accumulation of intracellular ROS, resulting in the promotion of HL cell differentiation.

Abstract
Primary biliary cholangitis (PBC) is characterized by the presence of serum anti-mitochondrial autoantibodies (AMAs). To date, four antigens among the 2-oxo-acid dehydrogenase complex family, which commonly have lipoyl domains as an epitope, have been identified as AMA-corresponding antigens (AMA-antigens). It has recently been reported that AMAs react more strongly with certain chemically modified mimics than with the native lipoyl domains in AMA-antigens. Moreover, high concentrations of circulating immune complexes (ICs) in PBC patients have been reported. However, the existence of ICs formed by AMAs and their antigens has not been reported to date. We hypothesized that AMAs and their antigens formed ICs in PBC sera, and analyzed sera of PBC and four autoimmune diseases (Sjögren's syndrome, systemic lupus erythematosus, systemic scleroderma, and rheumatoid arthritis) using immune complexome analysis, in which ICs are separated from serum and are identified by nano-liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry. To correctly assign MS/MS spectra to peptide sequences, we used a protein-search algorithm that including lipoylation and certain xenobiotic modifications. We found three AMA-antigens, the E2 subunit of the pyruvate dehydrogenase complex (PDC-E2), the E2 subunit of the 2-oxo-glutarate dehydrogenase complex (OGDC-E2) and dihydrolipoamide dehydrogenase binding protein (E3BP), by detecting peptides containing lipoylation and xenobiotic modifications from PBC sera. Although the lipoylated sites of these peptides were different from the well-known sites, abnormal lipoylation and xenobiotic modification may lead to production of AMAs and the formation ICs. Further investigation of the lipoylated sites, xenobiotic modifications, and IC formation will lead to deepen our understanding of PBC pathogenesis.

Abstract
Sjögren's syndrome (SS) is a chronic autoimmune disease that mainly damages the salivary and lacrimal glands. Immune complex (IC) formation triggers local inflammation through IC deposition and decreased antigen function. Some ICs can leak from the lesion and into the saliva, but no salivary ICs have been reported to date. We used immune complexome analysis to comprehensively identify antigens incorporated into IC (IC-antigens) in saliva samples from patients with SS (n = 9) or with xerostomia (n = 7). Neutrophil defensin 1 (67%), small proline-rich protein 2D (67%), myeloperoxidase (44%), neutrophil elastase (44%), cathepsin G (33%), nuclear mitotic apparatus 1 (33%) and phosphatidylinositol 4-phosphate 3-kinase C2 domain-containing subunit gamma (33%) were identified as new IC-antigens specifically and frequently detected in the saliva of SS patients. Of these, neutrophil defensin 1, myeloperoxidase, neutrophil elastase and cathepsin G are neutrophil intracellular proteins, which suggests that repeated destruction of neutrophils due to abnormal autoimmunity may be involved in the pathogenesis of SS. We also analyzed serum samples from three SS patients. There was little overlap of IC-antigens between two of the samples (fewer than 30% of the IC-antigens in the saliva samples), suggesting that many ICs are formed locally and independently of the circulation. In addition, we found that four SS-specific salivary antigens show sequence homology with several proteins of oral microbiomes but no antigen has homology with Epstein-Barr virus proteins. The homology between some IC-antigens and oral microbiome proteins may indicate the impact of oral infection on local autoimmunity through molecular mimicry theory.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Recent improvements in devices and medications may diminish the risk of adverse events following percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in women. However, complex calcified coronary lesions are increasingly being encountered in clinical practice, which remain challenging for contemporary PCI. Rotational atherectomy (RA) of severely calcified lesions is an option that facilitates the technical success of PCI. We aimed to examine sex differences in long-term clinical prognoses after PCI with RA in the drug-eluting stent (DES) era. METHODS AND RESULTS We evaluated J2T ROTA registry data from 1,090 patients with severely calcified de novo coronary artery stenoses who underwent PCI using RA at 3 hospitals between 2004 and 2015. After excluding patients who received regular hemodialysis, 788 patients, including 570 men and 218 women, were ultimately analyzed. The primary endpoint was major adverse cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events (MACCE), which included death, acute coronary syndrome (ACS), and stroke. The women were significantly older, and presented more frequently with chronic kidney disease, ACS, atrial fibrillation, lower body mass indexes, and worse lipid profiles than the men. During the observation period, MACCE occurred in 197 patients (25%) (118 deaths, 29 strokes, and 50 ACS). In the unmatched population, women had a higher MACCE rate than men (hazard ratio: 1.48, [95% confidence interval: 1.07-2.06]). However, sex was not associated with MACCE in the propensity score-matched population. CONCLUSION In the DES era, differences between sexes were not observed in relation to long-term MACCE in patients undergoing PCI with RA for severely calcified coronary artery stenoses.

