Accuracy of 11 Wearable, Nearable, and Airable Consumer Sleep Trackers: Prospective Multicenter Validation Study. JMIR Mhealth Uhealth 2023; 11:e50983. [PMID: 37917155 PMCID: PMC10654909 DOI: 10.2196/50983] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/18/2023] [Revised: 08/08/2023] [Accepted: 09/20/2023] [Indexed: 11/03/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Consumer sleep trackers (CSTs) have gained significant popularity because they enable individuals to conveniently monitor and analyze their sleep. However, limited studies have comprehensively validated the performance of widely used CSTs. Our study therefore investigated popular CSTs based on various biosignals and algorithms by assessing the agreement with polysomnography. OBJECTIVE This study aimed to validate the accuracy of various types of CSTs through a comparison with in-lab polysomnography. Additionally, by including widely used CSTs and conducting a multicenter study with a large sample size, this study seeks to provide comprehensive insights into the performance and applicability of these CSTs for sleep monitoring in a hospital environment. METHODS The study analyzed 11 commercially available CSTs, including 5 wearables (Google Pixel Watch, Galaxy Watch 5, Fitbit Sense 2, Apple Watch 8, and Oura Ring 3), 3 nearables (Withings Sleep Tracking Mat, Google Nest Hub 2, and Amazon Halo Rise), and 3 airables (SleepRoutine, SleepScore, and Pillow). The 11 CSTs were divided into 2 groups, ensuring maximum inclusion while avoiding interference between the CSTs within each group. Each group (comprising 8 CSTs) was also compared via polysomnography. RESULTS The study enrolled 75 participants from a tertiary hospital and a primary sleep-specialized clinic in Korea. Across the 2 centers, we collected a total of 3890 hours of sleep sessions based on 11 CSTs, along with 543 hours of polysomnography recordings. Each CST sleep recording covered an average of 353 hours. We analyzed a total of 349,114 epochs from the 11 CSTs compared with polysomnography, where epoch-by-epoch agreement in sleep stage classification showed substantial performance variation. More specifically, the highest macro F1 score was 0.69, while the lowest macro F1 score was 0.26. Various sleep trackers exhibited diverse performances across sleep stages, with SleepRoutine excelling in the wake and rapid eye movement stages, and wearables like Google Pixel Watch and Fitbit Sense 2 showing superiority in the deep stage. There was a distinct trend in sleep measure estimation according to the type of device. Wearables showed high proportional bias in sleep efficiency, while nearables exhibited high proportional bias in sleep latency. Subgroup analyses of sleep trackers revealed variations in macro F1 scores based on factors, such as BMI, sleep efficiency, and apnea-hypopnea index, while the differences between male and female subgroups were minimal. CONCLUSIONS Our study showed that among the 11 CSTs examined, specific CSTs showed substantial agreement with polysomnography, indicating their potential application in sleep monitoring, while other CSTs were partially consistent with polysomnography. This study offers insights into the strengths of CSTs within the 3 different classes for individuals interested in wellness who wish to understand and proactively manage their own sleep.

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

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Combining the artificial intelligence algorithm with the known clinical risk factors may provide enhanced accuracy for prediction of the hidden atrial fibrillation (AF) in patients with embolic stroke with undetermined source (ESUS).
Purpose
We aimed to develop enhanced prediction models for AF with deep learning algorithm (DLA) and clinical predictors in patients with ESUS. The DLA was created to identify the patients with paroxysmal AF based on their electrocardiograms (ECG) during sinus rhythm.
Methods
We analyzed the 221 patients who underwent insertable cardiac monitor (ICM) for AF detection following ESUS. The DLA was previously developed with sinus rhythm ECGs of 10,605 paroxysmal AF patients and 50,522 non-AF patients. The convolutional neural network was used for the DLA. The primary endpoint was defined as any AF episode lasting over 5 min by ICM. The atrial ectopic burden (AEB) was calculated as the percentage of the number of conducted QRS by atrial ectopy on Holter monitoring.
Results
AF (≥5 min) was detected by ICM in 32 patients (14.5%) during follow-up period of 15.1±8.6 months. AF patients had higher AEB (0.199% vs 0.023%, p<0.001), larger left atrial diameters (LAD, 41.2 mm vs 35.7 mm, p<0.001), and larger left atrial volume index (LAVI, 46.4 ml/m2 vs 32.3 ml/m2, p<0.001) than those without AF. The means of calculated probabilities of AF by DLA were higher in patients with AF than those without AF (63.8% vs 40.2%, p<0.001). In the receiver operating characteristic curve analysis, the areas under the curve (AUC) were the highest in DLA (0.824) followed by AEB (0.784), LAVI (0.780), and LAD (0.768). The multivariable model with AEB, LAVI, and DLA demonstrated excellent prediction accuracy for paroxysmal AF (AUC: 0.902, Figure 1)
Conclusions
In patients with ESUS, the DLA outperformed other clinical risk factors for prediction of AF. Combining DLA with AEB, LAD and LAVI could is a potential useful tool to predict AF in ESUS patients.

