Abstract
Endochondral ossification is a developmental process in the skeletal system and bone marrow of vertebrates. During endochondral ossification, primitive cartilaginous anlages derived from mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) undergo vascular invasion and ossification. In vitro regeneration of endochondral ossification is beneficial for research on the skeletal system and bone marrow development as well as their clinical aspects. However, to achieve the regeneration of endochondral ossification, a stem cell-based artificial cartilage (cartilage organoid, Cart-Org) that possesses an endochondral ossification phenotype is required. Here, we modified a conventional 3D culture method to create stem cell-based Cart-Org by mixing it with a basement membrane extract (BME) and further characterized its chondrogenic and ossification properties. BME enlarged and matured the bone marrow MSC-based Cart-Orgs without any shape abnormalities. Histological analysis using Alcian blue staining showed that the production of cartilaginous extracellular matrices was enhanced in Cart-Org treated with BME. Transcriptome analysis using RNA sequencing revealed that BME altered the gene expression pattern of Cart-Org to a dominant chondrogenic state. BME triggered the activation of the SMAD pathway and inhibition of the NK-κB pathway, which resulted in the upregulation of SOX9, COL2A1, and ACAN in Cart-Org. BME also facilitated the upregulation of genes associated with hypertrophic chondrocytes (IHH, PTH1R, and COL10A1) and ossification (SP7, ALPL, and MMP13). Our findings indicate that BME promotes cartilaginous maturation and further ossification of bone marrow MSC-based Cart-Org, suggesting that Cart-Org treated with BME possesses the phenotype of endochondral ossification.

Variability in combinations of APTT reagent and substrate plasma for a one-stage clotting assay to measure factor VIII products. Int J Lab Hematol 2024.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION An investigation of the suitability of reagents for measuring FVIII products in a one-stage clotting assay (OSA) showed variations in their FVIII activity (FVIII:C). Most studies have focused on the activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT) reagent rather than FVIII-deficient plasma (F8DP), even though the APTT-based OSA is comprised of APTT reagents and factor-deficient plasma. AIM A single-centre study was conducted to clarify variations in measurements of FVIII products in an OSA using a total of 12 reagent combinations, including four APTT reagents and three types of F8DP. METHODS FVIII:C in nine types of FVIII product-spiked plasma was measured using an OSA with four different APTT reagents and three types of F8DP. RESULTS F8DP-dependent variations were found in addition to differences derived from APTT reagents. Variations in target recovery (TR) were observed for NovoEight®, Eloctate®, and Jivi®. Reduced TR for Jivi was found only for Pathromtin SL in combination with congenital F8DP (F8DP-3). This lower TR was not observed with alternative manufacturing lots of F8DP-3. The reduced TR for Jivi might be related to impaired contact activation due to lower factor XI activity in F8DP-3. CONCLUSION In addition to APTT reagents, variations in F8DPs used for OSAs can also affect FVIII:C results. F8DPs as well as the APTT reagent used for OSA should be chosen with caution, and laboratories should evaluate reagents for F8DPs as they currently do for APTT reagents, especially when lot changes occur.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Sodium-glucose co-transporter-2 (SGLT2) inhibitors reduce progression of chronic kidney disease and the risk of cardiovascular morbidity and mortality in a wide range of patients. However, their effects on kidney disease progression in some patients with chronic kidney disease are unclear because few clinical kidney outcomes occurred among such patients in the completed trials. In particular, some guidelines stratify their level of recommendation about who should be treated with SGLT2 inhibitors based on diabetes status and albuminuria. We aimed to assess the effects of empagliflozin on progression of chronic kidney disease both overall and among specific types of participants in the EMPA-KIDNEY trial. METHODS EMPA-KIDNEY, a randomised, controlled, phase 3 trial, was conducted at 241 centres in eight countries (Canada, China, Germany, Italy, Japan, Malaysia, the UK, and the USA), and included individuals aged 18 years or older with an estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) of 20 to less than 45 mL/min per 1·73 m2, or with an eGFR of 45 to less than 90 mL/min per 1·73 m2 with a urinary albumin-to-creatinine ratio (uACR) of 200 mg/g or higher. We explored the effects of 10 mg oral empagliflozin once daily versus placebo on the annualised rate of change in estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR slope), a tertiary outcome. We studied the acute slope (from randomisation to 2 months) and chronic slope (from 2 months onwards) separately, using shared parameter models to estimate the latter. Analyses were done in all randomly assigned participants by intention to treat. EMPA-KIDNEY is registered at ClinicalTrials.gov, NCT03594110. FINDINGS Between May 15, 2019, and April 16, 2021, 6609 participants were randomly assigned and then followed up for a median of 2·0 years (IQR 1·5-2·4). Prespecified subgroups of eGFR included 2282 (34·5%) participants with an eGFR of less than 30 mL/min per 1·73 m2, 2928 (44·3%) with an eGFR of 30 to less than 45 mL/min per 1·73 m2, and 1399 (21·2%) with an eGFR 45 mL/min per 1·73 m2 or higher. Prespecified subgroups of uACR included 1328 (20·1%) with a uACR of less than 30 mg/g, 1864 (28·2%) with a uACR of 30 to 300 mg/g, and 3417 (51·7%) with a uACR of more than 300 mg/g. Overall, allocation to empagliflozin caused an acute 2·12 mL/min per 1·73 m2 (95% CI 1·83-2·41) reduction in eGFR, equivalent to a 6% (5-6) dip in the first 2 months. After this, it halved the chronic slope from -2·75 to -1·37 mL/min per 1·73 m2 per year (relative difference 50%, 95% CI 42-58). The absolute and relative benefits of empagliflozin on the magnitude of the chronic slope varied significantly depending on diabetes status and baseline levels of eGFR and uACR. In particular, the absolute difference in chronic slopes was lower in patients with lower baseline uACR, but because this group progressed more slowly than those with higher uACR, this translated to a larger relative difference in chronic slopes in this group (86% [36-136] reduction in the chronic slope among those with baseline uACR <30 mg/g compared with a 29% [19-38] reduction for those with baseline uACR ≥2000 mg/g; ptrend<0·0001). INTERPRETATION Empagliflozin slowed the rate of progression of chronic kidney disease among all types of participant in the EMPA-KIDNEY trial, including those with little albuminuria. Albuminuria alone should not be used to determine whether to treat with an SGLT2 inhibitor. FUNDING Boehringer Ingelheim and Eli Lilly.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The EMPA-KIDNEY trial showed that empagliflozin reduced the risk of the primary composite outcome of kidney disease progression or cardiovascular death in patients with chronic kidney disease mainly through slowing progression. We aimed to assess how effects of empagliflozin might differ by primary kidney disease across its broad population. METHODS EMPA-KIDNEY, a randomised, controlled, phase 3 trial, was conducted at 241 centres in eight countries (Canada, China, Germany, Italy, Japan, Malaysia, the UK, and the USA). Patients were eligible if their estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) was 20 to less than 45 mL/min per 1·73 m2, or 45 to less than 90 mL/min per 1·73 m2 with a urinary albumin-to-creatinine ratio (uACR) of 200 mg/g or higher at screening. They were randomly assigned (1:1) to 10 mg oral empagliflozin once daily or matching placebo. Effects on kidney disease progression (defined as a sustained ≥40% eGFR decline from randomisation, end-stage kidney disease, a sustained eGFR below 10 mL/min per 1·73 m2, or death from kidney failure) were assessed using prespecified Cox models, and eGFR slope analyses used shared parameter models. Subgroup comparisons were performed by including relevant interaction terms in models. EMPA-KIDNEY is registered with ClinicalTrials.gov, NCT03594110. FINDINGS Between May 15, 2019, and April 16, 2021, 6609 participants were randomly assigned and followed up for a median of 2·0 years (IQR 1·5-2·4). Prespecified subgroupings by primary kidney disease included 2057 (31·1%) participants with diabetic kidney disease, 1669 (25·3%) with glomerular disease, 1445 (21·9%) with hypertensive or renovascular disease, and 1438 (21·8%) with other or unknown causes. Kidney disease progression occurred in 384 (11·6%) of 3304 patients in the empagliflozin group and 504 (15·2%) of 3305 patients in the placebo group (hazard ratio 0·71 [95% CI 0·62-0·81]), with no evidence that the relative effect size varied significantly by primary kidney disease (pheterogeneity=0·62). The between-group difference in chronic eGFR slopes (ie, from 2 months to final follow-up) was 1·37 mL/min per 1·73 m2 per year (95% CI 1·16-1·59), representing a 50% (42-58) reduction in the rate of chronic eGFR decline. This relative effect of empagliflozin on chronic eGFR slope was similar in analyses by different primary kidney diseases, including in explorations by type of glomerular disease and diabetes (p values for heterogeneity all >0·1). INTERPRETATION In a broad range of patients with chronic kidney disease at risk of progression, including a wide range of non-diabetic causes of chronic kidney disease, empagliflozin reduced risk of kidney disease progression. Relative effect sizes were broadly similar irrespective of the cause of primary kidney disease, suggesting that SGLT2 inhibitors should be part of a standard of care to minimise risk of kidney failure in chronic kidney disease.

