kn-title=INF2-Related Charcot–Marie–Tooth Disease in a Japanese Cohort: Genetic and Clinical Insights
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Background: INF2 mutations cause focal segmental glomerulosclerosis (FSGS) and Charcot–Marie–Tooth disease (CMT). Accurate genetic diagnosis is critical, as INF2-related FSGS is typically resistant to immunotherapy yet rarely recurs after transplantation, and its associated neuropathy can mimic treatable immune-mediated disorders such as chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyradiculoneuropathy (CIDP).<br>
Methods: We performed a multicenter study investigating 3329 Japanese patients with inherited peripheral neuropathies/CMT who underwent gene panel sequencing or whole-exome analysis between 2007 and 2024. Clinical data, including electrophysiological assessments, were obtained from the patients' medical records.<br>
Results: We identified six pathogenic INF2 variants in eight patients, all of which were located within the diaphanous inhibitory domain. Structural modeling revealed clustering of variants near the diaphanous autoregulatory domain-binding pocket, which is critical for INF2 autoinhibition. Clinically, all cases were sporadic, with a median age at neurological onset of 9 years. All patients exhibited lower limb weakness, and 6/8 (75%) had sensory disturbances. All patients also developed kidney dysfunction, with 7/8 (88%) progressing to end-stage renal disease at a median age of 15 years. Furthermore, all patients showed demyelinating neuropathy, and 2/8 (25%) received immunotherapy due to suspected immune-mediated neuropathy.<br>
Conclusion: Although INF2 variants are a rare cause of CMT in Japan, they should be considered in pediatric patients with demyelinating neuropathy and early-onset proteinuria, even in the absence of a family history. Blood and urine tests assessing renal dysfunction can provide guidance for appropriate genetic testing.

en-subtitle=

kn-abstract=Not all file in firmware are executed while using Internet of Things (IoT) devices and hundreds to approximately a thousand executable and linkable format files exist in one firmware. Therefore, security investigations without prioritization may lead to investigate programs that are not executed while using IoT devices first. This has resulted in inefficient security investigations. To perform efficient security investigations, we proposed a method that can identify programs executed during the startup process. However, only two firmware were used for the evaluation which can only evaluate one of the two startup sequences in the OpenWrt-based firmware. In addition, security investigations to validate whether the proposed method addresses the problem of inefficient security investigations were limited to OpenWrt-based firmware. In this study, we use more firmware data for evaluation and validation. We use nine firmware not used in previous studies including startup methods that have not previously been used for evaluation. In addition, we increase the number of firmware used for validation to 225. The evaluation results demonstrate that the proposed method can identify with only few false positives. The validation demonstrates that efficiency can be improved and prioritizing investigations by considering the proposed method result is worthwhile.

kn-title=Introduction to the “Japanese and Western approaches to psychotrauma” symposium
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Understandings of psychotrauma have changed throughout medical history, shaped by cultural and social factors. Reviewing transcultural perspectives of psychotrauma helps understand its complexities and contextual impacts. This paper summarizes the Japan–Netherlands symposium on psychotrauma held on March 1, 2024. Despite experiencing psychological trauma from World War II and numerous natural disasters, Japan did not actively research post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) for nearly 50 years after the war. The Great Hanshin-Awaji Earthquake and the Tokyo subway Sarin gas attack (1995) popularized the term PTSD in Japan and triggered related research. The absence of psychotrauma research in Japan may reflect a form of state-level PTSD, characterized by avoidance. Japan’s collectivist culture, stigma against seeking psychological help, view of patience as a virtue, survivor guilt, and moral injury were potential related factors. Additionally, sociocultural factors (e.g., insufficient collective grieving and focusing on post-war reconstruction) were discussed as potential hinderances to discussing war experiences. From a European perspective, we examined how “Konzentrationslager” (KZ) syndrome, a trauma-related disorder, evolved independently into diverse conceptual frameworks, ultimately contributing to the acceptance of PTSD following its introduction in 1980. Beyond state compensation for concentration camp survivors, advocacy by feminist movements and veterans' groups increased awareness of psychotrauma across Europe, fostering scholarly research and public discourse. Both PTSD and KZ syndromes are diagnostic categories shaped by specific historical and cultural contexts and should not be regarded as simple, universally applicable medical conditions. They reflect how trauma is interpreted and responded to differently depending on cultural, political, and historical factors.

kn-title=Rectal Swab–based Targeted Prophylactic Antibiotics Reduce Infectious Complications After Transrectal Prostate Biopsy: A Systematic Review and Meta-analysis of Randomized Controlled Trials
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Background and objective: Transperineal ultrasound-guided prostate biopsy is the recommended approach in guidelines, while transrectal ultrasound-guided prostate biopsy (TRUS-PB) is still widely used to diagnose prostate cancer (PCa); however, it is associated with a significant rate of infectious complications. We aimed to assess the efficacy of targeted prophylactic antibiotics (TPAs), based on rectal swabs, in reducing the incidence of infectious complications after TRUS-PB compared with empiric prophylactic antibiotics.<br>
Methods: PubMed, Web of Science, and Scopus were queried in December 2024 for randomized controlled trials (RCTs) comparing infectious complications between patients who received TPAs based on rectal swab culture before TRUS-PB and those who received empiric prophylactic antibiotics before TRUS-PB (PROSPERO: CRD42024523794). The primary outcomes were the incidence rates of febrile urinary tract infection (fUTI) and sepsis.<br>
Key findings and limitations: Overall, nine RCTs (n = 3002) were included in our analyses. The incidence of fUTI was approximately half as high in patients who received TPAs as in those who received empiric prophylactic antibiotics (n = 3002, 2.7% vs 5.2%, risk ratio [RR]: 0.54, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.36–0.81, p = 0.003). Based on these pooled incidence rates, the number of patients needed to treat to prevent fUTI after TRUS-PB was 40; however, there was no statistically significant difference in the incidence of sepsis between patients receiving TPAs and those who received empiric antibiotic prophylaxis (n = 2735, 1.3% vs 1.8%, RR: 0.74, 95% CI: 0.31–1.75, p = 0.4).<br>
Conclusions and clinical implications: TPAs based on rectal swab culture significantly reduces the incidence of fUTI in patients who undergo TRUS-PB for PCa diagnosis compared with that in patients who receive empiric prophylactic antibiotics; however, there is insufficient evidence to assess its effect on the risk of sepsis. We recommend, based on the clinically relevant reduction in the incidence of fUTI, performing rectal swab–based TPAs in patients undergoing TRUS-PB.<br>
Patient summary: We reviewed infections occurring after transrectal prostate biopsy in over 3000 patients. The use of antibiotics chosen based on a simple rectal swab decreased the rate of postbiopsy fever and urinary tract infections by half compared with the use of standard antibiotics. More research is needed to understand whether this approach also prevents the rare but serious complication of sepsis.

en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Pancreatoduodenectomy (PD) after esophagectomy with gastric conduit reconstruction is technically challenging. Preserving the blood supply of the gastric conduit is crucial in performing PD after esophagectomy. We report the case of a 66-year-old man who underwent gastroduodenal artery-preserving PD after esophagectomy with gastric conduit reconstruction for intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasm. The patient developed pseudoaneurysm rupture postoperatively, but was successfully treated with interventional radiology. Precise assessment is important in developing a surgical strategy depending on the patient’s specific anatomy and tumor characteristics. Moreover, special attention should be paid to avoid accidental injuries of the gastric conduit and gastric vessels during surgery.

kn-title=The Utility of a Preoperative 3D Imaging Analysis System for Trigonal Meningioma
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Trigonal meningiomas are rare and pose surgical challenges due to their deep location and proximity to critical neuroanatomical structures. We present the case of a 67-year-old woman with a growing trigonal meningioma successfully resected with guidance by a preoperative 3D imaging analysis system. Integration of CT and MRI including diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) enabled precise mapping of the optic radiation, guiding a middle temporal gyrus approach. Preoperative embolization reduced tumor vascularity, facilitating gross total resection with minimal blood loss. This case highlights the effectiveness of preoperative 3D imaging systems in optimizing surgical planning and improving outcomes in complex neurosurgical cases.

en-abstract=
kn-abstract=We report the case of a 72-year-old Japanese man with an incidental portal vein mass that was surgically resected and diagnosed as immunoglobulin G4 (IgG4)-related disease. The mass was discovered during an atrial fibrillation examination. The patient had a history of gastric cancer and was also diagnosed with rectal cancer, raising concerns about metastasis. Due to technical challenges, a biopsy was not feasible. Imaging findings suggested portal vein tumor thrombosis, complicating the diagnosis. This case highlights a rare presentation of IgG4-related disease mimicking portal vein tumor thrombus.

kn-title=Blood Pressure and Heart Rate Patterns Identified by Unsupervised Machine Learning and Their Associations with Subclinical Cerebral and Renal Damage in a Japanese Community: The Masuda Study
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=We applied unsupervised machine learning to analyze blood pressure (BP) and resting heart rate (HR) patterns measured during a 1-year period to assess their cross-sectional relationships with subclinical cerebral and renal target damage. Dimension reduction via uniform manifold approximation and projection, followed by K-means++ clustering, was used to categorize 362 community-dwelling participants (mean age, 56.2 years; 54.9% women) into three groups: Low BP and Low HR (Lo-BP/Lo-HR), High BP and High HR (Hi-BP/Hi-HR), and Low BP and High HR (Lo-BP/Hi-HR). Cerebral vessel lesions were defined as the presence of at least one of the following magnetic resonance imaging findings: lacunar infarcts, white matter hyperintensities, cerebral microbleeds, or intracranial artery stenosis. A high urinary albumin-to-creatinine ratio (UACR) was defined as the top 10% (≥ 12 mg/g) of the mean value from ≥2 measurements. Poisson regression with robust error variance, adjusted for demographics, lifestyle, and medical history, showed that the Hi-BP/Hi-HR group had relative risks of 3.62 (95% confidence interval, 1.75-7.46) for cerebral vessel lesions and 3.58 (1.33-9.67) for high UACR, and the Lo-BP/Hi-HR group had a relative risk of 3.09 (1.12-8.57) for high UACR, compared with the Lo-BP/Lo-HR group. These findings demonstrate the utility of an unsupervised, data-driven approach for identifying physiological patterns associated with subclinical target organ damage.

kn-title=Current Status of Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation as a Treatment Strategy for Primary Graft Dysfunction after Lung Transplantation
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Primary graft dysfunction (PGD) is one of the major risk factors affecting patients’ short- and long-term survival after lung transplantation. No particular management strategy has been established for PGD; supportive care is the mainstay of PGD treatment. When a supportive strategy fails, the patient may require the introduction of extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) as the last-resort measure for severe PGD. A variety of study of ECMO as a PGD treatment was reported and the management of PGD patients developed so far. Early recognition of a patient’s need for ECMO and its prompt initiation are critical to improved outcomes. The use of venovenous-ECMO became the preferred procedure for PGD rather than venoarterial-ECMO. However, the current ECMO strategy has limitations, and using ECMO to manage patients with PGD is not sufficiently effective. Further studies are required to develop this promising technology.

kn-title=A Review of the Endoscopic Treatment for Bile Leak Following Cholecystectomy and Hepatic Surgery
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Bile leak occurs in 2-25% of liver transplant, 3-27% of hepatic resection, and 0.1-4% of cholecystectomy cases. The clinical course of bile leak varies depending on the type of surgery that caused the fistula, as well as the type, severity, and timing of bile duct injury. Although infections resulting from bile leak can be life-threatening, the introduction of endoscopic treatment has enabled some patients to avoid reoperation and has reduced the negative impact on quality of life associated with external fistulas for percutaneous drainage. Endoscopic interventions, such as sphincterotomy and stent placement, reduce the pressure gradient between the bile duct and duodenum, facilitating bile drainage through the papilla and promoting the closure of the leak. We reviewed the literature from 2004 to 2024 regarding bile leak following cholecystectomy and liver surgery, examining recommended techniques, timing, and treatment outcomes. In cases of bile leak following cholecystectomy, clinical success was achieved in 72-96% of cases, while success rates for bile leak following liver surgery ranged from 50% to 100%. Although endoscopic treatment is effective, it is not universally applicable, and its limitations must be carefully considered.

kn-title=Risk Factors for Perioperative Urinary Tract Infection After Living Donor Kidney Transplantation Characterized by High Prevalence of Desensitization Therapy: A Single-Center Analysis
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Background/Objectives: Limited research exists on risk factors for urinary tract infections (UTIs) in kidney transplant recipients, particularly in high-risk groups such as ABO-incompatible or donor-specific antibody (DSA)-positive cases. Early UTIs, especially within the first month post-transplant, impact on acute rejection and long-term graft outcomes, highlighting the need for risk factor identification and management. Methods: Among 157 living donor kidney transplant cases performed at our institution between 2009 and 2024, 128 patients were included after excluding cases with >72 h of perioperative prophylactic antibiotics or urological complications. UTI was defined as the presence of pyuria and a positive urine culture, accompanied by clinical symptoms requiring antibiotic treatment, occurring within one month post-transplantation. Results: The median onset of UTI was postoperative day 8 (interquartile range, IQR: 6.8–9.3). No subsequent acute rejection episodes were observed. The median serum creatinine at 1 month postoperatively was 1.3 mg/dL (IQR: 1.1–1.7), and this was not significantly different from those who did not develop UTI. In univariate analysis, low or high BMI (<20 or >25), longer dialysis duration (>2.5 years), desensitization therapy (plasmapheresis + rituximab), elevated preoperative neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) (≥3), and longer warm ischemic time (WIT) (≥7.8 min) were significantly associated with an increased infection risk of UTI (p = 0.010, 0.036, 0.028, 0.015, and 0.038, respectively). Multivariate analyses revealed that abnormal BMI, longer dialysis duration, desensitization therapy, and longer WIT were independent risk factors for UTI (p = 0.012, 0.031, 0.008, and 0.033, respectively). The incidence of UTI increased with the number of risk factors: 0% (0/16) for zero, 10% (5/48) for one, 31% (16/51) for two, 45% (5/11) for three, and 100% (2/2) for four risk factors. Conclusions: Desensitization therapy, BMI, dialysis duration, and WIT were identified as independent risk factors for perioperative UTI. In patients with risk factors, additional preventive strategies should be considered, with extended antibiotic prophylaxis being one potential option.

kn-title=A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis of Penis Length and Circumference According to WHO Regions: Who has the Biggest One?
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=This study aimed to perform a systematic review and meta-analysis of stretched, erect, and flaccid penis length as well as circumference according to geographic WHO regions. PubMed, Embase, Scopus, and Cochrane Library were searched for articles published until February 2024. Studies in which a healthcare professional evaluated the penis size were considered eligible. After assessing the risk of bias, a systematic review and meta-analyses were performed according to the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Review and Meta-analysis statement, and the outcomes were grouped based on the WHO regions. A total of 33 studies comprising 36 883 patients were included. The risk of bias in the included studies was moderate/low. A comprehensive systematic review was done and meta-analyses performed for flaccid length [n = 28 201, mean (SE) 9.22 (0.24) cm], stretched length [n = 20 814, mean (SE) 12.84 (0.32) cm], erect length [n = 5669, mean (SE) 13.84 (0.94) cm], flaccid circumference [n = 30 117, mean (SE) 9.10 (0.12) cm], and erect circumference [n = 5168, mean (SE) 11.91 (0.18) cm]. The mean length of the stretched penis was largest in Americans [14.47 (0.90) cm]. The mean length of the flaccid penis was the largest in the Americas [10.98 (0.064) cm]. The mean flaccid penile circumference was largest in Americans [n = 29 714, mean (SE) 10.00 (0.04) cm]. Penis sizes vary across WHO regions, suggesting the need to adjust standards according to geography to better understand councilmen and their partners. These data provide a framework for discussing body image expectations and therapeutic strategies in this sensitive and emotional subject matter.

kn-title=Advancements in systemic therapy for muscle-invasive bladder cancer: A systematic review from the beginning to the latest updates
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Context: Several phase III randomized controlled trials (RCTs) have shown the importance of perioperative systemic therapy, especially for the efficacy of immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) in both neoadjuvant and adjuvant settings for muscle-invasive bladder cancer (MIBC).<br>
Objective: To synthesize the growing evidence on the efficacy and safety of systemic therapies for MIBC utilizing the data from RCTs.<br>
Evidence acquisition: Three databases and ClinicalTrials.gov were searched in October 2024 for eligible RCTs evaluating oncologic outcomes in MIBC patients treated with systemic therapy. We evaluated pathological complete response (pCR), disease-free survival (DFS), progression-free survival (PFS), event-free survival (EFS), overall survival (OS), and adverse events (AEs).<br>
Evidence synthesis: Thirty-three RCTs (including 14 ongoing trials) were included in this systematic review. Neoadjuvant chemotherapy improved OS compared to radical cystectomy alone. Particularly, the VESPER trial demonstrated that dd-MVAC provided oncological benefits over GC alone in terms of pCR rates, OS (HR: 0.71), and PFS (HR: 0.70). Recently, the NIAGARA trial showed that perioperative durvalumab plus GC outperformed GC alone in terms of pCR rates, OS (HR: 0.75), and EFS (HR: 0.68). Despite the lack of data on overall AE rates in the VESPER trial, differential safety profiles in hematologic toxicity were reported between dd-MVAC and durvalumab plus GC regimens. In the adjuvant setting, no study provided the OS benefit from adjuvant chemotherapy. However, only adjuvant nivolumab had significant DFS and OS benefits compared to placebo.<br>
Conclusions: Neoadjuvant chemotherapy remains the current standard of care for MIBC. Durvalumab shed light on the promising impact of ICIs added to neoadjuvant chemotherapy. Nivolumab is the only ICI recommended as adjuvant therapy in patients who harbored adverse pathologic outcomes. Ongoing trials will provide further information on the impact of combination therapy, including chemotherapy, ICIs, and enfortumab vedotin, in both neoadjuvant and adjuvant settings.