Abstract
Background and Objectives: Measurement of sleep parameters in both supine and non-supine positions is important for the diagnosis of positional obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). However, the influence of right and left lateral decubitus positions (RLDP and LLDP, respectively) on sleep parameters is relatively unknown and has not been well investigated. This study was performed to verify the associations between sleep parameters and lateral decubitus sleep position.Methods: A retrospective study was performed on 38 patients who were diagnosed with OSA and underwent surgical interventions from January 2014 to December 2016. Preoperative sleep parameters were evaluated with WatchPAT, and patients who slept sufficiently in both RLDP and LLDP to accurately analyze sleep parameters were enrolled in the study. Basic clinical data including body mass index (BMI) and nasal endoscopic findings of patients were assessed.Results: The difference in peripheral arterial tonometry apnea-hypopnea index (pAHI) and PAT respiratory disturbance index (pRDI) between RLDP and LLDP showed no association with the side of deviated nasal septum. Patients with higher BMI showed higher pRDI in LLDP than RLDP (p=0.038). The difference in sleep position percentage between RLDP and LLDP was negatively correlated with the difference in pRDI (p=0.023).Conclusion: Higher BMI patients with OSA might benefit more from sleeping in RLDP than LLDP. Patients slept longer in the lateral decubitus position that produced lower pRDI. Not only supine and non-supine positions, but also RLDP and LLDP need to be evaluated in patients with OSA.

Abstract
Carbonaceous asteroids, such as (101955) Bennu, preserve material from the early Solar System, including volatile compounds and organic molecules. We report spacecraft imaging and spectral data collected during and after retrieval of a sample from Bennu’s surface. The sampling event mobilized rocks and dust into a debris plume, excavating a 9-m-long elliptical crater. This exposed material that is darker, spectrally redder, and more abundant in fine particulates than the original surface. The bulk density of the displaced subsurface material was 500–700 kg per cubic meter, about half that of the whole asteroid. Particulates that landed on instrument optics spectrally resemble aqueously altered carbonaceous meteorites. The spacecraft stored 250 ± 101 g of material, which will be delivered to Earth in 2023.

Abstract
Anemia is associated with physical, cognitive, and developmental problems. Given that there are limited studies on anemia prevalence among obese Asian adolescents and that past evidence is controversial, this study investigated the relationship between obesity and anemia in a nationally representative sample of South Korean adolescents. Data were obtained from the 2007–2019 Korea National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey. Overall, 10,231 subjects were included in the analysis. Multiple logistic regression was performed to determine the relationship between obesity and anemia. Compared with the non-obesity group, the adjusted odds ratio (OR; 95% confidence interval [CI]) of anemia was 1.00 (0.66–1.50) in the obesity group. However, in the early adolescent subgroup of 10–13 years (adjusted OR, 2.88; 95% CI, 1.20–6.95), the risk of anemia was significantly higher in the obese group than in the non-obese group. Obesity was associated with an increased risk of anemia in early adolescents. Obese adolescents aged 10–13 require special care, especially through regular examination and management for anemia.