Abstract
Purpose Although several reports have described the relationship between periodontal disease and cardiovascular disease, information about the association between periodontal disease and the progression of degenerative aortic stenosis (AS) is lacking. Therefore, we performed a retrospective, single-center, pilot study to provide insight into this potential association. Methods Data from 45 consecutive patients (19 men; median age, 83 years) with mild or moderate degenerative aortic stenosis were analyzed for a mean observation period of 3.3±1.9 years. The total amount of Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans and Porphyromonas gingivalis and titers of serum immunoglobulin G (IgG) against periodontal bacteria and high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP) were evaluated. Aortic valve area (AVA), maximal velocity (Vmax), mean pressure gradient (mean PG), and the Doppler velocity index (DVI) were evaluated. The change in each parameter per year ([ParameterLATEST–ParameterBASELINE]/Follow-up Years) was calculated from the retrospective follow-up echocardiographic data (baseline vs. the most recently collected data [latest]). Results No correlation was found between the concentration of periodontopathic bacteria in the saliva and AS status/progression. The anti-P. gingivalis antibody titer in the serum showed a significant positive correlation with AVA and DVI. Additionally, there was a negative correlation between the anti-P. gingivalis IgG antibody titer and mean PG. The hs-CRP concentration showed positive correlations with Vmax and mean PG. Meanwhile, a negative correlation was observed between the anti-P. gingivalis IgG antibody titer and ΔAVA/year and Δmean PG/year. The hs-CRP concentration showed positive correlations with Vmax and mean PG, and it was significantly higher in patients with rapid aortic stenosis progression (ΔAVA/year <−0.1) than in their counterparts. Conclusions Our results suggest that periodontopathic bacteria such as A. actinomycetemcomitans and P. gingivalis are not directly related to the status/progression of degenerative AS. However, inflammation and a lower immune response may be associated with disease progression.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Patients with renal insufficiency have poor short-term outcomes after transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR). METHODS Retrospective chart review identified 575 consecutive patients not on hemodialysis who underwent TAVR between September 2014 and January 2017. Outcomes were defined by VARC-2 criteria. Primary outcome of all-cause mortality was evaluated at a median follow-up of 811 days (interquartile range 125-1,151). RESULTS Preprocedural glomerular filtration rate (GFR) was ≥60 ml/min in 51.7%, 30-60 ml/min in 42.1%, and < 30 ml/min in 6.3%. Use of transfemoral access (98.8%) and achieved device success (91.0%) did not differ among groups, but less contrast was used with lower GFR (23 ml [15-33], 24 ml [14-33], 13 ml [8-20]; p < .001). Peri-procedural stroke (0.7%, 2.1%, 11.1%; p < .001) was higher with lower GFR. Core lab analysis of preprocedural computed tomography scans of patients who developed a peri-procedural stroke identified potential anatomic substrate for stroke in three out of four patients with GFR 30-60 ml/min and all three with GFR <30 ml/min (severe atheroma was the most common subtype of anatomical substrate present). Compared to GFR ≥60 ml/min, all-cause mortality was higher with GFR 30-60 ml/min (HR 1.61 [1.00-2.59]; aHR 1.61 [0.91-2.83]) and GFR <30 ml/min (HR 2.41 [1.06-5.48]; aHR 2.34 [0.90-6.09]) but not significant after multivariable adjustment. Follow-up echocardiographic data, available in 63%, demonstrated no difference in structural heart valve deterioration over time among groups. CONCLUSIONS Patients with baseline renal insufficiency remain a challenging population with poor long-term outcomes despite procedural optimization with a transfemoral-first and an extremely low-contrast approach.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Tolvaptan exerts potent diuretic effects in heart failure patients without hemodynamic instability. Nonetheless, its clinical efficacy for acute decompensated heart failure (ADHF) due to severe aortic stenosis (AS) remains unclear. This study aimed to evaluate the short-term effects of tolvaptan in ADHF patients with severe AS.
