kn-title=A Self-Adaptive Framework for Deploying Machine Learning Systems Without Ground-Truth Data at Runtime
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=In recent years, the practical application of machine learning technology has rapidly progressed, accelerating its adoption across various fields. In this context, studies into the effective operation of machine learning systems in real-world environments have become essential. In actual operational settings, the distribution of input data often changes over time, leading to a significant decline in the predictive performance of models. Additionally, the lack of ground-truth data for test data during operation can sometimes make adaptation through retraining difficult. This study proposes a framework that autonomously adapts to changes in input data distribution, even in environments where ground-truth data for test data is unavailable during operation. This framework analyzes the distribution of input data and selects the appropriate predictive model based on the state of the distribution. To ensure optimal model selection, the framework employs two complementary approaches: 1) dynamically switching between multiple pre-trained models with different feature sets according to environmental changes and 2) building ensemble models based on the distribution of the test data. These approaches enable the framework to autonomously adapt to shifts in data distribution, even in operational settings where ground-truth data is unavailable. Evaluation experiments using both simulated and real-world data assessed the predictive performance of the proposed method through metrics such as R2, RMSE, and MAE. Compared to conventional single model predictions, the proposed method consistently demonstrated higher accuracy. These results indicate that the proposed approach effectively adapts to data distribution shifts in operational environments where ground-truth data is unavailable.

kn-title=Regulation of brain-specific kinases 1 and 2 (BRSK1/2) by Ca2+/calmodulin
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=We conducted a genome-wide calmodulin (CaM) interaction screening of 462 GST-fused human protein kinases to identify novel CaM-dependent protein kinases (CaMKs). In addition to known CaMKs, including myosin light chain kinases, CaMK2γ, and death-associated kinase 2, we identified the brain-specific protein kinase 2 (BRSK2, also known as SAD-A) as a novel CaM interactant. Proximity biotinylation and CaM–sepharose chromatography assays revealed that rat BRSK isoforms (BRSK1/2) interact with CaM in a Ca2+-dependent manner in vitro. We found that CaM suppresses the activation-loop phosphorylation of BRSK1 (at Thr189) and BRSK2 (at Thr175) by liver kinase B1 (LKB1), an activating kinase, in a Ca2+-dependent manner (IC50 of ∼7 µM), thereby inhibiting BRSK activation. LKB1-catalyzed phosphorylation of the catalytic domain mutant of BRSK1 (residues 1–294) at Thr189 was suppressed by the addition of Ca2+/CaM, consistent with direct CaM binding of the kinase domain, as well as wild-type BRSK1. We confirmed that the LKB1 activity was not directly suppressed by Ca2+/CaM, supporting the hypothesis that the direct interaction of Ca2+/CaM with the kinase domain blocks the phosphorylation/activation of BRSK1/2 by LKB1. The kinase activity and PP2Cα-catalyzed dephosphorylation of LKB1-phosphorylated BRSK1 were not altered by Ca2+/CaM, although it was demonstrated to bind to Ca2+/CaM like that of unphosphorylated BRSK1. This unrecognized mechanism of BRSK1/2 regulation, involving the direct role of Ca2+/CaM binding, which inhibits phosphorylation/activation by LKB1, may open a new Ca2+ signal transduction pathway in neurons.

kn-title=An electric field temporarily strengthens zirconia ceramics
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=By applying an electric field to yttria-stabilized zirconia (8YSZ) equipped with an inert electrode, oxide ions are localized near the positive electrode, causing it to expand. When polarization was performed under different conditions, it was possible to strengthen the material to 1.5 times that of an untreated sample. The lattice constant of the positive electrode surface after polarization was larger than before polarization. When the Vickers hardness of the positive electrode surface was measured by changing the test load, the smaller the load, the higher the hardness value. Polarization caused oxide ions to move near the positive electrode, filling in the defects and generating an expanded layer with a large lattice constant. It is believed that this was subjected to compressive stress from the bulk layer, which had not changed in volume, resulting in an increase in strength.

kn-title=From localized 4f electrons to anisotropic exchange interactions in ferromagnetic CeRh6Ge4
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=CeRh6Ge4 is a cerium-based ferromagnetic material exhibiting a quantum critical behavior under pressure. We derive effective exchange interactions, using the framework of density functional theory combined with dynamical mean-field theory. Our results reveal that the nearest-neighbor ferromagnetic interaction along the c axis is isotropic in spin space, leading to a formation of spin chains. On the other hand, the inter-chain coupling is highly anisotropic: The in-plane moment weakly interacts ferromagnetically in the a–b plane to stabilize the ferromagnetic state, whereas the z-component couples antiferromagnetically, contributing to its destabilization. The magnetic anisotropy of the interchain interactions as well as of the local 4f wavefunctions characterizes the magnetic properties underlying the ferromagnetic transition and the quantum critical behavior in CeRh6Ge4.

en-title=How Can School Counselors Contribute to Developmentally Supportive Student Guidance: An Examination of Support Expansion Through the Use of Planning Sheets
kn-title=スクールカウンセラーは発達支持的生徒指導へいかに貢献できるか ―プランニングシートの活用を通した支援の拡充に向けた検討―
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=　In the revised Guidelines for Student Guidance (2022), the importance of developmentally supportive student guidance, which aims to foster the growth of all students, is clearly emphasized. However, many challenges to its implementation have been identified in school settings, including teachers’ excessive workload and insufficient organizational support systems. Moreover, the support provided by school counselors (SCs) has not yet been sufficiently developed. Therefore, this study examined the potential for expanding SCs’ support in developmentally supportive student guidance by reviewing its current status and challenges. Furthermore, through a reanalysis of a practical case using the Planning Sheet (Hara et al., 2024), the study explored the usefulness of this framework in enabling SCs and schools to share educational goals and collaboratively plan their support activities.
kn-abstract=　2022年に改訂された「生徒指導提要」では，すべての児童生徒の成長を支援する発達支持的生徒指導の重要性が明確に示されている。しかし，その定着には，教員の多忙化や組織的支援体制の不十分さなど，学校現場における多くの課題が指摘されている。さらに，スクールカウンセラー（SC）による支援も十分に展開されているとは言い難い。そこで本稿では，発達支持的生徒指導におけるSCの支援の拡充可能性を検討するため，現状と課題を整理した。また，プランニングシートを活用した実践事例（原他, 2024）の再分析を通して，SCと学校が教育目標を共有しながら協働的に支援を計画する枠組みの有用性を吟味した。

en-title=Preliminary Consideration on the Introduction of Philosophical Thinking into Special Needs Education: A Methodological Framework Based on the Concepts of Duration, Becoming, and Diffraction
kn-title=特別支援教育への哲学的思考導入についての予備的考察 持続・生成変化・回折の考え方に基づく方法的枠組みの試案
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=This paper presents a theoretical and methodological examination aimed at introducing philosophical thinking into the practice of special needs education in response to contemporary challenges in the field. As its theoretical foundation, the study outlines Bergson’ s theory of memory, Deleuze and Guattari’ s philosophy of becoming, Barad’ s diffractive methodology, and Blom’ s diffractive ethnography. Building upon these theories, it proposes a methodological framework that adopts three interrelated analytical perspectives—“material-discursive practices,” “duration,” and “becoming”—for reading and interpreting educational practices. These perspectives, situated within the paradigm of post-qualitative research, make it possible to understand educational events as relational and processual phenomena rather than fixed outcomes. Future issues include the theoretical integration of the three lenses, clarification of the distinctions between diffractive methodology and diffractive ethnography, and refinement of analytical methods for connecting multiple practice episodes.
kn-abstract=　本稿は，現代の特別支援教育の課題から，特別支援教育実践に哲学的思考を導入するための理論的・方法的検討を行うものである。まず，理論基盤として，ベルクソンの「記憶理論」，ドゥルーズ＆ガタリの「生成変化の哲学」，Baradの「回折的方法論」，Blomの「回折的エスノグラフィー」について概説した。そして，理論基盤を基に方法的枠組みとして，「物質－言説的実践」，「持続」，「生成変化」の三つの視点を教育実践を読み解くための相互補完的な分析視点として採用することを提案した。これらの視点は，ポスト質的研究として，出来事を関係的・過程的に捉えることを可能にするものである。今後の課題として，三つのレンズ間の理論的整理，回折的方法論と回折的エスノグラフィーの差異化，および複数の実践エピソードを接続して描くための分析手法の精緻化が挙げられた。

en-title=Tier 1 Support of School-Wide Positive Behavior Support (SWPBS) in the High School Division of a Special Needs School for Students with Intellectual Disabilities: Implementation and Effects of a Campaign-Based Approach
kn-title=知的障害高等特別支援学校における SWPBS 第１層支援 ―キャンペーン方式の導入とその効果―
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=This study examined the effects of a campaign-based intervention implemented as Tier 1 support within School-Wide Positive Behavior Support (SWPBS). It took place at a public upper secondary school for students with mild intellectual disabilities. A “Thank-You Campaign” was conducted with 24 students in one grade level. The frequency of predefined target behaviors was analyzed using AB design with follow-ups. A social validity questionnaire was also administered to six teachers of the same grade. Results showed that both the frequency of the target behaviors and the percentage of students engaging in those behaviors increased after the campaign. These increases remained above baseline levels for a certain period after the campaign ended. The intervention also demonstrated a moderate degree of social validity. These findings suggest that campaign-based approaches can be a useful form of Tier 1 support in SWPBS for students with mild intellectual disabilities at the upper secondary level.
kn-abstract=　本研究は，軽度知的障害のある後期中等教育段階の公立知的障害高等特別支援学校において，SWPBS 第1層支援としてキャンペーン方式の支援を実施し，その効果検証を行った。方法としては，Ｘ学年生徒24名に対して挨拶行動の促進を狙ったキャンペーンを実施し，目標行動の生起数についてABフォローアップデザインを用いて検討した。また，Ｘ学年教員6名に対し，社会的妥当性を評価するアンケートを実施した。その結果，キャンペーンの介入直後に目標行動の生起数および目標行動に従事した生徒の割合の増加が見られ，キャンペーン終了後もベースラインと比較した増加が一定期間確認された。また，一定程度の社会的妥当性も確認できた。

en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract= This study aims to clarify the effects of junior high school students planning community development through collaboration and interaction with others, and the changes in learners that arise from the results of such practice. It also examines how interactions with others, which are emphasized in dialogic learning, can be applied to junior high school practice and what form this should take. The goal of this practice is to foster a change in students' awareness of their town by having them interpret the future and nature of the town from various perspectives in relation to their interactions with others, and consider sustainable ways of living in the town and forming relationships as their own concern. As a result of the practice, students experienced changes in their perspectives and awareness regarding the town and were able to think about the regional issues involved in town development as their own concern.
kn-abstract=　本研究は，中学校総合的な学習の時間における町づくりにおいて，他者との協働や相互作用を通じて町づくりを構想し，実践の結果生じた学習者の変化からその効果を明らかにすることを目的としている。また，対話的な学びで重視される他者との相互作用を，中学校の実践に落とし込み，そのあり方についても検討する。本実践のねらいは，多様な視点から町の将来の姿やあり方を人との関わりについて読み解き，持続可能な町のあり方について自分事に引き寄せて考えることで，町に対する意識の変化を促すことにある。実践の結果，学習者の町に対する見方や考え方の意識変化が引き起こされ，町づくりの持つ地域課題について自分事に引き寄せて思考することができた。

en-title=Practice and Challenges of Elementary School Moral Education Lessons Utilizing Self-Developed Teaching Materials on the Theme of ‘The Dignity of Life’
kn-title=「生命の尊さ」の自作教材を活用した小学校道徳科授業の実践と課題
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=This study investigated whether utilizing self-developed teaching materials for the moral content item "The Dignity of Life" could lead elementary school students to deeply reflect on the value of life in relation to their own experiences. The results confirmed that the use of these materials successfully enabled students to empathize with the characters and engage in deep reflection on the moral value of "The Dignity of Life" in a personal context. Conversely, a challenge emerged: due to the strength of the teacher's intent embedded in the original materials, students were occasionally observed tailoring their comments to align with the teacher's expectations. This suggests a potential, albeit unintentional, directionality imposed on student discourse by the instructor. Finally, this paper discusses the necessity of a continuous cycle of practice and reflection to realize truly student-centered moral education lessons.
kn-abstract=　本研究では，内容項目「生命の尊さ」に関する自作教材を開発し，授業を実施することによって，子どもが「生命の尊さ」を自分との関わりで深く考えることができるかについて検証した。成果として，自作教材の活用によって子どもが教材の登場人物に共感し，「生命の尊さ」の道徳的価値を自分との関わりで深く考える様子が確認できた。一方，課題として，自作教材へ込めた思いの強さから，子どもが授業者の意図を組みながら発言する姿が見られ，意図せず子どもの発言を方向付けた可能性が示された。最後に，子ども中心の授業の実現に向けて，実践と省察の往還の必要性について議論した。

en-abstract=This study aims to develop practicable lessons for high school civics classes that foster an understanding of constitutionalism as the foundation for grasping the Constitution. Traditional Japanese social studies education focused on understanding the Constitution's fundamental principles—popular sovereignty, respect for basic human rights, and pacifism. But, recently, the concept of constitutionalism has gained attention as a means to help students understand what a constitution fundamentally is, and it is now described in textbooks. This study proposes a lesson plan designed to help students appropriately grasp the concept of constitutionalism. In making the lesson plan, we referenced the long-used “We the People” program developed by the Center for Civic Education in U.S. We adapted materials originally created based on the historical context of the United States to fit the Japanese context, utilizing parts of this program.
kn-abstract=　本研究は、憲法理解の基本としての立憲主義に対する認識形成を目標とする、高等学校公民科で実践可能な授業の開発を目指したものである。従来の日本の社会科教育においては、憲法理解は日本国憲法の基本原則である国民主権、基本的人権の尊重、平和主義の理解を基本としていたが、近年、そもそも憲法とは何かを理解させるために、立憲主義の概念が注目されるようになり、教科書にも記述されている。本研究は、そのような立憲主義という概念について生徒に適切に理解させることを目指した授業の提案をしようとするものである。授業計画作成にあたっては、米国の公民教育センターが開発し、長年活用されている『我ら合衆国人民（原題 We the People）』を参照し、その一部を活用し、米国の歴史的背景に基づいて作られた教材を、日本の文脈にそって改変した。

en-title=Methods for Implementing Legal Education in Social Studies to Foster Understanding of Criminal Law Through Developing Junior High School Social Studies Lessons Incorporating Mock Trials
kn-title=刑法の意義を捉えさせる社会科における法教育実践の方法 ―模擬裁判を取り入れた中学校社会科の授業開発を通して―

en-abstract=This study focuses on developing junior high school social studies lessons incorporating mock trials to enhance understanding of criminal law. Legal education in Japanese social studies has traditionally centered on constitutional studies, with very few opportunities to learn about other laws. Given this situation, recent years have seen the development of legal education lessons covering civil law, criminal law, and other areas. Meanwhile, since the introduction of the lay judge system, the development and implementation of social studies lessons incorporating mock trials have become commonplace, and it is no longer unusual for criminal cases to be addressed in social studies classes. This study examines the characteristics and challenges of conventional mock trial-based lessons and aims to develop a junior high school social studies lesson that helps students grasp the significance of criminal law.
kn-abstract=　本研究は、刑法の理解に焦点をあて、模擬裁判を取り入れた中学校社会科の授業開発を行なおうとするものである。日本の社会科における法教育は、従来から憲法学習が中心となっており、その他の法律について学ぶ機会は非常に少ない。そのような現状を踏まえて、近年、民法や刑法などを取り上げた法教育の授業開発が行われるようになった。その一方で、裁判員制度導入以降、模擬裁判を取り入れた社会科授業の開発・実践がよく見られるようになっており、刑事事件が社会科授業で取り上げられることも珍しくはなくなった。しかし、そのような授業を担当する教員に、刑法等に関する知識が十分ではなく、模擬裁判の内容と実際の裁判が乖離しているという課題もある。本研究では、従来の模擬裁判を取り入れた授業の特質と課題を検討したうえで、刑法の意義を捉えさせる中学校社会科の授業開発を目指す。

en-title=Practical Issues on Differences in Hours of Attendance as Seen in an Interview of Initial Appointment Child Care Teachers
kn-title=初任保育教諭の語りに見る園児の在園時間の違いによる実践上の課題
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=In this paper, we examined practical issues and responses through interviews with novice childcare teachers with a focus on the differences in the length of kindergarteners' attendance time, which characterizes certified childcare centers. As a result, it became obvious that childcare teachers were aware of eight challenges. In addition to the challenge with respect to the “development of childcare ensuring the continuity of play” described in the “Guidelines for Education and Childcare for Certified Childcare Centers,” furthermore, a new challenge regarding “understanding of kindergarteners in consideration of their various attendance time and lifestyles” not described in it was identified. Differences in attendance time due to certification classification inevitably lead to differences in time schedules, locations, and groups during certified childcare centers life. Therefore, in order to clarify what common experiences should be established in certified childcare centers life, what differences in experience should be utilized, and what kind of childcare should be practiced based on the goals set by childcare teachers, a future challenge is to collect and organize good practice examples that have been accumulated so far in certified nurseries and to clarify indicators.
kn-abstract=　本論では，幼保連携型認定こども園の特徴である園児の在園時間の違いに焦点を当て，初任保育教諭への面接調査により実践上の課題と対応について検討した。その結果，保育教諭が８つの課題を認識していることが明らかになった。また，『幼保連携型認定こども園教育・保育要領』に記述されている「遊びの連続性を保障する保育の展開」に関する課題に加えて，記述されていない「多様な在園時間や生活形態を考慮した園児理解」に関する新たな課題が見出された。認定区分による在園時間の違いは園生活における時間的スケジュールや場所，集団の違いを余儀なくされる。そのため，保育教諭が設定するねらいに基づいた園生活で何を共通経験とすべき内容として設定し，何を経験差として活かし，どのような保育を実践するか明確にすべく，これまで認定こども園で積み重ねられてきた好実践例を集積・整理し，指標を明示することが今後の課題である。

en-abstract=In the community development of wind band activities, the shortage of instructors and rehearsal spaces has become an urgent issue. This study investigates whether community wind bands can serve as key supporters of community development of children’ s wind band activities progresses. Based on interviews with 20 community wind bands in Okayama Prefecture and text mining analysis, the study revealed differences in their awareness toward community development of club activities. More proactive bands tended to view providing musical instruction to children and engaging in joint activities positively. On the other hand, concerns about instructional skills, time constraints, and the burden of responsibility were identified as potential obstacles. Furthermore, the findings suggest that utilizing public school facilities could help address the issues of rehearsal space and financial constraints faced by community wind bands. However, disparities among municipalities were also found in the actual implementation of public school facility use systems.
kn-abstract=　吹奏楽活動の地域展開（以下、地域展開）において、指導者や活動場所の不足は喫緊の課題である。本研究は、地域展開が進む中で、市民吹奏楽団が地域の子ども達の吹奏楽活動を支える担い手となり得るかを調査・検討した。岡山県内の市民吹奏楽団20 団体への聞き取り調査とテキストマイニング分析の結果、地域展開への意識には差がみられ、積極的な団体では子ども達の演奏指導や合同での活動を肯定的に捉える傾向が確認された。一方で、指導技術や時間的制約、責任負担への不安が障壁となっている可能性が示唆された。また、市民吹奏楽団が抱える活動場所や財政的な課題に対して公立学校施設の活用がその解決に寄与し得る可能性が示唆された。一方で、公立学校の施設開放については、実際の制度運用において自治体間の格差が存在することが明らかとなった。