Abstract
The intertwining between spin, charge, and lattice degrees of freedom can give rise to unusual macroscopic quantum states, including high-temperature superconductivity and quantum anomalous Hall effects. Recently, a charge density wave (CDW) has been observed in the kagome antiferromagnet FeGe, indicative of possible intertwining physics. An outstanding question is that whether magnetic correlation is fundamental for the spontaneous spatial symmetry breaking orders. Here, utilizing elastic and high-resolution inelastic x-ray scattering, we observe a c-axis superlattice vector that coexists with the 2[Formula: see text]2[Formula: see text]1 CDW vectors in the kagome plane. Most interestingly, between the magnetic and CDW transition temperatures, the phonon dynamical structure factor shows a giant phonon-energy hardening and a substantial phonon linewidth broadening near the c-axis wavevectors, both signaling the spin-phonon coupling. By first principles and model calculations, we show that both the static spin polarization and dynamic spin excitations intertwine with the phonon to drive the spatial symmetry breaking in FeGe.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Although patients with haemophilia are known to develop hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) at a lower age than patients without, there are few reports on the clinical course and prognosis of HCC. AIM We aimed to investigate the clinical course and prognosis of patients with HCC and haemophilia. METHODS Twenty-two patients with haemophilia, who were initially diagnosed with HCC between 2003 and 2021, were included. Their clinical courses and prognoses were retrospectively analysed. The results were compared with those of the 24th Nationwide Follow-up Survey of Primary Liver Cancer. RESULTS All 22 patients were male; of these, 20 patients had haemophilia A, and 2 had haemophilia B. The mean age of diagnosis was 63 years (range 45-78 years) which is lower than the mean of 72 years reported in the Nationwide Survey. The mean diameter of the largest tumour was 30 mm (range 11-70 mm), and 18 tumours (82%) were solitary at the initial diagnosis. Standard treatments for HCC were performed in all patients. Sixty-one transarterial chemoembolisation, 28 RFA, 10 hepatectomies, and 2 radiation treatments were performed, and molecular-targeted agents were administered to 5 patients during their clinical courses. No deaths were associated with complications of HCC treatments. The median survival time after initial treatment was 6.4 years (range 0.9-18.7 years) which did not differ much from the median survival time of 5.8 years in the Nationwide Survey. CONCLUSION Standard treatment for HCC could improve the prognosis of patients with HCC and haemophilia.

Abstract
Gene aberrations of B-cell regulators and growth signal components such as the JAK-STAT pathway are frequently found in B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (B-ALL). EBF1 is a B-cell regulator that regulates the expression of PAX5 and co-operates with PAX5 to regulate B-cell differentiation. Here, we analyzed the function of the fusion protein of EBF1 and JAK2, EBF1-JAK2 (E-J). E-J caused constitutive activation of JAK-STAT and MAPK pathways and induced autonomous cell growth in a cytokine-dependent cell line. E-J did not affect the transcriptional activity of EBF1 but inhibited that of PAX5. Both the physical interaction of E-J with PAX5 and kinase activity of E-J were required for E-J to inhibit PAX5 function, although the detailed mechanism of inhibition remains unclear. Importantly, gene set enrichment analysis using the results of our previous RNA-seq data of 323 primary BCR-ABL1-negative ALL samples demonstrated repression of the transcriptional target genes of PAX5 in E-J-positive ALL cells, which suggests that E-J also inhibited PAX5 function in ALL cells. Our results shed new light on the mechanisms of differentiation block by kinase fusion proteins.