Abstract
The Hayabusa2 spacecraft investigated the C-type (carbonaceous) asteroid (162173) Ryugu. The mission performed two landing operations to collect samples of surface and subsurface material, the latter exposed by an artificial impact. We present images of the second touchdown site, finding that ejecta from the impact crater was present at the sample location. Surface pebbles at both landing sites show morphological variations ranging from rugged to smooth, similar to Ryugu's boulders, and shapes from quasi-spherical to flattened. The samples were returned to Earth on 6 December 2020. We describe the morphology of >5 grams of returned pebbles and sand. Their diverse color, shape, and structure are consistent with the observed materials of Ryugu; we conclude that they are a representative sample of the asteroid.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The reconstitution volume of a PLLA-containing injectable device has gradually increased in clinical practice, often in combination with adding lidocaine to the solution. OBJECTIVE This study, SCRIPT (Sculptra Contemporary Reconstitution & Injection Procedure Trial) evaluated PLLA for correction of nasolabial folds after changes in reconstitution and injection procedures. Primary endpoint for effectiveness was change from baseline of nasolabial folds, assessed by blinded evaluation using a validated wrinkle assessment scale (WAS), at week 48. METHODS Subjects were treated to optimal correction of nasolabial folds at a single treatment regimen consisting of ≤4 injection sessions, with PLLA reconstituted with 8 mL or 5 mL sterile water for injection (SWFI), randomized 2:1. The 8 mL product included an additional 1 mL 2%-lidocaine and was injected immediately following reconstitution. Assessments included wrinkle severity, aesthetic improvement and safety. RESULTS A total of 80 subjects were included in the study. Most subjects were female (95%), mean age was 51.5 years. Primary endpoint was met and subjects from both study groups demonstrated high WAS responder rates (≥1-grade improvement from baseline) at week 24 (≥75%) and week 48 (≥67%). Aesthetic improvement was high (≥86%) throughout the study. Adverse events related to study product or injection procedure were mostly mild and transient. CONCLUSION PLLA reconstituted with 8 mL SWFI demonstrated a comparable treatment effect to that of the reference group in reducing wrinkle severity of nasolabial folds. Safety was not compromised using a higher reconstitution volume including lidocaine, injected immediately after reconstitution.

Abstract
Ionizable lipid nanoparticles (LNPs) have been widely used for in vivo delivery of RNA therapeutics into the liver. However, a main challenge remains to develop LNP formulations for selective delivery of RNA into certain types of liver cells, such as hepatocytes and liver sinusoidal endothelial cells (LSECs). Here, we report the engineered LNPs for the targeted delivery of RNA into hepatocytes and LSECs. The effects of particle size and polyethylene glycol-lipid content in the LNPs were evaluated for the hepatocyte-specific delivery of mRNA by ApoE-mediated cellular uptake through low-density lipoprotein receptors. Targeted delivery of RNA to LSECs was further investigated using active ligands. Incorporation of mannose allowed the selective delivery of RNA to LSECs, while minimizing the unwanted cellular uptake by hepatocytes. These results demonstrate that engineered LNPs have great potential for the cell type-specific delivery of RNA into the liver and other tissues.