en-abstract=This paper proposes a Global Citizenship Education program for junior high school music classes. The program aims to promote mutual understanding by having students examine the musical cultures of Japan and Korea, identifying their cultural differences and commonalities. In designing the program, author Konishi drew upon methods of GCED being implemented in Korea, identified through field research conducted during a roughly one-month internship at APCEIU (Asia-Pacific Centre of Education for International Understanding) in Seoul, Korea. The developed program focused on percussion instruments from both Japan and Korea. By comparing these instruments, students identified cultural differences between the two countries. The program then aimed to deepen students' understanding of cultural diversity and the unique value of each country's culture, while also helping them recognize the historical background underlying each nation's musical culture and accept these differences.
kn-abstract=　本論文は、中学校音楽科において、日本と韓国の音楽文化を取り上げて、互いの文化の違いや共通性を捉えさせたうえで相互理解を促進する、グルーバル・シティズンシップ教育（以下、GCED と表記）プログラムを構想しようとするものである。プログラムの構想の際には、筆者である小西が、韓国のソウルのAPCEIU（アジア太平洋国際理解教育センター）で行なった約一か月間のインターンシップの間の実地調査で把握した、韓国で展開されているGCED の方法を参考にした。開発プログラムでは、日韓両国の打楽器を取り上げて、その比較から互いの文化の違いを捉えさせたうえで、違いを受け入れながら、それぞれの国の音楽文化の根底にある歴史的背景に気づかせたうえで、文化の多様性や両国の文化の固有の価値に対する理解を深めることを目指した。

en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=An interdisciplinary lesson practice for the university students leading to the understanding of heterogeneous others was made on a topic of summer climate and the seasonal feeling around Germany, as a continuing study of Kato et al. (2025). In the lesson practice, details of the climate and seasonal cycle around Germany were firstly explained and the German lied “Im Frühling” (In spring) composed by F. Schubert was appreciated, paying attention to how the scenes and emotions expressed by the lyrics “all summer long” in the 3rd verse of this song might differ whether we imagine the climate around Germany or that around Japan. It seems that the present activity provided an opportunity for the students to perceive the climate environments and seasonal feelings quite different from those familiar to them . However, how to explore the appreciation activities that focus also on the musical expression itself of that song is an interesting remaining problem, in order for the students to capture the summer scenery and emotions which Schubert himself imagined.
kn-abstract=　「異質な他者」への出会いを促す授業例の更なる蓄積のため，ドイツ付近の「夏」の気候と季節感に注目した教科横断的な授業を大学で実践した。授業では，ドイツ付近の気候と季節サイクルの中での「夏」の特徴を把握すると共に，シューベルトの歌曲《春に》を鑑賞した。《春に》の3 番の「夏の間じゅう，ずっと」という歌詞で歌われている情景や情感が，ドイツ付近と日本付近を想定した場合にどう違い得るか，に関する受講生の記述を分析した。その結果，日本の夏の高温多湿な環境からは原詩の情感そのものが成立し難いと感じた学生もいるなど，本実践は，自分たちの「当たり前」とは異なる気候や季節感にも目を向ける機会になり得たといえる。一方，日本とはかなり違う気候背景の中でシューベルトが思い描いたであろう情景・心情に授業で深く迫るための，音楽表現自体への踏み込み方についても，今後検討する必要性が示唆された。

en-title=Study on Physical Activity Levels During Soccer Matches Among Junior High School Students Focusing on Position and Physical/Fitness Characteristics
kn-title=中学生を対象としたサッカー試合中の身体活動量に関する研究 ～ポジションと身体・体力特性に着目して～
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=We compared physical and fitness characteristics by soccer position using results from the New Physical Fitness Test administered to 30 junior high school students. Additionally, we compared differences in physical activity levels by position during soccer matches while wearing LC devices. The results showed no significant differences in physical or fitness characteristics between positions. However, significant differences were observed between positions in step count and the proportion of time spent in physical activity by intensity level. This revealed that physical activity levels during soccer matches differ between positions even among junior high school students, clarifying position-specific characteristics in soccer. It also suggested the usefulness of evaluating physical activity levels during matches over time.
kn-abstract=　中学生34人を対象とし，身体・体力特性とサッカー試合中の身体活動量について，ポジションに着目して比較・検討した．その結果，身体・体力特性についてはポジション間に有意な差は認められなかった．歩数ではポジション間で有意差が認められ，ライトサイドバックが少なく，センターミッドフィルダーが高かった．強度別身体活動量時間の割合ではポジション間で有意差が認められ，ライトサイドバックが低く，センターミッドフィルダーが高かった．以上のことから，本研究の対象中学生ではポジション間で身体・体力特性には有意差が認められないが，サッカー試合中の身体活動量ではポジション間で差が生じることが示唆された．

en-abstract=　The purpose of this study was to objectively measure physical activity levels during different school settings among sixth-grade elementary school children using an accelerometer, and to examine their relationship with physical fitness. Participants were 85 children (41 boys, 44 girls). Step counts and time spent in different activity intensities were evaluated during recess, physical education (PE) classes, and the whole school day. Results showed that children with higher fitness levels tended to have greater step counts and more moderate-to-vigorous physical activity (MVPA) during recess. Significant differences were found in morning recess for boys and in lunch recess and PE classes for girls. The proportion of MVPA was 11.3% during recess and 15.7% during PE classes, which was lower than that reported in other countries and did not meet international recommendations. This study provides fundamental data on physical activity in elementary school settings and suggests the importance of enhancing opportunities for physical activity, parti cularly during recess and PE classes.
kn-abstract=　本研究の目的は，小学校6年生の学校生活における活動場面別の身体活動量を加速度計を用いて客観的に測定し，その体力との関係を検討することである．対象は小学校児童85名(男子41名，女子44名)とし，休み時間，体育授業，学校生活全体における歩数と強度別活動時間を評価した．その結果，男女ともに体力上位群は休み時間において歩数とMVPAが多い傾向が示され，特に男子は中休み，女子は昼休みおよび体育授業で有意差が認められた．各活動場面のMVPA が占める割合は休み時間11.3％，体育授業15.7％であり，諸外国と比較して少なく，国際的推奨値にも届かなかった．本研究は，小学校における身体活動量の基礎データを提示するとともに，学校生活，特に休み時間や体育授業における身体活動機会の充実が必要であることを示唆した．

en-abstract=This study focused on the confusion students experience regarding the orientation of images during the learning of convex lens in junior high school. It examined the causes of this confusion, identifying insufficient awareness of experimental conditions such as the light source, screen, and observation location. To investigate, the study analyzed changes in the Course of Study for Lower Secondary Schools and textbooks and conducted a questionnaire survey of science teachers. The results revealed that while textbook descriptions have shifted toward specifying the observation location, teaching methods among teachers vary, causing confusion of students. To address these issues, a 3D-printed teaching material was developed that naturally fixes the observation viewpoint. Its effectiveness was examined through teacher training. This material was found to be effective in promoting students' intuitive understanding and bringing inquiry-based learning.
kn-abstract=　本研究は、中学校理科の凸レンズ学習で生徒が像の向きに抱く混乱に着目した。その要因を、光源・スクリーン・観察場所といった実験条件が十分に意識されてこなかった点にあると考察し、学習指導要領と教科書の変遷分析、および現職教員へのアンケート調査を実施した。その結果、教科書の記述は観察場所を指定する方向へ変化しているものの、現場教員の指導法にはばらつきがあり、生徒の混乱を招く一因となっていることを明らかにした。これらの課題解決のため、観察視点を自然に固定できる3D プリンタ製教材を開発し、教員研修でその有効性を検討した。本教材は生徒の直感的理解を促し、探究的な学びを引き出す上で有効であることが示唆された。

en-title=Critical Reading Instruction of Expository Text that Promotes Reflecting: Practice for First-year Student at High School
kn-title=説明的文章の指導における「内省」を促す批判的読み ―高等学校１年生を対象として―
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=　Critical reading is an essential skill at present time and is included in government guidelines for teaching. Although recent research on teaching critical reading has been conducted, there have been criticisms that lack of consideration of content value and understanding context within society. There are also calls for critical reading that focuses on the perspective of “reflect” . Therefore, this paper developed a lesson that encourages students not only critically read the text, but also critically consider (reflect on) their own ideas. As a measure to achieve this, incorporated activities such as comparing two teaching materials that contained multiple social perceptions, exchanging opinions from opposing perspectives, writing an evaluation of the materials, and having the students themselves evaluate their own writing (their own reading). Analysis of the students’ writings shows that, while some students didn’ t reach conscious reflection, about 60% of students’ writings showed changes. And then it suggests that the methods used were effective.
kn-abstract=　批判的読みは，現代では欠かせない能力であり，学習指導要領にも明記されている。近年，批判的読みの指導に関する研究がなされているものの，内容的な価値の検討や社会的な文脈のなかで捉えることが希薄だとする指摘や，「反省性」という観点に着目した批判的読みを求める声もある。そこで，本稿では，文章そのものを批判的に読むだけでなく，自身の持っている考えをも批判的に捉える（内省する）ことを促す授業を開発した。その手立てとして，複数の社会認識が存在する二つの教材の読み比べたうえで，対立する立場からの意見交換を行うことや，教材に対する評価の記述，その記述（自己の読み）を学習者自身が評価するといった活動を取り入れた。学習者の記述の分析からは，意識的な内省に至らなかった学習者も見受けられたものの，約６割の学習者の記述には変容が見られ，用いた手立ては効果があったと推測できることを指摘した。

kn-title=外国人幼児の就学支援における保育士の工夫と実践的課題
en-subtitle=

en-abstract=This study aimed to clarify the specific practices and challenges faced by preschool teachers in supporting foreign children at the time of school enrollment. Semi-structured interviews were conducted with two preschool teachers who had experience in supporting foreign children, and qualitative analysis using SCAT was applied to organize the support provided to both children and their parents. The results revealed that, in terms of language support, teachers utilized visual aids and simplified Japanese, while in cultural support they sought to balance family culture with the culture of the preschool. Regarding developmental support, the importance of fostering non-cognitive skills and collaborating with medical institutions was highlighted. In parent support, participatory involvement and careful explanations were practiced; however, challenges remained in providing institutional information and establishing collaboration with local governments. Based on these findings, it is necessary to establish a regional collaborative system that can provide institutional support for families with multicultural backgrounds, standardize the provision of information, and build practical mechanisms to connect with Japanese language education resources, so that support does not rely solely on the individual efforts of preschool teachers.
kn-abstract=　本研究は，外国人幼児が就学期に直面する困難に対応するため，保育士が行っている具体的な保育実践における支援の工夫と課題を明らかにすることを目的とした。外国人幼児の支援経験を有する保育士2 名に半構造化インタビューを行い，SCAT を用いた質的分析により，幼児および保護者への支援内容を整理した。その結果，言語面では視覚的支援ややさしい日本語を活用し，文化面では家庭文化と日本の園文化の調整が行われていた。発達支援においては，非認知的スキルの育成や医療機関との連携の必要性が指摘された。保護者支援では，参加型の関わりや丁寧な説明が実践されていたが，制度情報の提供や行政との連携には課題が残された。これらの結果を踏まえ，今後は保育士の個別的努力に依存しないためにも，多文化背景をもつ家庭への支援を制度的に支える地域連携体制の整備や，情報提供の標準化，日本語教育資源との接続を図る実践的仕組みの構築が求められる。

kn-title=Clinicopathological and transcriptomic profiles of 101 patients with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma/high-grade B-cell lymphoma with double-hit MYC and BCL2 or BCL6 and triple hit
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Aims: Diffuse large B-cell lymphoma/high-grade B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL/HGBCL) with MYC and BCL2 rearrangements (double-hit lymphoma with BCL2, DHL-BCL2) is a mature aggressive B-cell lymphoma that also includes concurrent triple hit with BCL6 translocation (TH). DHL with MYC and BCL6 (DH-BCL6) can also occur. The differences among these three DLBCL/HGBCL subtypes have not yet been definitively determined.<br>
Methods and Results: This study characterized the clinicopathological features and transcriptomic profiles of a series of 101 cases of DLBCL/HGBCL that were subclassified according to MYC, BCL2 and BCL6 FISH data, including cell-of-origin (COO)-like, molecular high-grade (MHG)-like and double-hit/dark-zone (DHIT/DZsig)-like signatures. DLBCL/HGBCL-DH-BCL2 was characterized by higher HGBCL morphology, CD10 positivity, GCB Hans's, GCB COO and MHG molecular subtype. DLBCL/HGBCL-TH had higher LDH levels and worse overall survival. DLBCL/HGBCL-DH-BCL6 had higher MUM1 expression, non-GCB Hans', ABC/Unclassified COO, non-MHG and low DHIT/DZ signatures. Transcriptomic analysis showed that DLBCL/HGBCL-DH-BCL2 and DLBCL/HGBCL-TH were close but separated from DLBCL/HGBCL-DH-BCL6. Gene set enrichment analysis (GSEA) revealed different levels of enrichment between the subtypes.<br>
Conclusions: DLBCL/HGBCL-DH-BCL6 differs from the DLBCL/HGBCL-DH-BCL2, and the DLBCL/HGBCL-TH is associated with the worst survival. Analysis of all three genes of MYC, BCL2 and BCL6 is recommended in the context of DLBCL/HGBCL diagnosis.

kn-abstract=Purpose Immune checkpoint inhibitor (ICI)-based combination therapy is a standard first-line treatment for metastatic renal cell carcinoma (mRCC), with combinations such as nivolumab plus cabozantinib (Nivo + Cabo) and pembrolizumab plus lenvatinib (Pem + Len) demonstrating favorable oncologic outcomes. However, no direct comparisons between these two regimens have been conducted. This study aimed to compare the safety and oncologic outcomes of Nivo + Cabo and Pem + Len in patients with mRCC.<br>
Methods This retrospective study included 185 patients with mRCC treated with Nivo + Cabo (n = 81) or Pem + Len (n = 104) between January 2018 and June 2025 across multiple institutions. The primary outcome was a comparison of treatment-related adverse events (TrAEs). Oncologic outcomes, including objective response rate (ORR), progression-free survival (PFS), cancer-specific survival (CSS), and overall survival (OS), were compared using one-to-one propensity score matching.<br>
Results Any-grade TrAEs occurred in 90% of patients in the Nivo + Cabo group and 92% in the Pem + Len group (p = 0.6). Severe TrAEs (grade ≥ 3) were more frequent in the Pem + Len group (44%) than in the Nivo + Cabo group (30%, p = 0.048). Tyrosine kinase inhibitor dose reduction and treatment discontinuation rates were similar between groups. In the matched cohort (Nivo + Cabo: n = 74; Pem + Len: n = 74), ORRs were comparable (66% vs. 71%, p = 0.6). With a median follow-up of 17 months, no significant differences were observed in PFS (p = 0.4), CSS (p = 0.9), or OS (p = 0.5).<br>
Conclusions Nivo + Cabo and Pem + Len demonstrated similar oncologic efficacy as first-line treatments for mRCC. However, Pem + Len was associated with more severe TrAEs. Careful toxicity management and shared decision-making are essential when selecting ICI-based combinations.

kn-abstract=The sintering conditions using hot isostatic press (HIP) of yttria-stabilized zirconia (YSZ) were investigated to obtain a dense YSZ layer at low sintering temperature such as 1000°C for an electrolyte of metal-supported solid oxide fuel cell. It was found that a dense YSZ pellet with relative density of 93% could be obtained under a sintering condition of 1000°C-10 hours with HIP in 195 MPa. On the other hand, in X-ray diffraction analysis of the dense YSZ pellet, peaks of the monoclinic phase were slightly detected in addition to peaks of the cubic phase. From energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy analysis, a small amount of boron was detected in the dense YSZ pellet. It is considered that the YSZ crystalline phase transformation of cubic to monoclinic phase was occurred by the boron diffusion from the diffusion barrier coating of metal foil capsule used for the HIP.

kn-title=A case of tubulointerstitial nephritis with infiltration of neutrophils and interleukin-17-positive cells associated with Behçet’s disease
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Behçet’s disease (BD) is a non-infectious inflammatory condition characterized by neutrophilic infiltration. In addition to primary symptoms, including oral and genital ulcers, ocular involvement, and skin lesions, BD can also affect various organs. However, renal involvement, particularly in tubulointerstitial nephritis, has rarely been described. Herein, a rare case of acute tubulointerstitial nephritis in a patient clinically diagnosed with BD is reported. The renal lesion presented with other symptoms of BD and fever, and was considered to be BD-related due to the presence of neutrophilic infiltration and its responsiveness to BD-directed therapy. Alterations in T-helper (Th) 1, Th2, and Th17 cytokine profiles are associated with BD activity. Interleukin (IL)-17 plays a central role in neutrophil activation, and recent studies have demonstrated a strong correlation between IL-17A levels and BD activity. In the present case, elevated serum IL-17A levels and infiltration of IL-17A-positive cells into the renal tissue reflected an active phase of BD and a BD-associated renal lesion.

kn-title=A Cysteine-Specific Cationization Strategy for Versatile Antibody Production against Intrinsically Disordered Proteins
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Several autoantigens relevant to the immune system, especially those targeted by autoantibodies induced by antitumor responses, tend to be rich in disordered regions and are prone to aggregation. This inherent instability presents significant challenges for the production, purification, and analysis of autoantigens in laboratory settings. Cysteine-specific cationization can effectively solubilize and purify these challenging proteins, allowing the isolation of full-length water-soluble antigens in their denatured state. The purified antigens enable accurate multiplex autoantibody assays using a suspension Luminex bead array platform. However, well-validated positive control antibodies are essential to ensuring precise clinical diagnosis. In this study, we prepared and characterized a panel of control antibodies by immunizing rabbits with cysteine-specific S-cationized antigens. The resulting antibodies predominantly recognized linear epitopes and were highly effective as quality control reagents in autoantibody array assays. Additionally, these antibodies maintained their ability to bind to their native, unmodified intracellular counterparts, highlighting the usefulness of this approach for producing antibodies against intrinsically disordered proteins. Although a modest immune response against the S-cationized modification site was observed, it remained minimal and did not affect the usefulness of the antibodies for assay validation. We propose this versatile cysteine-specific cationization platform for managing unstable proteins rich in disordered regions, supporting antigen production for diagnostics, and antibody development for research and validation purposes.

kn-title=PPy‐Coated Wire Actuators for the Micromechanostimulation of Cells: Fabrication and Characterization
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Cellular mechanotransduction signals play a crucial role in physiological and pathological conditions, including skeletal disorders. Although various systems exist to mechanically stimulate cultured cells, most are constrained by incubator incompatibility, limited physiological relevance, nonuniform stimulation, or complexity. The objective of this article is to develop and validate a compact, incubator-compatible tool capable of delivering localized and physiologically relevant mechanical stimulation to small cell populations. Here, we introduce a polypyrrole-based wire-shaped microactuator designed to induce localized mechanical stress to adjacent cells. These wire-shaped microactuators are biocompatible, easy-to-use, and compact for use within standard in vitro cell culture systems. Using a noncontact optical method, we characterize the actuation of polypyrrole-coated wires in an aqueous NaDBS electrolyte, showing radial expansion of 1.5–8 µm depending on the deposited polypyrrole film thickness, comparable to cellular dimensions. Next, the actuation is confirmed to be robust and stable to use in cell culture media at physiological temperature. To evaluate biological relevance, osteoblastic KUSA-A1 cells are mechanically stimulated inside the incubator and transcriptomic changes are assessed. Mechanical stimulation resulted in upregulation of genes previously associated with mechanotransduction, including Fos and Fosb. Additionally, several uncharacterized long noncoding RNAs are differentially expressed, suggesting potential novel players in the mechanotransduction pathway.