Four industrial koji mold strains: Aspergillus oryzae 6001, A. oryzae 6020, A. sojae 7009, and A. luchuensis 8035, were cultivated on unpolished Thai-colored rice (Riceberry and Sangyod), unpolished Thai white rice (RD43), and polished Japanese white rice (Koshihikari). We discovered that koji molds grew on all the rice varieties. Methanol extracts of all rice kojis exhibited an approximately 2-fold or greater increase in total phenolic content and DPPH antioxidant activity compared to those of steamed rice. Moreover, quercetin, quercetin-3-O-glucoside, isorhamnetin-3-O-glucoside, ferulic acid, caffeic acid, protocatechuic acid, vanillic acid, (+)-catechin, and (–)-epicatechin content increased in Riceberry and Sangyod koji samples. Consequently, Aspergillus solid-state cultivation on unpolished Thai-colored rice exhibited higher functionalization than the cultivation of unpolished Thai white rice and polished Japanese white rice.

kn-title=Optical bandgap tuning in SnO2–MoS2 nanocomposites: manipulating the mass of SnO2 and MoS2 using sonochemical solution mixing
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=This study investigates controlled optical bandgap tuning through precise adjustment of the SnO2 and MoS2 mass in nanocomposites. A sonochemical solution mixing method, coupled with bath sonication, is employed for the preparation of SnO2–MoS2 nanocomposite. This approach allows for comprehensive characterization using UV–Vis FTIR, XRD, EDX, Raman spectroscopies, and FESEM, providing insights into morphology, chemical, and optical properties. Increasing the SnO2 mass leads to a linear decrease in the optical bandgap energy, from 3.0 to 1.7 eV. Similarly, increasing the MoS2 mass also results in a decrease in the optical bandgap energy, with a limitation of around 2.01 eV. This work demonstrates superior control over optical bandgap by manipulating the SnO2 mass compared to MoS2, highlighting the complexities introduced by MoS2 2D nanosheets during sonication. These findings hold significant value for optoelectronic applications, emphasizing enhanced control of optical bandgap through systematic mass manipulation.

en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=The study investigated the constraints associated with the dilution technique in determining the optical bandgap of nanoparticle dispersion and modified nanocomposites, utilizing ultraviolet-visible absorbance spectra and Tauc plot analysis. A case study involving SnO2 dispersion and SnO2-MoS2 nanocomposite solutions, prepared through the direct solution mixing method, was conducted to assess the implications of dilution upon the absorbance spectra and bandgap estimation. The results emphasize the considerable impact of the dilution technique on the measured optical bandgap, demonstrating that higher dilution factors lead to shift in bandgap values. Furthermore, the study highlights that dilution can induce variations in the average nanoparticle sizes due to agglomeration, thereby influencing bandgap estimation. In the context of nanocomposites, the interaction between SnO2 nanoparticles and exfoliated MoS2 nanosheets diminishes with increasing dilution, leading to the estimated optical bandgap being primarily attributable to SnO2 nanoparticles alone. These observations underscore the necessity for caution when employing the dilution technique for bandgap estimation in nanoparticles dispersion and nanocomposites, offering valuable insights for researchers and practitioners in the field.

kn-title=Computed tomography versus aortography for transcatheter patent ductus arteriosus closure in adults
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Accurate sizing of the patent ductus arteriosus (PDA) is essential for successful transcatheter closure. While aortography is the standard imaging modality, computed tomography (CT) may offer superior anatomical visualization. This study aimed to compare the accuracy and procedural outcomes of preprocedural CT versus aortography alone in adult patients undergoing transcatheter PDA closure. We retrospectively analyzed 54 adult patients who underwent PDA closure using the Amplatzer™ Duct Occluder between 2009 and 2024. Nineteen patients were treated based on aortography alone and 35 based on preprocedural CT. We compared procedural characteristics and outcomes, including device size exchange and procedure time. A simulation study was also conducted in which two blinded implanters independently predicted occluder size based on CT and aortography, with actual implanted device size used as the reference. The CT group had significantly larger PDA sizes and implanted device sizes. Device replacement was required in three patients in the aortography group but none in the CT group. Procedure time was shorter in the CT group (60 ± 9 vs. 70 ± 14 min, p = 0.003). Simulation results showed that CT more accurately predicted the actual implanted device size (85% vs. 63%, p = 0.008). PDA size at the pulmonary artery end was significantly underestimated by aortography. Preprocedural CT improved procedural efficiency and device selection accuracy in adult PDA closure. These findings suggest that CT imaging may enhance planning and safety in transcatheter PDA interventions.

kn-title=Can online interactions reduce loneliness in young adults during university closures in Japan? The directed acyclic graphs approach
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=As a countermeasure to the increased loneliness induced by the COVID-19 pandemic-related university closures, universities provided students with online interaction opportunities. However, whether these opportunities contributed to reducing loneliness during the university closures remains unclear, as previous studies have produced contradictory findings. We conducted a nationwide cross-sectional survey. Data were collected on demographics, social environment, social support, interactions, health and loneliness from 4949 students from 60 universities across Japan. We used psychological network and Directed Acyclic Graphs (DAGs) to examine the effect of online interactions on loneliness during university closures during COVID-19. The results showed that the frequency of online interactions with friends did not exert a significant influence on loneliness during university closures. A comparative examination of the DAGs further illuminated that the social environment exhibited fewer pathways for interpersonal interactions and social support during these closure periods. The psychosocial pathways influencing young adults' loneliness show variations contingent on the university's closure status. Notably, the impact of heightened online interactions with friends on loneliness appears to be less pronounced among young adults in the context of university closure.

kn-title=Dennd2c Negatively Controls Multinucleation and Differentiation in Osteoclasts by Regulating Actin Polymerization and Protrusion Formation
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Osteoclasts are bone-resorbing multinucleated giant cells formed by the fusion of monocyte/macrophage lineages. Various small GTPases are involved in the multinucleation and differentiation of osteoclasts. However, the roles of small GTPases regulatory molecules in osteoclast differentiation remain unclear. In the present study, we examined the role of Dennd2c, a putative guanine nucleotide exchange factor for Rab GTPases, in osteoclast differentiation. Knockdown of Dennd2c promoted osteoclast differentiation, resorption, and expression of osteoclast markers. Morphologically, Dennd2c knockdown induced the formation of larger osteoclasts with several protrusions. In contrast, overexpression of Dennd2c inhibited the multinucleation and differentiation of osteoclasts, bone resorption, and the expression of osteoclast markers. Dennd2c-overexpressing macrophages exhibited spindle-shaped mononuclear cells and long thin protrusions. Treatment of Dennd2c-overexpressing cells with the Cdc42 inhibitor ML-141 or the Rac1 inhibitor 6-thio-GTP prevented protrusion formation. Moreover, treatment of Dennd2c-overexpressing cells with the actin polymerization inhibitor latrunculin B restored multinucleated and TRAP-positive osteoclast formation. These results indicate that Dennd2c negatively regulates osteoclast differentiation and multinucleation by modulating protrusion formation in macrophages.

kn-title=New Catalytic Residues and Catalytic Mechanism of the RNase T1 Family
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=The ribonuclease T1 family, including RNase Po1 secreted by Pleurotus ostreatus, exhibits antitumor activity. Here, we resolved the Po1/guanosine-3′-monophosphate complex (3′GMP) structure at 1.75 Å. Structure comparison and fragment molecular orbital (FMO) calculation between the apo form and the Po1/3′GMP complex identified Phe38, Phe40, and Glu42 as the key binding residues. Two types of the RNase/3′GMP complex in RNasePo1 and RNase T1 were homologous to Po1, and FMO calculations elucidated that the biprotonated histidine on the β3 sheet (His36) on the β3 sheet and deprotonated Glu54 on the β4 sheet were advantageous to RNase activity. Moreover, tyrosine (Tyr34) on the β3 sheet was elucidated as a crucial catalytic residues. Mutation of Tyr34 with phenylalanine decreased RNase activity and diminished antitumor efficacy compared to that in the wild type. This suggests the importance of RNase activity in antitumor mechanisms.

kn-title=Nationwide diversity of symbolic “city flowers” in Japan is increasing

kn-abstract=Recognizing and maintaining locally rooted human–nature interactions is essential for utilizing ecosystem services. Although the general public's awareness of biodiversity and ecosystem services has been examined using various proxies, it remains unclear how local governments—key sectors in creating conservation policies—appreciate them within a solid local context. Here, we focused on the “city flower,” an official symbolic species of Japanese cities, as a new proxy for measuring governmental attitudes toward biota and its services. We aimed to capture temporal changes in the awareness of species with locally relevant value at the city government level by examining the changes in city flowers over more than half a century. Data from the official websites of municipalities, including the names, the adoption years, and the reasons for adoption, revealed two major periods of adoption, with a notable increase in species diversity in and after 1993. This increase could be attributed to a recent reduction in bias toward popular flowers and growing interest in alternative, less popular flowers. Analysis of the reasons for adoption suggested that the temporal change in adopted flower species was related to the increasing emphasis on species with an explicit local context, especially those with instrumental value to the city. Our findings indicate the tendency for local governments to increasingly recognize their biocultural backgrounds and the ecosystem services of plants within their regions. The growing awareness of the local governments regarding their biocultural background is a positive sign for the conservation of biodiversity and ecosystem services.

kn-abstract=Post-spinel-type AB2O4 compounds are stable at higher pressures than spinel phases. These compounds have garnered much interest in geo- and materials science for their geochemical importance as well as potential application as high ionic conductors and materials with strongly correlated electrons. Here, large-volume high-pressure syntheses, structural features and properties of post-spinels are reviewed. Prospects are discussed for future searches for post-spinel-type phases by applying advanced large-volume high-pressure technology.

kn-title=Impact of a Peer-Led International Training Program on Work Motivation Among Early-Career Psychiatrists: A Mixed-Methods Study
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Background<br>
The Japan Young Psychiatrists Organization (JYPO) has conducted a Course for Academic Development of Psychiatrists (CADP), a peer-led residential international training program, since 2002 to promote the professional development of early-career psychiatrists. This study aimed to evaluate the impact of CADP on participants' work motivation using a psychometric scale and to identify the factors contributing to these changes.<br>
Methods<br>
We conducted a mixed-method study with 23 Japanese participants of the 21st CADP from March 8 to 10, 2024, in Himeji, Japan. Work motivation was assessed using the abbreviated version of the Measure of Multifaceted Work Motivations (MWM-12) at two time points: two weeks before and three months after the course. The total and subitem scores of the MWM-12 were analyzed using the Wilcoxon signed-rank test. Furthermore, free-text responses collected before and after the course were subjected to qualitative analyses.<br>
Results<br>
Significant improvements were observed in the MWM-12 total score from pre-course to post-course. Significant increases were also identified in specific sub-items: M1 (directionality of achievement-oriented motivation), M4 (directionality of competition-oriented motivation), M6 (sustainability of competition-oriented motivation), and M9 (sustainability of cooperation-oriented motivation). Qualitative analysis revealed changes in key categories, including growth as a psychiatrist, personal networking, personal growth, and increased motivation. The integration of quantitative and qualitative findings suggested that enhanced career perspectives (M1), professional growth and peer interaction (M4), and increased self-confidence and support networks (M6 and M9) contributed to improved motivation.<br>
Conclusion<br>
This study demonstrated that a three-day, two-night peer-led training program positively influenced work motivation among early-career psychiatrists.

kn-title=Disruption of the Enterococcus faecalis–Induced Biofilm on the Intraocular Lens Using Bacteriophages
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Purpose: To compare the effects of bacteriophages (phages) and vancomycin on Enterococcus faecalis–induced biofilms on the intraocular lens.<br>
Methods: E. faecalis strains EF24, GU02, GU03, and phiEF14H1 were used. The expression of the enterococcus surface protein (esp) gene was analyzed using polymerase chain reaction. Phages or vancomycin was added to the biofilms formed on culture plates or acrylic intraocular lenses. The biofilms were quantified after staining with crystal violet. The structure of the biofilms was analyzed using scanning electron microscopy.<br>
Results: E. faecalis strains EF24, GU02, and GU03 formed biofilms on cell culture plates; however, the esp-negative GU03 strain had a significantly lower biofilm-forming ability than the esp-positive strains EF24 and GU02. The addition of phiEF14H1 resulted in a significant reduction in biofilm mass produced by both EF24 and GU02 compared with the untreated control. However, the addition of vancomycin did not degrade the biofilms. Phages significantly degraded biofilms and reduced the viable EF24 and GU02 bacteria on the intraocular lens.<br>
Conclusions: Phages can degrade biofilms formed on the intraocular lens and destroy the bacteria within it. Thus, phage therapy may be a new treatment option for refractory and recurrent endophthalmitis caused by biofilm-forming bacteria.<br>
Translational Relevance: Phage therapy, a novel treatment option for refractory and recurrent endophthalmitis caused by biofilm-forming bacteria, effectively lyses E. faecalis–induced biofilms.

kn-title=Inert structural transition in 4H and 6H SiC at high pressure and temperature: a Raman spectroscopy study
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=We conducted Raman spectroscopy measurements of 4H-SiC and 6H-SiC up to 69 GPa and 1023 K to assess the stability and bonding of SiC at high pressure and temperature. Both optic and acoustic modes were observed at wide pressure and temperature ranges. The temperature shifts of the Raman frequencies were fitted by the equation with the Bose–Einstein distribution function, and we found that the shifts were almost insensitive to the pressure. The mode Grüneisen coefficients weakly depend on the pressure and temperature, suggesting the sluggish transition of the crystal structure, unlike the previous experiments showing the transition or decomposition of SiC at high pressure and temperature conditions. Inert transitions are confirmed by Raman measurements and annealing experiments using multiple high-pressure apparatuses. The crystallinity may be a hidden critical parameter in the experiments to determine the stable polytypes of SiC under high pressure and temperature.

kn-title=Unveiling a New Antimicrobial Peptide with Efficacy against P. aeruginosa and K. pneumoniae from Mangrove-Derived Paenibacillus thiaminolyticus NNS5-6 and Genomic Analysis
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=This study focused on the discovery of the antimicrobial peptide (AMP) derived from mangrove bacteria. The most promising isolate, NNS5-6, showed the closest taxonomic relation to Paenibacillus thiaminolyticus, with the highest similarity of 74.9%. The AMP produced by Paenibacillus thiaminolyticus NNS5-6 exhibited antibacterial activity against various Gram-negative pathogens, especially Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Klebsiella pneumoniae. The peptide sequence consisted of 13 amino acids and was elucidated as Val-Lys-Gly-Asp-Gly-Gly-Pro-Gly-Thr-Val-Tyr-Thr-Met. The AMP mainly exhibited random coil and antiparallel beta-sheet structures. The stability study indicated that this AMP was tolerant of various conditions, including proteolytic enzymes, pH (1.2–14), surfactants, and temperatures up to 40 °C for 12 h. The AMP demonstrated 4 µg/mL of MIC and 4–8 µg/mL of MBC against both pathogens. Time-kill kinetics showed that the AMP acted in a time- and concentration-dependent manner. A cell permeability assay and scanning electron microscopy revealed that the AMP exerted the mode of action by disrupting bacterial membranes. Additionally, nineteen biosynthetic gene clusters of secondary metabolites were identified in the genome. NNS5-6 was susceptible to various commonly used antibiotics supporting the primary safety requirement. The findings of this research could pave the way for new therapeutic approaches in combating antibiotic-resistant pathogens.