Abstract
BACKGROUND It can be difficult to diagnose coronary artery disease in patients with acute coronary syndrome if coronary angiography does not identify stenosis. Coronary inflammation, which can contribute to the pathogenesis of coronary artery disease and acute coronary syndrome, can be quantified using the perivascular fat attenuation index. Furthermore, the perivascular fat attenuation index is a marker for all-cause mortality, cardiac-related mortality and impaired global coronary flow reserve. CASE PRESENTATION Here we report a case of a patient presenting with symptoms of acute coronary syndrome. The patient had hypokinesis of the lateral-posterior wall of the left ventricle, decreased myocardial perfusion in the posterior wall myocardium and elevated myocardial troponin-T and creatine phosphokinase levels. However, coronary computed tomography angiography did not identify arterial stenosis. The patient did have an increased perivascular fat attenuation index, indicating coronary inflammation. Moreover, the fat attenuation index was higher around the left circumflex artery than around the right coronary artery or left anterior descending artery. Intravascular ultrasonography identified an intramural haematoma, leading to a diagnosis of type 3 spontaneous coronary artery dissection in the left circumflex artery. CONCLUSIONS Perivascular fat attenuation index may be a useful tool to help identify and localise disease-causing lesions, and to direct further testing to confirm a diagnosis of spontaneous coronary artery dissection in acute coronary syndrome patients without significant arterial stenosis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Tranexamic acid (TXA) is an antifibrinolytic drug that blocks lysine-binding sites on the profibrinolytic enzyme plasminogen. Aortic diseases with chronic consumption coagulopathy may lead to disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC) and cause fatal bleeding. Although the use of antifibrinolytic agents in DIC is generally not recommended due to enhanced fibrin deposition risking thrombotic symptoms, the efficacy of TXA has been reported in several cases of DIC with aortic diseases. However, the efficacy and safety of TXA for bleeding symptoms of chronic consumption coagulopathy with aortic diseases have not been studied in detail. METHODS We evaluated the efficacy of TXA in 14 patients with chronic consumptive coagulopathy due to aortic disease complicated by bleeding symptoms. Changes in coagulation and fibrinolysis parameters from baseline were analyzed with Wilcoxon matched-pairs signed-rank tests, excluding missing values. Kaplan-Meier curves were used to analyze overall survival. RESULTS Median age was 78.5 years (range, 66-89 years) and median observation period was 448 days (range, 0-2282 days). Twelve patients had chronic renal failure and 1 patient had chronic liver failure. Before starting treatment, median Japanese Ministry of Health and Welfare DIC diagnostic criteria score was 8 (range, 4-11) and median platelet count was 64 × 109/L (range, 25-97 × 109/L). Twelve patients underwent evaluation of bleeding symptoms after introduction of TXA, and 10 of those 12 patients showed improved bleeding tendencies within 30 days (median, 5.0 days). One patient with chronic liver failure showed worsening of bleeding symptoms. Although only one patient was initiated TXA in combination with anticoagulants, no significant worsening of thrombotic events was observed within 30 days. CONCLUSIONS TXA therapy appears effective against chronic consumptive coagulopathy with bleeding due to aortic disease, with few side effects.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Von Willebrand factor (VWF) is a multimeric glycoprotein that plays important roles in hemostasis and thrombosis. C-terminal interchain-disulfide bonds in the cystine knot (CK) domain are essential for VWF dimerization. Previous studies have reported that missense variants of cysteine in the CK domain disrupt the intrachain-disulfide bond and cause type 3 von Willebrand disease (VWD). However, type 3 VWD-associated noncysteine substitution variants in the CK domain have not been reported. OBJECTIVE To investigate the molecular mechanism of a novel non-cysteine variant in the CK domain, VWF c.8254 G>A (p.Gly2752Ser), which was identified in a patient with type 3 VWD as homozygous. METHODS Genetic analysis was performed by whole exome sequencing and Sanger sequencing. VWF multimer analysis was performed using SDS-agarose electrophoresis. VWF production and subcellular localization were analyzed using ex vivo endothelial colony forming cells (ECFCs) and an in vitro recombinant VWF (rVWF) expression system. RESULTS The patient was homozygous for VWF-Gly2752Ser. Plasma VWF enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay showed that the VWF antigen level of the patient was 1.2% compared with healthy subjects. A tiny amount of VWF was identified in the patient's ECFC. Multimer analysis revealed that the circulating VWF-Gly2752Ser presented only low molecular weight multimers. Subcellular localization analysis of VWF-Gly2752Ser-transfected cell lines showed that rVWF-Gly2752Ser was severely impaired in its ER-to-Golgi trafficking. CONCLUSION VWF-Gly2752Ser causes severe secretory impairment because of its dimerization failure. This is the first report of a VWF variant with a noncysteine substitution in the CK domain that causes type 3 VWD.

Abstract
Coronary artery calcification, an established marker of atherosclerotic plaque burden associated with increased risk of coronary artery disease, is routinely evaluated using electron beam computerized tomography or multidetector computed tomography (CT). However, aortic calcification, which is also a risk factor for adverse cardiac events, is not frequently assessed, despite being easily detected via standard chest radiography. We therefore sought to clarify the association between aortic calcification and significant coronary artery calcification to determine the feasibility of performing chest radiography to evaluate the risk of future cardiovascular events. Data from 682 consecutive patients who underwent cardiac CT scanning at our institution from May to September 2012 were included in this cross-sectional analysis. Electrocardiographic-gated CT was used to qualitatively evaluate calcification in 6 aortic segments. Cardiac contrast-ehnanced CT was performed to identify significant calcification of the coronary artery. Calcification was quantified by calculating the Agatston score, and the relationship between significant coronary artery calcification and calcification at each aortic site was evaluated. Among the aortic sites, calcification was most commonly observed in the aortic arch (77.4% of patients). Significant coronary artery calcification was observed in 267 patients (39.1%). Calcification in the ascending aorta, aortic arch, descending aorta, abdominal aorta, and aortic valve were significantly associated with the presence of coronary artery calcification after adjustment for cardiovascular risk factors and statin use (odds ratios [95% confidence intervals] 4.21 [2.55, 6.93], 1.65 [1.01, 2.69], 2.14 [1.36, 3.36], 2.87 [1.83, 4.50], and 3.32 [2.02, 5.46], respectively). Mitral valve calcification was weakly but nonsignificantly associated with coronary artery calcification (odds ratio 1.84 [95% confidence interval 0.94, 3.62]). Calcification of each aortic segment assessed was significantly associated with Agatston score ≥ 100. Aortic calcification was associated with coronary artery calcification. Calcification of the aortic arch, which can be readily detected by routine chest radiography, may be associated with coronary artery calcification and its assessment should therefore be considered to identify patients at increased risk of cardiovascular events. Further studies are warranted to confirm these findings.

Abstract
Circulating microRNAs (miRNAs) have been used as biomarkers for various diseases and physiological conditions in humans and mice; studies in domestic animals, particularly cattle, are limited. The importance of early pregnancy diagnosis (especially within the 21-d cow estrous cycle) in the livestock industry is extremely high. This study compared the circulating miRNAs in bred non-pregnant and pregnant Japanese Black cows, explored miRNAs as biomarkers for early pregnancy diagnosis, and established a measurement system that included selecting an appropriate reference miRNA and determining the effect of hemolysis on miRNA quantification in plasma. miRNA was extracted from the plasma of Japanese Black cows on day 21 after artificial insemination and subjected to a customized bovine oligonucleotide microarray for expression analysis. Differentially expressed miRNAs and reference miRNA candidates were selected and validated using reverse transcription-quantitative PCR (RT-qPCR). An appropriate endogenous reference miRNA for normalization was selected using NormFinder software. To evaluate the effect of hemolysis on miRNA quantification, hemolyzed samples were prepared using plasma from four cows in the estrous cycle and subjected to RT-qPCR. A total of 124 miRNAs were detected in bovine plasma by microarray analysis in bred non-pregnant and pregnant cows. The levels of five circulating miRNAs were significantly higher in pregnant cows than in bred non-pregnant cows, and 24 miRNAs were detected only in the pregnant group. NormFinder analysis and RT-qPCR validation showed that miR-2455 was an appropriate reference miRNA in the plasma of bred non-pregnant and pregnant Japanese Black cows, and miR-19b, miR-25, miR-29a, and miR-148a were significantly higher in the pregnant group. These four circulating miRNAs did not change during the estrous cycle and were less affected by hemolysis. In the current study, we found four miRNAs, miR-19b, miR-25, miR-29a, and miR-148a, which were present at high levels in the plasma of pregnant Japanese Black cows. Since these miRNAs are less affected by hemolysis, they may potentially be used as biomarkers for early pregnancy diagnosis in cattle.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION AND OBJECTIVES Hepatitis C virus (HCV) infections in patients with hemophilia lead to the development of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) at a relatively younger age than that in patients without hemophilia. Although recent progress in direct-acting-antivirals has facilitated a high rate of sustained virological response (SVR), the clinical influence of HCV eradication in hemophilia patients remains unclear. This study aimed to compare the clinical outcomes of SVR against HCV in patients with and without hemophilia. PATIENTS AND METHODS The study enrolled 699 patients who achieved SVR after HCV antiviral treatment. Patients were divided into two groups: 78 patients with hemophilia (H group) and 621 patients without hemophilia (NH group). We evaluated patient characteristics, clinical outcomes, and the cumulative incidence of HCC after SVR. RESULTS Compared with the NH group, patients in the H-group were significantly younger and had a lower hepatic fibrosis score. No difference was found in the incidence of liver-related disease or overall death between the two groups over a mean follow-up period of 7 years. Four patients in the H group and 36 patients in the NH group were diagnosed with HCC after SVR. Multivariate analysis showed that male sex, age, and cirrhosis were significant risk factors for HCC incidence. There was no significant difference in the cumulative incidence of HCC after propensity-score matching adjusting for the risk factors of HCC between the two groups. CONCLUSION Hemophilia is not a significant risk factor for hepatocarcinogenesis after SVR against HCV.