kn-title=SGCRNA: spectral clustering-guided co-expression network analysis without scale-free constraints for multi-omic data
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Weighted gene co-expression network analysis (WGCNA) is among the most widely employed methods in bioinformatics. WGCNA enables the identification of gene clusters (modules) exhibiting correlated expression patterns, the association of these modules with traits, and the exploration of candidate biomarker genes by focusing on hub genes within the modules. WGCNA has been successfully applied in diverse biological contexts. However, conventional algorithms manifest three principal limitations: the assumption of scale-free topology, the requirement for parameter tuning, and the neglect of regression line slopes. These limitations are addressed by SGCRNA. SGCRNA provides Julia functions for the analysis of co-expression networks derived from various types of biological data, such as gene expression data. The Julia packages and their source code are freely available at https://github.com/C37H41N2O6/SGCRNAs.jl.

kn-title=Role-Based Efficient Proactive Secret Sharing with User Revocation
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Proactive secret sharing (PSS), an extension of secret-sharing schemes, safeguards sensitive data in dynamic distributed networks by periodically refreshing shares to counter adversarial attacks. In our previous work, we constructed a non-interactive proactive secret scheme by integrating threshold homomorphic encryption (ThHE) while reducing the communication complexity to 𝑂(𝑛). Not only is refreshing shares important but revoking the shares of users who have left the system is also essential in practical dynamic membership scenarios. However, the previous work was insufficient for supporting explicit user revocation. This study strengthens the description of roles for authorized users and proposes a scheme to achieve non-interactive share refresh and dynamic user management. In each epoch, authorized users are classified into three roles: retain, newly join, and rejoin, and they receive a broadcast of the compact ciphertext encoding both the refresh information and the revocation instructions from the trusted center (dealer). Authorized users independently derive new shares through homomorphic computations, whereas revoked users are unable to generate new shares. Hash functions are used to bind revocation parameters to the cryptographic hashes of valid users in order to guarantee integrity during revocation, allowing for effective verification without compromising non-interactivity. Our new scheme not only extends the revocation structure but also preserves the 𝑂(𝑛) communication complexity.

kn-title=Integrated Authentication Server Design for Efficient Kerberos–Blockchain VANET Authentication
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Vehicular Ad Hoc Network (VANET) is a fundamental component of the intelligent transportation systems (ITS), providing critical road information to users. However, the volatility of VANETs creates significant vulnerabilities from malicious actors. Thus, verifying joining entities is crucial to maintaining the VANET’s communication security. Authentication delays must stay below 100 ms to meet VANET requirements, posing a major challenge for security. Our previous research introduced a Kerberos–Blockchain (KBC) authentication system that contains two main components separately: Authentication Server (AS) and Ticket Granting Server (TGS). However, this KBC architecture required an additional server to accommodate increasing vehicle volumes in urban environments, leading to higher infrastructure costs. This paper presents an integrated authentication server that merges AS and TGS into a Combined Server (CBS) while retaining blockchain security. We evaluate it using OMNeT++ with SUMO for traffic simulation and Ganache for blockchain implementation. Results show that CBS removes the need for an extra server while keeping authentication delays under 100 ms. It also improves throughput by 104%  and reduces signaling overhead by 45%  compared to KBC. By optimizing authentication without compromising security, the integrated server greatly enhances the cost-effectiveness and efficiency of VANET systems.

kn-title=A Study on Zeek IDS Effectiveness for Cybersecurity in Agricultural IoT Networks
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=As agriculture moves toward Agriculture 4.0, which uses Internet of Things (IoT) devices to collect data in real time and monitor things from a distance, these networks are becoming increasingly vulnerable to cyberattacks. A common method used to protect against these kinds of threats is the use of intrusion detection systems (IDS). However, the agricultural environment is often changing and has limited resources, which makes cybersecurity challenging. Several available IDS tools are not designed to work properly in places with few resources, intermittent access, and unpredictable network conditions. This paper investigates the performance of Zeek, an open-source IDS, in identifying potential threats in agricultural IoT networks. We performed both offline and real-time experiments: offline analysis used pcap files from the Stratosphere Laboratory dataset, and real-time evaluation involved simulated live attack scenarios, focusing on unauthorized access attempts and distributed denial-of-service (DDoS) attacks. Zeek's performance was assessed based on CPU and memory utilization, as well as quality of service (QoS) metrics. From the experimental results, we found that Zeek was quite effective in protecting agricultural IoT networks against typical threats. Memory usage remained stable around 5% during offline analysis and under 20% during active attacks. However, CPU usage was more volatile, peaking at 120% during DDoS events. In terms of QoS, the system maintained a good throughput (1,375 kbits/s) with minimal packet loss (0.000186%). Among the attack types that we tested, brute force attacks, which represent attempts at unauthorized access, had the strongest effect on network performance, increasing delay to 2.159 ms and jitter to 0.793 ms. It seems clear that a heavier traffic load during such attacks can interfere with QoS. On the basis of our observation, we recommend practical deployment strategies for agricultural IoT systems that take these limitations into consideration, aiming to keep networks both secure and efficient under pressure.

kn-title=Shared Decision Making における患者参加の諸相と課題の考察
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=This paper traces the historical development of decision-making models in healthcare while exploring the meaning and practical significance of “patient participation” within the shared decision-making (SDM) framework. SDM is a recommended approach to clinical decision-making that emphasizes mutual information sharing and deliberation between physicians and patients. Traditional models often assume that patients can clearly articulate their values, preferences, and treatment goals. However, in actual clinical settings, particularly in cases of serious illness or life-threatening situations, patients frequently face emotional distress and psychological burdens, which can hinder their active participation in decision-making and the expression of their preferences. Based on SDM theory and practice reports, this study argues that SDM should not be viewed merely as a process that promotes patient choice. Even when patients choose not to actively participate and ultimately delegate decisions to healthcare providers or family members, such a choice can represent autonomous decision-making if it arises through meaningful communication and mutual understanding. This perspective calls for a more comprehensive and flexible interpretation of patient participation in SDM practice.

en-title=A Preliminary Study on Nursing Care Technology: A Case Study of Elderly Care
kn-title=介護技術論試論―高齢者介護を事例として―
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=In the first part of this paper, it was confirmed that the term “kaigo” (nursing care) was coined and its meaning defined during discussions on enacting social welfare legislation accompanying societal aging, as the care aspect was being “differentiated” from the “family’s health and welfare functions.” The paper also examined how the term “kaigo gijutsu”(nursing care technique) has been defined and used. In the latter part, based on the author’s own definition of “kaigo gijutsu”(nursing care technology), an attempt was made to analyze examples of technology utilization in nursing care settings, focusing on papers published in specialized welfare and nursing care technology journals. Through this preliminary study, it was shown that the author’s definition of “nursing care technology” clearly distinguishes between the means for care activities—such as welfare equipment—and the care recipients and caregivers who make use of them, and that this definition is useful for grasping the essence of challenges in nursing care settings.

kn-title=The effects of cold compresses on itching in patients with atopic dermatitis: A cross-over controlled pilot trial
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=This cross-over controlled trial aimed to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of two types of cold compresses (towels and ice packs) in alleviating itching among patients with atopic dermatitis. The study recruited 19 participants diagnosed with atopic dermatitis and suffering from chronic itching for over 6 months. Each participant received both types of cold compress interventions. Itching sensations were assessed repeatedly using a visual analogue scale before and after the application of the cold compress. The mean and standard deviation of itching scores for the towel intervention were 16.9 ± 19.1 (baseline) and 11.4 ± 16.1 (post-application). For the ice pack intervention, the scores were 13.6 ± 14.7 (baseline) and 6.2 ± 9.8 (post-application). Although there was a reduction in mean itching scores following the application of cold compresses, the differences were not statistically significant for either intervention. Despite the lack of statistical significance, this study suggests that cold compresses, which are user-friendly and inexpensive, may safely reduce subjective itching in patients with atopic dermatitis without causing pain or discomfort. However, further research with a larger sample size is needed to confirm these findings.

kn-title=Comparing the Activity of Peripheral Blood Mononuclear Cells Frozen Under Electromagnetic Field Freezing and Standard Slow-Freezing
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) are cells obtained from the blood that are used not only in clinical tests but also in various research applications. The slow-freezing (SLF) method, currently the standard for PBMC cryopreservation, involves extended storage at −80°C before transfer to liquid nitrogen. Delays in this transfer, such as overnight or weekend holds, risk a gradual decline in cell viability. Additionally, variability in freezing duration can lead to inconsistent cell quality, emphasizing the need for an alternative freezing method that allows for more timely transfer to liquid nitrogen. This study is aimed at clarifying whether the method of using a freezer with an applied electromagnetic field (EMF) is superior to the currently used standard SLF method for PBMC cryopreservation. A comparison of the number of viable cells, cell viability, and cell activity showed that the EMF method was equivalent to the SLF method. However, the shortest time required for freezing was significantly shorter with the EMF method than the SLF method (0.25 vs. 3 h), allowing for earlier transfer of PBMC to liquid nitrogen. This demonstrates that the EMF method offers an advantage in operational efficiency, particularly for facilities that routinely process and store PBMCs, such as biobanks and other storage-focused departments.

kn-title=Tribolium castaneum with longer duration of tonic immobility have more variations corresponding to the human Parkinson’s disease genomic region
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Parkinson’s disease (PD) is a common neurodegenerative syndrome characterized by the loss of dopaminergic neurons and is also a progressive neurodegenerative disorder that is characterized by dopamine deficiency. We established strains artificially selected for longer and shorter durations of tonic immobility, an antipredator behavior that has received much attention recently, in the red flour beetle, Tribolium castaneum, a model insect species for molecular analyses different from Drosophila melanogaster. Previous studies have shown that the long strains (L-strain) have significantly lower levels of dopamine expression in the brain than the short strains (S-strain) and that they have an abnormal pattern of locomotor activity. Furthermore, previous studies have shown that administering dopamine to L-strain beetles reduces the duration of tonic immobility. Transcriptome analysis of brain and thorax of the L- and S-strains also showed differences in mRNA expression of genes involved in dopamine synthesis and tyrosine metabolism. These results indicate that the phenotype and molecular basis of the L-strain are similar to those of Parkinson’s syndrome symptoms. In order to establish a link between T. castaneum and PD, we compared the DNA sequences of the L- and S-strains to human genes affecting dopaminergic pathways. The DNA comparison revealed many mutated regions in these genes in the L-strain. We discuss the relationship between dopaminergic pathway genes and PD-like phenotypes across humans, Drosophila, and the red flour beetle.

kn-title=Biosensing method of growth diagnosis in the forced culture of strawberries ―Development of crop-identification algorithms―
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=An image-processing algorithm for identifying individual crops is developed for labor-savings and time-series biological information collection. Information including the leaf development frequency are diagnostic indicators of strawberry growth. The algorithm is designed for drones in greenhouses that cannot acquire location information using the global navigation satellite system (GNSS). Drones fly over crop rows and sequentially assign identification numbers (IDs) to crops. Object-detection artificial intelligence (AI) is used to estimate the crop zone, and the ID is based on the crops number difference between frames. The previous misdetection rate was 1.06 %, failing to identify crops, which decreases to 0.31 % using the proposed algorithm. Furthermore, because there are no failures in consecutive frames, IDs are assigned to all crops correctly.

kn-title=Big data-driven target identification by machine learning: DRD2 as a therapeutic target for psoriasis
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Background: The development of medical treatments has traditionally relied on researchers leveraging scientific knowledge to hypothesize disease mechanisms and identify therapeutic agents. However, the depletion of novel therapeutic targets has become a significant challenge, resulting in stagnation within pharmaceutical research.<br>
Objective: To address the scarcity of therapeutic targets, we developed a machine learning (ML)-based system capable of predicting therapeutic target molecules for diseases. To validate its utility, we applied this system to psoriasis, aiming to identify novel treatment strategies.<br>
Methods: Our approach utilized a large clinical database to calculate reporting odds ratios for all drugs associated with the prevention of diseases of interest. We identified target proteins by analyzing large chemical structure databases to discover proteins commonly associated with preventive drug candidates. Experimental validation was conducted by administering a predicted therapeutic candidate in an imiquimod-induced psoriasis mouse model.<br>
Results: The ML-based predictions identified drugs for Parkinson’s disease as potential preventive candidates for psoriasis. Further analysis highlighted dopamine receptor D2 (DRD2) as a therapeutic target. Administration of a DRD2 agonist alleviated psoriasis symptoms in mice, evidenced by the downregulation of mRNA expression in the IL-17 pathway and reduced serum tumor necrosis factor-α levels.<br>
Conclusion: This study demonstrates the utility of a novel ML-based system for identifying therapeutic targets, as shown by its successful application in uncovering the role of DRD2 in psoriasis. Beyond psoriasis, this system offers significant potential for exploring pathological mechanisms and discovering therapeutic targets across various diseases.

kn-title=Numerical analysis validating the standard k-epsilon model for the kinetic energy of turbulence subjected to weak but long-lasting wind tunnel blockage acceleration
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=The aim of this study is to investigate the effect of weak but prolonged mean flow accelerations, such as those observed in wind tunnel blockage acceleration, on free-stream turbulence. Specifically, this research aims to validate a model previously developed based on the k-epsilon model. To test this model, the study focuses on scenarios where the turbulence under acceleration is steady and isotropic, since the model suggests that this type of acceleration has no effect on the turbulent kinetic energy. To examine this suggestion, the turbulence within a periodic box was analyzed using large-eddy simulation (LES) based on the conventional Smagorinsky model framework. The numerical analysis is based on a method that conserves velocity fluctuation intensities. The results show that while high rate of acceleration deviates turbulent kinetic energy, low rate acceleration has hardly any effect on turbulent kinetic energy, enstrophy, pressure fluctuation, relative pressure fluctuation intensity, and higher-order statistics of a velocity fluctuation. These results validate the accuracy of the model proposed in the previous studies. These results were obtained by focusing on differences in Reynolds numbers and the spatial scale of the forcing.

kn-title=Trend of adjusted antenatal care visits on pregnant women and neonatal during the COVID-19 pandemic: Findings from a three districts survey in 2021
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=Upaya pengembangan kesehatan berkelanjutan di tengah wabah penyakit menular seperti COVID-19 memerlukan sistem kesehatan ibu yang tangguh. Dengan kasus yang terus meningkat secara global dan di seluruh Asia, Indonesia menghadapi gangguan signifikan pada layanan esensial. Terdapat kesenjangan penelitian kritis dalam memanfaatkan analisis time-series yang disesuaikan untuk memisahkan dampak pandemi dari variasi musiman di Indonesia perkotaan. Studi ini mengevaluasi tren kunjungan perawatan antenatal (ANC) (Januari 2019–Desember 2020) di tiga Pusat Kesehatan Masyarakat (Puskesmas) di Makassar: Bara-Baraya, Jongaya dan Batua menggunakan analisis Interrupted Time Series (ITS). Temuan menunjukkan penurunan signifikan dalam kunjungan selama kuartal kedua dan ketiga tahun 2020, terutama disebabkan oleh kekhawatiran akan penularan. Kami menyarankan integrasi telemedisin dan kunjungan rumah untuk menjaga kelangsungan perawatan. Meskipun berfokus pada Makassar perkotaan, hasil ini menjadi acuan penting bagi kesehatan dan menawarkan solusi yang dapat diterapkan bagi negara-negara berkembang lain yang menghadapi keterbatasan sumber daya. Studi ini menekankan perlunya strategi pencegahan inklusif untuk melindungi kesehatan ibu di daerah perkotaan dan pedesaan di negara-negara berpendapatan rendah hingga menengah selama krisis kesehatan sistemik.
kn-abstract=Sustainable health development efforts amid infectious disease outbreaks such as Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) require a resilient maternal health system. With cases rising globally and across Asia, Indonesia faces significant disruptions in essential services. A critical research gap exist in utilizing adjusted time-series analysis to isolated pandemic  impact from seasonal variation in urban Indonesia. This study evaluates trends in antenatal care (ANC) visits (January 2019–December 2020) at three Community Health Centres in Makassar: Bara-Baraya, Jongaya and Batua using Interrupted Time Series (ITS) analysis. Findings reveal a significant decline in visits during the second and third quarters of 2020, primarily due to transmission fears. We suggest integration of telemedicine and home visits to maintain continuity of care. Although focused on urban Makassar, these results are an important reference for health and offer applicable solutions for other developing countries facing resource constraints. This study emphasizes the need for inclusive prevention strategies to protect maternal health in urban and rural areas in low- to middle-income countries during systemic health crises.

kn-title=Water-Resistant Antibacterial Coatings Using Cetylpyridinium Chloride - Graphene Oxide Composites
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Hospital-acquired infections remain a persistent threat in healthcare settings, especially with the increasing number of elderly and immunocompromised patients. In situations where the use of disposable materials is difficult, durable antibacterial surface coatings are essential. In this study, we report the structural characterization of cetylpyridinium chloride-graphene oxide (CPC–GO) hybrid materials and the sustainability of their antibacterial effects, aiming at washable antibacterial coatings for medical applications. Graphene oxide (GO) has a large surface area and numerous functional groups, while cetylpyridinium chloride (CPC) is a quaternary ammonium compound with well-documented antibacterial activity. We hypothesized that the stable incorporation of CPC through the functional groups of GO could improve surface retention and provide long-term antibacterial performance. The structural properties of the CPC–GO composites were characterized by UV–vis spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction, thermogravimetric analysis, scanning electron microscopy, and atomic force microscopy. These analyses confirmed the formation of a complex through ionic bonds and the maintenance of a planar composite structure. The antibacterial performance of the CPC–GO coatings was examined using representative bacteria. Notably, the CPC–GO coatings maintained their antibacterial activity significantly better than the negative controls even after multiple washings. The excellent surface retention of the CPC–GO composite suggests its potential as a next-generation antibacterial coating for areas where disinfection and sterilization are impossible, such as the interior of complex medical devices. This study suggests a strategy to extend the efficacy of existing antibacterial agents through the application of nanomaterials. Future studies will focus on the controlled release, long-term stability, and biocompatibility of CPC to realize clinical applications.

kn-title=Seasonal Variations in the Risk of Outpatient Acute Kidney Injury in Patients with Chronic Kidney Disease
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Background/Objectives: Acute kidney injury (AKI) frequently occurs in the outpatient setting and is associated with adverse renal and survival outcomes. However, there is no established definition of outpatient AKI, and the risk factors, especially seasonal variation, remain limited. This study aimed to investigate seasonal variation in the risk of outpatient AKI. Methods: This retrospective observational study used routinely collected clinical laboratory data from a single hospital in Japan between 2007 and 2022. Outpatient AKI was defined as ≥35% relative decline in estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) compared with a preceding outpatient measurement obtained within 14–90 days. Monthly and seasonal variations in outpatient AKI risk in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) were evaluated using logistic regression models. Subgroup analyses were performed according to AKI stage, age group, and CKD stage. Results: A total of 203,853 outpatient records were analyzed. The incidence of outpatient AKI was highest in August and lowest in November. Analyses demonstrated significantly increased odds ratios of outpatient AKI in January, February, July, and August. Seasonally, the risk was significantly higher during the summer. Stage-specific analyses showed that AKI stage 1 was more frequent in the summer, whereas AKI stage 2 tended to increase during the winter. Conclusions: Outpatient AKI exhibits distinct seasonal patterns, with increased risk during both summer and winter and differential associations according to AKI severity and baseline kidney function. Recognition of these patterns may help identify vulnerable populations and inform targeted preventive strategies for outpatient AKI.

kn-title=Adolescent screen use in the pre-internet era and subsequent health and well-being: an outcome-wide longitudinal study
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=This study used data from the National Longitudinal Study of Adolescent to Adult Health (Add Health, N = 11,054) to assess whether increases in screen-based leisure during adolescence (Wave II, from 1996) predicted adult well-being (Wave IV, from 2008-09), adjusting for a wide range of covariates (Wave I, from 1995). Using an outcome-wide analytic approach, we examined associations between screen time and 38 adult outcomes, adjusting for prior screen time, values of most outcomes, and confounders. Most associations were null. Modest evidence was found for links between screen time (continuous) and reduced sense of control, illicit drug use, and allostatic load. High screen time (14 h/week) or more also showed weak associations with lower depression and preventive care use. Because the data predate widespread internet use, the findings help establish a baseline for the long-term effects of non-internet screen activities, which appeared to behave had limited impact on adult health and well-being.