kn-title=Synthesis and Crystal Structure of Ilmenite-Type Silicate with Pyrope Composition
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Akimotoite, ilmenite-type MgSiO3 high-pressure polymorph can be stable in the lower-mantle transition zone along average mantle and subducting slab geotherms. Significant amounts of Al2O3 can be incorporated into the structure, having the pyrope (Mg3Al2Si3O12) composition. Previous studies have investigated the effect of Al2O3 on its crystal structure at nearly endmember compositions. In this study, we synthesized high-quality ilmenite-type Mg3Al2Si3O12 phase at 27 GPa and 1073 K by means of a Kawai-type multi-anvil press and refined the crystal structure at ambient conditions using a synchrotron X-ray diffraction data via the Rietveld method to examine the effect of Al2O3. The unit-cell lattice parameters were determined to be a = 4.7553(7) Å, c = 13.310(2) Å, and V = 260.66(6) Å3, with Z = 6 (hexagonal, R3̲
). The volume of the present phase was placed on the akimotoite-corundum endmember join. However, the refined structure showed a strong nonlinear behavior of the a- and c-axes, which can be explained by Al incorporation into the MgO6 and SiO6 octahedral sites, which are distinctly different each other. Ilmenite-type Mg3Al2Si3O12 phase may be found in shocked meteorites and can be a good indicator for shock conditions at relatively low temperatures of 1027–1127 K.

kn-title=Cyanorhodopsin-II represents a yellow-absorbing proton-pumping rhodopsin clade within cyanobacteria
en-subtitle=

kn-abstract=Microbial rhodopsins are prevalent in many cyanobacterial groups as a light-energy-harvesting system in addition to the photosynthetic system. It has been suggested that this dual system allows efficient capture of sunlight energy using complementary ranges of absorption wavelengths. However, the diversity of cyanobacterial rhodopsins, particularly in accumulated metagenomic data, remains underexplored. Here, we used a metagenomic mining approach, which led to the identification of a novel rhodopsin clade unique to cyanobacteria, cyanorhodopsin-II (CyR-II). CyR-IIs function as light-driven outward H+ pumps. CyR-IIs, together with previously identified cyanorhodopsins (CyRs) and cyanobacterial halorhodopsins (CyHRs), constitute cyanobacterial ion-pumping rhodopsins (CyipRs), a phylogenetically distinct family of rhodopsins. The CyR-II clade is further divided into two subclades, YCyR-II and GCyR-II, based on their specific absorption wavelength. YCyR-II absorbed yellow light (λmax = 570 nm), whereas GCyR-II absorbed green light (λmax = 550 nm). X-ray crystallography and mutational analysis revealed that the difference in absorption wavelengths is attributable to slight changes in the side chain structure near the retinal chromophore. The evolutionary trajectory of cyanobacterial rhodopsins suggests that the function and light-absorbing range of these rhodopsins have been adapted to a wide range of habitats with variable light and environmental conditions. Collectively, these findings shed light on the importance of rhodopsins in the evolution and environmental adaptation of cyanobacteria.

en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Background:  Lysyl oxidase (LOX) family proteins have recently become a topic in cancer progression. Our recent study found a high expression of LOX-like 4 (LOXL4) in MDA-MB-231 cells. Objective:  To reveal the impact of depleted LOXL4 in both in vitro and in vivo breast cancer models from a histological perspective. Material and Method: Endogenous LOXL4 was depleted using the CRISPR/Cas9 on MDA-MB-231 parental cells. Based on the LOXL4 protein expression, the clone was determined for the next experiment, thus generating MDA-MB-231 LOXL4 KO. Cell assay was conducted using colony formation assay (n=3) followed by crystal violet staining. The indicated cells were inoculated orthotopically to female BALB/c nude mice (n=5). At the end of the experiment, tumors were isolated, fixed, and prepared for Masson Trichrome staining. Result:  CRISPR/Cas9 completely depleted LOXL4 expression on clone number #2-22. Depletion of LOXL4 reduced the colony size formed by MDA-MB-231 cells. MDA-MB-231 LOXL4 KO #2-22 derived tumors showed depressed tumor volume compared to the parental group. Reduced collagen was also observed from the Masson Trichrome staining (p<0.001). Conclusion: Depletion of LOXL4 downregulates the growth of MDA-MB-231 cells in vitro and collagen deposition in vivo.

Abstract
Background: Biliary strictures are diagnosed using endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) with brush cytology and biopsy. However, brush cytology shows a sensitivity of 9–56.1% and a diagnostic accuracy of 43–65.4%, while biopsy demonstrates a sensitivity of 48%. Both methods exhibit high specificity but limited sensitivity. While rapid on-site evaluation (ROSE) is effective in endoscopic ultrasound-guided fine needle aspiration (EUS-FNA), its application in ERCP-obtained samples remains underexplored. Methods: This prospective pilot study was conducted at Okayama University Hospital from April 2019 to July 2024. Patients requiring ERCP-guided sampling for bile duct strictures were included. ROSE was applied to brush cytology with up to three additional attempts and to imprint cytology from biopsy samples with up to two attempts. Diagnostic accuracy was assessed based on pathology and clinical course. Results: Among 37 patients (median age: 73 years, add range, and male–female ratio: 27:10), 18 had hilar and 19 had distal bile duct strictures. Brush cytology required one, two, or three attempts in twenty-six, six, and five cases, respectively, whereas biopsy required one or two attempts in thirty-five and two cases, respectively. Among the thirty-seven cases, thirty-five were malignant and two were benign. The B-ROSE group showed a sensitivity, specificity, and accuracy of 71.4%, 100.0%, and 73.0%, respectively, compared to lower accuracy in the conventional group, where single brush cytology attempts yielded a sensitivity of 48.6% and an accuracy of 48.6%, and single biopsy attempts showed a sensitivity of 68.6% and an accuracy of 70.3%. Conclusions: B-ROSE improves diagnostic accuracy, reduces repeat sampling, and minimizes patient burden in ERCP-based diagnosis of bile duct strictures, making it a valuable addition to current diagnostic protocols.

kn-title=Vendor‐Agnostic Vision Transformer‐Based Artificial Intelligence for Peroral Cholangioscopy: Diagnostic Performance in Biliary Strictures Compared With Convolutional Neural Networks and Endoscopists
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Objectives: Accurate diagnosis of biliary strictures remains challenging. This study aimed to develop an artificial intelligence (AI) system for peroral cholangioscopy (POCS) using a Vision Transformer (ViT) architecture and to evaluate its performance compared to different vendor devices, conventional convolutional neural networks (CNNs), and endoscopists.<br>
Methods: We retrospectively analyzed 125 patients with indeterminate biliary strictures who underwent POCS between 2012 and 2024. AI models including the ViT architecture and two established CNN architectures were developed using images from CHF-B260 or B290 (CHF group; Olympus Medical) and SpyScope DS or DS II (Spy group; Boston Scientific) systems via a patient-level, 3-fold cross-validation. For a direct comparison against endoscopists, a balanced 440-image test set, containing an equal number of images from each vendor, was used for a blinded evaluation.<br>
Results: The 3-fold cross-validation on the entire 2062-image dataset yielded a robust accuracy of 83.9% (95% confidence interval (CI), 80.9–86.7) for the ViT model. The model's accuracy was consistent between CHF (82.7%) and Spy (86.8%, p = 0.198) groups, and its performance was comparable to the evaluated conventional CNNs. On the 440-image test set, the ViT's accuracy of 78.4% (95% CI, 72.5–83.8) was comparable to that of expert endoscopists (82.0%, p = 0.148) and non-experts (73.0%, p = 0.066), with no statistically significant differences observed.<br>
Conclusions: The novel ViT-based AI model demonstrated high vendor-agnostic diagnostic accuracy across multiple POCS systems, achieving performance comparable to conventional CNNs and endoscopists evaluated in this study.

kn-abstract=The 2024 Noto Peninsula earthquake (Mw 7.5) caused extensive damage in Ishikawa Prefecture, Japan, and surrounding areas, with considerable coastal uplift and tsunami flooding. Past 100 years’ records show no earthquake above Mw 7.0 in the Noto Peninsula, so for everyone alive today, this event is truly without precedent. Therefore, we aimed to support disaster prevention education by developing teaching materials using unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) based on digitally archived topographic changes. High-definition topographic data collected from multiple UAV surveys were processed into digital and analog formats, including 3D models, spherical panorama images, and 3D printings. These materials were designed to provide detailed and intuitive representations of post-disaster landforms and were used as educational tools in schools. The learning materials were introduced during a workshop for disaster-affected teachers, featuring hands-on activities to help participants familiarize themselves with the materials, and explore their integration into geography and science classes. Feedback from participants indicated that these tools were highly effective in enhancing classroom learning. The results of this study are expected to contribute to preserving disaster records while enhancing disaster awareness in educational settings and local communities.

kn-title=Optimization of Preemptive Therapy for Cytomegalovirus Infections With Valganciclovir Based on Therapeutic Drug Monitoring: Protocol for a Phase II, Single-Center, Single-Arm Trial
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Background: Valganciclovir (VGCV) is the first-line drug for preemptive therapy of cytomegalovirus (CMV) infections. However, even when administered at the dose specified in the package insert, there is significant interindividual variability in the plasma concentrations of ganciclovir (GCV). In addition, correlations have been reported between the area under the concentration–time curve and therapeutic efficacy or adverse events. Therefore, therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM) can be used to improve the efficacy and safety of preemptive VGCV therapy.<br>
Objective: This study aims to evaluate whether the dosage adjustment of VGCV based on TDM in patients undergoing preemptive therapy for CMV infections is associated with the successful completion rate of treatment without severe hematological adverse effects.<br>
Methods: This phase II, single-center, single-arm trial aims to enroll 40 patients admitted at the Department of Rheumatology and Clinical Immunology, Kobe University Hospital, who will receive oral VGCV as preemptive therapy for CMV infections. Participants will begin treatment with VGCV at the dose recommended in the package insert, with subsequent dose adjustments based on weekly TDM results. The primary end point will be the proportion of patients who achieve CMV antigenemia negativity within 3 weeks without severe hematological adverse events. The secondary end points will include weekly changes in CMV antigen levels, total VGCV dose, and duration of preemptive therapy. For safety evaluation, the occurrence, type, and severity of VGCV-related adverse events will be analyzed. Additionally, this study will explore the correlations between the efficacy and safety of preemptive therapy and the pharmacokinetic parameters of GCV, CMV-polymerase chain reaction values, and nudix hydrolase 15 (NUDT15) genetic polymorphisms. The correlation between GCV plasma concentrations obtained from regular venous blood and blood concentrations will be examined using dried blood spots.<br>
Results: This study began with patient recruitment in September 2024, with 5 participants enrolled as of June 16, 2025. The target enrollment is 40 participants, and the anticipated study completion is set for July 2027.<br>
Conclusions: This is the first study to investigate the impact of TDM intervention in patients receiving VGCV as preemptive therapy. The findings are postulated to provide valuable evidence regarding the utility of TDM in patients receiving VGCV as preemptive therapy.<br>

kn-title=Adequacy evaluation of 22‐gauge needle endoscopic ultrasound‐guided tissue acquisition samples and glass slides preparation for successful comprehensive genomic profiling testing: A single institute experience
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Objectives: This study aimed to evaluate the successful sequencing rate of Foundation One CDx (F1CDx) using small tissue samples obtained with a 22-gauge needle (22G) through endoscopic ultrasound-guided fine needle acquisition (EUS-TA) and to propose guidelines for tissue quantity evaluation criteria and proper slide preparation in clinical practice.<br>
Methods: Between June 2019 and April 2024, 119 samples of 22G EUS-TA collected for F1CDx testing at Himeji Red Cross Hospital were retrospectively reviewed. Tissue adequacy was only assessed based on tumor cell percentage (≥20%). The procedure stopped when white tissue fragments reached 20 mm during macroscopic on-site evaluation. The specimens were prepared using both ‘tissue preserving sectioning’ to retain tissue within formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded blocks and the ‘thin sectioning matched needle gauge and tissue length’ method with calculation to ensure minimal unstained slides for the 1 mm3 sample volume criterion. Tissue area from HE slides and sample volume were measured, and F1CDx reports were analyzed.<br>
Results: Of 119 samples, 108 (90.8%) were suitable for F1CDx. Excluding the cases not submitted for testing, in the 45 cases where F1CDx was done using 22G EUS-TA samples, eight (17.8%) had a sum of tissue area tissue of 25 mm2 or greater in the HE-stained sample. However, all cases met the F1CDx 1 mm3 volume criterion by submitting > 30 unstained slides per sample. As a result, 43 of 45 cases (95.6%) were successfully analyzable.<br>
Conclusions: The 22G EUS-TA needle is an effective tool for providing the sufficient tissue volume required for F1CDx.

kn-title=Development and Characterization of a Three-Dimensional Organotypic In Vitro Oral Cancer Model with Four Co-Cultured Cell Types, Including Patient-Derived Cancer-Associated Fibroblasts
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Background/Objectives: Cancer organoids have emerged as a valuable tool of three-dimensional (3D) cell cultures to investigate tumor heterogeneity and predict tumor behavior and treatment response. We developed a 3D organotypic culture model of oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) to recapitulate the tumor–stromal interface by co-culturing four cell types, including patient-derived cancer-associated fibroblasts (PD-CAFs). Methods: A stainless-steel ring was used twice to create the horizontal positioning of the cancer stroma (adjoining normal oral mucosa connective tissue) and the OSCC layer (surrounding normal oral mucosa epithelial layer). Combined with a structured bi-layered model of the epithelial component and the underlying stroma, this protocol enabled us to construct four distinct portions mimicking the oral cancer tissue arising in the oral mucosa. Results: In this model, α-smooth muscle actin-positive PD-CAFs were localized in close proximity to the OSCC layer, suggesting a crosstalk between them. Furthermore, a linear laminin-γ2 expression was lacking at the interface between the OSCC layer and the underlying stromal layer, indicating the loss of the basement membrane-like structure. Conclusions: Since the specific 3D architecture and polarity mimicking oral cancer in vivo provides a more accurate milieu of the tumor microenvironment (TME), it could be crucial in elucidating oral cancer TME.

kn-title=Recommendations for the treatment of juvenile idiopathic arthritis with oligoarthritis or polyarthritis from the 2024 update of the Japan College of Rheumatology Clinical Practice Guidelines for the management of rheumatoid arthritis including juvenile idiopathic arthritis with oligoarthritis or polyarthritis – secondary publication
en-subtitle=

kn-abstract=Objectives: To conduct systematic reviews (SRs) and develop clinical practice guidelines (CPGs) for managing juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA) with oligoarthritis or polyarthritis.<br>
Methods: The Grading of Recommendations, Assessment, Development, and Evaluation methodology was employed to carry out SRs and formulate the CPGs. An expert panel, including patients, paediatric and nonpaediatric rheumatologists, guideline specialists, and patient representatives, used the Delphi method to discuss and agree on the recommendations.<br>
Results: Six clinical questions (CQs) on the efficacy and safety of medical treatments were evaluated. These included CQ1 on methotrexate (MTX), CQ2 on non-MTX conventional synthetic disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs, CQ3 on glucocorticoids, CQ4 on tumour necrosis factor inhibitors, CQ5 on interleukin-6 inhibitors, and CQ6 on Janus kinase inhibitors. Two randomized controlled trials were identified for CQ1, three for CQ2, two for CQ3, eight for CQ4, two for CQ5, and two for CQ6. Based on these evaluations, three strong and three conditional recommendations were established. The CPGs have been endorsed by the Japan College of Rheumatology and the Pediatric Rheumatology Association of Japan.<br>
Conclusions: The SRs provided the necessary evidence to develop the CPGs, which are intended to guide not only paediatric but also nonpaediatric rheumatologists, caregivers, patients, and their families in treatment decision-making.

kn-title=Mice Recognise Mice in Neighbouring Rearing Cages and Change Their Social Behaviour
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Mice are social animals that change their behaviour primarily in response to visual, olfactory, and auditory information from conspecifics. Rearing conditions such as cage size and colour are important factors influencing mouse behaviour. In recent years, transparent plastic cages have become standard breeding cages. The advantage of using a transparent cage is that the experimenter can observe the mouse from outside the cage without touching the cage. However, mice may recognise the environment outside the cage and change their behaviour. We speculated that mice housed in transparent cages might recognise mice in neighbouring cages. We used only male mice in this experiment. C57BL/6 mice were kept in transparent rearing cages with open lids, and the cage positions were maintained for 3 weeks. Subsequently, we examined how mice behaved toward cagemate mice, mice from neighbouring cages, and mice from distant cages. We compared the level of interest in mice using a social preference test. Similar to previous reports, subject mice showed a high degree of interest in unfamiliar mice from distant cages. By contrast, subject mice reacted to mice from neighbouring cages as familiar mice, similar to cagemate mice. This suggests that mice housed in transparent cages with open lids perceive the external environment and identify mice in neighbouring cages. Researchers should pay attention to the environment outside the mouse cage, especially for the social preference test.