Abstract
There is a known correlation between myocardial steatosis and heart function, but it is unclear how left ventricular diastolic function worsens over time in the myocardial steatosis setting. We sought to investigate whether intramyocardial fat deposition affects diastolic function over time. This was a retrospective analysis of patients who had undergone 1-3 echocardiography assessments between April 2011 and April 2017. Patients were divided into two groups: those with the presence of myocardial fat deposition in the left ventricular myocardium (assessed by having tissue within any 10-mm2 region with computed tomography values between - 190 and - 30 Hounsfield units; + MF), and those with absence of deposition not meeting the threshold (- MF). The rates of change of the standard early diastolic mitral annulus velocity (e') and the transmitral early peak velocity (E)/e' ratio at the second and third echocardiograph assessments were calculated relative to baseline. In total, 125 patients were eligible (+ MF, n = 39; - MF, n = 86) for inclusion. Compared with the - MF group, e' was significantly lower and E/e' was significantly higher in the + MF group at each scan timepoint, even when adjusted for body mass index and sex. A significant average decrease in e' and increase in E/e' was also observed in the + MF group across all scans compared with the - MF group. Myocardial steatosis was associated with an acceleration of decreased left ventricular diastolic function over time.

Abstract
The Kitaev quantum spin liquid epitomizes an entangled topological state, for which two flavors of fractionalized low-energy excitations are predicted: the itinerant Majorana fermion and the Z2 gauge flux. It was proposed recently that fingerprints of fractional excitations are encoded in the phonon spectra of Kitaev quantum spin liquids through a novel fractional-excitation-phonon coupling. Here, we detect anomalous phonon effects in α-RuCl3 using inelastic X-ray scattering with meV resolution. At high temperature, we discover interlaced optical phonons intercepting a transverse acoustic phonon between 3 and 7 meV. Upon decreasing temperature, the optical phonons display a large intensity enhancement near the Kitaev energy, JK~8 meV, that coincides with a giant acoustic phonon softening near the Z2 gauge flux energy scale. These phonon anomalies signify the coupling of phonon and Kitaev magnetic excitations in α-RuCl3 and demonstrates a proof-of-principle method to detect anomalous excitations in topological quantum materials.

Abstract
The anomalous Hall effect (AHE) is an intriguing transport phenomenon occurring typically in ferromagnets as a consequence of broken time reversal symmetry and spin-orbit interaction. It can be caused by two microscopically distinct mechanisms, namely, by skew or side-jump scattering due to chiral features of the disorder scattering, or by an intrinsic contribution directly linked to the topological properties of the Bloch states. Here we show that the AHE can be artificially engineered in materials in which it is originally absent by combining the effects of symmetry breaking, spin orbit interaction and proximity-induced magnetism. In particular, we find a strikingly large AHE that emerges at the interface between a ferromagnetic manganite (La0.7Sr0.3MnO3) and a semimetallic iridate (SrIrO3). It is intrinsic and originates in the proximity-induced magnetism present in the narrow bands of strong spin-orbit coupling material SrIrO3, which yields values of anomalous Hall conductivity and Hall angle as high as those observed in bulk transition-metal ferromagnets. These results demonstrate the interplay between correlated electron physics and topological phenomena at interfaces between 3d ferromagnets and strong spin-orbit coupling 5d oxides and trace an exciting path towards future topological spintronics at oxide interfaces.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is considered a leading cause of death in patients with haemophilia. Recent advances in the treatment of unresectable HCC with molecular-targeted agents (MTAs) have led to better clinical outcomes. However, the tolerability of MTAs by haemophilic patients with HCC remains unclear. AIM This study aimed to compare the tolerability of MTAs in such patients. PATIENTS AND METHODS From January 2011 to October 2020, five haemophilic patients with HCC were treated with MTAs. Adverse events were assessed in comparison with 265 non-haemophilic patients with HCC. RESULTS The prevalence of hand-foot skin reaction was not higher in the haemophiliacs than in the non-haemophiliacs, whereas the rate of haemorrhagic events was higher in the haemophiliacs (6.0% versus 40.0%, p=0.037). CONCLUSION Haemophiliacs tolerate long-term MTA use, without the occurrence of life-threatening complications. However, careful observation and prevention are needed for MTA-related gastrointestinal bleeding in haemophiliacs.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Coagulation factor XI (FXI) is a plasma serine protease zymogen that contributes to hemostasis. However, the mechanism of its secretion remains unclear. OBJECTIVE To determine the molecular mechanism of FXI secretion by characterizing a novel FXI mutant identified in a FXI-deficient Japanese patient. PATIENT/METHODS The FXI gene (F11) was analyzed by direct sequencing. Mutant recombinant FXI (rFXI) was overexpressed in HEK293 or COS-7 cells. Western blotting and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay were performed to examine the FXI extracellular secretion profile. Immunofluorescence microscopy was used to investigate the subcellular localization of the rFXI mutant. RESULTS We identified a novel homozygous frameshift mutation in F11 [c.1788dupC (p.E597Rfs*65)], resulting in a unique and extended carboxyl-terminal (C-terminal) structure in FXI. Although rFXI-E597Rfs*65 was intracellularly synthesized, its extracellular secretion was markedly reduced. Subcellular localization analysis revealed that rFXI-E597Rfs*65 was abnormally retained in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER). We generated a series of C-terminal-truncated rFXI mutants to further investigate the role of the C-terminal region in FXI secretion. Serial rFXI experiments revealed that a threonine at position 622, the fourth residue from the C-terminus, was essential for secretion. Notably, Thr622 engages in the formation of an α-helix motif, indicating the importance of the C-terminal α-helix in FXI intracellular behavior and secretion. CONCLUSION FXI E597Rfs*65 results in the pathogenesis of a severe secretory defect resulting from aberrant ER-to-Golgi trafficking caused by the lack of a C-terminal α-helix motif. This study demonstrates the impact of the C-terminal structure, especially the α-helix motif, on FXI secretion.