Abstract
Aims Although heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) is a rapidly emerging global health problem, an adequate tool to screen it reliably and economically does not exist. We developed an interpretable deep learning model (DLM) using electrocardiography (ECG) and validated its performance. Methods and results This retrospective cohort study included two hospitals. 34 103 patients who underwent echocardiography and ECG within 1 week and indicated normal left ventricular systolic function were included in this study. A DLM based on an ensemble neural network was developed using 32 671 ECGs of 20 169 patients. The internal validation included 1979 ECGs of 1979 patients. Furthermore, we conducted an external validation with 11 955 ECGs of 11 955 patients from another hospital. The endpoint was to detect HFpEF. During the internal and external validation, the area under the receiver operating characteristic curves of a DLM using 12-lead ECG for detecting HFpEF were 0.866 (95% confidence interval 0.850-0.883) and 0.869 (0.860-0.877), respectively. In the 1412 individuals without HFpEF at initial echocardiography, patients whose DLM was defined as having a higher risk had a significantly higher chance of developing HFpEF than those in the low-risk group (33.6% vs. 8.4%, P < 0.001). Sensitivity map showed that the DLM focused on the QRS complex and T-wave. Conclusion The DLM demonstrated high performance for HFpEF detection using not only a 12-lead ECG but also 6- single-lead ECG. These results suggest that HFpEF can be screened using conventional ECG devices and diverse life-type ECG machines employing the DLM, thereby preventing disease progression.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Early detection and intervention of atrial fibrillation (AF) is a cornerstone for effective treatment and prevention of mortality. Diverse deep learning models (DLMs) have been developed, but they could not be applied in clinical practice owing to their lack of interpretability. We developed an explainable DLM to detect AF using ECG and validated its performance using diverse formats of ECG. METHODS We conducted a retrospective study. The Sejong ECG dataset comprising 128,399 ECGs was used to develop and internally validated the explainable DLM. DLM was developed with two feature modules, which could describe the reason for DLM decisions. DLM was external validated using data from 21,837, 10,605, and 8528 ECGs from PTB-XL, Chapman, and PhysioNet non-restricted datasets, respectively. The predictor variables were digitally stored ECGs, and the endpoints were AFs. RESULTS During internal and external validation of the DLM, the area under the receiver operating characteristic curves (AUCs) of the DLM using a 12‑lead ECG in detecting AF were 0.997-0.999. The AUCs of the DLM with VAE using a 6‑lead and single‑lead ECG were 0.990-0.999. The AUCs of explainability about features such as rhythm irregularity and absence of P-wave were 0.961-0.993 and 0.983-0.993, respectively. CONCLUSIONS Our DLM successfully detected AF using diverse ECGs and described the reason for this decision. The results indicated that an explainable artificial intelligence methodology could be adopted to the DLM using ECG and enhance the transparency of the DLM for its application in clinical practice.

Abstract
Rapid diagnosis of myocardial infarction (MI) using electrocardiography (ECG) is the cornerstone of effective treatment and prevention of mortality; however, conventional interpretation methods has low reliability for detecting MI and is difficulty to apply to limb 6-lead ECG based life type or wearable devices. We developed and validated a deep learning-based artificial intelligence algorithm (DLA) for detecting MI using 6-lead ECG. A total of 412,461 ECGs were used to develop a variational autoencoder (VAE) that reconstructed precordial 6-lead ECG using limb 6-lead ECG. Data from 9536, 1301, and 1768 ECGs of adult patients who underwent coronary angiography within 24 h from each ECG were used for development, internal and external validation, respectively. During internal and external validation, the area under the receiver operating characteristic curves of the DLA with VAE using a 6-lead ECG were 0.880 and 0.854, respectively, and the performances were preserved by the territory of the coronary lesion. Our DLA successfully detected MI using a 12-lead ECG or a 6-lead ECG. The results indicate that MI could be detected not only with a conventional 12 lead ECG but also with a life type 6-lead ECG device that employs our DLA.

Developing a predictive model for distinguishing invasive nail unit melanoma from nail unit melanoma in situ. J Eur Acad Dermatol Venereol 2020; 35:906-911. [PMID: 33205521 DOI: 10.1111/jdv.17036] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/06/2020] [Accepted: 10/21/2020] [Indexed: 12/24/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Clinical information that distinguishes invasive nail unit melanoma from nail unit melanoma in situ before surgery would aid physicians in the decision-making process and estimating prognosis. However, limited information is available on the detailed demographic and dermoscopic features of invasive nail unit melanoma and nail unit melanoma in situ for differential diagnosis. OBJECTIVE This study aimed to investigate the demographic data and dermoscopic features of invasive nail unit melanoma and nail unit melanoma in situ and establish a predictive model for differentiating these two forms of nail unit melanoma. METHODS A retrospective observational study of ninety-seven patients diagnosed with nail unit melanoma (59 in situ and 38 invasive cases) in four healthcare centres in South Korea (three tertiary referral hospitals and one second referral hospital) from March 2014 to December 2019. RESULTS A multivariable analysis revealed that ulcer (odds ratio = 21.6, confidence interval = 2.1-219.8, P = 0.009), total melanonychia (odds ratio = 17.6, confidence interval = 3.0-104.0, P = 0.002), nail plate destruction (odds ratio = 10.9, confidence interval = 2.0-59.4, P = 0.006) and polychromia (odds ratio = 5.3, confidence interval = 1.36-20.57, P = 0.016) were distinctive dermoscopic features of invasive nail unit melanoma. A predictive model with scores ranging from 0 to 6 points demonstrated a reliable diagnostic value (C-statistic = 0.902) in differentiating invasive nail unit melanoma from nail unit melanoma in situ. CONCLUSIONS Invasive nail unit melanoma and nail unit melanoma in situ have different dermoscopic features. A predictive model based on morphologic dermoscopic features could aid in differentiating invasive nail unit melanoma from nail unit melanoma in situ.