kn-title=Computed tomography findings of idiopathic multicentric Castleman disease subtypes
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=This study retrospectively evaluated the computed tomography (CT) findings of idiopathic multicentric Castleman disease (iMCD) at a single center and compared the CT findings of iMCD-TAFRO with those of iMCD-non-TAFRO. CT images obtained within 30 days before diagnostic confirmation were reviewed for 20 patients with iMCD (8 men and 12 women, mean age 52.8 ± 12.3 years, range 25–74 years). Twelve patients were diagnosed with iMCD-TAFRO, five with iMCD-idiopathic plasmacytic lymphadenopathy, and three with iMCD-not otherwise specified. CT images revealed anasarca and lymphadenopathy in all 20 patients. The iMCD-TAFRO group showed significantly higher frequencies of ascites (100% vs. 37.5%, P = 0.004), gallbladder wall edema (75.0% vs. 12.5%, P = 0.020), periportal collar (91.7% vs. 25.0%, P = 0.004), and anterior mediastinal lesions (non-mass-forming infiltrative lesions) (66.7% vs. 12.5%, P = 0.028). Para-aortic edema tended to be more frequent in patients with the iMCD-TAFRO group (83.3% vs. 37.5%, P = 0.062), while the absence of anterior mediastinal lesions tended to be more frequent in the iMCD-non-TAFRO group (16.7% vs. 62.5%, P = 0.062). These CT findings may have clinical implications for improving the accuracy and speed of iMCD diagnosis and differentiating iMCD-TAFRO from other subtypes.

kn-title=An effective surgical educational system in the era of robotic surgery: “Double-Surgeon Technique” in robotic gastrectomy for minimally invasive surgery
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Purpose Gastric cancer (GC) remains a major malignancy. Robotic gastrectomy (RG) has gained popularity due to various advantages. Despite those advantages, many hospitals lack the necessary equipment for RG and are still performing laparoscopic gastrectomy (LG) due to its established minimal invasiveness and safety.<br>
Methods This study assessed the effectiveness of the “Double-Surgeon Technique” (DST) for improving surgical education and proficiency with LG. The DST involves both a console-side surgeon and a patient-side surgeon working actively in RG, enhancing the skill acquisition needed for LG and potentially reducing surgical time. Assessment of this method was performed by surgical time, and cases were divided into three groups: first half (Phase 1: P1) and second half (P2) before the introduction of DST, and after the introduction of DST (P3).<br>
Results Two surgical trainees were trained using the DST. The learning curve in both reached a plateau in P2, but descended again in P3. For one trainee, surgical time for P3 was significantly reduced compared to P1 (p = 0.001) and P2 (p = 0.0027) despite the intervals between laparoscopic distal gastrectomy as the main surgeon in P3 being significantly longer than in P2 (p = 0.0094). Other surgical results in both trainees did not differ significantly. Further, no difference in induction phase results of RG were evident between surgeons and trainees with or without DST experience.<br>
Conclusion Surgical education using the DST could be effective in the current context of the need for RG and LG.

kn-title=Crystal Grain Rotation during Tensile Test of Polycrystalline Pure Titanium Thin Sheet Based on Surface Height and Crystal Orientation
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Thin sheets and wires of polycrystalline pure titanium are important materials for various devices used in electrical, mechanical, dental, and medical fields. Since pure titanium shows strong anisotropy in elastic and plastic deformation, and the individual grains comprising a polycrystalline body have different orientations and geometries, inhomogeneous deformation always occurs on the microscopic scale. This inhomogeneity is more significant in thin films than in bulk materials. It is therefore important to investigate the inhomogeneous deformation of pure titanium thin sheets to ensure the reliability of various titanium devices. In this study, thin-sheet specimens made of polycrystalline pure titanium were subjected to tensile testing. Inhomogeneous deformation was evaluated on the basis of two kinds of crystal grain rotations based on surface height and crystal orientation. The results under elastic and plastic tensile conditions were compared.

kn-title=Next frontier in photocatalytic hydrogen production through CdS heterojunctions
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Photocatalytic hydrogen (H₂) generation via solar-powered water splitting represents a sustainable solution to the global energy crisis. Cadmium sulfide (CdS) has emerged as a promising semiconductor photocatalyst due to its tunable bandgap, high physicochemical stability, cost-effectiveness, and widespread availability. This review systematically examines recent advancements in CdS-based heterojunctions, categorized into CdS-metal (Schottky), CdS-semiconductor (p-n, Z-scheme, S-scheme), and CdS-carbon heterojunctions. Various strategies employed to enhance photocatalytic efficiency and stability are discussed, including band structure engineering, surface modification, and the incorporation of crosslinked architectures. A critical evaluation of the underlying photocatalytic mechanisms highlights recent efforts to improve charge separation and photostability under operational conditions. This review highlights the challenges and opportunities in advancing CdS-based photocatalysts and provides a direction for future research. The insights presented aim to accelerate the development of efficient and durable CdS-based photocatalysts for sustainable H₂ production.

kn-title=Lymphadenectomy and chemotherapy are effective treatments for patients with 2023 international federation of gynecology and obstetrics stage IIC-high risk endometrial cancer in Japan
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Background In early-stage endometrial cancer (EC), the treatment of aggressive histological subtypes (endometrioid carcinoma grade 3, serous carcinoma, clear-cell carcinoma, undifferentiated carcinoma, mixed carcinoma, and carcinosarcoma) is controversial. We aimed to investigate the treatment of patients with International Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics (FIGO) stage IC and stage IIC EC according to the 2023 classification.<br>
Methods We retrospectively identified patients with FIGO 2023 stage IC, IIC-intermediate risk (IIC-I), and IIC-high risk (IIC-H) EC who underwent adjuvant therapy or observation after surgery at eight medical institutions from 2004 to 2023. Progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) were evaluated using Kaplan–Meier estimates and univariate and multivariate analyses.<br>
Results The PFS and OS were significantly worse in patients with FIGO 2023 stage IIC-H EC than in those with FIGO 2023 stage IIC-I EC (PFS: p = 0.008 and OS: p = 0.006). According to the FIGO 2023 stage IIC-H classification, lymphadenectomy and chemotherapy resulted in better prognoses regarding both PFS and OS (p < 0.001 for both) than other treatments. Our findings suggest that lymphadenectomy and chemotherapy effectively reduced vaginal stump and lymph node metastases in FIGO 2023 stage IIC-H EC (p < 0.001 and p = 0.008, respectively). Furthermore, in the multivariate analysis, not undergoing lymphadenectomy or chemotherapy were independent predictors of recurrence and poor prognoses in patients with FIGO 2023 stage IIC-H EC (p < 0.001 and p = 0.031, respectively).<br>
Conclusion Lymphadenectomy and chemotherapy resulted in better prognoses regarding both recurrence and survival in patients with FIGO 2023 stage IIC high-risk EC.

kn-title=Successful Treatment for Life Threatening Recurrent Non-traumatic Rectus Sheath Hematoma in a Case with Microscopic Polyangiitis with Rapidly Progressive Glomerulonephritis
en-subtitle=

kn-abstract=A 68-year-old woman was admitted to our hospital because of a rapid progression of renal dysfunction with positive myeloperoxidase antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibody and was diagnosed with rapidly progressive glomerulonephritis associated with microscopic polyangiitis (MPA). Severe right rectus sheath hematoma (RSH) bleeding from the inferior epigastric artery developed after starting hemodialysis, which required 4 transarterial embolizations due to recurrent bleeding. After additional treatment with methylprednisolone pulse therapy and rituximab, no rebleeding occurred. Although the giant hematoma reached the pelvis, it shrank spontaneously without any intervention. Nontraumatic RSH should therefore be considered when treating patients with multiple risk factors.

kn-title=Hemodynamic Assessment Using SPY Laser Fluorescence Imaging During Pancreatoduodenectomy with Common Hepatic Artery Resection
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Background. Pancreatectomies combined with arterial resection can be indicated for pancreatic cancer. In a pancreatectomy with arterial resection, intraoperative confirmation of blood flow through reconstructed vessels is crucial. This study highlights the usefulness of SPY laser fluorescence imaging during a pancreatoduodenectomy with common hepatic artery resection (PD-CHAR).<br>
Patient and Methods. A 55-year-old man with borderline resectable pancreatic head cancer underwent a PD-CHAR. After confirming tumor resectability, reconstruction of the CHA to the proper hepatic artery was performed. Subsequently, the superior mesenteric vein was reconstructed.<br>
Results. SPY laser fluorescence imaging demonstrated arterial blood perfusion to the liver through the reconstructed hepatic artery, followed by perfusion from the portal vein. The operation lasted 493 min, with an estimated blood loss of 400 mL. The postoperative course was uneventful with good arterial blood flow.<br>
Conclusion. The SPY Portable Handheld Imager could be valuable for visualizing blood flow in reconstructed vessels and assessing tissue perfusion during a pancreatectomy combined with vascular reconstruction.

kn-title=Rare internal hernia following pancreatoduodenectomy: A case report
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Introduction: Pancreatoduodenectomy (PD) is a complex procedure with a high morbidity rate. Internal hernia following PD is a rare but potentially life-threatening complication. Herein, we describe a rare case of internal hernia after PD.<br>
Presentation of case: A 76-year-old man who underwent subtotal stomach-preserving PD 7 years ago presented with vomiting and abdominal pain. Abdominal computed tomography revealed an internal hernia. Because conservative treatment failed, surgical intervention was performed. Intraoperative findings revealed efferent loop herniation in the space between the afferent loop near the Braun anastomosis and transverse mesocolon. The hernia was repositioned and the mesenteric defect was closed.<br>
Discussion: This is an extremely rare case of an internal hernia that developed 7 years after PD. As conservative management provides a little chance for improvement, precise diagnosis and prompt re-intervention are essential for the management of internal hernia. In this case, the hernial orifice developed in the space between the afferent and efferent loops and the transverse mesocolon. Internal hernia could be a differential diagnosis in patients with ileus after PD.<br>
Conclusion: This study provided a detailed description of an extremely rare case of internal hernia following PD. Therefore, internal hernias should be considered in patients undergoing PD.

kn-title=Robot-Assisted Pancreaticoduodenectomy Using the Anterior Superior Mesenteric Artery-First Approach for Pancreatic Cancer
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Background. The superior mesenteric artery (SMA)-first approach for pancreatic cancer (PC) is common surgical technique in pancreaticoduodenectomy. To date, few studies have reported SMA-first approach in robot-assisted pancreaticoduodenectomy (RPD). Herein, we present the anterior SMA-first approach for PC during RPD.<br>
Patient and Method. A 75-year-old man with resectable PC underwent RPD after neoadjuvant chemotherapy. As pancreatic head tumor contacted with the superior mesenteric vein (SMV), the anterior SMA approach was applied. After the mesenteric Kocher maneuver, the jejunum was divided and the left side of the SMA was dissected. Subsequently, the anterior plane of the SMA was dissected. Following the division of branches from the mesenteric vessels, the SMA was taped, and the circumferential dissection around the SMA was performed to detach the pancreatic neck from the SMA completely. Finally, the dissection between the SMV and the tumor was performed under vascular control to remove the specimen.<br>
Conclusions. The anterior SMA-first approach can be optional in patients with PC undergoing RPD. This unique approach allows for the circumferential dissection around the SMA during RPD.

kn-title=Evaluation of a novel central venous access port for direct catheter insertion without a peel-away sheath
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Purpose This study retrospectively evaluated the feasibility and safety of implanting a newly developed central venous access port (CV-port) that allows catheter insertion into a vein without the use of a peel-away sheath, with a focus on its potential to minimize risks associated with conventional implantation methods.<br>
Materials and methods All procedures were performed using a new device (P-U CelSite Port™ MS; Toray Medical, Tokyo, Japan) under ultrasound guidance. The primary endpoint was the implantation success rate. The secondary endpoints were the safety and risk factors for infection in the early postprocedural period (< 30 days).<br>
Results We assessed 523 CV-port implantations performed in a cumulative total of 523 patients (240 men and 283 women; mean age, 61.6 ± 13.1 years; range, 18–85 years). All implantations were successfully performed using an inner guide tube and over-the-wire technique through 522 internal jugular veins and one subclavian vein. The mean procedural time was 33.2 ± 10.9 min (range 15–112 min). Air embolism, rupture/perforation of the superior vena cava, or hemothorax did not occur during catheter insertion. Eleven (2.1%) intraprocedural complications occurred, including Grade I arrhythmia (n = 8) and subcutaneous bleeding (n = 1), Grade II arrhythmia (n = 1), and Grade IIIa pneumothorax (n = 1). Furthermore, 496 patients were followed up for ≥ 30 days. Six early postprocedural complications were encountered (1.1%), including Grade IIIa infection (n = 4), catheter occlusion (n = 1), and skin necrosis due to subcutaneous leakage of trabectedin (n = 1). These six CV-ports were withdrawn, and no significant risk factors for infection in the early postprocedural period were identified.<br>
Conclusion The implantation of this CV-port device demonstrated comparable success and complication rates to conventional devices, with the added potential benefit of eliminating complications associated with the use of a peel-away sheath.

kn-title=Neurotransmitter recognition by human vesicular monoamine transporter 2
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Human vesicular monoamine transporter 2 (VMAT2), a member of the SLC18 family, plays a crucial role in regulating neurotransmitters in the brain by facilitating their uptake and storage within vesicles, preparing them for exocytotic release. Because of its central role in neurotransmitter signalling and neuroprotection, VMAT2 is a target for neurodegenerative diseases and movement disorders, with its inhibitor being used as therapeutics. Despite the importance of VMAT2 in pharmacophysiology, the molecular basis of VMAT2-mediated neurotransmitter transport and its inhibition remains unclear. Here we show the cryo-electron microscopy structure of VMAT2 in the substrate-free state, in complex with the neurotransmitter dopamine, and in complex with the inhibitor tetrabenazine. In addition to these structural determinations, monoamine uptake assays, mutational studies, and pKa value predictions were performed to characterize the dynamic changes in VMAT2 structure. These results provide a structural basis for understanding VMAT2-mediated vesicular transport of neurotransmitters and a platform for modulation of current inhibitor design.

en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Aims: Artificial intelligence is increasingly used in the medical field. We assessed the accuracy and reproducibility of responses by ChatGPT to clinical questions (CQs) in the Japan Atherosclerosis Society Guidelines for Prevention Atherosclerotic Cardiovascular Diseases 2022 (JAS Guidelines 2022).<br>
Methods: In June 2024, we assessed responses by ChatGPT (version 3.5) to CQs, including background questions (BQs) and foreground questions (FQs). Accuracy was assessed independently by three researchers using six-point Likert scales ranging from 1 (“completely incorrect”) to 6 (“completely correct”) by evaluating responses to CQs in Japanese or translated into English. For reproducibility assessment, responses to each CQ asked five times separately in a new chat were scored using six-point Likert scales, and Fleiss kappa coefficients were calculated.<br>
Results: The median (25th–75th percentile) score for ChatGPT’s responses to BQs and FQs was 4 (3–5) and 5 (5–6) for Japanese CQs and 5 (3–6) and 6 (5–6) for English CQs, respectively. Response scores were higher for FQs than those for BQs (P values ＜0.001 for Japanese and English). Similar response accuracy levels were observed between Japanese and English CQs (P value 0.139 for BQs and 0.586 for FQs). Kappa coefficients for reproducibility were 0.76 for BQs and 0.90 for FQs.<br>
Conclusions: ChatGPT showed high accuracy and reproducibility in responding to JAS Guidelines 2022 CQs, especially FQs. While ChatGPT primarily reflects existing guidelines, its strength could lie in rapidly organizing and presenting relevant information, thus supporting instant and more efficient guideline interpretation and aiding in medical decision-making.

en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=N-Phenylphenothiazine derivatives extended with various aryl groups were designed and synthesized. These derivatives have bent conformation in crystal and exhibit high solubility. Radical cations obtained by one-electron oxidation of these derivatives gave stable radical cations in solution and showed absorption in the near-infrared region. A radical cation was isolated as a stable salt, which exhibited heat resistance up to around 200 °C. A design strategy for radical cation-based near-infrared absorbing dyes, which are easily oxidized and stable not only as a solution but in solid form, is described.

kn-title=NCF-1 plays a pivotal role in the survival of adenocarcinoma cells of pancreatic and gastric origins
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Reactive oxygen species (ROS) play a pivotal biological role in cells, with ROS function differing depending on cellular conditions and the extracellular environment. Notably, ROS act as cytotoxic factors to eliminate infectious pathogens or promote cell death under cellular stress, while also facilitating cell growth (via ROS-sensing pathways) by modifying gene expression. Among ROS-related genes, neutrophil cytosolic factor-1 (NCF-1; p47phox) was identified as a ROS generator in neutrophils. This product is a subunit of a cytosolic NADPH oxidase complex activated in response to pathogens such as bacteria and viruses. NCF-1 has been examined primarily in terms of ROS-production pathways in macrophages and neutrophils; however, the expression of this protein and its biological role in cancer cells remain unclear. Here, we report expression of NCF-1 in pancreatic and gastric cancers, and demonstrate its biological significance in these tumor cells. Abundant expression of NCF-1 was observed in pancreatic adenocarcinoma (PDAC) lines and in patient tissues, as well as in gastric adenocarcinomas. Accumulation of the protein was also detected in the invasive/metastatic foci of these tumors. Unexpectedly, BxPC-3 underwent apoptotic cell death when transfected with a small interfering RNA (siRNA) specific to NCF-1, whereas the cells treated with a control siRNA proliferated in a time-dependent manner. A similar phenomenon was observed in HSC-58, a poorly differentiated gastric adenocarcinoma line. Consequently, the tumor cells highly expressing NCF-1 obtained coincident accumulation of ROS and reduced glutathione (GSH) with expression of glutathione peroxidase 4 (GPX4), a quencher involved in ferroptosis. Unlike the conventional role of ROS as a representative cytotoxic factor, these findings suggest that NCF-1-mediated ROS generation may be required for expansive growth of PDAC and gastric cancers.