kn-title=A genetic model of congenital intestinal atresia implicates Mypt1 in epithelial organisation
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Congenital intestinal atresia (IA) is a birth defect characterised by the absence or closure of part of the intestine. Although genetic factors are implicated, mechanistic understanding has been hindered by the lack of suitable animal models. Here, we describe a medaka (Oryzias latipes) mutant, generated by N-ethyl-N-nitrosourea (ENU) mutagenesis, that develops IA during embryogenesis. Positional cloning identified a nonsense mutation in mypt1, encoding myosin phosphatase target subunit 1. Mutant embryos exhibited ectopic accumulation of F-actin and phosphorylated myosin regulatory light chain (Mrlc) in the intestinal epithelium, consistent with disrupted actomyosin regulation. These cytoskeletal abnormalities were accompanied by epithelial disorganisation, without notable alterations in cell proliferation, motility or apoptosis. Inhibition of myh11a, encoding smooth muscle (SM) myosin heavy chain, ameliorated the IA phenotype, whereas blebbistatin treatment completely rescued the defect, suggesting a non-contractile role prior to SM maturation. Together, these findings demonstrate that mypt1 loss disrupts intestinal morphogenesis through actomyosin dysregulation. Given the recent clinical identification of IA associated with MYPT1 variants, this medaka model offers a valuable platform to investigate the developmental and molecular basis of MYPT1-associated IA in humans.

kn-title=Development of FTase inhibitors inspired by the structures of andrastins
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=We designed and synthesized structurally simple farnesyl transferase (FTase) inhibitors (1a–1d) by leveraging andrastin, a natural product with FTase inhibitory activity. 1a–1d possess a cyclopentane-1,3-dione core, which is critical for FTase recognition; a farnesyl moiety, which is a simplified motif of A to C rings of andrastin; and a carboxylic acid or methoxycarbonyl group, which enables multipoint hydrogen bonding interactions with FTase. Competitive inhibition experiments revealed that 1d has the most potent FTase inhibitory activity. Docking simulation analysis of 1a–1d with FTase suggested that the multipoint hydrogen bonding interactions between the cyclopentane-1,3-dione moiety and the carboxyl group play an important role in FTase recognition.

kn-title=A Proposal of Secure and Automated Over-the-Air Firmware Update Mechanism for IoT Devices Using Continuous Integration and Continuous Delivery
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=The Internet of Things (IoT) technology has grown rapidly over the past decade, resulting in deployments of thousands of IoT devices around the world. Then, managing firmware updates for these numerous devices poses significant challenges. Firmware updates face issues such as version rollback, modified firmware files, and potential man-in-the-middle (MITM) attacks, highlighting the need for a secure over-the-air (OTA) firmware update mechanism. In this paper, we propose an automated OTA firmware update mechanism, integrated with continuous integration (CI) and continuous delivery (CD) to ensure trusted sources for firmware origins. It offers security, error handling during firmware updates, and monitoring of the update process. For evaluations, we implemented the proposal with the SEMAR IoT application server that has been implemented in our previous studies. Then, we verified the integrity and authentication, measured the performance and resource utilization, and performed benchmarking tests to assess the efficiency. The results demonstrate that the proposal is sufficiently reliable and efficient.

kn-title=A Simple Method for RNA-Seq of Manually Isolated Chromatophores in Oryzias Fishes
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) has become an essential tool for analyzing gene expression and exploring cell type–specific transcriptomes. However, sample preparation and quality control remain challenging, as current approaches typically rely on dissecting tissues containing mixed cell populations or using flow cytometry to isolate fluorescently labeled cells. Here we present a simple and reliable method for RNA-seq of chromatophores (pigment cells) by manually isolating cells based on their natural pigmentation. We analyzed four chromatophore types—melanophores, xanthophores, iridophores, and leucophores—in medaka (Oryzias latipes). Remarkably, as few as 100 cells per type yielded reasonably high-quality transcriptomes sufficient to identify differentially expressed genes (DEGs). Furthermore, this method was successfully applied to a non-model medaka species, O. woworae, which shares the same four chromatophore types. Our approach enables efficient, low-cost, and cross-species transcriptome analysis of chromatophores without requiring transgenic markers or flow cytometry.

en-subtitle=

kn-abstract=　Large-scale rainfall characteristics at the heavy rainfall event around the western Japan for 5–7 July 2018 were analyzed with use of the 10-mimute precipitation data at the surface meteorological observation stations of the Japan Meteorological Agency, and so on. In this case, the area with 3 days total precipitation of near or more than 300 mm was distributed widely from northern Kyushu to Shiga and Fukui Prefectures. As in the many heavy rainfall events around Kyushu District in the mature stage of the Baiu season, contribution of the intense rainfall with more than 4 mm/10-minute (24 mm/h) attained about one third of the areal mean total precipitation. However, it is noted that the "not so intense rain" with less than 2 mm/10-minute (12 mm/h) also contributed to about one third of the huge total precipitation in the wide area. In short, this case could be characterized by the mixture of the western Japan type heavy rainfall event and the eastern Japan type one.

en-abstract=
kn-abstract=　In the disaster prevention education on the heavy rainfall around Japan, it is also important to promote the meteorological literacy on the seasonal and regional differences of their rainfall characteristics such as the convective rain or stratiform rain, together with their total amount of precipitation and their occurrence frequency. As the first step toward the above purpose, the present study made a lesson practice for the university students by utilizing the 10-minute precipitation data for the four heavy rainfall events, in which the types of the heavy rainfall (although all the cases examined in the lesson are relating to the deep convective clouds) are rather different from each other, such as the differences of the rainfall intensity at the peak time, short-period variation of the rainfall intensity and the persistency of the rainfall including the "not so intense rainfall". The reports by the students seem to perceive the different features among these events briefly, but the students' attention to how long the intense rainfall with short-period variation or "not so intense rainfall" lasted was not so sufficient.

en-title=Petrological study of Sue ware from the Sabukaze kiln site, Okayama Prefecture
kn-title=寒風古窯跡群須恵器の岩石学的研究
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=　The Sabukaze kiln site, a representative ancient tunnel-kiln site in the Kibi region, worked during the Asuka period (from early 7th century to early 8th century) to produce Sue ware including jars, cups, coffins, and ornamental tiles. To determine the provenance of the materials used for the Sue ware, we carried out petrological analyses of 13 Sue sherds, including optical microscopy, X-ray diffractometry, X-ray fluorescence spectroscopy, Raman spectroscopy, and electron-probe analysis. In spite of the difference of production time, all the Sue sherds show close similarities in modal proportion of mineral inclusions with dominant quartz and feldspar, and minor volcanic glass, in chemical compositions of feldspar and interstitial matrix, and in whole-sherd chemical composition. These similarities suggest that the paste materials of the Sabukaze Sue ware were commonly derived from weathered rhyolitic rocks and obtained from the same or neighboring mining site(s) located near the kiln site.

en-abstract=
kn-abstract=　This report describes microtremor array observations conducted at two sites for deep exploration and three sites for shallow exploration around Kojima Bay area in the southern Okayama Plain. Based on these records, the ground velocity structures were estimated. The results yielded solutions indicating the depth of the top of the seismic base layer (equivalent to 3 km/s layer) ranges from 140 to 300 m, while the depth of the top of the engineering basement layer (equivalent to 0.6 km/s layer) is approximately about 13–14 m. The shallow exploration results also suggested the possible presence of an inversion layer. These estimated velocity structure models provided a reasonable explanation for the observed phase velocities.

en-title=Does Environmental Spending Reduce Firm Risk? Evidence from Japanese Companies
kn-title=環境支出は企業リスクを軽減するのか？日本企業の実証分析
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=　This study examines how environmental conservation costs (ECC) affects firm risk, using changes in leverage ratios and earnings volatility as stand-ins for risk. This study evaluates the direct impact of ECC and its relationship to profitability (ROA) using panel data of Japanese companies from 2010 to 2022 and Pooled OLS regression models. The results demonstrate the risk-mitigating function of sustainability investments by showing that, although independent ECC have little direct significance, their interaction with firm profitability dramatically lowers earnings volatility and leverage instability. These findings underscore the economic value of environmental strategies, suggesting that incorporating profitability considerations into sustainability practices enhances operational stability and reduces risk exposure. To help policymakers, investors, and corporate managers strike a balance between sustainability and financial performance, this study contributes to the growing body of research on the relationship between the environment and finance.

en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=We report the electronic structure of the thermoelectric semimetal Ta2PdSe6 with a large thermoelectric power factor and giant Peltier conductivity by means of angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy (ARPES). The ARPES spectra reveal the coexistence of a sharp hole band with a light electron mass and a broad electron band with a relatively heavy electron mass, which originate from different quasi-one-dimensional (Q1D) chains in Ta2PdSe6. Moreover, the electron band around the Brillouin-zone (BZ) boundary shows a replica structure with respect to the energy originating from plasmonic polarons due to electron-plasmon interactions. The different scattering effects and interactions in each atomic chain lead to asymmetric transport lifetimes of carriers: a large Seebeck coefficient can be realized even in a semimetal. Our findings pave the way for exploring the thermoelectric materials in previously overlooked semimetals and provide a new platform for low-temperature thermoelectric physics, which has been challenging with semiconductors.

kn-title=Verification of a Skin Electrical Impedance Model for Evaluating Indicators of Skin Barrier Function of Older Adults
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Skin barrier function has been quantitatively evaluated through trans-epidermal water loss, which has been difficult to measure in clinical settings owing to environmental factors and the measurement time. The thickness and surface water content of the stratum corneum are important indicators of skin barrier function, and current methods for measuring these two indicators are also difficult to implement in clinical settings. Therefore, we developed a model based on skin electrical impedance to estimate the thickness and water content of the stratum corneum, enabling measurement and estimation of these two indicators in a short time. In this study, we verified this model implemented in a portable skin electrical impedance measurement device for estimating the thickness and surface water content of the stratum corneum of the skin in older adults. Thirty-four older individuals were studied. The measurement electrodes were placed in contact with the forearm skin, and an alternating signal of two frequencies was applied to measure the impedance, from which the thickness and surface water content of the stratum corneum were estimated in approximately 5 s. The correlation coefficients between the estimated and measured thickness and between the estimated and measured surface water content were 0.732 and 0.604, respectively. Furthermore, the root mean square errors of the residuals for the thickness and surface water content were 1.66 µm and 3.50 points, respectively, indicating that the model accurately estimated the thickness and surface water content of the stratum corneum, even in the skin of older adults.

kn-title=Effects of Overload on Imiquimod‐Induced Psoriasis Model Mice: A Basic Experimental Study
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Background and Aim: Psoriasis is a skin disorder complicated by arthritis and enthesitis. The cytokines interleukin (IL)-17, IL-23, and tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α are reportedly key effectors of psoriasis. Additionally, gamma delta (γδ) T cells exacerbate inflammation by producing inflammatory cytokines such as IL-17 and TNF-α. However, details regarding the mechanisms linking pathogenesis and mechanical stress remain unclear. This study aimed to investigate the effect of strenuous exercise on the pathology of psoriasis using mouse models of imiquimod (IMQ)-induced psoriasis.<br>
Methods: Twenty mice were randomly assigned to four groups: IMQ − TRED− (control), IMQ − TRED+ (treadmill running mice), IMQ + TRED− group (IMQ treated mice), and IMQ + TRED+ group (IMQ treated and treadmill running mice). The tissue sections from back skin and thymus were immunostained with antibodies against IL-17, IL-23, and γδ T cells. Shoulder sections were stained using hematoxylin and eosin, and Toluidine Blue and Picrosirius Red. Additionally, the shoulder tissue sections were immunostained with antibodies against TNF-α and matrix metalloproteinase (MMP)-13. Serum cytokine level was measured to evaluate systemic inflammation.<br>
Results: Strenuous exercise exacerbated pathological changes associated with psoriasis, including increased γδ T cell infiltration and upregulated IL-17 and IL-23 expression in the skin, as well as enhanced γδ T cell development and IL-17 expression in the thymus. Although strenuous exercise did not further worsen the modified PASI scores, histological and immunological markers of inflammation were significantly enhanced. Serum levels of TNF-α and IL-17 were significantly elevated in IMQ-induced psoriasis model mice. Moreover, pathological changes induced by strenuous exercise were observed in the enthesis, including angiogenesis and upregulated expression of TNF-α and MMP-13.<br>
Conclusion: This study revealed that strenuous exercise exacerbates pathological changes in IMQ-induced psoriasis model mice.

kn-title=Mechanosensitive Ion Channel PIEZO1 Suppresses BMP2-Induced Ossification of the Annulus Fibrosus Cells
en-subtitle=

en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Objective: Major cause of low-back pain is intervertebral disc degeneration (IVDD), with mechanical stress playing a crucial role in its progression. A mechanosensitive ion channel, PIEZO1, is involved in various musculoskeletal tissues, but its role in the annulus fibrosus (AF) remains unclear. This study aimed to elucidate the function of PIEZO1 in AF cells under mechanical stimulation.<br>
Methods: Primary rat AF cells were subjected to cyclic tensile strain (CTS) at low (2%) and high (12%) strain levels to investigate strain-dependent effects on osteogenic gene expression. We evaluated the effects of Piezo1, Piezo2, and Trpv4 knockdown by RNA interference to identify the upstream mechanotransducer. Furthermore, PIEZO1 was activated using the agonist Yoda1, followed by RNA-sequencing analysis and evaluation of its effects on BMP2-induced osteogenesis in rat AF cells. We also examined the effects of Yoda1 in primary human AF cells.<br>
Results: Low-strain CTS significantly suppressed osteogenic marker expression, which was not observed with high strain. Piezo1 knockdown reversed this suppression, whereas Piezo2 and Trpv4 had no effect. Piezo1 activation by Yoda1 produced similar anti-osteogenic effects in both rat and human AF cells. RNA sequencing revealed the enrichment of ossification and calcineurin signaling pathways in rat cells. Furthermore, Piezo1 activation inhibited BMP2-induced osteogenesis and nuclear translocation of p-Smad1/5/9.<br>
Conclusions: Piezo1 maintains AF cell homeostasis under mechanical stress by suppressing osteogenic changes via calcineurin-mediated inhibition of BMP signaling, which may represent a novel therapeutic target for IVDD.

kn-title=Environmental Conservation Costs and Operational Efficiency: Evidence from Japanese Manufacturing Firms
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=　This study investigates whether environmental conservation costs (ECC) support the operational effectiveness and financial stability of Japanese manufacturing firms. Using a balanced panel of 128 non-financial companies listed on the Tokyo Stock Exchange from 2010 to 2022, we manually collected firm-level ECC data based on the Ministry of the Environment, Japan's guidelines from sustainability reports and matched them with financial data from Compustat Global/S&P Capital IQ. Applying pooled ordinary least squares regression with firm-level clustered standard errors and winsorized variables, we examine two aspects of performance as measures of operating efficiency and profitability: asset turnover and profit margin. The results show that ECC is positively associated with asset turnover and profit margin, and that the effect is stronger in more profitable companies, substantiating the Resource-Based View that green practices generate competitiveness. These findings contribute to sustainability finance research by going beyond perceptual measures of environmental, social, and governance ratings, and measuring actual firm-level spending on environmental activities, thereby providing more nuanced insights into how environmental practices translate into actual financial performance. This study offers clear managerial and policy implications by showing that transparent environmental conservation costs improve disclosure quality and serve as a measure of improved efficiency and profitability.

en-title=Re-theorizing Consumer Behavior in the Age of Human–AI Coexistence: The AIBCBM Framework
kn-title=AI 共生時代における消費者行動の再理論化―AIBCBM フレームワーク―
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=　This study aims to construct and present the AI-Based Consumer Behavior Model（AIBCBM） as a theoretical framework that systematically explains the tripartite interaction among companies, consumers, and AI in environments where AI intervenes from the pre-decision stage. First, it identifies the critical theoretical limitations of existing consumer behavior models, which fail to adequately address contemporary phenomena such as algorithmic exposure, recursive learning loops, and AI-mediated social influence. Building upon this, the study presents the AIBCBM （AI-Based Consumer Behavior Model）, which conceptualizes consumer behavior in the era of AI symbiosis as a tripartite cyclical structure involving“ business–AI–consumer.”<br>
　In constructing the model, rather than oversimplifying complex reality, theoretical clarity and analytical tractability are ensured by separating it into a tripartite co-evolutionary structure model （Figure 2）, a behavioral process model illustrating the dynamics of behavior generation（Table 3）, a conceptual structure model（Figure 3）, and a behavioral typology model（Figure 4）. The theoretical contributions of this study are summarized in five points:<br>
（1） redefining System 1 as a behavioral generation mechanism;<br>
（2） redefining decision-making agents and power structures;<br>
（3） theoretically modeling nonlinear, high-speed feedback loops in consumer behavior;<br>
（4） Theoretical redefinition of non-consumption and JOMO as strategic behaviors grounded in well-being and human agency.<br>
（5） reconceptualizing consumer behavior from a "decision-making model" to a "behavior generation model."<br>
　Moreover, the duality highlighted in this study—where algorithm-driven utility enhancement and autonomy impairment can coexist—provides a new normative and theoretical evaluation framework for marketing strategies and policy design in the AI era. AIBCBM functions as a theoretical platform that integrates these perspectives, serving as a foundation for future theoretical development and empirical validation. In particular, AIBCBM is distinctive in positioning JOMO and non-consumption not as passive withdrawal from algorithmic environments, but as strategic behaviors through which consumers intentionally calibrate their distance from AI-constructed choice architectures to preserve human agency, well-being, and human-likeness.<br>
　Finally, the proposed model serves as a theoretical coordinate framework that systematically connects firm-side AI design, algorithmic dynamics, and consumer agency and well-being, thereby bridging empirical inquiry and normative design in the age of AI co-existence.
kn-abstract=　本研究は，AIが意思決定の前段階から介入する環境において，企業・消費者・AIの三者相互作用を体系的に説明する理論枠組みとして，Artificial Intelligence-Based Consumer Behavior Model（AIBCBM）を構築し，提示することを目的とする。まず，既存の消費者行動モデルが，アルゴリズム露出，再帰的学習ループ，AI媒介型社会的影響（Algorithmic Social Influence）といった現代的現象を十分に扱えないという決定的な理論的限界を明らかにする。そのうえで，AI共生時代における消費者行動を，「企業－AI－消費者」の三者循環構造として捉えるAIBCBMを提示する。<br>
　モデル構築に際しては，複雑な現実を過度に単純化するのではなく，三者共進化構造モデル（図２），行動生成の動態を示す行動プロセスモデル（表３），概念構造モデル（図３），行動類型モデル（図４）に分離することで，理論的明瞭性と分析可能性を確保した。本研究の理論的貢献は，①System １を行動生成メカニズムとして再定義した点，②意思決定主体と権力構造を再定義した点，③消費者行動における非線形・高速フィードバックループを理論化した点，④非消費やJOMOを，幸福と主体性に根ざした戦略的行動として理論的に再定義した点，⑤消費者行動を「意思決定モデル」から「行動生成モデル」へ理論的に転換した点に集約される。さらに，本研究が提示する，アルゴリズムによる効用の向上と自律性の毀損が併存しうるという二面性は，AI時代におけるマーケティング戦略および政策設計に対して，規範的かつ理論的な新たな評価軸を提供する。AIBCBMは，これらの視座を統合する理論的プラットフォームとして，今後の実証研究に向けた基盤として機能する。とりわけ， AIBCBMは，JOMOや非消費行動を，アルゴリズム環境からの受動的撤退ではなく，AIによって構築された選択環境との距離を意図的に調整し，人間らしさ（人間としての主体性やウェルビーイング）を保持するための戦略的行動として位置づける点に独自性を有する。さらに本モデルは，AI設計（企業側）・アルゴリズム動態（AI側）・主体性とウェルビーイング（Well-being）（消費者側）を同一枠組みで接続することで，AI共生時代の実証研究と規範設計を架橋する理論的座標軸を確立する。