Methods
The LOw-Dose Tolvaptan (7.5 mg) in Decompensated Heart Failure Patients with Severe Aortic Stenosis (LOHAS) registry is a multicenter (7 centers) prospective registry that assessed the short-term effects of tolvaptan in subjects hospitalized for ADHF with severe AS. A total of 59 subjects were enrolled between September 2014 and December 2017. The primary endpoints were changes in body weight and fluid balance measured daily from baseline up to 4 days.
Results
The median [interquartile range] patient age and aortic valve area were 85.0 [81.0–89.0] years and 0.58 [0.42–0.74] cm2, respectively. Body weight continuously decreased, and fluid balance was maintained from baseline to day 4 (p<0.001, p=0.194, respectively). Median serum B-type natriuretic peptide concentration significantly decreased from 910.5 to 740.0 pg/mL by day 4 (p=0.002). However, systolic blood pressure and heart rate were non-significantly changed (p=0.250, p=0.656, respectively). Hypernatremia (>150 mEq/L) and worsening renal function occurred in 2 (3.4%) and 4 (6.8%) patients, respectively.
Conclusions
Short-term treatment with low-dose tolvaptan is safe and effective, providing stable hemodynamic parameters in patients with ADHF and severe AS.

Abstract
Although global H3K27me3 reprogramming is a hallmark of cancer, no effective therapeutic strategy for H3K27me3-high malignancies harboring EZH2WT/WT has yet been established. We explore epigenome and transcriptome in EZH2WT/WT and EZH2WT/Mu aggressive lymphomas and show that mutual interference and compensatory function of co-expressed EZH1 and EZH2 rearrange their own genome-wide distribution, thereby establishing restricted chromatin and gene expression signatures. Direct comparison of leading compounds introduces potency and a mechanism of action of the EZH1/2 dual inhibitor (valemetostat). The synthetic lethality is observed in all lymphoma models and primary adult T cell leukemia-lymphoma (ATL) cells. Opposing actions of EZH1/2-polycomb and SWI/SNF complexes are required for facultative heterochromatin formation. Inactivation of chromatin-associated genes (ARID1A, SMARCA4/BRG1, SMARCB1/SNF5, KDM6A/UTX, BAP1, KMT2D/MLL2) and oncovirus infection (HTLV-1, EBV) trigger EZH1/2 perturbation and H3K27me3 deposition. Our study provides the mechanism-based rationale for chemical dual targeting of EZH1/2 in cancer epigenome.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The reliable diagnosis of human T-cell leukemia virus type 1 (HTLV-1) infection is important, particularly as it can be vertically transmitted by breast feeding mothers to their infants. However, current diagnosis in Japan requires a confirmatory western blot (WB) test after screening/primary testing for HTLV-1 antibodies, but this test often gives indeterminate results. Thus, this collaborative study evaluated the reliability of diagnostic assays for HTLV-1 infection, including a WB-based one, along with line immunoassay (LIA) as an alternative to WB for confirmatory testing. RESULTS Using peripheral blood samples from blood donors and pregnant women previously serologically screened and subjected to WB analysis, we analyzed the performances of 10 HTLV-1 antibody assay kits commercially available in Japan. No marked differences in the performances of eight of the screening kits were apparent. However, LIA determined most of the WB-indeterminate samples to be conclusively positive or negative (an 88.0% detection rate). When we also compared the sensitivity to HTLV-1 envelope gp21 with that of other antigens by LIA, the sensitivity to gp21 was the strongest. When we also compared the sensitivity to envelope gp46 by LIA with that of WB, LIA showed stronger sensitivity to gp46 than WB did. These findings indicate that LIA is an alternative confirmatory test to WB analysis without gp21. Therefore, we established a novel diagnostic test algorithm for HTLV-1 infection in Japan, including both the performance of a confirmatory test where LIA replaced WB on primary test-reactive samples and an additional decision based on a standardized nucleic acid detection step (polymerase chain reaction, PCR) on the confirmatory test-indeterminate samples. The final assessment of the clinical usefulness of this algorithm involved performing WB analysis, LIA, and/or PCR in parallel for confirmatory testing of known reactive samples serologically screened at clinical laboratories. Consequently, LIA followed by PCR (LIA/PCR), but neither WB/PCR nor PCR/LIA, was found to be the most reliable diagnostic algorithm. CONCLUSIONS Because the above results show that our novel algorithm is clinically useful, we propose that it is recommended for solving the aforementioned WB-associated reliability issues and for providing a more rapid and precise diagnosis of HTLV-1 infection.