kn-title=Long‐term outcomes of endoscopic resection of superficial esophageal squamous cell carcinoma in late‐elderly patients
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Background and Aim: As the population ages, the number of elderly patients with superficial esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) is increasing. We aimed to clarify the indications for endoscopic resection (ER) in late-elderly patients with ESCC in terms of life expectancy.<br>
Methods: Patients aged ≥75 years who underwent ER for ESCC at our institution from January 2005 to December 2018 were enrolled. Clinical data, including the Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group performance status, American Society of Anesthesiologists physical status (ASA-PS), Charlson comorbidity index, and prognostic nutritional index (PNI), were collected at the time of ER. The main outcome measure was overall survival (OS).<br>
Results: Two hundred eight consecutive patients were enrolled. The patients' median age was 78 years (range, 75–89 years). The 5-year follow-up rate was 88.5% (median follow-up period, 6.6 years). The 5-year OS rate was 79.2% (95% confidence interval [CI], 72.2–84.8), and 5-year net survival standardized for age, sex, and calendar year was 1.04 (95% CI, 0.98–1.09). In the multivariate analysis, an ASA-PS of 3 (hazard ratio, 2.45; 95% CI, 1.16–5.17) and PNI of <44.0 (hazard ratio, 2.73; 95% CI, 1.38–5.40) were independent prognostic factors. When neither of these factors was met, the 5-year OS rate was 87.8% (95% CI, 80.0–92.9), and 5-year net survival was 1.08 (95% CI, 1.02–1.14).<br>
Conclusions: ER for ESCC in late-elderly patients may improve life expectancy. ER is recommended in patients with a good ASA-PS and PNI.

kn-title=Gastric Mucosa-associated Lymphoid Tissue Lymphoma That Relapsed after 11 Years Subsequent to Achieving Complete Remission
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=A 38-year-old Japanese man was diagnosed with extranodal marginal zone lymphoma of the mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue in the stomach (gastric MALT lymphoma). Fluorescence in situ hybridization analysis revealed the absence of t (11;18) (q21;q21) translocation but the presence of extra copies of MALT1, indicating tetrasomy 18. Helicobacter pylori eradication led to complete remission (CR). However, the gastric MALT lymphoma relapsed after 11 years old. This case underscores the need for long-term observation (>10 years) of patients with gastric MALT lymphoma. Further investigation is warranted to elucidate the correlation between trisomy/tetrasomy 18 and the recurrence propensity.

en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=A Japanese woman presented with gastric antral ulcers accompanied by erosion and edema, demonstrating a chronic pattern of improvement and recurrence for more than six years. The patient had no relevant treatment history, and Helicobacter pylori infection was ruled out. Other potential etiologies contributing to gastric ulcers were eliminated on the basis of endoscopic biopsy and blood laboratory findings. Consequently, the patient was diagnosed with idiopathic gastric antral ulcer. This disease is often overlooked, and the chronological endoscopic images provided in this report can be used as a reference.

kn-title=Alcohol consumption, multiple Lugol‐voiding lesions, and field cancerization
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=The development of multiple squamous cell carcinomas (SCC) in the upper aerodigestive tract, which includes the oral cavity, pharynx, larynx, and esophagus, is explained by field cancerization and is associated with alcohol consumption and cigarette smoking. We reviewed the association between alcohol consumption, multiple Lugol-voiding lesions, and field cancerization, mainly based on the Japan Esophageal Cohort study. The Japan Esophageal Cohort study is a prospective cohort study that enrolled patients with esophageal SCC after endoscopic resection. Enrolled patients received surveillance by gastrointestinal endoscopy every 6 months and surveillance by an otolaryngologist every 12 months. The Japan Esophageal Cohort study showed that esophageal SCC and head and neck SCC that developed after endoscopic resection for esophageal SCC were associated with genetic polymorphisms related to alcohol metabolism. They were also associated with Lugol-voiding lesions grade in the background esophageal mucosa, the score of the health risk appraisal model for predicting the risk of esophageal SCC, macrocytosis, and score on alcohol use disorders identification test. The standardized incidence ratio of head and neck SCC in patients with esophageal SCC after endoscopic resection was extremely high compared to the general population. Drinking and smoking cessation is strongly recommended to reduce the risk of metachronous esophageal SCC after treatment of esophageal SCC. Risk factors for field cancerization provide opportunities for early diagnosis and minimally invasive treatment. Lifestyle guidance of alcohol consumption and cigarette smoking for esophageal precancerous conditions, which are endoscopically visualized as multiple Lugol-voiding lesions, may play a pivotal role in decreasing the incidence and mortality of esophageal SCC.

kn-title=Impact of amyloid and tau positivity on longitudinal brain atrophy in cognitively normal individuals
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Background Individuals on the preclinical Alzheimer's continuum, particularly those with both amyloid and tau positivity (A + T +), display a rapid cognitive decline and elevated disease progression risk. However, limited studies exist on brain atrophy trajectories within this continuum over extended periods.<br>
Methods This study involved 367 ADNI participants grouped based on combinations of amyloid and tau statuses determined through cerebrospinal fluid tests. Using longitudinal MRI scans, brain atrophy was determined according to the whole brain, lateral ventricle, and hippocampal volumes and cortical thickness in AD-signature regions. Cognitive performance was evaluated with the Preclinical Alzheimer's Cognitive Composite (PACC). A generalized linear mixed-effects model was used to examine group × time interactions for these measures. In addition, progression risks to mild cognitive impairment (MCI) or dementia were compared among the groups using Cox proportional hazards models.<br>
Results A total of 367 participants (48 A + T + , 86 A + T − , 63 A − T + , and 170 A − T − ; mean age 73.8 years, mean follow-up 5.1 years, and 47.4% men) were included. For the lateral ventricle and PACC score, the A + T − and A + T + groups demonstrated statistically significantly greater volume expansion and cognitive decline over time than the A − T − group (lateral ventricle: β = 0.757 cm3/year [95% confidence interval 0.463 to 1.050], P < .001 for A + T − , and β = 0.889 cm3/year [0.523 to 1.255], P < .001 for A + T + ; PACC: β =  − 0.19 /year [− 0.36 to − 0.02], P = .029 for A + T − , and β =  − 0.59 /year [− 0.80 to − 0.37], P < .001 for A + T +). Notably, the A + T + group exhibited additional brain atrophy including the whole brain (β =  − 2.782 cm3/year [− 4.060 to − 1.504], P < .001), hippocampus (β =  − 0.057 cm3/year [− 0.085 to − 0.029], P < .001), and AD-signature regions (β =  − 0.02 mm/year [− 0.03 to − 0.01], P < .001). Cox proportional hazards models suggested an increased risk of progressing to MCI or dementia in the A + T + group versus the A − T − group (adjusted hazard ratio = 3.35 [1.76 to 6.39]).<br>
Conclusions In cognitively normal individuals, A + T + compounds brain atrophy and cognitive deterioration, amplifying the likelihood of disease progression. Therapeutic interventions targeting A + T + individuals could be pivotal in curbing brain atrophy, cognitive decline, and disease progression.

kn-abstract=OBJECTIVES: Histidine-rich glycoprotein has been reported as an anti-inflammatory glycoprotein that inhibits acute lung injury in mice with sepsis and as a prognostic biomarker in patients with sepsis. We investigated the relationship between plasma concentrations of histidine-rich glycoprotein and the risk of occurrence of primary graft dysfunction.<br>
METHODS: According to the primary graft dysfunction grade at post-transplant 72 h, patients who underwent lung transplantation were divided into three groups: non-primary graft dysfunction group (grade 0–1), moderate primary graft dysfunction group (grade 2), and severe primary graft dysfunction group (grade 3). The plasma concentrations of histidine-rich glycoprotein measured daily during the first post-transplant 7 days were compared among the three groups. Appropriate cutoff values of the concentrations were set for survival analyses after lung transplantation.<br>
RESULTS: A total of 68 patients were included. The plasma histidine-rich glycoprotein concentration at post-transplant 72 h was significantly lower in the severe primary graft dysfunction group (n = 7) than in the other two groups [non-primary graft dysfunction group (n = 43), P = 0.042; moderate primary graft dysfunction group (n = 18), P = 0.040]. Patients with plasma histidine-rich glycoprotein concentration ≥34.4 µg/ml at post-transplant 72 h had significantly better chronic lung allograft dysfunction-free survival (P = 0.012) and overall survival (P = 0.037) than those with the concentration <34.4 µg/ml.<br>
CONCLUSIONS: Plasma histidine-rich glycoprotein concentrations at post-transplant 72 h might be associated with the risk of development of primary graft dysfunction.

kn-title=Association Between Early Mobilization and Postoperative Pneumonia Following Robot-assisted Minimally Invasive Esophagectomy in Patients with Thoracic Esophageal Squamous Cell Carcinoma
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Objective: The objective of this study was to confirm that early mobilization (EM) could reduce pneumonia in patients undergoing robot-assisted minimally invasive esophagectomy (RAMIE) for thoracic esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (TESCC). Methods: Postoperative pneumonia was defined as physician-diagnosed pneumonia using the Esophagectomy Complications Consensus Group definition of pneumonia with a Clavien–Dindo classification grade II–V on postoperative day (POD) 3–5. EM was defined as achieving an ICU Mobility Scale (IMS) ≥7 by POD 2. Patients were divided into EM (n = 36) and non-EM (n = 35) groups. Barriers to EM included pain, orthostatic intolerance (OI), and orthostatic hypotension. Results: The overall incidence of postoperative pneumonia was 12.7%, with a significant difference between the EM (2.8%) and non-EM (22.9%) groups (P = 0.014). The odds ratio was 0.098 in the EM group compared to the non-EM group. A significant difference was found between the two groups in terms of the barriers to EM at POD 2 only for OI, with a higher incidence in the non-EM group. Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that patients with OI were more likely to be unable to achieve EM than those without OI (odds ratio, 7.030; P = 0.006). Conclusion: EM within POD 2 may reduce the incidence of postoperative pneumonia in patients undergoing RAMIE for TESCC. Furthermore, it was suggested that OI can have a negative impact on the EM after RAMIE.

kn-title=Medial meniscus posterior root tears with advanced osteoarthritis or subchondral insufficiency fracture are good indications for unicompartmental knee arthroplasty at a minimum 2-year follow-up
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Introduction The outcomes of unicompartmental knee arthroplasty (UKA) in the presence and absence of medial meniscus posterior root tears (MMPRTs) have not been compared. This study compared the characteristics and clinical outcomes of patients undergoing UKA with and without MMPRTs.<br>
Materials and methods This study analyzed 68 patients. The presence or absence of MMPRTs was evaluated using preoperative magnetic resonance imaging. Patient characteristics, clinical scores before surgery and at the final evaluation, and imaging findings were compared between patients with and without MMPRTs. Multiple regression analysis was conducted on postoperative visual analog scale (VAS)-pain scores.<br>
Results MMPRTs were present in 64.7% (44/68) of patients. Patients with MMPRTs were significantly younger (67.8 ± 8.2 vs. 75.0 ± 7.1 years, p < 0.001) and had a shorter duration from the development of symptoms to the time of surgery than those without (6.8 ± 8.4 vs. 36.1 ± 38.9 months, p < 0.001). Component placement or lower-limb alignment did not significantly differ between the groups. Preoperative clinical scores were not significantly different between the groups; however, patients with MMPRTs showed significantly better postoperative VAS-pain scores than those without (10.0 ± 9.0 vs. 28.2 ± 26.0 points, p = 0.026). Multiple regression analysis of postoperative VAS-pain scores revealed the significant effect of duration from the development of symptoms to the time of surgery (p = 0.038).<br>
Conclusions Patients undergoing UKA with MMPRTs were younger with less radiographic osteoarthritic changes compared to those without MMPRTs, and their postoperative VAS-pain scores were significantly superior. The duration from the development of symptoms to the time of surgery significantly influenced postoperative pain in patients undergoing UKA.

kn-title=Association between lower limb muscle strength and musculoskeletal ambulation disability symptom complex in patients with medial meniscus posterior root tears
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Purpose In this study, we aimed to evaluate the changes in and the relationship between lower limb muscle strength and physical function before and after medial meniscus posterior root (MMPR) repair.<br>
Methods Thirty-three patients who underwent MMPR repair were evaluated. Pain was evaluated with the numerical rating scale (NRS), and knee flexor/extensor muscle strength was assessed using a handheld dynamometer. Physical function was evaluated using a timed up and go (TUG) test. The NRS, knee flexor/extensor muscle strength, and TUG were compared preoperatively and 1 year postoperatively using the Wilcoxon signed-rank test. The correlation of patient characteristics, NRS score, knee flexor/extensor muscle strength, and preoperative TUG with the postoperative TUG was analyzed using Spearman’s correlation coefficient.<br>
Results NRS (3.5 ± 2.1 to 0.1 ± 0.5 points), knee flexor strength (111.9 ± 50.2 to 146.7 ± 51.5 Nm), knee extensor strength (181.9 ± 92.8 to 256.9 ± 107.1 Nm), and TUG (12.3 ± 5.7 to 9.2 ± 2.2 s) all improved significantly from preoperatively to 1 year postoperatively (p < 0.001). The postoperative TUG was negatively correlated with the preoperative TUG (r = 0.578, p < 0.001), preoperative knee flexor muscle strength (r = − 0.355, p = 0.042), preoperative knee extensor muscle strength (r = − 0.437, p = 0.010), and postoperative knee extensor muscle strength (r = − 0.478, p = 0.004).<br>
Conclusion In patients undergoing MMPR repair, surgery and rehabilitation significantly improve lower limb muscle strength and physical function. There was a significant correlation between lower limb muscle strength and TUG, and further strengthening of the lower limb muscles from the preoperative level is desirable to improve patients’ physical function further.<br>

kn-title=Transtibial pullout repair improved short-term clinical outcomes in patients with oblique medial meniscus posterior root tear comparable to radial root tear
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Purpose Medial meniscus (MM) posterior root tears (PRT) can lead to excessive knee loading and unsatisfactory clinical outcomes after non-operative treatment or meniscectomy. Although favourable clinical outcomes after MM posterior root (PR) repair have been reported, no study has specifically investigated the outcomes of different types of MMPRT. This study aimed to compare the clinical outcomes of patients with complete radial and oblique MMPRT following MMPR repair.<br>
Methods Forty patients who had undergone MMPR repair were retrospectively investigated. Patients with type 2 (20 knees) and 4 MMPRT (20 knees) were included in this study. The MMPRT type was classified according to the LaPrade classification. Plain radiographs, magnetic resonance images, arthroscopic findings, and pre- and postoperative clinical outcomes were evaluated.<br>
Results At 1 year postoperatively, clinical outcomes notably improved in patients with type 2 and 4 MMPRT. No significant differences were observed in any of the evaluations between these patients, both before and after the surgery.<br>
Conclusion Patients with type 2 and type 4 MMPRT exhibited significantly improved clinical outcomes. MMPR repair is beneficial in treating type 2 and type 4 MMPRT.<br>

He had a small ventricular septal defect (VSD) that had closed naturally. Echocardiography revealed a dilated main PA, mild pulmonary regurgitation and no VSD. Computed tomography confirmed the dilation of the main PA (66.7×47.8 mm), right PA (37.1×32.9 mm), and left PA (36.7×34.0 mm). The patient underwent pulmonary artery replacement using a prosthetic vascular graft. A quadricuspid pulmonary valve was identified intraoperatively. Early surgical intervention could help to prevent rupture and dissection of PA aneurysms.

kn-title=Effectiveness of Pallidal Stimulation for Dystonic Storm and Subsequent Ssevere Posterior Reversible Encephalopathy Syndrome in a Patient with GNAO1 Variant
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=GNAO1 variant affects primarily the brain and neurodevelopment, leading to a range of motor disorders including seizures beginning in infancy and involuntary movements such as dyskinesia and dystonia. Our patient, a 15-year-old Japanese female, began exhibiting involuntary movements at age 4. A de novo missense mutation (NM_020988.3: c.228C>G, NP_066268.1: p.(Asn76Lys)) in the GNAO1 gene was identified when the patient was 15, and during the same year she developed influenza pneumonia, accompanied by dystonic storm. She required intensive care with mechanical ventilation and underwent a tracheostomy. She also developed posterior reversible encephalopathy syndrome. Globus pallidal stimulation was administered, leading to an improvement in the dystonic storm. Early consideration of globus pallidal stimulation is recommended when treating difficult-to-manage dystonic storms.