en-title=Network Analysis of Interregional Information Exchange: A Study in the Takahashi River Basin Area
kn-title=地域間での情報交流に関するネットワーク分析：高梁川流域圏での調査による
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=　This paper conducted network analysis focusing on information exchange among participating entities in the "Takahashi River Basin Economic Growth Strategy Council," operating within Okayama Prefecture's "Takahashi River Basin Core City Area." The Takahashi River Basin Collaborative Core City Area（ Takahashi River Basin Area）is a collaborative core city area encompassing ten municipalities located around the Takahashi River in Okayama Prefecture: Niimi City, Takahashi City, Soja City, Hayashima Town, Kurashiki City, Yakage Town, Ibara City, Asakuchi City, Satosho Town, and Kasaoka City. For the network analysis within the Takahashi River Basin Area, projects implemented within the area were classified into eight categories. A questionnaire survey was conducted regarding information exchange among participating entities for each project. Network metrics included calculating centrality indices（ degree centrality and betweenness centrality） for each project, along with density, transitivity, and reciprocity. By project type, tourism projects exhibited the densest network structure for information exchange. From a network perspective, tourism projects can be considered the most actively pursued initiative within the Takahashi River Basin area. Furthermore, across all projects, centrality indicators for specific administrative bodies and regional economic organizations, such as chambers of commerce and industry, generally showed high values. This clearly indicates their function as hubs for information exchange and as entities concentrating or dispersing information within the network. Based on the results of network analysis, two recommendations for future regional development in the Takahashi River Basin were proposed from a network perspective. The first is to aim for dense networks across all businesses by sharing the roles of information exchange hubs and information concentration/distribution entities among the entities involved, depending on the business. The second is to aim for a dense network overall by eliminating entities that are not participating at all in the Takahashi River Basin's information exchange network.
kn-abstract=　本稿では，岡山県の「高梁川流域連携中枢都市圏」で2014年から開催されている「高梁川流域経済成長戦略会議」における参加主体間の情報交流についてのネットワーク分析を行った。高梁川流域連携中枢都市圏（高梁川流域圏）とは，岡山県高梁川周辺に位置する現在の新見市，高梁市，総社市，早島町，倉敷市，矢掛町，井原市，浅口市，里庄町，笠岡市の10自治体が参加している連携中枢都市圏である。高梁川流域圏におけるネットワーク分析に際しては，同圏域内で展開されている事業を８つに分類し，それぞれの事業に関する参加主体間の情報交流についてアンケート調査を行った。ネットワーク指標については事業ごとに次数中心性と媒介中心性の中心性指標を，また事業別に密度，推移性，相互性を算出した。事業別にみると，観光事業についての情報交流が最も密なネットワーク構造をしており，ネットワークの視点では観光事業が高梁川流域圏内で最も勢力的に行われている事業といえる。また全事業において特定の行政主体や商工会議所をはじめとする地域経済団体等の中心性指標が全体的に大きな値をとっており，ネットワークにおいて情報交流のハブや情報の集中・分散主体として機能していることが明らかになった。分析結果を踏まえ，ネットワークの視点から高梁川流域圏の今度の地域振興について２点提言した。１つは事業によって情報交流のハブや情報の集中・分散主体を主体間で分担することによって，すべての事業で密なネットワークを築くことを目指すことである。もう１つは高梁川流域圏の情報交流ネットワークに全く参加していない主体をなくすことで，全体的に密なネットワークを目指すことである。

en-title=The 1998 Amendment to the Foreign Exchange and Foreign Trade Control Act and the Classification of Income from Gains and Losses on Foreign Currency Transactions: How Did the Amendment of 1998 Affect Income Classification?
kn-title=1998年の外国為替及び外国貿易管理法改正と 外国通貨の譲渡による損益の所得区分 ―1998年の法改正は所得区分にどのような影響を与えたのか―
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=　The 1998 amendment to the Foreign Exchange and Foreign Trade Control Act（ subsequently renamed the Foreign Exchange and Foreign Trade Act） liberalized foreign exchange transactions, which had previously been restricted in principle to authorized foreign exchange banks. This amendment allowed all companies and individuals to freely conduct such transactions.<br>
　This paper first examines the basis for the tax authorities' view that "gains or losses from foreign currency transfers constitute miscellaneous income," drawing from government witness testimony in the Diet and the Tokyo District Court judgement of March 9, 2023. Then it concludes that the 1998 legal amendment, by enabling anyone to freely conduct foreign currency transactions both internationally and domestically, transformed foreign currency into a means of payment functioning as a measure of value. Consequently, it became impossible to conceptualize foreign currency as an asset subject to appreciation or depreciation, leading to the reclassification of income from its transfer from capital gains to miscellaneous income.
kn-abstract=　1998年の外国為替及び外国貿易管理法の改正（以降，外国為替及び外国貿易法に改名）により，それまで外国為替公認銀行に原則として限られていた外国為替取引が，あらゆる企業及び個人に解放され，自由に行うことができるようになった。<br>
　本稿は，まず課税当局の「外国通貨の譲渡による損益は雑所得に該当する」との見解の判断根拠を，国会における政府参考人答弁及び東京地裁令和５年３月９日判決から読み解き，そのうえで，1998年の法改正により外国通貨取引が対外及び国内において何人も自由に行うことができるようになったことから，外国通貨は支払手段として言わば価値の尺度として機能するようになり，資産の値上がり，値下がりを観念することができなくなった結果として，その譲渡による所得区分が譲渡所得から雑所得へと変化したとの結論を導くものである。

kn-title=Aging of the tricuspid valve annulus detected by photon-counting detector computed tomography: Importance of aortic root compression on occurrence of arrhythmias
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Background The aortic root compresses the heart in elderly patients, potentially influencing the conduction system and causing atrial tachyarrhythmias. However, actual anatomic alterations in the right side of the heart because of aortic root compression have not yet been fully evaluated.<br>
Objective This study aimed to elucidate the alterations in the tricuspid valve annulus (TVA) caused by aortic root compression using a 3-dimensional endoscopic view of the heart constructed by photon-counting detector computed tomography, an emerging medical technology.<br>
Methods We analyzed 147 consecutive patients who underwent photon-counting detector computed tomography at our institute after excluding those with diseases that directly influenced the right side of the heart.<br>
Results Aortic root compression caused significant TVA deformation. We defined severe TVA compression as the length of the TVA compressed by the aortic root ≥80% of the major axis of the TVA. Severe compression was more prevalent in elderly patients (age ≥75 years [44%]; P < .01). The distance between the membranous septum and ostium of the coronary sinus was shortened, whereas the cavotricuspid isthmus was elongated in older patients. The regression analysis identified aging as a significant contributor to TVA compression. The short minor and long major axes of the TVA, incidence of atrial tachyarrhythmias (74% vs 45%; P < .01), and atrioventricular conduction disturbances (35% vs 15%; P < .01) were more frequently observed in patients with severe compression.<br>
Conclusion Aortic root compression deforms the TVA and alters the anatomic relationship between the atrioventricular conduction system and the cavotricuspid isthmus. Therefore, aortic root compression may contribute to the occurrence of atrial tachyarrhythmias and conduction disturbances in older patients.

kn-title=Alcohol consumption, smoking, and the implications of their cessations for field carcinogenesis in the esophagus: a 10-year prospective cohort study
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Background Alcohol and tobacco are established carcinogens, which promote field carcinogenesis for esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC). This study aimed to evaluate the long-term effects of alcohol and tobacco cessations, and background mucosal status, on risk for metachronous ESCC (mESCC) after endoscopic resection (ER).<br>
Methods This was a multicentre prospective cohort study of patients with intramucosal ESCC treated by ER. All participants received structured education on cessation, and underwent regular endoscopic surveillance. Patients were stratified by Lugol-voiding lesion (LVL) grade (A: none, B: 1–9, C: ≥10). The impacts of alcohol and smoking cessation on field carcinogenesis were assessed.<br>
Findings Among 331 enrolled patients, the median follow-up was 120 months (range: 1.3–176.9). The cumulative incidences of mESCC were 10.4%, 27.2%, and 61.8% in grades A, B, and C, respectively. An increment of 1 unit (22 g ethanol) of alcohol consumption and higher LVL grade independently increased the risk for mESCC. Alcohol or smoking cessation reduced this risk (hazard ratio [HR] 0.52, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.31–0.88; HR 0.44, 95% CI: 0.25–0.78, respectively), and combined cessation had the greatest impact (HR 0.21, 95% CI: 0.07–0.65). Complete cessation, rather than partial reduction, was necessary to achieve meaningful risk reduction.<br>
Interpretation Alcohol and tobacco exposure, and a large number of LVL, are major determinants of mESCC. Complete cessation markedly reduces risk, underscoring the importance of behavioural interventions for secondary prevention of field carcinogenesis after ER.

kn-title=MMP-3 cleavage of Lamin A induces pro-migratory nuclear deformity, nucleophagy, and their autophagic secretion with extracellular vesicles in metastatic cancer
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) are a family of zinc-dependent proteinases that cleave a plethora of substrates, including components of the extracellular matrix and cell-surface-associated proteins, as well as intracellular targets. MMPs have also been found in extracellular vesicles (EVs), such as exosomes. MMP-3 promotes tumor growth, epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition, genome instability, migration, invasion, and metastasis of cancer cells, and nuclear MMP-3 controls gene transcription. Intranuclear proteolysis by MMPs may significantly alter cancer progression. However, the nuclear substrates of MMP-3 have not been well investigated. In this study, we performed proteomic analyses to identify the nuclear substrates and EV proteins regulated by MMP-3. While rabidly metastatic colon cancer (LuM1) three-dimensionally cultured tumoroids secreted EVs containing 30 protein types, including Lamin A (LMNA), MMP-3, fibronectin (FN1), HSPA8 (Hsc70), β-actin (ACTB), and vimentin (VIM), CRISPR/Cas9-based knockout of MMP-3 reduced the secretion of these proteins in EVs. Notably, EV-bound cleaved Lamin secretion was confirmed by immunoelectron microscopy. Also, MMP-3 formed proteolytic dimers via its hemopexin-like repeat domains in nuclei. Many nuclear MMP-3-binding proteins, including Lamin A/C, histones, topoisomerases, and hnRNPs, were screened by co-immunoprecipitation followed by proteomics. Proteolytic MMP-3 overexpression generated a C-terminal 30-kDa fragment of Lamin A, whose cleavage site was defined via structural analysis. MMP-3 digestion of Lamin A induced nuclear deformity (atypia) required for cell migration in confined space. The cleaved Lamin A and MMP-3 were transported with autophagosomes (LC3B+), nucleophagosomes, and amphisomes (CD63 + LC3B+) and co-secreted with EVs. Proteolytic MMP-3 also induced nuclear speckles of Lamin A, suggesting their roles in transcription and splicing. Clinical analysis revealed that high expressions of MMP3 and LMNA were significantly seen in head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSC) than in the other 16 cancer types, and predicted poor prognosis of patients suffering from HNSC, pancreatic, rectum and lung adenocarcinomas at specific stages. Immunohistochemistry revealed that nuclear MMP-3 and cleaved Lamin were significantly higher expressed in stage IV metastatic HNSC cases than in stage I non-metastatic cases. Taken together, MMP3-cleavage of Lamin A induces nuclear deformity, nucleophagy, and their autophagic co-secretion with EVs in metastatic cancer. Also, high expression of MMP-3 and secretion of Lamin A can predict poor prognosis in multiple cancer types at specific stages.

kn-title=Association between the incidence of infusion-related reactions by obinutuzumab and the dose of corticosteroid as premedication: a multicenter retrospective cohort study
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Background Premedication with corticosteroids is recommended for prophylaxis against infusion-related reactions (IRRs) caused by obinutuzumab despite a lack of solid evidence regarding the dose of corticosteroids.<br>
Methods The incidence rates of IRR in the high-dose and low-dose corticosteroid groups were investigated and compared using Student’s t-test.Univariable and multivariable logistic regression analyses were performed on patients to explore the risk of developing IRRs with obinutuzumab.<br>
Results The incidence of IRRs in the high-dose and low-dose corticosteroid groups at the initial administration of obinutuzumab was 27.0% (41/152) and 48.4% (31/64), respectively, indicating that the high-dose group had a lower incidence of IRRs (p = 0.002). The incidence of IRRs at the initial administration of obinutuzumab was significantly associated with the administration of first-generation histamine 1 receptor antagonist (OR = 3.31, 95% CI: 1.16–9.47; reference: second-generation histamine 1 receptor antagonist), hydrocortisone (OR = 7.21, 95% CI: 1.57–33.15; reference: dexamethasone), and methylprednisolone (OR = 3.99, 95% CI :1.13–14.10; reference: dexamethasone), although no association was found with the lower dose of corticosteroids.<br>
Conclusions Although no association was found between corticosteroid dosage and IRR when considering multiple factors, dexamethasone may be a better option than hydrocortisone or methylprednisolone for preventing IRR. Additionally, second-generation H1-receptor antagonists may be a better option than first-generation drugs. Certain combinations of premedications may influence infusion reaction incidence.

kn-title=Real-world comparative effectiveness of sarilumab versus Janus kinase inhibitors as monotherapy in rheumatoid arthritis
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Background: Sarilumab (SAR), an interleukin-6 receptor inhibitor (IL-6Ri), and Janus kinase inhibitors (JAKi) are approved options for rheumatoid arthritis (RA) when methotrexate (MTX) cannot be used. Real-world evidence for MTX-free monotherapy remains limited.<br>
Methods: We conducted a multicenter retrospective cohort study of RA patients receiving SAR or JAKi as MTX-free monotherapy. To reduce confounding, 1:1 propensity score matching was performed in the overall cohort (n = 252, 126 per group) and separately within treatment-line strata: Phase 2 first-line biologic/targeted synthetic disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs (b/tsDMARDs: 45 per group), Phase 3 second-line b/tsDMARDs (53 per group), and Phase 3 ≥ third-line b/tsDMARDs (47 per group). Outcomes over 12 months included drug retention, change in Clinical Disease Activity Index (CDAI), glucocorticoid (GC) tapering and discontinuation, low disease activity (LDA, CDAI ≤ 10), and safety profiles. Predictors of LDA were evaluated with logistic regression. This multicenter real-world.<br>
Results: Across matched strata by prior b/tsDMARDs, retention and CDAI change did not differ significantly between SAR and JAKi through 12 months. When classified by cause, adverse events (AEs)-related discontinuation was higher with JAKi, yielding lower AE-specific retention. Both groups demonstrated GC sparing overtime, with a greater increase in GC discontinuation for SAR than for JAKi in Phase 2. Baseline predictors of achieving LDA at 12 months included higher C-reactive protein (CRP) and platelet count (Plt) in both groups, with additional associations of younger age and lower hemoglobin (Hb) in the SAR. In safety analyses, overall AEs were less frequent with SAR than with JAKi, driven by lower risks of infection including herpes zoster, while other categories were similarly infrequent.<br>
Conclusion: SAR and JAKi showed no statistically significant differences in 12-month retention or disease control in MTX-free monotherapy settings. Higher CRP and Plt with lower Hb, particularly in younger patients, identified better response to SAR and support biomarker guided selection between IL-6Ri and JAKi. In Phase 2, GC discontinuation with SAR suggests a practical strategy to reduce AEs while maintaining efficacy. Prospective studies should validate these findings and define actionable thresholds.

en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Synergistic effects of a multifunctional acrylate and a long-chain silane coupling agent were investigated in an organic–inorganic nanohybrid material. We tested the bond strength of nanohybrid composites treated with experimental primers containing silane coupling agents—3-methacryloxypropyl trimethoxysilane (γ-MPTS) or 8-methacryloxyoctyl trimethoxysilane (8-MOTS)—with or without multifunctional acrylates—trimethylolpropane triacrylate (A-TMPT) or dipentaerythritol hexaacrylate (A-DPH). Shear bond strength was evaluated after 24 h of water storage at 37 °C. Untreated control and silane-only groups exhibited low shear bond strengths (e.g., control: 2.4 ± 2.0 MPa) and failed exclusively at the adhesive interface. While addition of A-TMPT did not significantly improve bond strength, addition of A-DPH produced significantly higher shear bond strengths. Highest strength was achieved with 30% 8-MOTS and A-DPH (22.4 ± 6.1 MPa), followed by 20% γ-MPTS and A-DPH (19.0 ± 7.0 MPa), and A-DPH groups produced cohesive failures. Regardless of the silane used (γ-MPTS or 8-MOTS), incorporating A-DPH in the primer consistently yielded superior bond strengths, indicating a promising strategy for improved adhesion for such nanohybrid systems. These findings provide new insights into optimizing resin–filler interfacial interactions and may contribute to the development of restorative materials with improved long-term clinical durability.

kn-title=Dental infection is associated with early relapse in patients with ANCA-associated vasculitis
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Objectives Anti-neutrophil cytoplasmic antibody-associated vasculitis (AAV) is a systemic autoimmune disease where infections can trigger relapses. Dental infections, being common and associated with systemic inflammation, may play a role in AAV relapse, though their impact remains unclear. We aimed to evaluate the association between severe dental infections and early relapse in patients with AAV.<br>
Methods This retrospective cohort study included patients newly diagnosed with AAV between January 2011 and July 2022. Patients with severe dental infections requiring tooth extraction were placed in the dental infection group, while the remaining patients were assigned to the control group. The primary outcome was defined as either vasculitis relapse or all-cause mortality within 1 year of treatment initiation. Adjusted HRs (aHRs) and 95% CIs were estimated using Cox proportional hazards models.<br>
Results A total of 93 patients were enrolled with a median age of 74 years. 41 patients (44.1%) had severe dental infections in this cohort. Over the 1-year follow-up period, 13 patients experienced a relapse and two died, resulting in a composite event rate of 20.9 per 100 person-years. Dental infection was independently associated with the composite outcome (aHR, 3.78 (95% CI 1.13 to 12.66); p=0.031). Exploratory analysis indicated that composite outcome rates were similar regardless of tooth extraction among patients with dental infections.<br>
Conclusions Severe dental infections were associated with increased risk of early relapse or mortality in AAV. These findings highlight the importance of early dental evaluation in AAV management.