Abstract
Background:A progressive loss of cartilage matrix leads to the development of osteoarthritis (OA). Matrix homeostasis is disturbed in OA cartilage as the result of reduced production of cartilage-specific matrix and increased secretion of catabolic mediators by chondrocytes. Chondrocyte senescence is a crucial cellular event contributing to such imbalance in matrix metabolism during OA development.Objectives:We sought to identify a previously unknown, senescence-associated signaling pathway in chondrocytes linked to major OA cartilage manifestations such as PG loss and cartilage degeneration.Methods:We particularly aimed to screen miRNAs whose inhibition could effectively modulate senescent phenotypes of chondrocytes to treat OA. We investigated the regulatory mechanisms of miR-204 under various stress-eliciting stimuli in primary cultured human and mouse chondrocytes. We examined the in vivo effects of miR-204 overexpression and its antagonism in surgically induced OA mouse models. DMM surgery was used to induce posttraumatic OA in 12-week-old mice. Small RNAs were delivered to mouse knee joints by intra-articular injection. Various OA manifestations including cartilage destruction, subchondral bone sclerosis, osteophyte maturity, and synovial inflammation in mice were histologically inspected.Results:We identify miR-204 as a senescence-associated microRNA (miRNA) which is markedly upregulated in OA cartilage. The upregulated miR-204 simultaneously targets multiple components of the sulfated proteoglycan (PG) biosynthesis pathway, effectively shutting down PG anabolism. Ectopic expression of the miR-204 in joints triggers spontaneous cartilage loss and OA development, whereas inhibition of miR-204 ameliorates experimental OA, with concomitant recovery of PG synthesis and suppression of inflammatory senescence-associated secretory phenotype (SASP) factors in cartilageConclusion:we unravel a stress-activated senescence pathway that underlies disrupted matrix homeostasis in OA cartilage.References:[1]O.

Abstract
Background:Chondrosarcomas are cartilaginous tumors that constitute one-third of skeletal system cancers. Chondrosarcomas are capable of transitioning to highly metastatic and treatment-refractory states, resulting in significant patient mortality. However, the molecular events accompanying this behavior remain unknown.Objectives:We aimed to uncover the molecular pathway underlying such tumor progression that confers a higher malignancy to chondrosarcoma.Methods:We conducted unsupervised gene co-expression network analyses using transcriptomes of patients with chondrosarcoma and extracted a characteristic transcription network underlying chondrosarcoma malignancy. By implementing a system-level upstream analysis of this gene network, we identified the transcriptional factor as a key regulator governing chondrosarcoma progression. We unraveled the functional roles of the identified factor in promoting tumor growth and metastasis of chondrosarcomas in the context of their unique microenvironments.Results:By conducting system-level upstream analysis, we identified a factor as a transcriptional regulator that governs the malignancy gene module. The identified factor was upregulated in chondrosarcoma biopsies associated with a high histological grade and conferred chondrosarcoma cells invasiveness and tumor-initiating capacity. In an orthotopic xenograft mouse model, the identified factor modulated local outgrowth and pulmonary metastasis of chondrosarcoma. Pharmacological inhibition of the identified factor in conjunction with the chemotherapy agents such as cisplatin or doxorubicin synergistically enhanced chondrosarcoma cell apoptosis and abolished malignant phenotypes of chondrosarcoma in mice.Conclusion:Our study provides a proof of concept evidence that inhibiting the identified factor suppresses progression of chondrosarcoma and improves the efficacy of chemotherapy in cellular and pre-clinical levels. Taken together, we believe that our findings provide novel molecular insights for the development of new anti-cancer therapies to target chondrosarcomas.References:[1]Gelderblom H, et al.