Abstract
Haemophilia is an X-linked inherited bleeding disorder caused by coagulation factor deficiency. Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is a major complication associated with the disease. No study thus far has investigated the safety and efficacy of percutaneous radiofrequency ablation (RFA) for HCC in patients with haemophilia. AIM This study aimed to evaluate the safety and efficacy of RFA for HCC in haemophilia patients. METHODS From July 2008 to June 2019, 217 patients with HCC underwent 300 RFA sessions. Of these, 18 sessions were performed in ten haemophilia patients (H group) and 282 in 207 non-haemophilia patients (NH group). The patients' characteristics, incidence of haemorrhagic complications and rates of local tumour recurrence were compared between the groups. RESULTS A majority of the haemophilia patients received clotting factor concentrate replacement therapy before and after RFA treatment, with the aim of reaching a plasma clotting factor level of higher than 60%-80%. Twelve haemorrhagic complications were observed in the NH group (4.2%; 12/282). Major bleeding requiring control procedures was observed in two patients and minor bleeding with careful observation was noted in ten patients. No bleeding complications were observed in the H group (0/18). There were no significant differences in the 5-year local tumour recurrence rates after RFA treatment between the groups (35.0% in the H group and 32.1% in the NH group). CONCLUSION RFA could be an effective and a safe method for HCC treatment in patients with haemophilia.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Factor VIII activity (FVIII:C) is measured by one-stage clotting assay (OSA) or chromogenic substrate assay (CSA). Significant differences in FVIII:C between OSA (FVIII:C1st ) and CSA (FVIII:CChr ) are described as assay discrepancy in nonsevere haemophilia A (HA). A large number of reagent combinations (APTT reagent and FVIII-deficient plasma) are used for OSA, but the impact of variations in reagent combinations on assay discrepancy has not been fully characterized. AIM To clarify the variations in FVIII:C1st /FVIII:CChr ratios according to OSA reagent combination in HA subjects with/without assay discrepancy. METHODS Thirty-nine patients previously diagnosed with nonsevere HA were enrolled, and their FVIII genes were investigated and FVIII:C levels were assessed by a single CSA reagent and 11 OSA reagent combinations. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis was used to predict possible cut-off values of the FVIII:C1st /FVIII:CChr ratio to define FVIII assay discrepancy for each reagent combination. RESULTS Patients were categorized into nondiscrepant (n = 25), discrepant (n = 5) and unclassified (n = 9) groups according to their genotypes and information in the database. The FVIII:C1st /FVIII:CChr ratio in nondiscrepant HA varied widely, depending on the APTT reagents and FVIII-deficient plasma used. The ratio in discrepant HA patients differed with respect to their genotype and the reagent combination used. ROC curve analyses revealed that cut-off values to distinguish the assay discrepancy differed depending on the reagents used, but revealed two novel genotype variants, p.Cys573Gly and p.Gly582Arg, associated with FVIII assay discrepancy. CONCLUSION Our findings showed that the FVIII:C1st /FVIII:CChr ratio is dependent on the reagent combination used for OSA.

Abstract
Background Hemophilia A (HA) is an X‐linked recessive bleeding disorder caused by pathogenic variants of the coagulation factor VIII gene (F8). Half of the patients with severe HA have a recurrent inversion in the X chromosome, that is, F8 intron 22 or intron 1 inversion. Here, we characterized an abnormal F8 due to atypical complex X chromosome rearrangements in a Japanese patient with severe HA. Methods Recurrent F8 inversions were tested with inverse shifting‐PCR. The genomic structure was investigated using PCR‐based direct sequencing or quantitative PCR. Results The proband's X chromosome had a 119.5 kb insertion, a reverse duplex of an extragenic sequence on the F8 telomere region into the F8 intron 1 with two breakpoints. The telomeric breakpoint was a joining from the F8 intron 1 to the inverted FUNDC2 via a two‐base microhomology, and the centromeric breakpoint was a recombination between F8 intron 1 homologous sequences. The rearrangement mechanism was suggested as a multi‐step rearrangement with template switching such as fork stalling and template switching (FoSTeS)/microhomology‐mediated break‐induced replication (MMBIR) and/or homologous sequence‐associated recombination during a sister chromatid formation. Conclusion We identified the aberrant X chromosome with a split F8 due to a multi‐step rearrangement in a patient with severe HA.

Abstract
BACKGROUND In this study, we aimed to understand the trends in total and itemized medical expenses, especially of disease-modifying therapy (DMT), for multiple sclerosis (MS) in Japan through an analysis of health insurance claims data. METHODS We analyzed a database containing health insurance claims data from hospitals that have adopted the Diagnosis Procedure Combination/Per-Diem Payment System in Japan. According to an algorithm based on diagnosis codes, data for all patients diagnosed with MS from April 2008 to July 2016 were extracted. Medical costs, rate of each medical treatment, and rate of relapses were analyzed by calendar-year. Medical costs in the month of relapse were compared with average medical costs per month of all MS patients by a cross-sectional analysis. RESULTS Four thousand three hundred seventy-four MS patients were identified in the database. Total medical cost per patient per month (PPPM) increased from ¥87,640 (US$787.7 or €723.0 as of May 2017) to ¥102,846 (US$924.4 or €848.4) during the study period. This increment was mainly attributed to the growth in cost of outpatient DMT prescriptions, which increased from ¥23,039 (US$207.1 or €190.1) to ¥51,351 (US$461.5 or €423.6). In contrast, the rate of hospitalizations and relapses PPPM decreased during the study period (from 0.053 to 0.030, and 0.032 to 0.019, respectively). Medical costs in the month of relapse (¥424,661, US$3816.8 or €3503.1) were 3.57 times higher than the average monthly costs for all MS patients (¥119,021, US$1069.8 or €981.8), with the majority comprising hospitalization cost. CONCLUSION Concomitant with the increased usage of DMT, the total medical cost for treating MS is increasing in Japan. However, rates of relapse and hospitalization have shown a decreasing trend. Although this study does not show the direct causality between DMT and reduction of relapse rates/fewer hospitalizations among MS patients, a reduction in hospital costs has been revealed concomitantly with the increasing prevalence of DMT.