kn-title=Parieto-Occipital Disconnection for Drug-Resistant Parieto-Occipital Lobe Epilepsy: A Case Report and Surgical Technique
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=We report a case of drug-resistant parieto-occipital lobe epilepsy successfully treated with parieto-occipital disconnection (POD). An 18-year-old left-handed female, who had undergone surgery for an acute subdural hematoma at 10 months of age, developed drug-resistant epilepsy at age 15. Despite antiepileptic drug treatment, her seizures remained uncontrolled, and at age 18 she was referred to our hospital for evaluation. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) revealed atrophy in the left occipital and parietal lobes. Ictal electroencephalography (EEG) confirmed occipital onset of seizures without temporal lobe involvement. She had pre-existing homonymous hemianopsia. POD surgery was performed, carefully preserving the temporal lobe structures. Postoperatively, she experienced transient right-sided paresis, which fully resolved, and achieved complete seizure control at 3 years without memory loss. This case demonstrates that POD, a rare surgical approach, is a viable option for parieto-occipital lobe epilepsy, effectively controlling seizures while minimizing functional impairment in the absence of temporal lobe involvement.

kn-title=Femoral and Global Femoral Offset, but not Anteroposterior Offset, to Improve Postoperative Outcomes Following Total Hip Arthroplasty: Considerations Independent of the Contralateral Side
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=The global femoral offset (the sum of the acetabular and femoral offsets) influences outcomes after total hip arthroplasty (THA). The optimal offset using plain radiographs has been reported, but internal and external rotations of the hip affect the offset value, producing unclear results when the nonsurgical side is not intact. We investigated the relationship between a functional hip score, i.e., the Harris Hip Score (HHS) and its effect on the post-THA anteroposterior and lateral offsets, and we sought to identify the optimal offset value. The cases of 158 patients with hemilateral hip osteoarthritis who underwent THA at a single center were retrospectively analyzed in this cross-sectional study. Three-dimensional pelvic and femoral models generated from computed tomography were used to examine several parameters, and the results revealed a significant binomial correlation among the modified HHS and femoral and global femoral offsets, with maximum values of 21.3 mm and 40 mm/100 cm body height, respectively. Pelvic and femoral parameters were measured and evaluated via alignment with a specific coordinate system. Our findings indicate that preoperative planning using these parameters may improve postoperative hip function, even when the nonoperative side is unsuitable for use as a reference, as in bilateral hip osteoarthritis cases.

en-subtitle=

en-abstract=
kn-abstract=This study investigated the risk factors for bone fragility and perioperative periprosthetic femoral stem fractures in patients undergoing hip arthroplasty for femoral neck fractures. The records of 215 patients (42 male, 173 female; mean age, 84.4 years) were analyzed to assess correlations among periprosthetic fracture rates and sex, age, body mass index (BMI), Dorr classification, femoral stem fixation type (cemented/cementless), and bone mineral density (BMD) of the contralateral proximal femur. The overall prevalence of perioperative periprosthetic fractures was 4.7%. All patients with periprosthetic fractures were female, and all but one were ≥ 80 years of age. Fracture rates were higher in patients with lower BMI, although this difference was not significant. The fracture rates were 0%, 4.7%, and 7.9% for Dorr types A, B, and C, respectively, and 0% and 5.3% for patients who received cemented and cementless stems, respectively. The findings indicated that female patients, those of advanced age, those with lower BMI, and those with Dorr type C had lower BMDs. Although BMD was significantly lower in patients who received cemented stems compared to those who received cementless stems, no fractures were observed in the former group, suggesting that the use of cemented stems is safe for this high-risk population.

en-abstract=
kn-abstract=We investigated the work productivity levels of employed cancer survivors and non-cancer-survivor workers by conducting a cross-sectional study in Japan between February and March 2019, using an online survey. A total of 561 employed individuals aged 20-64 years were analyzed. Work productivity was assessed using the Work Productivity and Activity Impairment-General Health questionnaire which evaluates absenteeism, presenteeism, and overall work productivity loss. The questionnaire responses demonstrated that the cancer survivors within 1 year of diagnosis had significantly higher absenteeism compared to the non-cancer workers (p=0.048). Although presenteeism and overall work productivity loss were also higher in the non-cancer-survivor group, the differences were not significant. Cancer survivors within 1 year of diagnosis exhibited higher absenteeism, but their work productivity appeared to recover to levels comparable to those of the non-cancer workers over time. These findings may contribute to workplace policies supporting cancer survivors’ return to work.

kn-title=Bloodstream Infections Caused by Gram-Negative Bacteria in Geriatric Patients: Epidemiology, Antimicrobial Resistance and The Factors Affecting Mortality
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Bloodstream infections (BSIs) are an important cause of morbidity and mortality in geriatric patients. We retrospectively analyzed the cases of geriatric patients who developed BSIs due to gram-negative bacteria in order to evaluate the epidemiology, antimicrobial resistance, and the factors affecting mortality. The cases of 110 patients aged ≥ 65 years admitted to our hospital between January 1, 2017, and December 31, 2022 were assessed; 70 (63.6%) of the BSIs were healthcare-associated BSIs. The urinary system was the most common detectable source of infection at 43.6%. The most frequently isolated bacteria were Escherichia coli, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, and Klebsiella pneumoniae, in that order. Carbapenem resistance was detected in 17 patients (15.5%), and extended-spectrum beta-lactamase (ESBL) production from Enterobacterales family members was detected in 37 (51.4%) patients. Multivariate analysis revealed that (i) the probability of mortality in the patients with total bilirubin was increased by approx. sixfold and (ii) the likelihood of mortality for those with a Pitt bacteremia score (PBS) ≥ 4 points was approx. 17 times higher. PBS and simplified qPitt scores can help predict mortality and manage geriatric patients. There is a significant increase in mortality among patients with procalcitonin (PCT) levels at ≥ 2 nm/ml.

kn-title=Organ Donation after Extracorporeal Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation: Clinical and Ethical Perspectives
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Extracorporeal cardiopulmonary resuscitation (ECPR) has evolved into a life-saving therapy for select cardiac arrest patients, yet a growing body of evidence suggests it also holds promise as a bridge to organ donation in non-survivors. This review explores the clinical outcomes, ethical complexities, and evolving policies surrounding organ donation after ECPR. We summarize recent international and Japanese data demonstrating favorable graft function from ECPR donors, with the exception of lung transplantation. The ethical challenges — particularly those involving brain death determination on extracorporeal membrane oxygenation and adherence to the dead donor rule — are discussed in the context of Japan’s recent regulatory reforms. Additionally, we highlight the importance of structured end-of-life communication through multidisciplinary team meetings in facilitating ethically sound transitions from rescue efforts to donation pathways. Moving forward, improvements in donor management, standardized legal frameworks, and public and professional education are essential to optimizing the life-saving and life-giving potential of ECPR.

kn-title=Quadriceps muscle strength of the affected limb in medial meniscus posterior root tears is negatively correlated with the progression of postoperative medial joint space narrowing
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Purpose: The effect of quadriceps muscle strength on medial joint space (MJS) narrowing after repair for medial meniscus (MM) posterior root tears (MMPRTs) has not yet been determined. This study aimed to evaluate the effect of preoperative and postoperative quadriceps muscle strength on the change in MJS (ΔMJS) in MMPRTs.<br>
Methods: Thirty patients who underwent pullout repair for MMPRTs were retrospectively evaluated. The MJS width using fixed-flexion view radiographs, MM extrusion (MME) using magnetic resonance imaging, quadriceps muscle strength using the Locomo Scan-II and clinical scores were measured and compared preoperatively and 1 year postoperatively. Correlations between the ΔMJS, change in MME (ΔMME), and preoperative and postoperative quadriceps muscle strength were evaluated using Spearman's rank correlation coefficient.<br>
Results: MJS narrowing and MME progressed significantly at 1 year postoperatively (p < 0.001). Quadriceps muscle strength in MMPRT knees and all clinical scores significantly improved at 1 year postoperatively (p < 0.001). ΔMJS and ΔMME showed a significant positive correlation (0.50 ± 0.70 and 1.22 ± 0.92 mm, respectively; r = 0.516, p = 0.004). Both preoperative and postoperative quadriceps muscle strength in MMPRT knees showed significant negative correlations with ΔMJS (preoperative: r = −0.529, p = 0.003; postoperative: r = −0.477, p = 0.008) and ΔMME (preoperative: r = −0.431, p = 0.018; postoperative: r = −0.443, p = 0.014).<br>
Conclusions: In pullout repair for MMPRTs, preoperative and postoperative quadriceps muscle strength in MMPRT knees was negatively correlated with the progression of MJS narrowing and MME. Rehabilitation with a focus on quadriceps muscle strengthening, including preoperative rehabilitation, may delay knee-osteoarthritis progression after pullout repair for MMPRTs.<br>
Level of Evidence: Level IV.

kn-title=Lyme neuroborreliosis in Japan: Borrelia burgdorferi sensu lato as a cause of meningitis of previously undetermined etiology in hospitalized patients outside of the island of Hokkaido, 2010–2021
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Background and Purpose: Clinical manifestations of Lyme borreliosis (LB), caused by Borrelia burgdorferi sensu lato (Bbsl), include erythema migrans, Lyme neuroborreliosis (LNB), carditis, and arthritis. LB is a notifiable disease in Japan with <30 surveillance-reported LB cases annually, predominately from Hokkaido Prefecture. However, LB, including LNB, may be under-diagnosed in Japan since diagnostic tests are not readily available. We sought to determine if LNB could be a cause of previously undiagnosed encephalitis or meningitis in Japan.<br>
Methods: Investigators at 15 hospitals in 10 prefectures throughout Japan retrieved serum and/or cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) samples collected in 2010–2021 from 517 patients hospitalized with encephalitis or meningitis which had an etiology that had not been determined. Samples were tested for Bbsl-specific antibodies using ELISA and Western blot tests. In alignment with the European Union LNB case definition, a confirmed LNB case had CSF pleocytosis and intrathecal production of Bbsl-specific antibodies and a probable LNB case had a CSF sample with pleocytosis and Bbsl-specific antibodies.<br>
Results: LNB was identified in three hospitalized patients with meningitis of previously undetermined etiology: a male resident of Aomori Prefecture was a confirmed LNB case, and two female residents of Oita Prefecture were probable LNB cases. None of the patients with confirmed or probable LNB had traveled in the month prior to symptom onset and none had samples previously tested for LB.<br>
Conclusion: The identification of previously undiagnosed LNB cases indicates a need for enhanced disease awareness in Japan, particularly beyond Hokkaido Island, and more readily available LB diagnostic testing.

kn-title=Hypotheses of pathophysiological mechanisms in epileptic encephalopathies: A review
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Introduction: Epileptic encephalopathy (EE) is a serious clinical issue that manifests as part of developmental and epileptic encephalopathy (DEE), particularly in childhood epilepsy. In EE, neurocognitive functions and behavior are impaired by intense epileptiform electroencephalogram (EEG) activity. Hypotheses of pathophysiological mechanisms behind EE are reviewed to contribute to an effective solution for EE.<br>
Review: Current hypotheses are as follows: 1) neuronal dysfunction based on genetic abnormalities that may affect neurocognitive functions and epilepsy separately; 2) impairment of synaptic homeostasis during sleep that may be responsible for DEE/EE with spike-and-wave activation in sleep; 3) abnormal subcortical regulation of the cerebral cortex; 4) abnormal cortical metabolism and hemodynamics with impairment of the neural network including default mode network; 5) neurotransmitter imbalance and disordered neural excitability; 6) the effects of neuroinflammation that may be caused by epileptic seizures and in turn aggravate epileptogenesis; 7) the interaction between physiological and pathological high-frequency EEG activity; etc. The causal relationship between epileptiform EEG activity and neurocognitive dysfunctions is small in DEE based on genetic abnormalities and it is largely unestablished in the other hypothetical mechanisms.<br>
Conclusion: We have not yet found answers to the question of whether the single-central or multiple derangements are present and what seizures and intense epileptiform EEG abnormalities mean in EE. We need to continue our best efforts in both aspects to elucidate the pathophysiological mechanisms of DEE/EE and further develop epilepsy treatment and precision medicine.

kn-title=Genetic and functional analyses of SPTLC1 in juvenile amyotrophic lateral sclerosis
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Introduction Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a progressive neurodegenerative disorder of the motor system. Pathogenic variants in SPTLC1, encoding a subunit of serine palmitoyltransferase, cause hereditary sensory and autonomic neuropathy type 1 (HSAN1), and have recently been associated with juvenile ALS. SPTLC1 variants associated with ALS cause elevated levels of sphinganines and ceramides. Reports on ALS associated with SPTLC1 remain limited. This study aimed to investigate the frequency of SPTLC1 variants in ALS and relevant clinical characteristics.<br>
Methods We analyzed whole-exome and whole-genome sequence data from 40 probands with familial ALS and 413 patients with sporadic ALS without previously identified causative variants. Reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) analysis and droplet digital PCR (ddPCR) were used to assess splicing and mosaicism, respectively. Plasma sphingolipid levels were quantified to analyze biochemical consequences.<br>
Results The heterozygous c.58G>A, p.Ala20Thr variant was identified in a 21-year-old Japanese female patient presenting with symmetric weakness which slowly progressed over 15 years. RT-PCR analysis showed no splice defects. Plasma sphingolipid levels in the patient were significantly increased compared to her asymptomatic parents. ddPCR revealed that the asymptomatic father harbored a mosaic variant with 17% relative mutant allele abundance in peripheral blood leukocytes.<br>
Conclusions We identified a pathogenic c.58G>A, p.Ala20Thr SPTLC1 variant in a patient with juvenile ALS, likely inherited from an asymptomatic parent with mosaicism. Lipid analysis results are consistent with previous findings on SPTLC1-associated ALS. Further studies are necessary to determine the clinical effect of mosaic variants of SPTLC1.

kn-title=Subjective global assessment for nutritional screening and its impact on surgical outcomes: A prospective study in older patients with colorectal cancer
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Purpose Our perioperative management center provides preoperative intervention and functional and nutritional assessments for colorectal cancer patients aged over 75 years. This study evaluated the associations of preoperative nutritional status with postoperative outcomes and prognosis in colorectal cancer patients aged 75 years or older.<br>
Methods This was a prospective, observational study of 71 colorectal cancer patients aged 75 years or older who underwent surgery between July 2020 and September 2022. The Subjective Global Assessment (SGA) was evaluated as a nutritional index. The patients were classified into three groups: SGA-A (well nourished), B (moderately malnourished), and C (severely malnourished), and the correlations with postoperative outcomes and prognosis were examined.<br>
Results The median age of the 71 patients (34 males, 37 females) was 78 (75–92) years, and their median body mass index (BMI) was 22.3 (13.4–31.9) kg/m2. Forty-eight patients had colon cancer, and 23 had rectal cancer. On the SGA, 28 patients were SGA-A, 25 SGA-B, and 18 SGA-C. The SGA-B/C group had significantly higher BMI (p < 0.01) and more ICU admissions (p = 0.02). The G8 score was significantly lower (p = 0.03) in the SGA-B/C group, suggesting coexisting functional decline. In terms of postoperative outcomes, the SGA-B/C group had a significantly longer postoperative hospital stay (p = 0.04). The 3-year OS rates for all stages were 100% in the SGA-A group and 49.7% in the SGA-B/C group (p = 0.03), while the 3-year OS rates for patients excluding Stage IV were 100% in the SGA-A group and 68.5% in the SGA-B/C group, not significantly different (p = 0.14). The 3-year RFS rate was 95.5% in the SGA-A group and 65.3% in the SGA-B/C group (p = 0.15).<br>
Conclusion The SGA is a promising nutritional index associated with short-term outcomes in older patients undergoing colorectal cancer surgery. The SGA can be assessed in a few minutes during an outpatient visit, making it useful for routine clinical use.