Abstract
Abstract
Introduction
Central sleep apnea (CSA) is unique sleep breathing phenotype in patients with advanced chronic heart failure (HF) and portend poor prognosis. The prevalence of CSA in HF patients under contemporary therapy is uncertain.
Methods
We reviewed consecutive HF patients on optimal medical therapy who underwent clinically indicated diagnostic in-lab polysomnography at a single academic center. Age, sex and BMI matched patients without HF were selected from sleep clinic as a control. Patients with atrial fibrillation were excluded from this study. Apnea subtypes were determined after careful scoring and confirmation by sleep physicians. ‘Any CSA’ was defined by central apnea index (CAI) >5 and >1/hr. ‘True CSA’ was defined if met both CAI≥5/hr and > obstructive apnea index (OAI). Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) was defined if apnea hypopnea index >15 and OAI>CAI. Multivariate analysis was performed using logistic regression adjusting for age, sex, HF and systolic dysfunction as appropriate.
Results
In patients with HF (N=95, mean age 59, female: 50%), CSA was low and was comparable to control group (N=94) (HF vs. Non-HF; CSA: 5.3 vs. 4.3%, P=NS; Any CSA 14.7 vs. 17%, P=NS). Only 3 patients with HF had true CSA. In contrast, OSA was common in both groups regardless of obesity status (52.3 vs. 55.3%). In patients with HF, Cheyne Stokes respiration was more frequent in patients with Any CSA vs. without Any CSA (13.3 vs. 3.8%, p=0.04). In multivariate analysis, presence of OSA, but not HF, was associated with Any CSA in entire cohort (Any CSA OR: 3.1 [1.3, 8.1], p=0.02). In patients with HF, male sex was associated with Any CSA (OR: 5.3 [1.1, 40.8], p=0.05). Exclusion of patients with high BMI did not change the results.
Conclusion
CSA was rare in patients with stable HF on contemporary optimal medical therapy.

Abstract
Abstract
Introduction
Abnormal nocturnal blood pressure(BP) such as non-dipping or nocturnal hypertension(reverse-dipping) represents a potent marker for cardiovascular risks. Standard cuff-based ambulatory nocturnal BP measurement yields limited data points potentially resulting in imprecise results, especially compared to continuously recorded BP. We hypothesized nocturnal BP based on periodic measurement would be different from true average beat-to-beat based BP.
Methods
We prospectively enrolled patients undergoing clinically indicated in-lab polysomnography, both CPAP and non-CPAP studies, for sleep apnea evaluation. Nocturnal BP was continuously monitored beat-to-beat by a noninvasive Caretaker™ device, which uses the Pulse Decomposition Analysis(PDA) algorithm. We compared BP recorded at 30-minute intervals with average BP continuously recorded over 30 minutes, both recorded by Caretaker™. We also looked at the differences between recording spot and continuous BP from an awake or sleeping state and BP variability(SD) based on continuously recorded BP. Using first 30 min as a reference, we determined dipping status (dipping: 10-20% reduction, level: 0-10% reduction, riser: any increase) by the two methods.
Results
A total of 18 patients were recruited(male:11, mean age:52.2). Among a total of 261 periodic BP measurements, 60 (30.0%) were obtained while awake. Mean nocturnal SBP by periodic BP measurement was higher compared with beat-to-beat-derived average BP(135.6mmHg[24.2] vs. 131.5[20.3], p<0.0001). The difference between the two methods remained similar when continuous BP was derived from sleep vs. awake period(4.5mmHg[3.1] vs. 7.7[9.9], p=0.202). BP variability was more pronounced during awake compared with sleep period(6.7mmHg[8.1] versus 3.95[7.5], p=0.047). 8 patients were dippers by spot check measurement, but 11 were dippers by continuous BP.
Conclusion
Standard ambulatory periodic nocturnal BP recording may not yield true sleep BP patterns due to its spot-check nature and lack of sleep-awake information, which leads to inaccurate dipping measurements. Incorporation of beat-to-beat continuous BP measurement can provide more accurate and meaningful nocturnal BP information.