Abstract
We managed perioperative hemostasis for a 72-year-old man with hemophilia A and low inhibitor titers (3 BU/mL), who underwent osteosynthesis for supracondylar fracture of the left humerus. He was treated perioperatively using the combination of high doses of factor VIII (FVIII) with recombinant human Factor VIII Fc fusion protein (rFVIIIFc), followed by emicizumab. On the day of surgery (day 0), he was administered bolus infusion of 150 IU/kg rFVIIIFc, followed by continuous infusion at a dose of 4 IU/kg/h. Emicizumab, 3 mg/kg, was injected subcutaneously once a week, on days 5, 12, 19, and 26. Inhibitors were detected on day 6 at a titer of 4 BU/mL and FVIII:C decreased to below assay sensitivity limits on day 10. The rate of increase in inhibitor titers was high, with inhibitors increasing to 343.4 BU/mL on day 14. The transition of thrombin production by thrombin generation assay (TGA) showed temporary decrease in thrombin production on day 7, although it was restored by day 10, i.e., five days after commencement of emicizumab therapy. Rotational thromboelastometry displayed consistent results with TGA, showing that clotting time was prolonged and the alpha angle decreased to less than measurable levels on day 6, although they were improved by day 10. There were no bleeding-related events or other adverse events throughout the perioperative period. In conclusion, emicizumab was effective for the management of perioperative hemostasis after development of an anamnestic response in a patient with hemophilia A with inhibitors. Combination therapy with high doses of FVIII followed by emicizumab could be a workable alternative for patients with hemophilia A with inhibitors.

Abstract
Background
Recently, some studies have highlighted proprotein convertase subtilisin-kexin type 9 (PCSK9) inhibitors produce incremental low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) lowering effect. However, it is unknown whether the lipid composition of plaque changes is associated with serum LDL-C reduction due to PCSK9 inhibitors administration.
Purpose
The purpose of this study was to determine the effects of PCSK9 inhibitor (PCSK9i) on coronary plaque component in patients with a history of coronary artery disease (CAD) assessed by near-infrared spectroscopy intravascular ultrasound (NIRS-IVUS).
Methods
A total of 67 non-culprit coronary segments were identified in 34 patients. These lesions were analyzed utilizing NIRS-IVUS at baseline and follow-up coronary angiography (CAG). The subjects were divided into two groups according to lipid-lowering treatment; administration of PCSK9i group (PCSK9i: 19 segments, 9 patients) and traditional statin treatment group (Control: 48 segments, 25 patients). The change of lipid-rich plaque distribution between baseline and follow-up NIRS-IVUS was defined as the change of maximal lipid core burden index (LCBI) score for each of the 4-mm longitudinal segments (maxLCBI4mm).
Results
Mean duration from baseline to follow-up CAG was 239.4±52.4 days in the PCSK9i group and 341.0±84.1 days in the Control group (p<0.001). Despite the higher total cholesterol (TC) and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) in the PCSK9i group at baseline (206.6±40.9 mg/dl vs. 168.5±37.1 mg/dl, 131.5±35.4 mg/dl vs. 100.0±29.5 mg/dl; respectively, p<0.001 for both), the PCSK9i group was significantly lower TC and LDL-C at the follow-up (111.5±23.5 mg/dl vs. 157.4±27.8 mg/dl, 40.8±15.7 mg/dl vs. 86.2±19.6 mg/dl; respectively, p<0.001 for both). Furthermore, the PCSK9i group induced greater regression of maxLCBI4mm than that of Control group (99.6±156.6 vs. 27.9±118.0, p=0.046) (Figure).

Conclusion
Compared with traditional statin therapy, PCSK9i treatment resulted in a greater decrease in lipid component in non-culprit coronary plaques. Therefore, PCSK9i may be useful option in preventing from adverse coronary events for the patients with CAD.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Critical limb ischemia (CLI) is the most progressed manifestation of peripheral artery disease. Although patients with CLI commonly complicate with severely calcified lesions in infrapopliteal lesions, the prognostic impact of infrapopliteal arterial calcification on wound healing in patients with CLI has not been systematically studied.
Purpose
The aim of current study was to elucidate the prognostic impact of infrapopliteal arterial calcification on wound healing in CLI undergoing endovascular therapy (EVT).
Methods
This study enrolled 639 CLI patients with tissue loss (age 74±10 years, male 62%, diabetes 69%, hemodialysis 57%, Rutherford class 5 77%, class 6 23%) primarily treated with EVT for the infrapopliteal lesions between April 2010 and December 2015. Arterial calcification was assessed by high intensity fluoroscopy and classified into 3 groups as follows; 1) none, 2) unilateral and 3) bilateral calcification. The primary outcome measure was complete wound healing. The predictors of the outcome were evaluated by Cox proportional hazards regression analysis.
Results
During a mean follow-up period of 22±19 months, 1-year wound healing rate were 59.0%. In Kaplan-Meier analysis, 1-year wound healing rate was worse in patients with bilateral calcification than in those with unilateral or none calcification (Figure, 46.2% versus 55.1% versus 67.8%, P<0.001). After multivariate analysis, the predictors of wound healing were non-ambulatory status (hazard ratio (HR) 0.67 [95% confidential interval (CI) 0.53–0.85], P=0.001) and bilateral calcification (HR 0.75 [95% CI 0.47–0.98], versus none or unilateral calcification, P=0.036).

Conclusion
Infrapopliteal Arterial calcification as well as non-ambulatory status was associated with wound healing in patients with CLI.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Polymer-free biolimus A9-coated stent (DCS) has currently emerged as expected better arterial healing compared to durable polymer drug-eluting stent (DP-DES). However, superiority of DCS on arterial healing over DP-DES has not been well elucidated using intracoronary images.
Methods
This study examined 288 stents in 224 patients with de novo coronary artery lesions. We angioscopically compared 55 DCS from 35 patients with 233 DP-DES from 189 patients 10±2 months after the implantation. We assessed thrombus adhesion, which is a marker of incomplete re-endothelialization. Dominant neointimal coverage (NIC) grade, heterogeneity of NIC and maximum yellow color of plaque underneath the stent were also evaluated. Neointimal coverage was graded as follows: grade 0, stent struts exposed; grade 1, struts bulged into the lumen, although covered; grade 2, struts embedded by the neointima, but translucent; grade 3, struts fully embedded and invisible. NIC was judged as heterogeneous when differences in the NIC grade became apparent. Yellow plaque was graded as follows: grade 0, white; grade 1, light yellow; grade 2, yellow; grade 3, intensive yellow.
Results
Thrombus adhesion was similar between DCS and DP-DES (29% versus 23%, P=0.32). Dominant NIC was greater in DCS than in BP-DES (P<0.001), while NIC was more heterogeneous in DCS than in BP-DES (P=0.001, Figure). Maximum yellow color of stented segment was similar between DCS and DP-DES (P=0.09).
Conclusion
DCS provided similar thrombus adhesion to DP-DES, which suggested similar re-endothelialization 10 months after implantation. However, DCS showed thick and heterogeneous NIC compared to DP-DES. The specific feature of polymer-free and Biolimus A9 would cause the difference, and further investigation is necessary to evaluate the longer-term safety and efficacy.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Pulmonary vein isolation (PVI) using cryoballoon requires contrast medium injection for the confirmation of appropriate venous occlusion. However, some patients have contra-indications against contrast use such as allergy for contrast medium, bronchial asthma or renal dysfunction. We hypothesized that intra-cardiac echocardiographic observation of microbubble leakage after saline injection from the cryoballoon lumen can be used as a maker of incomplete venous occlusion.
Purpose
The aim of this study was to assess the effect of echo-guided approach using saline injection on the acute clinical outcomes as well as the amount of contrast medium.
Methods
Twenty consecutive patients with paroxysmal atrial fibrillation (AF) were studied. They had any reason to avoid using contrast medium. Plain CT scan was performed in all cases to understand the anatomical features. Intra-cardiac echocardiography was used in all cases to guide transseptal puncture and to confirm pulmonary-vein occlusion. Procedural results and clinical outcomes were compared with patients who were performed by the conventional method (n=279).
Results
In all study patients, we could perform PVI without using contrast medium. A total of 2 patients required touch-up ablation using radiofrequency ablation catheter. The procedure time (85±23 vs 86±27 min, P=0.84), the dose of radiation exposure (108±78 vs. 140±133 mmGy/m2, P=0.29), and ratio of requiring touch-up ablation (5% vs 4%, P=0.81) were similar between the study group and the reference group. There was no significant difference in the AF-free survival rate (73% vs. 76%, P=0.79) during a follow-up period of 14±6 months.