kn-title=Prescription Support Practice for Pharmacy Students: Pre-Post Educational Intervention Study
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Background: In the field of team-based care, pharmacists are vital for optimizing medication therapy. However, many medical professionals lack the opportunity to learn how to propose prescription changes with precision.<br>
Objective: This study aimed to address this knowledge gap by developing and assessing a new educational program for pharmacy students focused on prescription support and interprofessional collaboration.<br>
Methods: We recruited 191 fifth-year pharmaceutical students during the 2022‐2024 academic years. The program featured a 7-day intensive curriculum that included learning how to assist with prescriptions, analyzing clinical data, and engaging in role-playing exercises. A web-based questionnaire and a paper test were used to evaluate students’ awareness and knowledge both before and after the program. Statistical analyses were performed to verify the significance of changes; we utilized the Wilcoxon signed-rank test for the ordinal data derived from the specific behavioral objectives and 2-tailed paired t tests for the interval data from the knowledge tests. The magnitude of change was quantified using r for Wilcoxon tests and Cohen dz for 2-tailed t tests, with 95% CI calculated to ensure the stability and reliability of the observed results.<br>
Results: Analysis of the primary outcome specific behavioral objectives revealed statistically significant effects across all items (Wilcoxon signed-rank test; P<.001). Effect sizes (r=0.505‐0.835) ranged from moderate to large, with particularly large effects observed in identifying contents issue (r=0.835, 95% CI 0.126-0.330; P<.001). Knowledge test scores showed significant improvement in the following 3 subjects: pharmacology (r=−0.504, 95% CI –0.215 to 0.127; P<.001), organic chemistry (r=0.254, 95% CI –0.148 to –0.193; P=.004), and communication (r=0.221, 95% CI –0.151 to –0.190; P=.01). No significant changes were observed in pathology or pharmacokinetics.<br>
Conclusions: This program provides strong evidence that practical, hands-on learning with hospital pharmacists helps improve pharmacy students’ professional skills and optimize pharmaceutical therapies in interprofessional care. By teaching pharmacists to effectively propose prescription changes, the program equips them to become integral members of interprofessional care, ultimately leading to optimized pharmaceutical care for patients.

kn-title=Investigation of the cefazolin inoculum effect in blood culture-isolated methicillin-susceptible Staphylococcus aureus strains: A Japanese multicenter study
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Background: Cefazolin inoculum effect (CInE) is a microbiological phenomenon where the MIC of cefazolin against methicillin-susceptible Staphylococcus aureus (MSSA) strains increases with higher bacterial volumes.<br>
Method: We retrospectively investigated the prevalence and characteristics of the CInE among MSSA strains isolated from blood cultures at three Japanese hospitals. The collected isolates were screened for blaZ using PCR, and the cefazolin minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) for the blaZ-positive MSSA isolates was measured at standard and high inoculum volumes. CInE-positive MSSA strains were defined as those with a cefazolin MIC ≥16 μg/mL at 107 CFU/mL and ≤8 μg/mL at 105 CFU/mL. In these blaZ-positive strains, we performed blaZ typing and tested a modified nitrocefin-based rapid examination to detect the CInE.<br>
Results: We collected 329 MSSA strains isolated from blood cultures. Of these, 96 (29.2%) were positive for the blaZ gene, with the following genotypes: type A (15, 15.6%), type B (3, 3.1%), type C (77, 80.2%), type D (0, 0.0%), and non-type (1, 1.0%). Among 96 blaZ-positive MSSA isolates, 11 exhibited the CInE, all of which harbored blaZ type A. The rapid nitrocefin test detected CInE positivity with high sensitivity (100%), specificity (94.1%), and diagnostic accuracy (94.8%).<br>
Conclusion: This study highlighted the low prevalence of CInE-presenting MSSA isolates in Japan. When the cefazolin MIC is ≥1 μg/mL or the penicillin G MIC is ≥0.25 μg/mL, the rapid nitrocefin test may be useful for considering the CInE in patients with high bacterial volume MSSA infections.

kn-title=Discovery of Thermal Sensitizers That Inhibit Heat-Induced SAFB Granule Formation
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Hyperthermia is a minimally invasive cancer treatment based on heat stress-induced apoptosis. Its therapeutic efficacy, however, is often limited by tumor heterogeneity and acquired thermotolerance. Therefore, combination strategies involving hyperthermia and chemotherapy have been developed to enhance the therapeutic efficacy. Previously, we showed that SB366791 enhanced heat-induced apoptosis by inhibiting heat stress-induced scaffold attachment factor B (SAFB) granule formation, although its proapoptotic activity was insufficient. Therefore, we screened to identify novel compounds that enhance heat-induced apoptosis by suppressing SAFB granule formation. We identified four hit compounds that inhibited SAFB granule formation, all exhibiting thermal enhancement ratios > 1.0─that significantly enhanced heat-induced apoptosis efficiency. Additionally, the tumor volume in mice treated with a combination of Z19024498 and hyperthermia was significantly smaller than that in mice treated with hyperthermia or Z19024498. These results indicate that the identified compounds, specifically Z19024498, have potential as thermal sensitizers for hyperthermia therapy.

kn-title=Local immune response induced by intra-fin antigen injection in Japanese medaka (Oryzias latipes) is a useful model for immunological studies
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Teleost fishes play a pivotal role in advancing our understanding of immune system evolution because they retain the ancient characteristics of vertebrate immunity, encompassing both innate and adaptive immune systems. Among these, innate immunity plays a critical role in fish as the first line of defense, coordinating rapid responses to pathogen infections. However, the lack of fish-specific immunological methodologies has limited progress in elucidating fish immune mechanisms. To better understand how the innate immune response develops and resolves in fish, detailed observation and integrative analysis of leukocytes at multiple time points is necessary. In the present study, an intra-fin injection method for observing local immune responses in Japanese medaka (Oryzias latipes) was tested and optimized to analyze the progression of zymosan-induced innate immune responses. Zymosan-injected medaka showed a rapid immune response characterized by leukocyte recruitment and phagocytosis. Using TG(FmpxP:mCherry) transgenic medaka with mCherry fluorescence driven by myeloperoxidase (mpx) promoter, granulocyte chemotaxis towards the site of zymosan entry was successfully visualized. The rapid increase in tumor necrosis factor α (tnfa), interleukin-1β (il1b), interleukin-6 (il6), and CXC motif chemokine ligand 8 (cxcl8) expressions in zymosan-injected anal fins provided a molecular basis for the visualized tissue-specific cellular response. Our study underscores the dynamic orchestration of immune components during the innate immune response in Japanese medaka and highlights their potential as a promising model for immunological research.

kn-title=Collagen-binding C-type natriuretic peptide enhances chondrogenesis and osteogenesis
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=C-type natriuretic peptide (CNP) is known to promote chondrocyte proliferation and bone formation; however, CNP’s extremely short half-life necessitates continuous intravascular administration to achieve bone-lengthening effects. Vosoritide, a CNP analog designed for resistance to neutral endopeptidase, allows for once-daily administration. Nonetheless, it distributes systemically rather than localizing to target tissues, which may result in adverse effects such as hypotension. To enhance local drug delivery and therapeutic efficacy, we developed a potentially novel synthetic protein by fusing a collagen-binding domain (CBD) to CNP, termed CBD-CNP. This fusion protein exhibited stability under heat conditions and retained the collagen-binding ability and bioactivity as CNP. CBD-CNP localized to articular cartilage in fetal murine tibiae and promoted bone elongation. Spatial transcriptomic analysis revealed that the upregulation of chondromodulin expression may contribute to its therapeutic effects. Treatment of CBD-CNP mixed with collagen powder to a fracture site of a mouse model increased bone mineral content and bone volume compared with CNP-22. Intraarticular injection of CBD-CNP to a mouse model of knee osteoarthritis suppressed subchondral bone thickening. By addressing the limitations of CNP’s rapid degeneration, CBD-CNP leverages its collagen-binding capacity to achieve targeted, sustained delivery in collagen-rich tissues, offering a promising strategy for enhancing chondrogenesis and osteogenesis.

kn-title=Targeting the Gut in Sepsis: Therapeutic Potential of Medical Gases
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Sepsis is a life-threatening condition characterized by a dysregulated host response to infection, often resulting in multiorgan dysfunction. Among affected systems, the gastrointestinal tract plays a central role in sepsis progression by promoting systemic inflammation through impaired barrier function, immune imbalance, and microbiome alterations. Recent research has identified selected medical gases and gasotransmitters as promising therapeutic candidates for preserving gut integrity in sepsis. In particular, hydrogen, carbon monoxide, and hydrogen sulfide exhibit antioxidative, anti-inflammatory, and cytoprotective properties. These gases act through defined molecular pathways, including activation of Nrf2, inhibition of NF-κB, and preservation of tight junction integrity, thereby supporting intestinal barrier function. In addition, they influence immune cell phenotypes and autophagy, with indirect effects on the gut microbiome. Although most supporting evidence derives from preclinical models, translational findings and emerging safety data highlight the potential of gut-targeted gas-based strategies. This review summarizes current mechanistic and translational evidence for gut-protective medical gases in sepsis and discusses their integration into future organ-specific and mechanism-based therapeutic approaches.

kn-title=Real-world six-month outcomes after switching from aflibercept 2 mg to aflibercept 8 mg for neovascular age-related macular degeneration
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Purpose To investigate 6-month outcomes in eyes with neovascular age-related macular degeneration (nAMD) switched from intravitreal aflibercept 2 mg to intravitreal aflibercept 8 mg.<br>
Study design Retrospective observational study.<br>
Methods We reviewed records of consecutive nAMD eyes switched from aflibercept 2 mg to 8 mg. In eyes continuing aflibercept 8 mg, best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA), treatment intervals, and anatomical/exudative parameters were evaluated at 6 months. In eyes that could not continue, reasons for discontinuation were examined.<br>
Results Forty-four eyes from 44 patients were included. At 6 months, 35 eyes (79.5%) continued and 9 (20.5%) discontinued aflibercept 8 mg. Discontinuing eyes had significantly shorter pre-switch treatment intervals and more frequent prior therapies than continuing eyes. In the continuation group, BCVA remained stable (median 0.05 to 0.00 logMAR, P = 0.351), while the treatment interval was significantly extended (median 7.0 to 9.0 weeks, P < 0.001). Central retinal thickness and pigment epithelial detachment height decreased significantly (P = 0.035 and P = 0.021, respectively). The proportion of eyes with subretinal fluid significantly decreased from 74.3 to 37.1% (P = 0.003). Of the discontinuations, 4 were due to worsening exudation and 5 to inability to extend to ≥8 weeks as required by labeling. No intraocular inflammation or serious adverse events occurred.<br>
Conclusions Switching to aflibercept 8 mg achieved anatomical improvements and longer treatment intervals in ~80% of nAMD cases, suggesting it may be a useful alternative to aflibercept 2 mg. However, continuation may be difficult in refractory cases requiring frequent injections before switching.

kn-title=Sex differences in the progression of cardiovascular–kidney–metabolic syndrome
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Aims Cardiovascular–kidney–metabolic (CKM) syndrome is a novel disease concept; however, sex differences in its progression remain uncertain. This study aimed to quantify the risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD) events across CKM stages and to explore sex differences in this association.<br>
Methods and results We included 1 332 436 individuals (581 423 males and 751 013 females) from the DeSC database between 2014 and 2023 who had no prior CVD (i.e. CKM Stage 4). CKM stages were categorized as follows: Stage 0 (no CKM risk factors); Stage 1 (excess or dysfunctional adiposity); Stage 2 [metabolic risk factors and chronic kidney diseases (CKD)], and Stage 3 (subclinical CVD). We used Cox models to examine the association of CKM stages with the risk of CVD events (newly developed CKM Stage 4), including myocardial infarction, stroke, heart failure, atrial fibrillation, and peripheral artery disease. The progression from CKM Stages 0 to 3 showed a dose-dependent increase in adjusted hazard ratios (HR) for developing CVD events, with the highest risk at Stage 3 [1.85 (95% CI: 1.80–1.90)]. A similar pattern was observed in both males and females. However, the magnitude of associations for CKM stages 1–3 differed between the sexes: HR by Stage 1, 1.12 (1.04–1.21) vs. 1.12 (1.07–1.16); by Stage 2, 1.78 (1.69–1.88) vs. 1.43 (1.39–1.48); by Stage 3, 1.99 (1.89–2.10) vs. 1.82 (1.76–1.88); and P-for-interaction values were 0.87, < 0.001, and 0.005, respectively.<br>
Conclusion In this large nationwide cohort, CKM stage progression was associated with higher CVD risk in both sexes, with modest sex-specific differences. These findings highlight the value of CKM staging for early risk assessment, regardless of sex.

kn-title=TRPV2 in muscle satellite cells is crucial for skeletal muscle remodelling
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Skeletal muscle remodelling relies on muscle stem cells (MuSCs) for regeneration after injury and hypertrophy in response to mechanical loading. However, the mechanisms that trigger MuSC activation and proliferation remain unclear. Transient receptor potential vanilloid 2 (TRPV2) ion channels respond to insulin-like growth factor-1 and mechanical stimuli to regulate the biological characteristics of various cells. Using a temporally inducible MuSC-specific conditional knockout (cKO) mouse, we show that TRPV2 regulates MuSC function and is essential for muscle remodelling. In cultured myofibre, MuSCs express TRPV2 and exhibit Ca2+ responses to the TRPV2 agonists 2-aminoethoxydiphenyl borate and probenecid, which are abolished upon TRPV2 deletion. TRPV2-deficient MuSCs exhibit reduced paired box 7 (Pax7) expression and impaired proliferation, suggesting TRPV2 is a factor that regulates the early stage of MuSC function. Myotube formation in MuSCs was enhanced by overexpression of TRPV2 and suppressed by TRPV2 deficiency, suggesting that TRPV2 is a factor that promotes myogenesis. Muscle-administered cardiotoxin promoted muscle regeneration and resulted in the appearance of numerous Pax7-positive MuSCs between myofibres. MuSC-specific TRPV2 cKO mice exhibit substantially impaired muscle regeneration after cardiotoxin-induced injury, drastically reducing Pax7-positive MuSCs between myofibres. In floxed mice, mechanical loading via synergist ablation induces hypertrophy and greatly increases the number of myonuclei per myofibre. In contrast, MuSC-specific TRPV2 cKO mice show no changes in myofibre thickness or nuclear number, either at baseline or after mechanical loading. Mechanical loading of floxed mice increased TRPV2+/Pax7+ double-positive MuSCs, but MuSC-specific TRPV2 cKO mice showed no change. Additionally, MuSCs exhibit Ca2+ responses to hypo-osmotic stimuli, which are suppressed by TRPV2 inhibitors and TRPV2 deletion, suggesting that MuSCs exhibit TRPV2-dependent mechanical responses. These results establish TRPV2 as a critical regulator of MuSC-mediated muscle remodelling, an important finding that may lead to therapeutic strategies for muscle repair and adaptation.

kn-title=The impact of liver transection depth on surgical difficulty in robotic versus laparoscopic limited liver resection (TAKUMI-5)
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Purpose Although robotic liver resection (RLR) has gained popularity worldwide, limited liver resection remains the mainstay of RLR. This study aimed to investigate the effect of parameters, including liver transection depth (LTD), on surgical difficulty in limited RLR compared with limited laparoscopic liver resection (LLR).<br>
Methods This retrospective study included 105 patients who underwent limited RLR (n = 56) or LLR (n = 49) at our institution between January 2018 and December 2024. After comparing outcomes of RLR and LLR, multivariate analyses were performed to examine effect of LTD on surgical difficulty (defined as prolonged operative time). Moreover, outcomes stratified by LTD cut-off values were compared between the groups.<br>
Results Median LTD was similar between groups (RLR vs. LLR: 2.6 vs. 2.6 cm, P = 0.77). LTD was significantly correlated with operative time for both procedures (RLR, R² = 0.07, P = 0.042; LLR, R² = 0.08, P = 0.046). Multivariate analyses demonstrated that LLR (odds ratio, 6.9; P < 0.001) and LTD (odds ratio, 2.0; P = 0.004) were significant risk factors of surgical difficulty. Among patients with deeper LTD (> 2.5 cm), the RLR group had significantly shorter operative time (145 vs. 231 min, P < 0.001), less blood loss (nil vs. 100 mL, P = 0.006), and a higher rate of textbook outcomes (76.7% vs. 42.3%, P = 0.01).<br>
Conclusion This study investigated impact of LTD on surgical outcomes in patients who underwent limited RLR compared to those who underwent limited LLR. LTD may be a useful parameter for estimating surgical difficulty in limited RLR. Moreover, robotic surgery may be favorable for deeper and limited liver resections.

kn-title=D3 lymph node dissection in colon cancer patients aged 90 years and over: Is it justified? A multi‐institutional retrospective study
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Aim: The oncological benefit of D3 lymph node dissection (D3 LND) for colon cancer in patients aged ≥90 years remains unclear. This study aimed to evaluate the impact of D3 LND on outcomes in this specific, vulnerable population.<br>
Method: This retrospective cohort study evaluated 166 patients aged ≥90 years with pathological Stages II–III colon cancer undergoing non-D3 or D3 LND from a multicentre database (2011–2022). Postoperative complications, overall survival and cancer-specific survival were compared between LND groups using propensity score-weighted analyses.<br>
Results: D3 LND group had significantly more females and laparoscopic procedures. Operation time was longer, and blood loss was lower in the D3 LND group. Postoperative complications and severe complications were significantly fewer, and postoperative hospital stay was shorter in the D3 LND group. The number of harvested lymph nodes and distal margin was significantly higher in the D3 group. While unadjusted analysis showed better overall survival with D3 LND (p < 0.001), adjusted cancer-specific survival showed no significant difference (p = 0.10). Adjusted mortality risk was significantly higher in the non-D3 group (p = 0.001).<br>
Conclusion: In nonagenarian colon cancer patients, D3 LND is safe and feasible without increasing complications, but lacks survival benefit. Careful consideration is warranted, and high-quality D2 LND must be consistently ensured when limited surgery is chosen.

kn-title=Severe Anemia Caused by a Colorectal Lipoma With Central Erosions: A Case Report
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Colorectal lipomas are benign tumors that are often asymptomatic and discovered incidentally. In most cases, they can be managed conservatively with observation. We report the case of a man in his 70s with a colorectal lipoma located in the cecum. An investigation into his severe anemia led to the suspicion that the cecal lipoma was the underlying cause. An ileocecal resection was performed. Erosions were observed at the center of the lipoma. Although small colorectal lipomas are generally asymptomatic and rarely cause anemia, periodic endoscopic examinations are recommended. These lesions should be considered in the differential diagnosis of lower gastrointestinal bleeding.

kn-title=Overexpression of Escherichia coli yaiX Confers Multidrug Resistance and Enhances Virulence in the Silkworm Infection Model
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=The emergence of bacteria with both antimicrobial resistance and high virulence has become a global health concern, underscoring the urgent need to elucidate the molecular basis underlying these traits. Here, we employed the silkworm (Bombyx mori) infection model, which is suitable for high-throughput screening, together with an Escherichia coli library containing plasmid clones of all genes from strain W3110, to identify genes whose overexpression enhances virulence. We found that overexpression of the uncharacterized protein YaiX promoted bacterial proliferation in silkworms and increased host lethality. Compared with the empty-vector control, the YaiX-overexpressing strain exhibited resistance to multiple antimicrobial agents with diverse mechanisms of action, including β-lactams, tetracyclines, fluoroquinolones, aminoglycosides, cationic surfactants, and hydrogen peroxide. Sequence analysis revealed that amino acids 18–52 of YaiX contain a transferase hexapeptide domain predicted to form a left-handed parallel β-helix. Overexpression of YaiX mutants lacking regions outside this domain conferred ampicillin resistance, whereas deletion of the hexapeptide domain abolished this phenotype. RNA sequencing and GO enrichment analyses further indicated that YaiX overexpression altered the expression of genes encoding RNA-binding proteins and porins. These findings suggest that YaiX overexpression, through its hexapeptide domain, modulates gene expression and contributes to both multidrug resistance and enhanced virulence in E. coli.