Abstract
Approximately 10-20 million of Human T-cell leukemia virus type-1 (HTLV-1)-infected carriers have been previously reported, and approximately 5% of these carriers develop adult T-cell leukemia/lymphoma (ATL) with a characteristic poor prognosis. In Japan, Southern blotting has long been routinely performed for detection of clonally expanded ATL cells in vivo, and as a confirmatory diagnostic test for ATL. However, alternative methods to Southern blotting, such as sensitive, quantitative, and rapid analytical methods, are currently required in clinical practice. In this study, we developed a high-throughput method called rapid amplification of integration site (RAIS) that could amplify HTLV-1-integrated fragments within 4 h and detect the integration sites in > 0.16% of infected cells. Furthermore, we established a novel quantification method for HTLV-1 clonality using Sanger sequencing with RAIS products, and the validity of the quantification method was confirmed by comparing it with next-generation sequencing in terms of the clonality. Thus, we believe that RAIS has a high potential for use as an alternative routine molecular confirmatory test for the clonality analysis of HTLV-1-infected cells.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The occurrence of bile duct injury (BDI) during laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC) is an important medical issue. Expert surgeons prevent intraoperative BDI by identifying four landmarks. The present study aimed to develop a system that outlines these landmarks on endoscopic images in real time. METHODS An intraoperative landmark indication system was constructed using YOLOv3, which is an algorithm for object detection based on deep learning. The training datasets comprised approximately 2000 endoscopic images of the region of Calot's triangle in the gallbladder neck obtained from 76 videos of LC. The YOLOv3 learning model with the training datasets was applied to 23 videos of LC that were not used in training, to evaluate the estimation accuracy of the system to identify four landmarks: the cystic duct, common bile duct, lower edge of the left medial liver segment, and Rouviere's sulcus. Additionally, we constructed a prototype and used it in a verification experiment in an operation for a patient with cholelithiasis. RESULTS The YOLOv3 learning model was quantitatively and subjectively evaluated in this study. The average precision values for each landmark were as follows: common bile duct: 0.320, cystic duct: 0.074, lower edge of the left medial liver segment: 0.314, and Rouviere's sulcus: 0.101. The two expert surgeons involved in the annotation confirmed consensus regarding valid indications for each landmark in 22 of the 23 LC videos. In the verification experiment, the use of the intraoperative landmark indication system made the surgical team more aware of the landmarks. CONCLUSIONS Intraoperative landmark indication successfully identified four landmarks during LC, which may help to reduce the incidence of BDI, and thus, increase the safety of LC. The novel system proposed in the present study may prevent BDI during LC in clinical practice.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Right atrial (RA) deformation by two-dimensional speckle tracking echocardiography has a relatively new technique to evaluate right heart function with pulmonary hypertension and cardiomyopathy. Reproducibility between observers of this technique is important to develop into a robust and reliable tool. Experience may pose significant challenges.