Conclusion
Echo-guided approach using saline infusion was effective and less invasive in terms of reduction of contrast use.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Biodegradable polymer drug-eluting stent (BP-DES) has been developed to improve clinical outcomes after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) for patients presenting coronary artery disease (CAD). Although BP-DES showed non-inferior safety and efficacy to durable polymer DES (DP-DES) in several randomized clinical trials, hemodialysis (HD) patients, who have been well known as high risk population for adverse events, were excluded in the most of trials. Therefore, there are limited data comparing the clinical outcomes between BP-DES and DP-DES in HD patients with CAD after PCI.
Purpose
The purpose of this study was to investigate clinical outcomes in HD patients after BP-DES implantation compared with those after DP-DES implantation.
Methods
We retrospectively analyzed 234 HD patients (male 74%, mean age 71±10 years) undergoing PCI for 404 lesions with 472 DESs (71 patients for 138 lesions with 170 BP-DESs [91 Ultimaster and 79 Synergy] and 163 HD patients for 266 lesions with 302 DP-DESs [219 Xience, 53 Promus and 30 Resolute]) from 2011 to 2017. Two-year clinical outcomes were compared between BP-DES group and DP-DES group. The primary outcome measure was the incidence of target lesion revascularization (TLR), while the secondary outcome measures were the occurrence of cardiac death (CD), stent thrombosis (ST), myocardial infraction (MI), target vessel revascularization (TVR), non-TVR and major adverse cardiac event (MACE) defined as a composite of CD, MI, and TVR. Outcome measures were estimated by the Kaplan-Meier method and the differences between BP-DES group and DP-DES group were assessed by the log-rank test. We also conducted Cox's proportional hazard model to identify predictors for TLR occurrence.
Results
Baseline patient and lesion characteristics were similar between the two groups. The two-year incidence of TLR was not significantly different between BP-DES group and DP-DES group (14.1% vs. 22.2%, p=0.391). The two-year incidences of CD (17.3% vs. 17.5%, p=0.381), ST (0% vs. 3.9%, p=0.133), MI (4.2% vs. 5.8%, p=0.965), TVR (21.3% vs. 27.5%, p=0.586), non-TVR (26.1% vs. 31.3%, p=0.439) and MACE (41.1% vs. 42.6%, p=0.526) were also not different between the two groups. After multivariate analysis, diabetes mellitus (hazard ratio 1.97; 95% confidence interval 1.03–3.78, p=0.004) was independently associated with TLR occurrence in HD patients.
Two-year clinical outcomes of HD patient
Conclusions
At two-year follow-up after PCI, BP-DES had comparable safety and efficacy profiles to DP-DES in HD patients presenting CAD.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Hemophilia B is an X-linked recessive bleeding disorder caused by coagulation factor IX (FIX) gene (F9) mutations. Several F9 synonymous mutations have been known to cause hemophilia B; however, the deleterious mechanisms underlying the development of hemophilia B have not been completely understood. To elucidate the molecular pathogenesis causing hemophilia B, we investigated the synonymous F9 mutation: c.87A>G, p.(Thr29=). MATERIALS AND METHODS The influence of F9 c.87A>G on mRNA splicing was analyzed by exon-trap assay and in silico prediction. We prepared FIX expression vectors using mutant F9 cDNA and transfected HepG2 cells to investigate intracellular transport and extracellular secretion of FIX. Intracellular kinetics of the expressed FIX was examined by treatment with the proteasome inhibitor MG132. RESULTS Exon-trap analysis revealed that F9 c.87A>G resulted in almost (99.1%) aberrant splicing (r.83_88del). In silico analysis predicted that F9 c.87A>G influenced the splicing pattern by generating an available aberrant 5' splice site. The aberrant F9 mRNA (r.83_88del) was translated to a mutant FIX p.Cys28_Val30delinsPhe with an in-frame mutation at the signal peptide cleavage site. Simultaneously, a small amount (0.9%) of mutant F9 r.87A>G translating into WT FIX p.Thr29 = was also observed. The mutant FIX was abnormally retained in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and was not extracellularly secreted. It appeared to be intracellularly degraded via proteasome-dependent degradation machinery. CONCLUSION F9 c.87A>G was found to cause abnormal mRNA splicing, r.83_88del, and produce the mutant FIX p.Cys28_Val30delinsPhe. The mutant FIX is an abnormal protein with extracellular secretory defects and is intracellularly eliminated via proteasome-dependent ER-associated degradation.