kn-title=High risk of multiple gastric cancers in Japanese individuals with Lynch syndrome
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Aim: Lynch syndrome (LS) is a dominantly inherited syndrome characterized by an increased risk for LS associated tumors such as colorectal cancer (CRC) and gastric cancer (GC). However, the clinical benefit of surveillance for GC remains unclear while it has already been recommended for CRC. This study aimed to elucidate the clinical features of GC in Japanese individuals with LS, and the risk of developing multiple GCs to build regional-tailored surveillance programs in LS patients with GC.<br>
Methods: Data on Japanese individuals with LS were retrospectively collected from a single institution. The clinical features of GC, including the cumulative risk of multiple GCs, were analyzed.<br>
Results: Among 96 individuals with LS (MLH1/MSH2/MSH6, 75:20:1), 32 GC lesions were detected in 15 individuals with LS (male/female, 11:4). The median age at initial GC diagnosis was 52.7 y (range: 28–71). Histological examination revealed a predominance of intestinal type (19/24: 87.5%). Moreover, the majority of the GC lesions (82%) were determined to have high-frequency of microsatellite instability. The cumulative risk of individuals with LS developing GC at 70 y was 31.3% (MLH1 36.1%, MSH2 18.0%). Notably, the cumulative risk of individuals with LS developing metachronous and/or synchronous GCs at 0, 10 and 20 y after initial diagnosis of GC was 26.7%, 40.7%, and 59.4%, respectively.<br>
Conclusion: Due to a higher risk of developing multiple GCs, intensive surveillance might be especially recommended for Japanese individuals with LS associated initial GC.

kn-title=Effectiveness of exercise therapy on chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy in patients with ovarian cancer: A scoping review
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Background & aims. Exercise therapy is a potentially beneficial treatment option for chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy (CIPN). However, there is a lack of consensus on the management of CIPN in patients with ovarian cancer. The purpose of this scoping review was to evaluate the evidence on the effectiveness of exercise therapy in patients with ovarian cancer and explore key physical fitness parameters.<br>
Methods. A systematic electronic search was conducted using the MEDLINE, CINAHL, Web of Science, PEDro, and ClinicalTrials.gov databases. Two independent reviewers summarized the features and data from the literature regarding the effectiveness of exercise therapy for CIPN and the association between CIPN and physical fitness parameters.<br>
Results. Ten articles involving 3402 participants were reviewed. The study design included one randomized controlled trial, one single-arm trial, one prospective cohort study, five retrospective cohort studies, and two cross-sectional studies. The mean patient age was >60 years in three studies and 50–60 years in six studies. The mean body mass index was >25.0 kg/m2 in six studies and not stated in four studies. In six references, patients received platinum and taxane-based chemotherapy. The effectiveness of an exercise therapy program for CIPN was reported in a randomized controlled trial. Two cross-sectional studies highlighted the association between daily physical inactivity and CIPN; two retrospective cohort studies showed an association between low skeletal muscle density and CIPN; one article demonstrated an association between physical dysfunction and CIPN.<br>
Conclusion. This scoping review indicates that although evidence is lacking, exercise intervention programs for CIPN in patients with ovarian cancer have potential benefits, especially when focused on daily physical activity, skeletal muscle density, and physical function.

kn-title=The Japan MSA registry: A multicenter cohort study of multiple system atrophy
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Background: Multiple system atrophy (MSA) is a neurodegenerative disorder characterized by autonomic failure and various motor symptoms. While MSA-C (cerebellar type) predominates in East Asia, MSA-P (parkinsonian type) predominates in Europe and North America. This nationwide patient registry aimed to (1) conduct a prospective natural history study of MSA in Japan, (2) facilitate patient recruitment for clinical trials, and (3) deposit bioresources and clinical information in a biobank.<br>
Methods: Thirteen institutions participated in this study. Clinical information was obtained by neurologists from the patients visiting the hospital every 12 months to assess the UMSARS Part 2 scores and by telephone interviews by nurses every 6 months to assess UMSARS Part 1 scores and to determine whether clinical events had occurred.<br>
Results: Demographic data from 329 MSA patients (216 MSA-C and 113 MSA-P) were analyzed. The mean age at symptom onset was 58.2 years (standard deviation, 8.9); the mean duration of symptoms at enrollment was 3.5 years (standard deviation, 2.2). The mean 12-month changes in the UMSARS Part 1 and Part 2 scores were 7.9 (standard deviation, 5.6) and 6.4 (standard deviation, 5.9), respectively. The patient registry proved useful in recruiting participants for clinical trials, including those with gene variants. Clinical information and biospecimens were deposited in a biobank.<br>
Discussion: The study highlighted the importance of telephone interviews in minimizing drop-out rates in natural history studies and demonstrated similar MSA progression rates across populations. The deposited bioresources are available to researchers upon request, aiming to contribute to future MSA researches.

kn-title=Association study of GBA1 variants with MSA based on comprehensive sequence analysis -Pitfalls in short-read sequence analysis depending on the human reference genome-
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Multiple system atrophy (MSA) is a neurodegenerative disorder characterized by various combinations of autonomic failure, parkinsonism, and cerebellar ataxia. To elucidate variants associated with MSA, we have been conducting short-read-based whole-genome sequence analysis. In the process of the association studies, we initially focused on GBA1, a previously proposed susceptibility gene for MSA, to evaluate whether GBA1 variants can be efficiently identified despite its extraordinarily high homology with its pseudogene, GBA1LP. To accomplish this, we conducted a short-read whole-genome sequence analysis with alignment to GRCh38 as well as Sanger sequence analysis and compared the results. We identified five variants with inconsistencies between the two pipelines, of which three variants (p.L483P, p.A495P–p.V499V, p.L483_M489delinsW) were the results of misalignment due to minor alleles in GBA1P1 registered in GRCh38. The miscalling events in these variants were resolved by alignment to GRCh37 as the reference genome, where the major alleles are registered. In addition, a structural variant was not properly identified either by short-read or by Sanger sequence analyses. Having accomplished correct variant calling, we identified three variants pathogenic for Gaucher disease (p.S310G, p.L483P, and p.L483_M489delinsW). Of these variants, the allele frequency of p.L483P (0.003) in the MSA cases was higher than that (0.0011) in controls. The meta-analysis incorporating a previous report demonstrated a significant association of p.L483P with MSA with an odds ratio of 2.85 (95% CI; 1.05 – 7.76, p = 0.0400).

kn-title=A novel brief questionnaire using a face rating scale to assess dental anxiety and fear
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=PURPOSE This study aimed to evaluate the reliability and validity of a four-item questionnaire using a face rating scale to measure dental trait anxiety (DTA), dental trait fear (DTF), dental state anxiety (DSA), and dental state fear (DSF).<br>
MATERIALS AND METHODS Participants were consecutively selected from patients undergoing scaling (S-group; n = 47) and implant placement (I-group; n = 25). The S-group completed the questionnaire both before initial and second scaling, whereas the I-group responded on the pre-surgery day (Pre-day), the day of implant placement (Imp-day), and the day of suture removal (Post-day).<br>
RESULTS The reliability in the S-group was evaluated using the test-retest method, showing a weighted kappa value of DTA, 0.61; DTF, 0.46; DSA, 0.67; DSF, 0.52. Criterion-related validity, assessed using the State-Trait Anxiety Inventory’s trait anxiety and state anxiety, revealed positive correlations between trait anxiety and DTA/DTF (DTA, ρ = 0.30; DTF, ρ = 0.27, ρ: correlation coefficient) and between state anxiety and all four items (DTA, ρ = 0.41; DTF, ρ = 0.32; DSA, ρ = 0.25; DSF, ρ = 0.25). Known-group validity was assessed using the initial data and Imp-day data from the S-group and I-group, respectively, revealing significantly higher DSA and DSF scores in the I-group than in the S-group. Responsiveness was gauged using I-group data, showing significantly lower DSA and DSF scores on post-day compared to other days.<br>
CONCLUSION The newly developed questionnaire has acceptable reliability and validity for clinical use, suggesting its usefulness for research on dental anxiety and fear and for providing patient-specific dental care.

kn-title=Morphological Features of Patent Foramen Ovale Compared Between Older and Young Patients With Cryptogenic Ischemic Stroke
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Background: The morphology of a patent foramen ovale (PFO) with a high-risk for cryptogenic ischemic stroke (CS) is an important factor in the selection of patients for transcatheter closure, but the morphological features of PFO in older patients with a history of CS are less known because the most data are obtained from younger patients.<br>
Methods and Results: The study included 169 patients who had a history of CS and PFO. The prevalence of high-risk morphologies of PFO assessed by transesophageal echocardiography was compared between patients aged ≥60 years and patients aged <60 years. We also assessed the presence of septal malalignment of PFO on the aortic wall. The probability of CS due to PFO was evaluated using the PFO-Associated Stroke Causal Likelihood classification system. Patients aged ≥60 years had a significantly higher prevalence of atrial septal aneurysm than patients aged <60 years. The prevalence of large right-to-left shunt, long-tunnel of PFO, or Eustachian valve or Chiari’s network was similar between patients aged ≥60 years and <60 years. Septal malalignment was observed more frequently in patients aged ≥60 years than in those <60 years old. Nearly 90% of patients aged ≥60 years were classified as ‘possible’ in the PFO-Associated Stroke Causal Likelihood classification system.<br>
Conclusions: High-risk morphologies of PFO are common in older patients with a history of CS, as well as in younger patients.

kn-title=Enhanced design of pCMViR-TSC plasmid vector for sustainably high cargo gene expression in mammalian cells
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=The first-generation pCMViR-TSC, implemented through the promoter sandwich rule, yields 10- to 100-fold higher gene expression than the standard plasmid used with the CMV (cytomegalovirus) or CAG promoter. However, the vector’s shortcomings limit its utility to transient expression only, as it is not suitable for establishing stable transformants in mammalian cells. To overcome this weakness, we here introduce the improved plasmid vector pSAKA-4B, derived from pCMViR-TSC as a second-generation chromosome-insertable vector. This vector facilitates the linear entry of the expression unit into the TTAA site of DNA universally with transposase assistance. The vector is helpful for the indefinite expression of our target gene. The new vector system is proven here to be efficient in establishing stable transformants with a high likelihood of positive clones that exhibit significantly elevated expression levels of the delivered foreign gene. This system, alongside the first-generation vector, is therefore instrumental for diverse basic research endeavors concerning genes, proteins, cells, and animals, and potentially for clinical applications such as gene therapy.

kn-title=Method for predicting crack size using amplitude change in titanium alloy under bending vibration
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=The natural frequency of a material decreases owing to the presence of cracks. Thus, when a crack initiates in a material under vibration, the amplitude of the vibration changes with the crack propagation. In this study, we investigated a method for predicting crack size using the amplitude change in a plate specimen of a titanium alloy under bending vibration. The bending displacement amplitudes were measured using high-speed camera images of the specimens. The crack sizes were measured using optical microscopy images of plastic replicas of the specimen surfaces that were obtained after interrupting tests at specified intervals. By using the relationship between the total area of the cracks and bending displacement amplitude for tests at two different vibration frequencies as well as the relationship between the vibration frequency and bending displacement amplitude for an undamaged specimen, the bending displacement amplitude at any vibration frequency can be monitored to predict the total area of the cracks.

kn-title=Implant-supported fixed prostheses with cantilever: a systematic review and meta-analysis
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Purpose This systematic review (SR) aimed to investigate whether the presence of a cantilever affects the results of implant treatment for partial edentulism, including an analysis of the anterior and posterior regions of the dental arches.<br>
Methods An electronic search was performed, and original articles published between 1995 and November 2023 were included. The outcomes were the implant survival rate, patient satisfaction, occurrence of mechanical complications, and marginal bone loss around the implants. Two SR members independently examined the validity of the studies, extracted evidence from the included studies, and performed risk of bias assessment, comprehensive evidence evaluation, and meta-analysis.<br>
Results Nine studies met our inclusion criteria. Implant survival rate tended to be lower in the cantilever group, and marginal bone loss tended to be higher in the cantilever group; however, there was no significant difference. There was no significant difference in patient satisfaction based on the presence or absence of a cantilever. Moreover, the incidence of mechanical complications was significantly higher in the cantilever group. According to the analysis of anterior and posterior regions, implant survival rate tended to be lower in the cantilever group of the posterior region, and marginal bone loss around the implants tended to be higher in the cantilever group of the anterior region.<br>
Conclusion Implant-supported fixed prostheses with cantilevers did not negatively affect implant survival rate, marginal bone loss, or patient satisfaction. However, the incidence of mechanical complications significantly increased in the cantilever group.

kn-title=A Characteristic Magnetic Resonance Imaging Finding to Identify Morton Neuroma: The Slug Sign
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Background: Morton neuroma is a common cause of forefoot pain and sensory disturbances, but it is difficult to identify on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). The aim of this study was to verify the usefulness of a characteristic MRI finding (slug sign) for identifying Morton neuroma and to clarify the relationship between excised neuroma characteristics and preoperative MRI findings.<br>
Methods: Twenty-two web spaces were retrospectively assessed from the second and third intermetatarsal spaces of 11 feet of 10 patients (7 women and 3 men, aged average 59.5 years) who underwent surgical excision of Morton neuroma between 2017 and 2022. Asymptomatic web spaces were used as control. Neuromas with 2 branches of the plantar digital nerves on axial T1-weighted MRI (MRI-T1WI) were considered the slug sign. We investigated the preoperative presence of the slug sign in Morton neuroma and asymptomatic control web spaces. We also investigated the relationship between the maximum transverse diameter of the excised specimen and that estimated on coronal MRI-T1WI.<br>
Results: A total of 15 Morton neuromas were excised and assessed. The slug signs were present in 10 intermetatarsal spaces in 15 web spaces with Morton neuroma whereas the sign was found in 1 intermetatarsal space in 7 asymptomatic web spaces. The sensitivity and specificity for the slug sign to diagnose Morton neuroma was 66.7% and 85.7%, respectively. The positive and negative predictive values were 90.9% and 54.5%, respectively. The mean maximum transverse diameter of excised neuromas was 4.7 mm. The mean maximum transverse diameter of neuromas on coronal MRI-T1WI was 3.4 mm. A significant positive correlation was found between the maximum transverse diameters of excised specimens and diameters estimated on coronal MRI-T1WI (r = 0.799, P < .001).<br>
Conclusion: The slug sign may be a useful indicator of Morton neuroma on MRI to confirm nerve involvement after bifurcation.<br>
Level of Evidence: Level IV, retrospective series.

kn-title=Coronal Cementum and Reduced Enamel Epithelium on Occlusal Surface of Impacted Wisdom Tooth in a Human
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Background: There is only limited research on the coronal cementum of a tooth, and the mechanisms of its forming process are not well-defined. This report presents a coronal cementum on the occlusal surfaces of enamel in an impacted wisdom tooth in a human, which is not nearly the cervical portion. Materials and Methods: The tooth (Tooth #1) was derived from a 46-year-old female. Histological analysis, including hematoxylin and eosin (HE) and toluidine blue (TB) staining, and Scanning Electron Microscopy and Energy Dispersive X-ray Spectrometer (SEM-EDS) analysis of the extracted tooth were conducted. Radiographic examination showed that Tooth #1 was horizontally impacted in the maxilla and had the apex of a single root placed between the buccal and palatal roots of Tooth #2. Results: Coronal cementum was distributed widely on the enamel, and reduced enamel epithelium was also found with enamel matrix proteins histologically. The formation of acellular cementum was observed to be more predominant than that of the cellular cementum in Tooth #1. SEM showed that the occlusal cementum connected directly with enamel. Calcium mapping revealed an almost similar occlusal cementum and enamel. In addition, the spectrum of elements in coronal cementum resembled the primary cementum according to SEM-EDS. Discussion: Thus, coronal cementogenesis in impacted human teeth might be related to the existence of reduced enamel epithelium.

kn-title=Chromosome-specific barcode system with centromeric repeat in cultivated soybean and wild progenitor
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Wild soybean Glycine soja is the progenitor of cultivated soybean Glycine max. Information on soybean functional centromeres is limited despite extensive genome analysis. These species are an ideal model for studying centromere dynamics for domestication and breeding. We performed a detailed chromatin immunoprecipitation analysis using centromere-specific histone H3 protein to delineate two distinct centromeric DNA sequences with unusual repeating units with monomer sizes of 90–92 bp (CentGm-1) and 413-bp (CentGm-4) shorter and longer than standard nucleosomes. These two unrelated DNA sequences with no sequence similarity are part of functional centromeres in both species. Our results provide a comparison of centromere properties between a cultivated and a wild species under the effect of the same kinetochore protein. Possible sequence homogenization specific to each chromosome could highlight the mechanism for evolutionary conservation of centromeric properties independent of domestication and breeding. Moreover, a unique barcode system to track each chromosome is developed using CentGm-4 units. Our results with a unifying centromere composition model using CentGm-1 and CentGm-4 superfamilies could have far-reaching implications for comparative and evolutionary genome research.