Purpose
The aim of this study is to evaluate reproducibility of RA strain (global and regional) between novice and expert.
Methods
One hundred thirty-three patients (n = 133) underwent 2D-Speckle tracking derived RA strain analysis by 3 independent blinded readers (expert and 2 novices). The novice observers were medical interns with no prior experience in performing strain analysis. Echocardiographic images were acquired from iE33 (Philips Medical System) but were analysed offline using single vendor dependent software (QLAB version 11.0; Philips Medical System). The result of novice observer was calculated by the average of novice observers. RA strain parameters were assessed: global RA strain and segmental (Basal, Mid, Roof). Intraobserver and interobserver analyses were performed using intra class correlation coefficients (ICC) between expert and novice.
Results
Expert and novice observer demonstrated good interobserver reproducibility of global RA strain (ICC 0.88) and segmental parameters (Basal: ICC 0.89, Mid: ICC 0.87, Roof: ICC 0.84). Of all parameters, the basal segment of RA strain showed the greatest interobserver agreement. Intraobserver agreement for novice observer was excellent for global RA strain and segmental parameters (ICC > 0.88).
Conclusions
Global RA strain and segmental parameters were highly reproducible by novice and expert strain observer.

Abstract
We recently took advantage of the universal expression of cell adhesion molecule 1 (CADM1) by CD4+ cells infected with HTLV‐1 and the downregulation of CD7 expression that corresponds with the oncogenic stage of HTLV‐1‐infected cells to develop a flow cytometric system using CADM1 versus CD7 plotting of CD4+ cells. We risk‐stratified HTLV‐1 asymptomatic carriers (AC) and indolent adult T‐cell leukemia/lymphoma (ATL) cases based on the CADM1+ percentage, in which HTLV‐1‐infected clones are efficiently enriched. AC and indolent ATL cases were initially classified according to their CADM1+ cell percentage. Follow‐up clinical and flow cytometric data were obtained for 71 cases. In G1 (CADM1+ ≤ 10%) and G2 (10% < CADM1+ ≤ 25%) cases, no apparent clinical disease progression was observed. In G3 (25% < CADM1+ ≤ 50%) cases, five out of nine (55.5%) cases progressed from AC to smoldering‐type ATL. In G4 (50% < CADM1+) cases, the cumulative incidence of receiving systemic chemotherapy at 3 years was 28.4%. Our results indicate that the percentage of the CD4+CADM1+ population predicts clinical disease progression: G1 and G2 cases, including AC cases, are stable and considered to be at low risk; G3 cases, including advanced AC cases and smoldering‐type ATL cases based on the Shimoyama criteria, are considered to have intermediate risk; and G4 cases, which are mainly indolent ATL cases, are unstable and at high risk of acute transformation.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Liver stiffness is reported to be associated with right atrial pressure and worse prognosis of heart failure. Fibrosis-4 (FIB4) index (age (years) × aspartate aminotransferase (IU/L)/platelet count (109/L) × square root of alanine aminotransferase (IU/L)) is known as a useful and simple marker for evaluating liver stiffness. However, the association between FIB4 index and prognosis in heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) was not elucidated.
Purpose
This study aimed to clarity the association between FIB4 index and right ventricular (RV) function and major adverse cardiac events (MACE) of HFpEF.