Abstract
Abstract
Introduction
Non-pharmacological treatments for restless legs syndrome (RLS) is a treatment option for patients who have not yet started medical treatment, who do not respond to their prescribed medication, or who suffer from adverse effects of medication. This study aims to investigate the clinical effectiveness of low frequency electronic stimulators (LFES) as a non-pharmacological treatment.
Methods
This is a randomized, single-blind study. After screening 64 patients according to the inclusion/exclusion criteria, a total of 46 patients participated in the study. The participants were separated into an active group and a sham group with 22 and 24 members, respectively. The stimulation was administered using the tapping mode (3Hz) present on the machines used, and symptom changes were measured in both groups. The effects of the stimuli were analyzed with repeated measures ANOVA.
Results
Symptom severity was significantly reduced in the active group, and showed significant interaction effects in the time multiple group. Although both the active and sham groups reported improved symptoms upon receiving longer periods of treatment, the effect of the LFES was greater in the active group.
Conclusion
Analyzing the effects of LFES by dividing the active and sham groups revealed that LFES treatment resulted in symptom improvement when using effective stimulation intensity. LFES can be a non-pharmacological treatment option for RLS.

Abstract
Bilateral multiple renal arteries are not-so-rare variations. However, inferior renal polar arteries with a high origin from the abdominal aorta have rarely been reported. We found bilateral inferior renal polar arteries with a high origin from the abdominal aorta in an 84-year-old Korean female cadaver. Two right and three left renal arteries were seen with the lowest as the main renal artery bilaterally. The highest artery crossed the main renal artery and penetrated into the inferior pole of the kidney, respectively. After dissection, each inferior polar artery could be classified as the inferior segmental branch. A further understanding on its embryogenesis might be important since variations in renal arteries are of particular interest to clinicians as well as anatomists.

Abstract
The Hayabusa2 spacecraft investigated the small asteroid Ryugu, which has a rubble-pile structure. We describe an impact experiment on Ryugu using Hayabusa2's Small Carry-on Impactor. The impact produced an artificial crater with a diameter >10 meters, which has a semicircular shape, an elevated rim, and a central pit. Images of the impact and resulting ejecta were recorded by the Deployable CAMera 3 for >8 minutes, showing the growth of an ejecta curtain (the outer edge of the ejecta) and deposition of ejecta onto the surface. The ejecta curtain was asymmetric and heterogeneous and it never fully detached from the surface. The crater formed in the gravity-dominated regime; in other words, crater growth was limited by gravity not surface strength. We discuss implications for Ryugu's surface age.