kn-title=Surgical outcomes and patient selection in nonagenarians with colon cancer: a comparative multi-institutional study of laparoscopic and open approaches
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Purpose The appropriate surgical approach for colon cancer (CC) in nonagenarian patients remains a subject of clinical debate. This study aimed to compare the short-term outcomes of laparoscopic (Lap) versus open (Open) surgery in patients aged ≥ 90 years with resectable colon cancer.<br>
Methods This multi-institutional retrospective cohort study included oldest-old patientswith pathological Stage II/III CC who underwent elective surgery at 15 hospitals between 2011 and 2022. Patients with rectal cancer, Stage 0/I/IV disease, or emergency surgery were excluded. To address selection bias, inverse-probability-weighted regression adjustment and stabilized inverse probability of treatment weighting (sIPTW) were applied. The primary outcome was postoperative complications; secondary outcomes included overall survival (OS).<br>
Results Median age was 92 years in both groups. Before adjustment, the Lap group had a higher proportion of female patients (p = 0.038) and lower ASA scores (p = 0.01). Laparoscopic surgery was associated with a significantly longer operative time (220 vs. 171 min, p = 0.046) but less intraoperative blood loss (10 vs. 78 mL, p < 0.01). Postoperative complication rates were comparable (Lap: 31.8%, Open: 33.8%), while the Lap group had a significantly shorter hospital stay (13 vs. 17 days, p < 0.01). D3 lymph node dissection was more frequently performed in the Lap group (p < 0.01). After sIPTW, overall survival did not differ significantly between groups (p = 0.61).<br>
Conclusion Both laparoscopic and open surgery are feasible options for selected nonagenarians with colon cancer. Laparoscopic surgery may offer benefits in terms of reduced blood loss and shorter hospitalization, despite longer operative times. Careful patient selection considering frailty and comorbidities is essential in determining the most appropriate surgical approach.

kn-title=Early C-reactive protein as a predictive biomarker for postoperative complications following robot-assisted surgery for rectal cancer
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=This retrospective cohort study aimed to assess the predictive value of early postoperative C-reactive protein (CRP) levels for complications following robot-assisted rectal surgery (RARS) for rectal cancer. We analyzed data from 117 consecutive patients who underwent elective RARS at Okayama University Hospital between September 2020 and January 2025. Serum CRP levels were routinely measured preoperatively and on postoperative days (POD) 1 and 4. The primary outcome was the occurrence of any postoperative complication within 30 days, classified according to the Clavien–Dindo grading system. Postoperative complications were observed in 26 patients, representing 22.2% of the cohort. Univariate analysis revealed that several factors were significantly associated with complications, including older age, higher ASA score, neoadjuvant therapy, stoma creation, prolonged operative time, and elevated CRP levels on POD1 and POD4. Notably, multivariate logistic regression analysis identified POD1 CRP as a robust independent predictor of overall postoperative complications (adjusted odds ratio 0.77, 95% confidence interval (CI) [0.63–0.93], p < 0.01). In the ROC analysis, the AUC was 0.735 (bootstrap bias-corrected 95% CI 0.544–0.848). The optimal cutoff value of POD1 CRP was 5.63 mg/dl, at which Youden’s index, yielding a sensitivity of 0.615 and specificity of 0.868. In conclusion, early postoperative measurement of CRP on POD1 serves as a valuable and independent biomarker for predicting complications following RARS for rectal cancer. Incorporating POD1 CRP into postoperative surveillance may facilitate the early identification of high-risk patients, thereby facilitating timely interventions and ultimately improving surgical outcomes in this patient population.

kn-title=Comparative efficacy of immune checkpoint inhibitor combination therapies by metastatic site in metastatic renal cell carcinoma
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Few studies have investigated the efficacy of immuno-oncology (IO) combinations at different metastatic sites in renal cell carcinoma (RCC). We evaluated the differential efficacy of IO–IO and IO–tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) combinations by metastatic site in metastatic RCC (mRCC). This retrospective multicenter study by the JK-FOOT Study Group included 579 patients with intermediate- or poor-risk mRCC (per International Metastatic RCC Database Consortium criteria) treated with first-line IO combinations between September 2018 and December 2024. Metastatic sites were lymph nodes, lungs, bones, liver, brain, and others. The primary endpoints were progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS); the secondary endpoint was objective response rate. Efficacy was compared between IO–IO and IO–TKI for each site. For lymph node (n = 36), lung (n = 132), or brain (n = 16) metastases, OS or PFS was not significantly different between IO–IO and IO–TKI. In bone metastases (n = 80), OS tended to favor IO–TKI (P = 0.053). In liver metastases (n = 22), OS was significantly longer with IO–TKI (P = 0.011). IO–TKI may be a more appropriate first-line option than IO–IO for mRCC with bone or liver metastases, while efficacy is similar for other sites.

en-subtitle=

en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Cesarean wound healing is influenced by surgeon experience, suture type, and technique. This study utilized a simulation model to quantify these effects. Obstetricians–gynecologists and junior residents performed two-layer continuous suturing on uterine models, forming eight groups based on experience level (expert, novice), suture type (conventional, barbed), and technique (Albert–Lembert, layer-to-layer). The ideal wound condition was defined as that achieved by an expert using barbed sutures and the layer-to-layer technique. Wound characteristics were quantified and compared to this ideal. Experts using barbed sutures in Albert–Lembert suturing showed higher wound density but greater deformation and larger endometrial openings (both P < 0.01). Novices using barbed sutures in Albert–Lembert suturing showed similar wound density but significantly greater deformation and opening (both P < 0.01). Novices using conventional sutures in layer-to-layer suturing showed the lowest wound density and longest suturing time (both P < 0.01). Notably, novices using barbed sutures achieved wound characteristics comparable to experts using conventional sutures in Albert–Lembert suturing and results closer to the ideal in layer-to-layer suturing. These findings establish a quantifiable standard for cesarean suturing and suggest that optimizing suture types and techniques may help compensate for differences in surgical expertise.

kn-title=Prevalence and Modifiable Risk Factors of Dementia in People With Down Syndrome: Cross‐Sectional Study of Japan in Collaboration With the Intellectual Diversity for Goodness Research Consortium (INDIGO‐2019)
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Background: People with Down syndrome (DS) have a strong genetic predisposition to Alzheimer's disease (AD). However, the clinical burden and associated risk factors in diverse, non-Western populations remain less understood. This study aimed to investigate the prevalence of dementia in Japanese adults with DS and to identify modifiable clinical factors associated with dementia.<br>
Methods: This cross-sectional multicentre study surveyed 133 adults with DS (mean age 50.1 years) residing in 45 welfare facilities across Japan in 2019. Dementia was diagnosed by a consensus panel of physicians using established criteria (DSM-5, ICD-10, DC-LD) after comprehensive assessments, including the Japanese version of the Dementia Screening Questionnaire for Individuals with Intellectual Disabilities (DSQIID-J). Logistic regression analysis was performed to identify factors independently associated with dementia.<br>
Results: Forty-six participants (34.6%) were diagnosed with dementia. The prevalence rose sharply with age: 0% in their 30s, 30.8% in their 40s, 31.6% in their 50s and 65.5% in their 60s. After adjusting for covariates, older age, female sex, dyslipidaemia and visual impairment were independently associated with dementia.<br>
Conclusions: This study, the largest of its kind in Asia, confirms a high prevalence of dementia in institutionalized Japanese adults with DS. Crucially, this study is the first to identify dyslipidaemia and visual impairment as independent and potentially modifiable risk factors in this population. These findings highlight tangible targets for clinical interventions aimed at mitigating dementia risk in people with DS.

kn-title=Stimulatory and inhibitory G-protein signaling relays drive cAMP accumulation for timely metamorphosis in the chordate Ciona
en-subtitle=

en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Larvae of the ascidian Ciona initiate metamorphosis tens of minutes after adhesion to a substratum via their adhesive organ. The gap between adhesion and metamorphosis initiation is suggested to ensure the rigidity of adhesion, allowing Ciona to maintain settlement after losing locomotive activity through metamorphosis. The mechanism producing the gap is unknown. Here, by combining gene functional analyses, pharmacological analyses, and live imaging, we propose that the gap represents the time required for sufficient cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) accumulation to trigger metamorphosis. Not only the Gs pathway but also the Gi and Gq pathways are involved in the initiation of metamorphosis in the downstream signaling cascade of the neurotransmitter GABA, the known initiator of Ciona metamorphosis. The mutual crosstalk of stimulatory and inhibitory G-proteins functions as the accelerator and brake for cAMP production, ensuring the faithful initiation of metamorphosis at an appropriate time and in the right situation.

kn-title=Preferential sacral fracture sites in fragility fractures of the pelvis type IVb and comparison of internal fixation methods: CT-based morphological mapping and finite element analysis
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Purpose Fragility fractures of the pelvis (FFP) classified as Rommens-Hoffman type IVb are associated with spinopelvic dissociation and are generally considered to require surgical intervention. This study aimed to clarify the localization patterns of FFP type IVb and compare the biomechanical stability of different internal fixation techniques.<br>
Methods In this retrospective study, morphologic mapping of sacral fracture lines was performed in 36 patients with FFP type IVb. Based on the mapping results, a finite element (FE) model of FFP type IVb was developed to evaluate the biomechanical stability of ilio-sacral screw (ISS) fixation, trans-sacral screw (TSS) fixation, spinopelvic fixation (SPF; On each side, L5 pedicle screw was connected to two iliac screws with a rod, and the bilateral constructs were linked using a cross-connector.), and bilateral triangular fixation (one TSS at S1 combined with SPF mentioned above) using finite element analysis (FEA).<br>
Results Morphologic mapping showed that the sacrum fracture transverse line tended to pass between the S1-2 transverse lines. Although bilateral triangular fixation and SPF provided the highest stability in both U-type and H-type fractures, a TSS for U-type and two TSSs for H-type also demonstrated comparable levels of stability. ISS-based methods showed greater displacements.<br>
Conclusion TSS-based fixation may provide stability comparable to bilateral triangular fixation and SPF in FFP type IVb, with less invasiveness when anatomy permits. Further studies are needed to optimize treatment strategies for this complex injury.

kn-title=Lifestyle Factors and Current Alcohol Consumption Among Japanese Adolescents During the COVID-19 Pandemic: A Nationwide Cross-Sectional Study
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Background: The COVID-19 pandemic may have influenced drinking behaviors in minors by disrupting daily routines and increasing psychosocial stress, although alcohol use among Japanese adolescents has declined in recent years. We aimed to clarify the relationships between current alcohol consumption and lifestyle factors during the COVID-19 pandemic based on a nationwide cross-sectional survey.<br>
Methods: This cross-sectional study analyzed data from the 2021 Lifestyle Survey of Adolescents, a nationwide survey conducted in Japan during the COVID-19 pandemic. A total of 15 549 junior and senior high school students (7645 boys and 7904 girls) were included. Current alcohol consumption was defined as drinking on at least 1 day in the past 30 days. Multivariable logistic regression analyses were used to examine associations between current alcohol consumption and lifestyle factors, including irregular sleep patterns, irregular dietary habits, and increased screen time. Sex-stratified analyses and interaction tests were also performed.<br>
Results: The overall prevalence of current alcohol consumption was 2.1%, with slightly higher rates among boys (2.2%) than girls (2.0%). Current alcohol consumption was significantly associated with irregular sleep patterns (odds ratio [OR] = 1.51; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.17–1.95) and irregular dietary habits (OR = 1.68; 95% CI, 1.18–2.40). An association with increased screen time was also observed (OR = 1.29; 95% CI, 1.00–1.69), particularly among boys. A significant interaction by sex was detected for irregular sleep patterns (p for interaction = 0.013).<br>
Conclusions: Alcohol consumption among Japanese adolescents was associated with irregular sleep and dietary habits and, among boys, with increased screen time. These findings highlight the importance of promoting regular routines and addressing lifestyle-related risks to prevent current alcohol consumption among adolescents during public health crises.

kn-title=Prognostic value of right atrial strain in patients with chronic heart failure
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Aims Right ventricular dysfunction is a well-established prognostic marker in patients with heart failure (HF). However, the prognostic significance of right atrial (RA) function remains unclear. Given its sensitivity to systemic congestion, RA function may provide additional insights into HF disease progression and management. This study aimed to investigate whether RA reservoir function serves as an independent prognostic indicator in patients with chronic HF.<br>
Methods A total of 613 patients with chronic HF and a left ventricular (LV) ejection fraction of less than 50% who underwent echocardiographic assessment at Okayama University Hospital between January 2018 and March 2023 were included (median age: 68 (58–76) years; 69% male). RA reservoir function was quantified using two-dimensional speckle-tracking echocardiography. The primary endpoint was cardiovascular death or HF-related hospitalization. Kaplan–Meier survival analysis was performed to examine the association between RA reservoir function and clinical outcomes.<br>
Results During a median follow-up period of 41 months (range: 12–91 months), 119 patients experienced cardiac events. Compared with event-free patients, those with cardiac events exhibited a significantly larger RA maximum volume index (38 mL/m2 vs. 31 mL/m2, P < 0.001) and a significantly lower RA reservoir longitudinal strain (RASr) (17% vs. 22%, P < 0.001). Kaplan–Meier analysis demonstrated that patients with RASr ≤ 20% had significantly poorer event-free survival than those with RASr > 20%, even without RA volume enlargement (log-rank test, P < 0.001). Multivariate Cox regression analysis identified RASr as an independent predictor of cardiac events (hazard ratio: 0.95, 95% confidence interval: 0.93 to 0.97, P < 0.001).<br>
Conclusions In patients who experienced adverse cardiac events, a reduced RASr and an increased RA maximum volume were observed. Furthermore, a reduced RASr was independently associated with an increased risk of cardiovascular death and HF-related hospitalization in patients with chronic HF and LV dysfunction. These findings indicate that RASr may serve as a valuable prognostic marker for the risk stratification and management of chronic HF.

kn-abstract=Hypomyelinating leukodystrophy 15 (HLD15) results from biallelic pathogenic variants in EPRS1, but exonic deletions have not been reported. We describe a 40-year-old woman with mild intellectual disability, ataxia, dystonia, and MRI showing hypomyelination. Whole-exome sequencing identified a heterozygous missense variant in the prolyl-tRNA synthetase domain of EPRS1 (c.3430 C > G; p.Leu1144Val, NM_004446.3), without second variant. Whole-genome sequencing revealed a heterozygous 220-bp deletion spanning exon 15 (c.1743-30_1932del), and segregation analysis confirmed compound heterozygosity. RT-PCR from lymphoblastoid cells demonstrated exon-15 skipping leading to a frameshift (p.Asn582Serfs*10) and nonsense-mediated decay, leaving predominant expression of the paternally inherited missense allele. These findings support loss-of-function for the deletion and classify c.3430 C > G as likely pathogenic under ACMG/AMP criteria (PM1, PM2, PM3, PP3). This case represents the first exonic deletion reported in EPRS1. The relatively mild, adult-onset phenotype broadens both mutational and clinical spectra of HLD15 and highlights the importance of structural-variant anal

kn-title=Immuno-deficient features of thymoma-associated myasthenia gravis patients with hypogammaglobulinemia: A condition comparable to Good's syndrome
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Good's syndrome (GS) is a rare immunodeficiency disorder associated with thymoma, characterized by hypogammaglobulinemia and recurrent infections; however, its clinical significance in thymoma-associated myasthenia gravis (TAMG) remains unclear. We retrospectively reviewed 30 patients with TAMG admitted to our center between January 2010 and March 2022. We defined GS-like immunodeficiency as serum IgG below the institutional cutoff of 861 mg/dL and a history of two or more infections requiring antimicrobial treatment; 11 patients (36.7%) met this definition. Compared with the remaining patients, the GS-like group had higher incidences of malignancy (45.5% vs. 5.3%, p = 0.016) and autoimmune diseases other than MG (36.4% vs. 5.3%, p = 0.047), lower peripheral lymphocyte counts (median 1100/μL vs. 2200/μL, p = 0.0051), and more frequent airflow obstruction defined by one second to forced vital capacity ratio of less than 70% (60.0% vs. 5.3%, p = 0.0026). Five deaths occurred in the GS-like group, and none in the other; median survival from the first antimicrobial-treated infection was 5.0 years. These findings imply that TAMG patients with GS-like immunodeficiency have a worse prognosis, underscoring the need for close monitoring and timely adjustments of MG management. (189 words).

kn-title=Collagen Signaling via DDR1 Exacerbates Barriers to Macromolecular Drug Delivery in a 3D Model of Pancreatic Cancer Fibrosis
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Fibrosis is a significant barrier to drug delivery in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) and contributes to its dismal prognosis. Pancreatic stellate cells (PSCs) drive fibrosis by excessively secreting extracellular matrix proteins such as collagen I. Collagen I is thought to physically obstruct the delivery of macromolecules, such as albumin, antibodies, and nanomedicines. Apart from its structural role, collagen signals through dedicated cell surface receptors, such as the discoidin domain receptors (DDR) 1/2. However, whether and how collagen signaling contributes to fibrotic barrier generation remains uncharacterized. Here, a 3D culture model of PDAC fibrosis constructed from patient PSCs is used to assess the contribution of DDR1/2-mediated collagen signaling. DDR1/2 inhibition diminishes collagen I expression in PSCs to enhance macromolecular delivery. Moreover, MEK inhibitors exacerbate the fibrotic barrier by up-regulating collagen I, an effect reversed by inhibiting DDR1/2. Through isoform-specific targeting, inhibiting DDR1, but not DDR2, is shown to be effective. Downstream of DDR, the involvement of the PI3K/AKT/mTOR pathway is demonstrated, particularly alternative mTOR complexes involving MEAK7 and GIT1. Altogether, the results show in vitro that DDR1-mediated collagen signaling exacerbates the fibrotic barrier and may be targeted to enhance macromolecular drug delivery in PDAC.

kn-title=Comparison of clinical practices during the transitional and young adult phases between patients with oligoarticular/polyarticular juvenile idiopathic arthritis and those with rheumatoid arthritis in Japan
en-subtitle=

kn-abstract=Background Juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA) is a chronic inflammatory condition that frequently persists into adulthood, posing long-term challenges in disease control and quality of life. However, clinical management during the transitional and young adult phases remains insufficiently characterized, especially in comparison with adult-onset rheumatoid arthritis (RA). This study aimed to compare disease activity, medication use, and treatment practices between patients with oligoarticular/polyarticular JIA and those with RA, focusing on individuals aged 16–30 years.<br>
Methods Data were derived from two nationwide multicenter databases in Japan—NinJa (National Database of Rheumatic Diseases in Japan) for RA and CoNinJa (a pediatric counterpart of NinJa) for JIA. A total of 176 JIA and 152 RA patients, all aged 16–30 years, were analyzed. Clinical parameters, disease activity indices, and medication profiles were compared using the Mann–Whitney U test and Fisher’s exact test.<br>
Results Compared to RA patients, JIA patients demonstrated significantly lower disease activity (median SDAI 0.6 vs. 2.4) and higher remission rates, particularly Boolean remission (70% vs. 44%) (p < 0.001). MTX usage was less frequent in JIA (49% vs. 68%, p < 0.001), whereas biologic use was notably more common (69% vs. 38%, p < 0.001), with 31% involving off-label prescriptions. Among patients in CDAI remission, biologic monotherapy was observed more frequently in JIA (29% vs. 7%, p < 0.001). Discontinuation of MTX was most commonly attributed to disease improvement (58%) or gastrointestinal intolerance (nausea, 29%). Subcutaneous tocilizumab, though unapproved for JIA in Japan, had the lowest discontinuation rate (4%), suggesting favorable tolerability.<br>
Conclusions Despite an overlap in age, patients with JIA and RA exhibit distinct disease characteristics and therapeutic patterns. These differences underscore the need to expand approved treatment options for JIA, promote equitable access to biologics, and strengthen transitional care frameworks. Further research is warranted to explore long-term outcomes, reproductive health considerations, and socioeconomic barriers that influence treatment continuity in young adults with childhood-onset arthritis.