Abstract
Balloon occlusion is a potential method for inducing hyperemia to measure post-percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) fractional flow reserve (FFR). The objective of this study was to determine the clinical usefulness of post-occlusional hyperemia. FFRs measured using post-occlusional hyperemia caused by 30 (FFRoccl30) and 60 s (FFRoccl60) of balloon occlusion after PCI were compared in 60 lesions from 60 patients. The duration of hyperemia was also measured. There was a strong correlation between FFRoccl30 and FFRoccl60 (r = 0.969, p < 0.01). The duration of hyperemia was significantly longer with FFRoccl60 than with FFRoccl30 (68 ± 23 vs. 37 ± 15 s, p < 0.01). The time required for pullback curve analysis was around 45 s. However, in 7 (12%) cases, the duration of hyperemia with FFRoccl60 was < 45 s, which was not enough for pull-back curve analysis. To predict the duration of hyperemia with FFRoccl60 ≥ 45 s, the receiver operating characteristic curve analysis revealed a cut-off value of 25 s of hyperemia with FFRoccl30. FFRoccl30 is sufficient for diagnostic purposes. FFRoccl60 is suitable for pull-back curve analysis in select cases based on predictions made using the duration of hyperemia with FFRoccl30.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To assess the performance of angiography derived Fractional Flow Reserve (FFRangio) in multivessel disease (MVD) patients undergoing angiography. BACKGROUND FFR is the reference standard for physiologic assessment of coronary stenosis and guidance of revascularization, especially in patients with MVD, yet it remains grossly underutilized. The non-wire based FFRangio performs well in non-MVD patients, but its accuracy in MVD is unknown. METHODS A prospective clinical study was conducted at Gifu Heart Centre, Japan. Patients underwent physiologic assessment of all relevant coronary lesions using wire-based FFR (wbFFR) and FFRangio. Primary outcome was diagnostic performance (sensitivity, specificity, accuracy) for FFRangio with wbFFR as reference. Other outcomes were the correlation between wbFFR/FFRangio, time required for wbFFR/FFRangio measurements, and the effect of wbFFR/FFRangio on the reclassification of coronary disease severity. RESULTS Fifty patients (118 lesions in total) were included. Mean age was 72 ± 9 years, 72% were male, 36% had triple vessel disease and the average SYNTAX score was 13. The mean measurement of wbFFR and FFRangio were 0.83 ± 0.12 and 0.81 ± 0.11, respectively. Accuracy, sensitivity and specificity for FFRangio were 92.3% (95% CI 79.1-98.4%), 92.4% (95% CI 84.3-97.2%) and 92.4% (95% CI 87.4-97.3%), respectively. Pearson's r between wbFFR and FFRangio was 0.83. FFRangio measurement was faster than wbFFR (9.6 ± 3.4 vs. 15.0 ± 8.9 min, p < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS In patients with MVD, FFRangio shows good correlation and excellent diagnostic performance compared to wbFFR, and measuring FFRangio is faster than wbFFR. These results highlight the potential clinical benefits of utilizing FFRangio among patients with MVD.

Abstract
SummaryThe synthetic thrombin-inhibitor termed No. 205 (N-α-dansyl-L-arginine-4-ethyl-piperidine amide) found in our laboratories was studied kinetically using synthetic peptide substrates. The following results were obtained. 1. No. 205 inhibited thrombin competitively with bz-Phe-Val-Arg-pNA and the Ki value obtained was extremely small, 3.7 × 10-8 M. 2. No. 205 also inhibited trypsin competitively with bz-Phe-Val-Arg-pNA but the Ki value obtained was far larger than that for thrombin, 1.0 × 10-5 M. 3. No. 205 inhibited F. Xa, plasmin and urokinase only to a small extent when estimated using 2 × 10-4 M D-Val-Leu- Lys-pNA, bz-Ile-Glu-Gly-Arg-pNA and Glu-Gly-Arg-pNA, respectively. 4. No. 205 differed from APPA in its specific inhibitory spectrum for thrombin as compared to trypsin, plasmin and F. Xa. The above results indicate that No. 205 is an extremely potent and highly selective reversible thrombin-inhibitor.

Abstract
SummaryThe effect of a selective thrombin inhibitor, (2R, 4R)-4-methyl-1- [N2- [(3-methyl-1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-8-quinolinyl)sulfo-nyl]-L-arginyl]-2-piperidinecarboxylic acid (MCI-9038), on the fibrinolysis induced by t-PA and u-PA was studied in vitro and in vivo. MCI-9038 remarkably reduced the lysis time of the plasma clot generated by the addition of calcium chloride to the plasma at the concentration ranging from 0.01 to 0.3 μM. Heparin also reduced the plasma clot lysis time with a lower effect than MCI-9038. The fibrin crosslinkage in the plasma clot was inhibited by MCI-9038 or heparin. MCI-9038 potently inhibited the factor XIIIa generation from factor XIII by thrombin.The effect on the in vivo thrombolysis was studied on the arterial thrombosis generated by the endothelial cell injury of the rabbit carotid artery by acetic acid. t-PA dissolved the thrombi with the infusion at 0.96 mg/kg over 2 h without a significant activation of a systemic fibrinolysis. u-PA dissolved the thrombi with the infusion at 180,000 and 360,000 IU/kg over 2 h. At a dose of 0.48 mg/kg t-PA or 90,000 IU/kg u-PA, the thrombi were not dissolved, but the combined use of MCI-9038 at 1.2 mg/kg over 2 h effectively dissolved the thrombi. Thus, combination of MCI-9038 with plasminogen activators accelerated thrombolysis of an experimental thrombosis in rabbits.

Abstract
SummaryWe examined the effect of a synthetic thrombin inhibitor, MCI-9038, on two experimental animal models of disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC).In a model that DIC induced by the intravenous infusion of thrombin, MCI-9038 suppressed the decrease of platelet count by about 50% at a dose of 0.2 μg/kg/min and almost completely at 2 μg/kg/min. When MCI-9038 was administered orally, the suppressive effect was also observed. Heparin suppressed the platelet count decrease by about 50% at 1 unit/kg/min.In another model of DIC induced by lactic acid and tissue thromboplastin infusion, MCI-9038 prevented the decrease of platelet count and the consumption of coagulation factors. The suppression effect by about 50% on these changes was observed at a dose of 3.16 μg/kg/min. Thromboelastogram pattern indicating the consumption coagulopathy in control experiments was normalized by the MCI-9038 administration. Heparin suppressed the decrease of fibrinogen content as effectively as MCI-9038, but it was less effective on the platelet count decrease.From these results, it was concluded that MCI-9038 might be useful for the treatment of DIC.

Abstract
Background Patients with major depressive disorder may exhibit cognitive dysfunction that can affect functional outcomes. However, the prevalence and burden of cognitive dysfunction in Japanese patients with MDD have not been thoroughly examined. Objective To investigate the time course (over 6 months) of several functional outcomes during treatment with antidepressants in Japanese patients with major depressive disorder. The primary objective is to assess longitudinal changes in cognitive function and depressive symptoms, using both clinician-rated and patient-rated scales. The study incorporates assessments of cognitive function and other functional outcomes (functional capacity, disability, work productivity and impairments of activity, and quality of life), as well as depressive symptoms. Methods PERFORM-J (Prospective Epidemiological Research on Functioning Outcomes Related to Major Depressive Disorder in Japan) is a 6-month, prospective, multi-center, epidemiological cohort study. Participants are Japanese outpatients aged 18-65 years with a recurrent or new diagnosis of a major depressive episode (according to the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, 4th Edition, Text Revision [DSM-IV-TR]), who are initiating a new antidepressant as monotherapy (either as first-line therapy or after switching from a previous antidepressant). Eligible patients are evaluated objectively during four visits (at baseline and at Months 1, 2, and 6) using physician-rated assessments of severity of depressive symptoms, cognitive function, and functional capacity. Subjective, patient-reported, outcomes are also assessed as indicators of depressive symptoms, disability, work productivity or impairments of activity, and perceived cognitive dysfunction. Results The study began in September 2016. Patient enrollment was completed on June 30, 2017, with 523 patients having been enrolled from 48 study sites. As of October, 2017, 279 patients had completed the study. Conclusions PERFORM-J is expected to provide valuable information on the longitudinal relationship between cognitive dysfunction, depressive symptoms, and other functional outcomes in Japanese patients with major depressive disorder who initiate monotherapy with antidepressants.