Method
From February 2012 to December 2015, 132 subjects diagnosed as HFpEF after hospitalization of acute decompensation were enrolled (79 years, 59 male). Subjects performed thoracic surgery or percutaneous coronary intervention within half a year and died before discharge were excluded. All subjects were measured FIB4 index and tricuspid annular plane systolic excursion (TAPSE) to assess RV function before discharge. In addition, patients were classified into two groups: high-(≥3.01, n=52) and low-FIB4 index groups (<3.01, n=80). MACE incidence during the follow-up period were compared between these groups.
Results
Patient with high-FIB4 index were older and higher level of blood pressure. There was no difference in prevalence rates of history of liver disease. In multivariate Linear regression analysis, FIB4 index was significantly association with TAPSE independently confounding factors. Kaplan-Meier analysis showed that patients with high-FIB4 index experienced more CV events during the 1734 days of follow-up (42.3% vs 26.2%, p=0.028) (figure).
Kaplan-Meier curve freedom from MACE
Conclusions
FIB4 index is associated with RV dysfunction and a high risk of future CV event of HFpEF.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Conventional diuretic therapy for low-flow (LF) severe aortic stenosis (SAS) often has an inadequate effect or causes hemodynamic instability. Tolvaptan is used for acute heart failure in addition to conventional diuretics in Japan, and it does not cause intravascular dehydration.
Purpose
This study aimed to retrospectively investigate the safety and efficacy of tolvaptan in the acute phase patients with SAS and compared LF-SAS with normal-flow (NF) SAS.
Methods
56 consecutive SAS patients are analyzed. The primary endpoints were adverse clinical events (death, worsening heart failure, worsening renal failure, fatal arrhythmia, cardiogenic or hypovolemic shock, and use of inotropic agents) and the volume of urine and fluid balance within 48 hours of tolvaptan administration (Figure).
Results
Among 56 patients, 16 had LF-SAS (29%), and 40 had NF-SAS (71%). Severe adverse clinical events were not observed 48 hours after tolvaptan administration. In both groups, the urine volume significantly increased after tolvaptan administration in comparison to 24 hours before tolvaptan administration (both, p<0.01). There were no changes in the urine volume during the initial 24 and 48 hours. In the LF-SAS group, tolvaptan resulted in a significant decrease in fluid balance during the initial 24 and 48 hours compared to 24 hours before tolvaptan administration (p<0.05).
Treatment and data collection protocols
Conclusion
Adding tolvaptan to conventional treatment leads to an increase in urine output and a decreased fluid balance without hemodynamic instability in patients with LF-SAS.

Abstract
BACKGROUND We aimed to assess the impact of scoring balloon angioplasty (SBA) after rotational atherectomy (RA) on long-term clinical outcomes in patients who underwent percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) using second-generation drug-eluting stents (DES). The long-term outcomes associated with SBA after RA in severely calcified lesions is unknown. METHODS Using the J2T ROTA registry data, we evaluated the clinical events of patients who underwent PCI using RA for heavily calcified lesions from January 2004 to December 2015. A total of 307 patients who underwent PCI with second-generation DES were analyzed and divided into the SBA (n = 96) and conventional balloon angioplasty (CBA) groups (n = 211). Eighty-two and 189 patients comprised the "SBA after small burr (SBA-SB)" and "CBA after small burr (CBA-SB)" subgroups, respectively, for the subgroup analysis. Study endpoints were incidence of 3-year major adverse cardiac events (MACE), target vessel revascularization (TVR), and target lesion revascularization (TLR). RESULTS Kaplan-Meier analysis revealed that the incidence of 3-year cumulative MACE, TVR, and TLR were comparable between groups, and that the incidences of 3-year cumulative MACE, TVR, and TLR were significantly lower in the SBA-SB subgroup than in the CBA-SB subgroup (log-rank p = 0.008; log-rank p = 0.047; log-rank p = 0.045; respectively). Multivariate Cox regression model indicated that SBA after RA was an independent predictor of MACE (hazard ratio: 0.337; 95% confidence interval: 0.139 to 0.817; p = 0.016). CONCLUSIONS Additional SBA following RA was associated with lower MACE incidence in patients undergoing RA with a small-sized burr.