kn-title=Safety and efficacy of Rezūm water vapour energy therapy in BPH patients receiving antithrombotic therapy: A Japanese single‐centre experience
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Objectives: The objective of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of Rezūm water vapour energy therapy (WAVE) in Japanese patients with benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) continuing antithrombotic therapy and to validate the Okayama University Modified Clavien-Dindo classification (OU-mCD) for perioperative hematuria.<br>
Patients and Methods: We retrospectively analysed 80 consecutive patients who underwent WAVE from August 2023 to July 2024, including 37 (46.2%) continuing antithrombotic therapy perioperatively. Hematuria within 30 days was graded using conventional Clavien-Dindo classification and the OU-mCD, a novel classification focusing on intervention necessity. We assessed clinically significant hematuria (Grade ≥ Ib), catheter-free rate, prostate volume reduction and haemoglobin change.<br>
Results: Clinically significant hematuria occurred in 21.6% (8/37) of patients continuing antithrombotic therapy versus 4.7% (2/43) without (p = 0.038). All 10 Grade ≥ Ib cases occurred during hospitalization with the catheter in place and were managed conservatively with continuous bladder irrigation (median 1 day); none required transfusion or surgical reintervention. Only one patient required temporary drug discontinuation. Treatment efficacy did not differ by antithrombotic status: 86.2% achieved PVR < 50 ml with 44% mean prostate volume reduction. Multivariate analysis identified antithrombotic therapy as the sole independent risk factor for Grade ≥ Ib hematuria (OR 5.46, 95% CI 1.06–28.16, p = 0.042).<br>
Conclusion: WAVE can be safely performed with continued antithrombotic therapy. Whereas Grade ≥Ib hematuria occurred in 25% of antiplatelet/anticoagulant users (vs. 5% without), 75% had no significant bleeding, and all complications were managed conservatively without transfusion. The OU-mCD provides precise complication stratification. These findings suggest outpatient procedures may be feasible with appropriate patient selection.

kn-title=Trastuzumab Deruxtecan for ERBB2-Mutant Metastatic Non–Small Cell Lung Cancer With or Without Brain Metastases: A Secondary Analysis of Randomized Clinical Trials
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Importance  Brain metastases reduce overall survival rates of patients with non–small cell lung cancer (NSCLC); patients with epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (ERBB2 [formerly HER2])–mutant NSCLC are more likely to have baseline brain metastases. Trastuzumab deruxtecan (T-DXd) is an approved ERBB2-directed treatment for previously treated unresectable or metastatic ERBB2-mutant NSCLC.<br>
Objective  To assess the clinical effectiveness and safety of T-DXd 5.4 mg/kg and 6.4 mg/kg doses in patients with previously treated ERBB2-mutant metastatic NSCLC with or without untreated or previously treated stable brain metastases.<br>
Design, Setting, and Participants  This post hoc secondary analysis pooled patients from the DESTINY-Lung01 (data cutoff date: December 3, 2021) and DESTINY-Lung02 (data cutoff date: December 23, 2022) clinical trials by T-DXd dose (5.4 mg/kg and 6.4 mg/kg). DESTINY-Lung01 was a multicenter, open-label, 2-cohort, nonrandomized phase 2 study, while DESTINY-Lung02 was a dose-blinded, multicenter, 2-cohort, randomized phase 2 study. Participants had a previously treated ERBB2-mutant metastatic NSCLC with or without untreated or previously treated stable brain metastases at baseline. All statistical analyses were performed from April 2023 to October 2024.<br>
Intervention  Patients received a T-DXd dose of either 5.4 mg/kg or 6.4 mg/kg intravenously every 3 weeks.<br>
Main Outcome and Measure  Systemic and intracranial effectiveness by blinded independent central review using RECIST (Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors) version 1.1, sites of progression, and safety.<br>
Results  This analysis included 102 patients in the T-DXd 5.4-mg/kg dose group (65 females [64%]; median [range] age, 57.5 [37.0-83.0] years and 59.5 [30.0-79.0] years in patients with and without brain metastases, respectively) and 141 patients in the T-DXd 6.4-mg/kg dose group (94 females [67%]; median [range] age, 62.5 [29.0-88.0] years and 59.0 [27.0-83.0] years in patients with and without brain metastases, respectively). In each group, 31% (32 of 102) and 38% (54 of 141) of patients, respectively, had baseline brain metastases and 53% (17 of 32) and 44% (24 of 54), respectively, received prior brain metastasis treatment. In patients with and without brain metastases, systemic confirmed objective response rates (ORRs) were 47% (15 of 32; 95% CI, 29%-65%) and 50% (35 of 70; 95% CI, 38%-62%), respectively, with the T-DXd 5.4-mg/kg dose, and 50% (27 of 54; 95% CI, 36%-64%) and 59% (51 of 87; 95% CI, 48%-69%) with the T-DXd 6.4-mg/kg dose. Median progression-free survival was 7.1 (95% CI, 5.5-9.7) months in the T-DXd 5.4-mg/kg dose group and 7.1 (95% CI, 4.5-9.6) months in the T-DXd 6.4-mg/kg dose group of patients with baseline brain metastases. Among patients with measurable baseline brain metastases, intracranial confirmed ORRs were 50% (7 of 14; 95% CI, 23%-77%) with the T-DXd 5.4-mg/kg dose and 30% (9 of 30; 95% CI, 15%-49%) with the T-DXd 6.4-mg/kg dose. At both doses, the safety profile of T-DXd was generally manageable, regardless of baseline brain metastases, favoring the T-DXd 5.4 mg/kg dose.<br>
Conclusions and Relevance  In this secondary analysis, T-DXd at the approved dose of 5.4 mg/kg showed antitumor activity in patients with previously treated ERBB2-mutant metastatic NSCLC with or without brain metastases. This finding supports T-DXd 5.4 mg/kg use in this population.

kn-title=Final Analysis Results and Patient-Reported Outcomes From DESTINY-Lung02—A Dose-Blinded, Randomized, Phase 2 Study of Trastuzumab Deruxtecan in Patients With HER2-Mutant Metastatic NSCLC
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Introduction: Trastuzumab deruxtecan (T-DXd) demonstrated strong and durable responses in patients with previously treated HER2 (ERBB2) mutant (HER2m) metastatic NSCLC (mNSCLC) in the DESTINY-Lung02 primary analysis (December 23, 2022, data cutoff). This final analysis evaluated T-DXd efficacy and safety after 8 additional months of follow-up, including clinically relevant subgroups and patient-reported outcomes.<br>
Methods: DESTINY-Lung02 was a randomized, dose-blinded, multicenter, phase 2 trial. Patients with previously treated HER2m mNSCLC were randomized 2:1 to receive T-DXd 5.4 or 6.4 mg/kg once every 3 weeks. Primary end point was confirmed objective response rate by blinded independent central review.<br>
Results: As of August 25, 2023, 102 and 50 patients had received T-DXd 5.4 or 6.4 mg/kg, respectively. Median follow-up (Q1–Q3) was 15.8 (8.2–20.7) months and 16.5 (9.4–20.8) months, respectively. Confirmed objective response rate (95% confidence interval) was 50.0% (51/102; 39.9%–60.1%) and 56.0% (28/50; 41.3%–70.0%), respectively. Safety profile was acceptable and generally manageable. Accordingly, median treatment duration (Q1–Q3) was 7.7 (3.7–14.4) months and 8.3 (2.8–13.1) months; drug-related grade 3 or higher treatment-emergent adverse events occurred in 39.6% (40/101) and 60.0% (30/50), with nausea most common (67.3% [68/101], 82.0% [41/50]). Adjudicated drug-related interstitial lung disease occurred in 14.9% (15/101) and 32.0% (16/50), mostly grade 1 or 2 with one grade 5 in each arm. Health-related quality of life was preserved for the duration of T-DXd treatment while sample size was sufficient for analysis, with no adverse effects on health-related quality of life observed at either dose.<br>
Conclusions: T-DXd demonstrated strong and durable responses at both doses, with no clinically significant changes in toxicity. The approved 5.4-mg/kg dose demonstrated a more favorable benefit-risk profile, including lower adjudicated drug-related interstitial lung disease incidence.<br>

kn-title=Claudin-18 expression in gastric type adenocarcinoma and HPV-associated adenocarcinoma of the uterine cervix
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Aims: Claudin-18 (CLDN18) is both a marker for the gastric phenotype and a therapeutic target. However, little is known about its immunoexpression in endocervical adenocarcinomas (ECAs), particularly as detected using the clone 43-14A antibody, or about the gene expression of its isoforms in ECAs.<br>
Methods and results: We examined CLDN18, HIK1083, p16 and Rb expression by immunohistochemistry and high-risk human papillomavirus (HR-HPV) mRNA by in situ hybridization (ISH) in 121 ECAs, including 35 HPV-independent adenocarcinomas (gastric type [GAS], n = 24; non-GAS, n = 11) and 86 HPV-associated ECAs. We also analysed mRNA expression of the CLDN18.1 (lung type) and CLDN18.2 (gastric type) isoforms by quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) in selected cases. CLDN18 positivity was detected in 8/24 (33%) GASs, 0/11 (0%) non-GASs and 2/86 (2%) HPV-associated ECAs, with positivity defined as staining in ≥75% of tumour cells, as in gastric cancer. When a 5% cut-off was used, CLDN18 positivity was detected in 22/24 (92%) GASs, 0/11 (0%) non-GASs and 6/86 (7%) HPV-associated ECAs; CLDN18 expression was thus significantly associated with GAS histology (P < 0.0001). Among the 6 cases of HPV-associated ECAs with CLDN18 expression (ranging from 5% to 80%), the histological patterns included a mix of usual and mucinous features in 4 cases, pure usual type in 1 and villoglandular variant in 1. Otherwise features such as p16 overexpression and the Rb partial loss pattern were consistent with those of HPV-associated ECAs. Six of 22 (27%) CLDN18-positive GASs were also positive for p16, but their other features—such as CLDN18 expression and the Rb preserved pattern—were the same as in p16 negative GASs. Expression of CLDN18.2 mRNA but not CLDN18.1 mRNA was confirmed in both GASs and HPV-associated ECAs.<br>
Conclusions: CLDN18 (43-14A) emerged as a potential diagnostic and therapeutic marker for GAS. A minor subset of HPV-associated ECAs also can be immunoreactive for CLDN18 and express CLDN18.2 mRNA, suggesting divergent gastric phenotypic differentiation. The caution is that GAS and HPV-associated ECAs can share overlapping histological features and similar expression of CLDN18 and p16.

kn-title=The Challenge of Diagnosing Scirrhous Gastric Cancer by Endoscopic Biopsy: A Case Report
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Scirrhous gastric cancer, also known as linitis plastica, is a rare and aggressive subtype of gastric carcinoma that poses significant diagnostic challenges due to its submucosal infiltration and often normal-appearing mucosa. We report a case involving a 30-year-old Japanese woman who presented with a six-month history of epigastric pain and postprandial vomiting. Initial endoscopic examination revealed erythema and mucosal swelling, with limited antral distensibility and resistance during duodenal intubation. Despite 12 mucosal biopsies, histopathological examination revealed no evidence of malignancy. Given the strong clinical and endoscopic suspicion of scirrhous gastric cancer, additional deep sections and immunohistochemical staining were performed. These revealed scattered signet-ring cell carcinoma and poorly differentiated adenocarcinoma, with positive immunostaining for p53 and Ki67. The patient underwent total gastrectomy, and the diagnosis of scirrhous gastric cancer was confirmed on the resected specimen. This case highlights the importance of a high index of clinical suspicion, close collaboration between endoscopists and pathologists, and the utility of ancillary diagnostic tools, such as immunohistochemistry, in identifying subepithelial gastric malignancies that may be missed on conventional biopsy.

kn-title=Clinical and Genetic Landscape of Glioblastoma, IDH-Wildtype With FGFR Gene Family Alterations
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Glioblastoma, isocitrate dehydrogenase wildtype (GBM, IDH-wt), is a highly aggressive brain tumor with a poor prognosis. Alterations in the fibroblast growth factor receptor (FGFR) gene family—such as FGFR::TACC fusions and FGFR1 mutations—have emerged as potential therapeutic targets; however, their clinical and genetic features in GBM, IDH-wt remain unclear. We analyzed 1076 GBM, IDH-wt cases using comprehensive genomic profiling data from the Center for Cancer Genomics and Advanced Therapeutics (C-CAT) database in Japan. FGFR alterations were detected in 8.0% of patients, including FGFR::TACC fusions (3.3%) and FGFR1 mutations (2.9%). The FGFR::TACC fusion-positive group was older at diagnosis and showed higher frequencies of TERT promoter mutation and MDM2 amplification, and lower frequencies of EGFR amplification and TP53 mutation, compared with the fusion-negative group. The FGFR1 mutation-positive group was enriched for ATRX, NF1, and PIK3CA mutations and had significantly fewer TERT promoter and PTEN mutations, compared with the mutation-negative group. No significant differences in overall survival were observed, although both groups tended to have longer median overall survival compared with their respective negative groups. This study represents the largest genomic cohort to date of FGFR alterations in GBM, IDH-wt. FGFR::TACC fusion-positive and FGFR1 mutation-positive GBMs exhibited distinct genetic profiles, highlighting the clinical relevance of molecular subclassification and providing insight for future therapeutic strategies.

kn-abstract=　本稿は,生徒たちが自己や社会にひかれた境界線への理解を深め(境界線の「上に立つ」),境界線を「別様に引き直す」可能性を追究するというコンセプトで作られたカリキュラム開発プロジェクトのうち，平和教育カリキュラムの開発と実践の成果をまとめたものである。他者存在との共生と協調に関わる概念を，「声」というメタファーに集約させて6つ選定した。生徒たちが,世界に引かれた境界線をどのように理解し,どのように自らの生活の中の境界線を捉えなおそうとしたかについて分析した。カリキュラム構成上の意義と課題に関して，学習した概念の生活認識への転用の困難が明らかとなり,カリキュラムの中に概念の省察と吟味を重点的に行う活動を入れることの重要性が明らかとなった。

en-abstract=
kn-abstract=　本研究は，発達支持的教育相談として実施した強み認識授業が，青年の自己の強み選択の難易度に及ぼす影響を探索的に検討したものである。研究１では中国地方の公立中学校423名を対象にオンラインで，研究２では専門学校学生86名，大学生93名を対象に対面で，強み認識授業を実施し，授業後に，自己の強み選択の難易度を測定した。その結果，すべての群の強み選択の難易度の評価は，平野(2019)と比較して「容易である」との回答傾向を示した(Mdn = ７)。また，３群の強み選択の難易度の分布に統計的な有意差は認められなかった(p = .222)。この知見は，本授業が対象者の発達段階や実施形式(オンライン・対面)に関わらず，普遍的に強み特定を支援する機能を持つ可能性を示唆する。最後に，この知見をもとに，学校現場での教育相談の新たな展開を提言した。

kn-abstract=　本研究は，インドの国家教育政策2020および国家カリキュラム・フレームワーク2023に基づいて作成された NCERT 発行の学校教科書（第3～8 学年）を対象に，理科的内容を扱う教科の気候変動に関する内容の取り扱いの現状を分析した。分析では UNESCO による SDGs のための教育と Kagawa & Selby の「理解・緩和・適応」の考え方をもとに観点を設け，記述を抽出・分類した。その結果，初等教育段階の「The World Around Us」では生活世界に根ざした環境配慮の態度と行動の基礎形成が重視され，前期中等教育段階の「Science」では科学的な因果関係や気候変動対策の国際的枠組みが導入されており段階的深化が確認された。一方で，概念導入の遅れ，因果連鎖の不統一，行動変容に至る仕組みの弱さ，学際性の不足や語彙や概念の習得のスパイラルな学習の不足が明らかになった。現行教科書は，体系的かつ実効的な気候変動教育には未だ不十分であり，今後の改善が求められることを指摘した。

kn-abstract=　本研究では腎臓におけるろ過後，ろ液の成分がどのような物質で構成されているのか，その後の腎臓での再吸収過程を含めて，中学生の腎機能の理解を促す教材開発を試みた。まず，市販の果汁を含む飲料水をメンブレンフィルターでろ過し，ろ液が透明になるのは不溶性物質が除去されるためであること，また，ろ液の甘さから水溶性の糖分はろ過されることを確認した。開発した腎臓糸球体モデルは，腎小体に見立てた蓋に孔を開けたプラスチック容器，赤血球や血液中に存在する様々な物質を模した色や大きさの異なるビーズ，から構成される。生徒は，この教材を用いた授業実践を経て，血球以外の水溶性成分は要不要に関わらず一旦腎小体でろ過されてしまうこと，生体に必要なブドウ糖は尿細管において能動的に再吸収されることを理解し，腎臓のろ過と再吸収に関する新しい考え方と関連する概念を獲得することができた，と考えられた。本研究で開発した教材を用いることにより，生徒の腎臓の役割についての理解を深化させること，同時に自身の健康への関心を高めさせること，について有効であることが分かった。

en-abstract=
kn-abstract=　This study examined the effectiveness of a preferred character as a stimulus prompt in teaching table-wiping skills to a student with intellectual disability and autism spectrum disorder who had pervasive support needs. A multiple-treatments design was utilized to determine if the projected character prompt strategy was the most effective, followed by the character puppet prompt and the marker prompt. Results indicated that the marker prompt strategy and the projected character strategy were equally effective in helping the student to acquire table-wiping skills and more effective than the character puppet prompt strategy. However, the projected character prompt strategy elicited the most positive expressions and the fewest refusal behaviors. In contrast, the marker prompt strategy induced the fewest positive express ions and the most refusa l behaviors.

en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=　児童の幸福や心理的 well-being を高める研究の1つが，よい character の育成を目指す教育研究である。Lavy（2020）は，これには2つの流れがあるとする。１つが character education，もう１つは character strengths education である。本稿では，まずこの2つの特徴について解説して世界の流れを示し，次にポジティブ心理学に基づく character strengths education の限界点を指摘した。具体的には，その原典となるVIA-IS（Peterson & Seligman, 2004）について，東アジアにおける強みと well-being の関連研究がほとんど成されていないこと，加えて児童期の教育的介入の成果がほとんど見られないことを指摘した。これらの検討を通して，児童期の認知特性や発達段階に応じた，児童の負荷の少ない身体活動量，習慣形成の視点で character の育成を目指す教育的介入の可能性について議論した。

en-abstract=
kn-abstract=　本研究では，大学部活動のチームにおける目標設定が部活動適応感に及ぼす影響について，個人目標と集団目標の整合性に着目して検討した。大学生187 名を対象に質問紙調査を実施し，個人目標・集団目標の4 要素（困難度，具体性，関与度，フィードバック），目標の整合性，そして部活動適応感を測定した。重回帰分析の結果，目標の整合性は，「活動への傾倒」と「組織・成員への満足」に正の効果を示した。また，集団目標の関与度も適応感を高める要因であった。さらに，整合性は目標要素の効果を調整していた。整合性が高い場合には個人目標への関与度が「活動への傾倒」を促進し，低い場合には集団目標のフィードバックが補完的に機能していた。これらの知見から，目標の整合性が，個人目標と集団目標の葛藤を緩和し，部活動における心理的適応を支える重要な要因であることが示唆された。

en-abstract=
kn-abstract=　マインドワンダリング(以下MW)は心が自己内の複数の領域をさまようことで, 新たな気づきや発想
が生まれる土壌になるとされる。本稿では，この創造性を検討するため，水間(2003)を参考に，自己嫌悪
場面で生起する4 つの反応についての研究モデルを用いてこの創造性を検討した。その際，MW とその
他の類似の内省を区別するため，自己嫌悪場面で生起する内言として自己注目(省察・反芻), 自己への没
入(MW・空想)の4 つを想定した。またその内言が自己の成長にとって意味のある内言か否かを判断する
指標として本来感を用いた。分析の結果, 本来感高群において, MW による集中力の欠如が人の思考を
多領域にさまよわせ, 内的な個性の創造と内的な個人の成長を促すことが示された。また低群において
省察は自分らしさを求め変容を目指す意識が促進されることが示された。他方, 反芻と空想はいずれの
反応様式にも関わっていないことがわかった。