Abstract
Premature fusion of the cranial suture and midface hypoplasia are common features of syndromic craniosynostosis caused by mutations in the FGFR2 gene. The only treatment for this condition involves a series of risky surgical procedures designed to correct defects in the craniofacial bones, which must be performed until brain growth has been completed. Several pharmacologic interventions directed at FGFR2 downstream signaling have been tested as potential treatments for premature coronal suture fusion in a mouse model of Apert syndrome. However, there are no published studies that have targeted for the pharmacologic treatment of midface hypoplasia. We used Fgfr2S252W/+ knock-in mice as a model of Apert syndrome and morphometric analyses to identify causal hypoplastic sites in the midface region. Three-dimensional geometric and linear analyses of Fgfr2S252W/+ mice at postnatal day 0 demonstrated distinct morphologic variance. The premature fusion of anterior facial bones, such as the maxilla, nasal, and frontal bones, rather than the cranium or cranial base, is the main contributing factor toward the anterior-posterior skull length shortening. The cranial base of the mouse model had a noticeable downward slant around the intersphenoid synchondrosis, which is related to distortion of the airway. Within a skull, the facial shape variance was highly correlated with the cranial base angle change along Fgfr2 S252W mutation-induced craniofacial anomalies. The inhibition of an FGFR2 downstream signaling enzyme, PIN1, via genetic knockdown or use of a PIN1 inhibitor, juglone, attenuated the aforementioned deformities in a mouse model of Apert syndrome. Overall, these results indicate that FGFR2 signaling is a key contributor toward abnormal anterior-posterior dimensional growth in the midface region. Our study suggests a novel therapeutic option for the prevention of craniofacial malformations induced by mutations in the FGFR2 gene.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Recent blood pressure guidelines recommend intensive blood pressure control in diabetic patients with cardiovascular disease.
Purpose
We sought to investigate combined impact of intensive blood glucose lowering and blood pressure control on clinical outcome in diabetic patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI) has not been fully investigated yet.
Method
Korean Acute Myocardial Infarction Registry (KAMIR) – National Institute of Health (NIH) database included 12,179 patients (9,046 men; mean age = 63.6±12.6 year-old) who were discharged alive. Among them, 3,430 (28.2%) had a diabetes mellitus (DM). MACCEs were defined as a composition of all cause death, non-fatal MI, repeat revascularizations including repeated percutaneous coronary intervention and coronary bypass grafting, cerebrovascular accident and rehospitalizations at 1 year. This research was supported by a fund by Research of Korea Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
Result
We determined cut-off value of discharge systolic blood pressure (SBP) to predict 1-year MACCE in DM and non-DM patients. Discharge SBP of less than 130mmHg was associated with a lower MACCE at 1 year compared to SBP level of 130mmHg or greater (10.8% versus 15.4%; log-rank p=0.001) in DM patients, whereas discharge SBP cut-off level was 140mmHg to discriminate 1-year MACCE in non-DM patients (6.4% versus 8.5%, log-rank p=0.045). In DM patients, there were no significant difference in 1-year MACCEs between patients with HbA1c less than 7% versus 7% or greater (12.0% versus 10.7%; log-rank p=0.325). DM patients were categorized into 4 groups; discharge SBP <130mmHg and HbA1c <7% (Group 1); discharge SBP <130mmHg and HbA1c ≥7% (Group 2); discharge SBP ≥130mmHg and HbA1c <7% (Group 3); discharge SBP ≥130mmHg and HbA1c ≥7% (Group 4). Intensive BP control was associated lower 1-year MACCEs in patients with good glycemic control (Group 1 & 3; 10.7% versus 16.7%; log-rank p=0.009). However, in patients with poor glycemic control, intensive BP control did not improve 1-year MACCEs (Group 2 & 4; 10.6% versus 11.1%; log-rank p=0.761).
Conclusion
Strict BP control is more important than glycemic control to improve short-term clinical outcome in DM patients with AMI. However, in patients with poor glycemic control, strict BP control did not improve clinical outcome.

Abstract
Background
Current guideline recommends potent antiplatelet agents and transradial intervention. However, it is uncertain whether routine use of IVUS, thrombus aspiration and glycoprotein IIB-IIIA inhibitor is beneficial for improving clinical outcome in patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI).
Purpose
The aim of this study was to investigate optimal procedural strategy to improve clinical outcome.
Methods
A total of 6,046 patients who underwent primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) for STEMI were analyzed from the Korean Acute Myocardial Infarction Registry (KAMIR) – National Institute of Health (NIH) database. MACCEs were defined as a composition of all cause death, non-fatal MI, repeat revascularizations including repeated percutaneous coronary intervention and coronary bypass grafting, cerebrovascular accident and rehospitalizations. This research was supported by a fund by Research of Korea Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
Results
During the primary PCI, potent antiplatelet agents such as prasugrel and ticagrelor were used in 2342 (38.4%). PCI was performed through transradial approach in 1490 (25.2%). Thrombus aspiration and intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) examination was done in 2204 (36.1%) and 1079 (18.1%), respectively. Glycoprotein IIB-IIIA inhibitor was administered in 1295 (21.7%). Among them, potent antiplatelet agents, transradial intervention, IVUS, and thrombus aspiration significantly reduced MACCEs at 1 year. Glycoprotein IIB-IIIA inhibitor was not effective to improved clinical outcome. In Cox-proportional hazards model, potent antiplatelet agents (hazard ratio 0.82, 95% confidence interval 0.67–0.99; p=0.045) and transradial intervention (hazard ratio 0.61, 95% confidence interval 0.47–0.78; p<0.001) was an independent predictor of MACCEs after adjusting for confounding variables. Combined use of potent antiplatelet agents and transradial intervention (hazard ratio 0.54; 95% confidence interval 0.37–0.80; p=0.002) substantially reduced MACCEs at 1 year.
Conclusion
Among evidence based procedures during the primary PCI, combined use of potent antiplatelet agents and transradial intervention was optimal procedural strategy to improve clinical outcome.