Abstract
Pre-procedural valvuloarterial impedance (Zva) is considered as a useful predictor of mortality in patients diagnosed as having severe aortic stenosis (AS) who undergo transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI). However, the prognostic significance of post-procedural Zva remains unclear. We aimed to evaluate the prognostic significance of Zva after TAVI. We retrospectively analyzed the clinical and echocardiographic data of 1004 consecutive elderly patients (median 84 years old, 27.5% men) who underwent TAVI for severe symptomatic AS. Zva was calculated after TAVI, and patients were divided into three groups based on tertile values: the high [> 3.33 (n = 335)], intermediate [2.49-3.33 (n = 334)], and low Zva groups [< 2.49 (n = 335)]. The estimated 2-year all-cause and cardiovascular mortalities using Kaplan-Meier analysis were 16.2% [95% confidence interval (CI) 11.8-20.4] and 5.9% (95% CI 3.2-8.6), respectively. There were no significant intergroup differences in each endpoint (long-rank p = 0.518 for all-cause mortality, p = 0.757 for cardiovascular mortality). Multivariable Cox regression analyzes with adjustments of patient characteristics and medications showed that the post-procedural Zva was not associated with the 2-year all-cause mortality [intermediate Zva group versus (vs.) low Zva group: adjusted hazard ratio (aHR) = 1.34, 95% CI 0.75-2.40, p = 0.316; high Zva group vs. low Zva group: aHR = 1.17, 95% CI 0.64-2.16, p = 0.613] and cardiovascular mortality (intermediate Zva group vs. low Zva group: aHR = 1.50, 95% CI 0.56-4.06, p = 0.421; high Zva group vs. low Zva group: aHR = 1.25, 95% CI 0.43-3.65, p = 0.682). Our results suggest that post-procedural Zva was not associated with 2-year all-cause or cardiovascular mortalities in patients with severe symptomatic AS who underwent TAVI.

Abstract
Quantitative PCR (qPCR) of human T-cell leukemia virus type 1 (HTLV-1) provirus is used for HTLV-1 testing and for assessment of risk of HTLV-1-related diseases. In this study, a reference material was developed for standardizing HTLV-1 qPCR. Freeze-dried TL-Om1 cells diluted with Jurkat cells were prepared and an assigned value for proviral load (PVL) of 2.71 copies/100 cells was determined by digital PCR. Nine Japanese laboratories using their own methods evaluated the PVLs of this reference material as 1.08-3.49 copies/100 cells. The maximum difference between laboratories was 3.2-fold. Correcting measured PVLs by using a formula incorporating the assigned value of this reference material should minimize such discrepancies.

Abstract
AIM Most patients with dementia frequently encounter various problems in their daily lives. Those troubles embarrass both the patients and their families, and cause problems for society. However, there have been few scientific reports on the difficulties in the daily life of patients with dementia. Therefore, we tried to clarify the frequency and characteristics of troubles experienced by patients with dementia. METHODS Seven medical centers treating dementia patients in Okayama Prefecture, Japan, participated in this survey. A total of 737 patients were placed in one of the three groups: a dementia group (n = 478), a mild cognitive impairment group (n = 199) and a control group (n = 60). The frequency of 13 difficulties was scored for each patient. RESULTS Among normal participants, no person caused these problems once a year or more frequently. "Massive, recurrent buying" and "acts that risk causing a fire" were reported once a year or more for >10% of mild cognitive impairment patients. "Troubles with wealth management" and "troubles with money management" were the most frequent problems of dementia patients. CONCLUSIONS Several problems are already sometimes encountered in patients with mild cognitive impairment. It would be useful to know which social difficulties are often seen in dementia patients in order to protect the safety of the patients. It is always difficult to balance respecting the autonomy of dementia patients and ensuring their safely. Geriatr Gerontol Int 2019; 19: 113-118.