kn-title=Synthesis and biochemical characterization of naphthoquinone derivatives targeting bacterial histidine kinases
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Waldiomycin is an inhibitor of histidine kinases (HKs). Although most HK inhibitors target the ATP-binding region, waldiomycin binds to the intracellular dimerization domain (DHp domain) with its naphthoquinone moiety presumed to interact with the conserved H-box region. To further develop inhibitors targeting the H-box, various 2-aminonaphthoquinones with cyclic, aliphatic, or aromatic amino groups and naphtho [2,3-d] isoxazole-4,9-diones were synthesized. These compounds were tested for their inhibitory activity (IC50) against WalK, an essential HK for Bacillus subtilis growth, and their minimum inhibitory concentrations (MIC) against B. subtilis. As a result, 11 novel HK inhibitors were obtained as naphthoquinone derivatives (IC50: 12.6–305 µM, MIC: 0.5–128 µg ml−1). The effect of representative compounds on the expression of WalK/WalR regulated genes in B. subtilis was investigated. Four naphthoquinone derivatives induced the expression of iseA (formerly yoeB), whose expression is negatively regulated by the WalK/WalR system. This suggests that these compounds inhibit WalK in B. subtilis cells, resulting in antibacterial activity. Affinity selection/mass spectrometry analysis was performed to identify whether these naphthoquinone derivatives interact with WalK in a manner similar to waldiomycin. Three compounds were found to competitively inhibit the binding of waldiomycin to WalK, suggesting that they bind to the H-box region conserved in HKs and inhibit HK activity.

kn-title=Telemedicine as an alternative to in-person care in the field of rheumatic diseases: A systematic scoping review
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Objective: The COVID-19 pandemic prompted the widespread adoption of telemedicine as an alternative to in-person care. This systematic scoping review evaluated the effectiveness, cost-efficiency, and challenges of telemedicine for patients with rheumatic diseases.<br>
Methods: A comprehensive search of the MEDLINE database was conducted using specific terms related to rheumatoid or juvenile arthritis, and telemedicine. The literature search included studies published up to March, 2024. In this review, we only considered studies assessing telemedicine as an alternative to in-person care.<br>
Results: The search, conducted on 15 March 2024, generated 258 references. Eight reports from three randomized controlled trials and three observational studies were included. Randomized controlled trials have shown that the outcomes of telemedicine intervention are comparable to those of in-person care in terms of disease activity, functional status, and quality of life, while enabling fewer outpatient visits and cost-effectiveness. However, the high dropout rates highlight the importance of patient preferences and comprehensive education. Observational studies revealed similar findings but were limited by a high confounding bias.<br>
Conclusion: Telemedicine offers economic advantages and maintains clinical outcomes comparable to those of in-person care. Its success depends on structured patient education and alignment with patient preferences. Further research is required, particularly in the context of healthcare in Japan.

kn-title=Incidence, Management, and Prevention of Gynecomastia and Breast Pain in Patients with Prostate Cancer Undergoing Antiandrogen Therapy: A Systematic Review and Meta-analysis of Randomized Controlled Trials
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Background and objective: In patients with prostate cancer treated with antiandrogen monotherapy, gynecomastia and breast pain are relatively common. In the setting of androgen receptor pathway inhibitors (ARPIs), the incidence of these adverse events (AEs) remains unclear. In addition, the effect of prophylactic treatment on gynecomastia remains uncertain. We aimed to evaluate the incidence of gynecomastia and breast pain in prostate cancer patients treated with ARPIs compared with androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) and the effect of prophylactic treatment for these AEs due to antiandrogen therapy.<br>
Methods: In June 2024, we queried four databases—PubMed, Scopus, Web of Science, and Embase—for randomized controlled trials (RCTs) investigating prostate cancer treatments involving antiandrogen therapy. The endpoints of interest were the incidence of these AEs due to ARPIs and the effect of prophylactic treatment for these.<br>
Key findings and limitations: Eighteen RCTs, comprising 5036 patients, were included in the systematic review and meta-analysis. ARPIs included enzalutamide, darolutamide, and apalutamide. The results indicated that patients who received ARPI monotherapy had a significantly higher incidence of gynecomastia than those who received ADT monotherapy (risk ratio [RR]: 5.19, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 3.58–7.51, p < 0.001). There was no significant difference in the incidence of gynecomastia between ARPI plus ADT therapy and ADT monotherapy (RR: 1.27, 95% CI: 0.84–1.93, p = 0.2). Prophylactic tamoxifen or radiotherapy reduced significantly the incidence of gynecomastia and breast pain caused by bicalutamide monotherapy.<br>
Conclusions and clinical implications: We found that ARPI monotherapy increases the incidence of these AEs significantly compared with ADT. In contrast, ARPI plus ADT therapy did not result in a higher incidence of AEs. The use of either tamoxifen or radiotherapy was effective in reducing the incidence of these AEs due to bicalutamide monotherapy. These prophylactic treatments could reduce the incidence of AEs due to ARPI monotherapy. However, further studies are needed to clarify their efficacy.<br>
Patient summary: Although androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) improves overall survival in patients with prostate cancer, it is associated with several complications. Androgen receptor pathway inhibitor (ARPI) monotherapy has emerged as a promising strategy for improving oncological outcomes in these patients. However, ARPI monotherapy increases gynecomastia and breast pain in prostate cancer patients compared with ADT, while ARPI plus ADT did not result in a higher incidence of adverse events.

kn-title=Generation and characterization of cerebellar granule neurons specific knockout mice of Golli-MBP
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Golli–myelin basic proteins, encoded by the myelin basic protein gene, are widely expressed in neurons and oligodendrocytes in the central nervous system. Further, prior research has shown that Golli–myelin basic protein is necessary for myelination and neuronal maturation during central nervous system development. In this study, we established Golli–myelin basic protein-floxed mice to elucidate the cell-type-specific effects of Golli–myelin basic protein knockout through the generation of conditional knockout mice (Golli–myelin basic proteinsfl/fl; E3CreN), in which Golli–myelin basic proteins were specifically deleted in cerebellar granule neurons, where Golli–myelin basic proteins are expressed abundantly in wild-type mice. To investigate the role of Golli–myelin basic proteins in cerebellar granule neurons, we further performed histopathological analyses of these mice, with results indicating no morphological changes or degeneration of the major cellular components of the cerebellum. Furthermore, behavioral analysis showed that Golli–myelin basic proteinsfl/fl; E3CreN mice were healthy and did not display any abnormal behavior. These results suggest that the loss of Golli–myelin basic proteins in cerebellar granule neurons does not lead to cerebellar perturbations or behavioral abnormalities. This mouse model could therefore be employed to analyze the effect of Golli–myelin basic protein deletion in specific cell types of the central nervous system, such as other neuronal cells and oligodendrocytes, or in lymphocytes of the immune system.

kn-title=What is the identity of Gerota fascia? Histological study with cadavers
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Objectives: The advancement of laparoscopic surgery has allowed surgeons to see finer anatomical structures during surgery. As a result, several issues have arisen regarding Gerota fascia that cannot be explained by previous interpretations, such as its various forms observed during surgery. To address these issues, we histologically examined the structure of Gerota fascia.<br>
Methods: Specimens for study were prepared from kidneys with Gerota fascia from four cadavers, and the structure was studied histologically. Its thickness and collagen fiber area ratios were measured using ImageJ and compared to those of the epimysium of the rectus abdominis muscle.<br>
Results: Connective tissue that appeared to be Gerota fascia was observed in 26 specimens. Histologically, the basic structure of Gerota fascia was a sandwich-like structure with a thin layer of thick, long collagen fibers in the central layer, and small granular collagen fibers scattered at the edges. However, not all areas observed had a similar structure; eight specimens were composed only of small granular collagen fibers. The average thickness of the Gerota fascia was 466 μm, and the area ratio of collagen was 27.1%. In contrast, the epimysium was much thicker than Gerota fascia, and its collagen fibers were much thicker and denser.<br>
Conclusions: Gerota fascia, unlike the epimysium, was a very thin and fragile layer of collagen fibers, and its structure was diverse. This explains why Gerota fascia was observed in various states during surgery. It is important for surgeons to understand the properties of Gerota fascia and to treat it appropriately.

kn-title=A Preliminary Survey of Rheumatologists on the Management of Late-onset Rheumatoid Arthritis in Japan
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Objective We investigated the current perspectives regarding the management of late-onset rheumatoid arthritis (LORA) among rheumatologists in clinical practice.<br>
Methods This study was performed in October 2021, and included 65 rheumatologists certified by the Japan College of Rheumatology, who were administered questionnaires (including multiple choice and descriptive formulae) regarding the management of LORA. We aggregated and analyzed the responses.<br>
Results All 65 rheumatologists responded to the survey; 47 (72%) answered that >50% of newly diagnosed patients were aged ≥65 years, 42 (65%) answered that achievement of remission or low disease activity was the treatment goal, and 40 (62%) considered patient safety to be the highest priority. Most rheumatologists are concerned about the management of conditions other than RA, such as comorbidities, financial constraints, and life circumstances that interfere with standard or recommended treatment implementation.<br>
Conclusion This preliminary survey highlighted various rheumatologists' perspectives regarding the management of LORA.

kn-title=Real-world status of multimodal treatment of Stage IIIA-N2 non-small cell lung cancer in Japan: Results from the SOLUTION study, a non-interventional, multicenter cohort study
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Objectives: There is limited consensus on resectability criteria for Stage IIIA-N2 non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). We examined the patient characteristics, N2 status, treatment decisions, and clinical outcomes according to the treatment modality for Stage IIIA-N2 NSCLC in Japan.<br>
Materials and methods: Patients with Stage IIIA-N2 NSCLC in Japan were consecutively registered in the SOLUTION study between 2013 and 2014. Patients were divided according to treatment (chemoradiotherapy [CRT], surgery + perioperative therapy [neoadjuvant and/or adjuvant therapy], surgery alone). Demographic characteristics, N2 status (number and morphological features), pathological information, and treatments were analyzed descriptively. Overall survival (OS), progression-free survival (PFS), and disease-free survival (DFS) were estimated using the Kaplan–Meier method.<br>
Results: Of 227 patients registered, 133 underwent CRT, 56 underwent surgery + perioperative therapy, and 38 underwent surgery alone. The physicians reported the following reasons for unresectability for 116 of 133 CRT patients: large number of metastatic lymph nodes (70.7 %), extranodal infiltration (25.0 %), poor surgical tolerance (19.0 %), or other reasons (18.1 %). CRT was more frequently performed in patients whose lymph nodes had an infiltrative appearance (64.3 %) and was the predominant treatment in patients with multiple involved stations (discrete: 60.0 %; infiltrative: 80.4 %). Distant metastasis with/without local progression was found in 50.4 %, 50.0 %, and 36.8 % of patients in the CRT, surgery + perioperative therapy, and surgery alone groups, respectively. The respective 3-year OS and DFS/PFS rates (median values) were as follows: surgery + perioperative therapy—61.9 % (not reached) and 37.1 % (22.4 months; DFS); CRT group—42.2 % (31.9 months) and 26.8 % (12.0 months; PFS); surgery alone group—37.7 % (26.5 months) and 28.7 % (12.6 months; DFS).<br>
Conclusion: This study has illuminated the real-world decision rules for choosing between surgical and non-surgical approaches in patients with Stage IIIA-N2 NSCLC. Our landmark data could support treatment decision making for using immune checkpoint inhibitors and targeted therapy for driver oncogenes in the perioperative therapy era.

kn-title=Review Article: Diagnostic Paradigm Shift in Spine Surgery
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Meticulous clinical examination is essential for spinal disorders to utilize the diagnostic methods and technologies that strongly support physicians and enhance clinical practice. A significant change in the approach to diagnosing spinal disorders has occurred in the last three decades, which has enhanced a more nuanced understanding of spine pathology. Traditional radiographic methods such as conventional and functional X-rays and CT scans are still the first line in the diagnosis of spinal disorders due to their low cost and accessibility. As more advanced imaging technologies become increasingly available worldwide, there is a constantly increasing trend in MRI scans for detecting spinal pathologies and making treatment decisions. Not only do MRI scans have superior diagnostic capabilities, but they also assist surgeons in performing meticulous preoperative planning, making them currently the most widely used diagnostic tool for spinal disorders. Positron Emission Tomography (PET) can help detect inflammatory lesions, infections, and tumors. Other advanced diagnostic tools such as CT/MRI fusion image, Functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging (fMRI), Upright and Kinetic MRI, magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS), diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI), and diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) could play an important role when it comes to detecting more special pathologies. However, some technical difficulties in the daily praxis and their high costs act as obstacles to their further spread. Integrating artificial intelligence and advancements in data analytics and virtual reality promises to enhance spinal procedures’ precision, safety, and efficacy. As these technologies continue to develop, they will play a critical role in transforming spinal surgery. This paradigm shift emphasizes the importance of continuous innovation and adaptability in improving the diagnosis and treatment of spinal disorders.

kn-abstract=Study Design: Prospective multicenter study.<br>
Objectives: Palliative surgery is crucial for maintaining the quality of life (QOL) in patients with spinal metastases. This study aimed to compare the short-term outcomes of QOL after palliative surgery between patients with metastatic spinal tumors at different segments.<br>
Methods: We prospectively compared the data of 203 patients with spinal metastases at 2-3 consecutive segments who were divided into the following three groups: cervical, patients with cervical spine lesions; thoracic, patients with upper–middle thoracic spine lesions; and TL/L/S, patients with lesions at the thoracolumbar junction and lumbar and sacral regions. Preoperative and postoperative EuroQol 5-dimension (EQ5D) 5-level were compared.<br>
Results: All groups exhibited improvement in the Frankel grade, performance status, pain, Barthel index, EQ5D health state utility value (HSUV), and EQ5D visual analog scale (VAS) postoperatively. Although preoperative EQ5D HSUVs did not significantly differ between the groups (cervical, 0.461 ± 0.291; thoracic, 0.321 ± 0.292; and TL/L/S, 0.376 ± 0.272), the thoracic group exhibited significantly lower postoperative EQ5D HSUVs than the other two groups (cervical, 0.653 ± 0.233; thoracic, 0.513 ± 0.252; and TL/L/S, 0.624 ± 0.232). However, postoperative EQ5D VAS was not significantly different between the groups (cervical, 63.4 ± 25.8; thoracic, 54.7 ± 24.5; and TL/L/S, 61.7 ± 21.9).<br>
Conclusions: Palliative surgery for metastatic spinal tumors provided comparable QOL improvement, irrespective of the spinal segment involved. Patients with upper and middle thoracic spinal metastases had poorer QOL outcomes than those with metastases in other segments; however, sufficient QOL improvement was achieved.

kn-title=A Novel Technique for Basilar Invagination Treatment in a Patient with Klippel–Feil Syndrome: A Clinical Example and Brief Literature Review
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Objectives and Background: To present a novel technique of treatment for a patient with basilar invagination. Basilar invagination (BI) is a congenital condition that can compress the cervicomedullary junction, leading to neurological deficits. Severe cases require surgical intervention, but there is debate over the choice of approach. The anterior approach allows direct decompression but carries high complication rates, while the posterior approach provides indirect decompression and offers good stability with fewer complications. Materials and Methods: A 15-year-old boy with severe myelopathy presented to our hospital with neck pain, bilateral upper limb muscle weakness, and hand numbness persisting for 4 years. Additionally, he experienced increased numbness and gait disturbance three months before his visit. On examination, he exhibited hyperreflexia in both upper and lower limbs, muscle weakness in the bilateral upper limbs (MMT 4), bilateral hypoesthesia below the elbow and in both legs, mild urinary and bowel incontinence, and a spastic gait. Radiographs revealed severe basilar invagination (BI). Preoperative images showed severe BI and that the spinal cord was severely compressed with odontoid process. Results: The patient underwent posterior surgery with the C-arm free technique. All screws including occipital screws were inserted into the adequate position under navigation guidance. Reduction was achieved with skull rotation and distraction. A follow-up at one year showed the following results: Manual muscle testing results and sensory function tests showed almost full recovery, with bilateral arm recovery (MMT 5) and smooth walking. The cervical Japanese Orthopedic Association score of the patient improved from 9/17 to 16/17. Postoperative images showed excellent spinal cord decompression, and no major or severe complications had occurred. Conclusions: Basilar invagination alongside Klippel–Feil syndrome represents a relatively uncommon condition. Utilizing a posterior approach for treating reducible BI with a C-arm-free technique proved to be a safe method in addressing severe myelopathy. This novel navigation technique yields excellent outcomes for patients with BI.

kn-title=Predicting Surgical Site Infections in Spine Surgery: Association of Postoperative Lymphocyte Reduction
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Objective: Postoperative lymphopenia is reported as an excellent indicator to predict surgical-site infection (SSI) after spine surgery. However, there is still controversy concerning which serological markers can predict spinal SSI. This study aims to evaluate excellent and early indicators for detecting SSI, focusing on spine instrumented surgery. Materials and Methods: This study included 268 patients who underwent spinal instrumented surgery from January 2022 to December 2023 (159 female and 109 male, average 62.9 years). The SSI group included 20 patients, and the non-SSI group comprised 248 patients. Surgical time, intraoperative blood loss, and glycemic levels were measured in both groups. The complete blood cell counts, differential counts, albumin, and C-reactive protein (CRP) levels were measured pre-surgery and postoperative on Days 1, 3, and 7. In comparing the groups, the Mann–Whitney U test analysis was used for continuous variables, while the chi-squared test and Fisher’s exact test were used for dichotomous variables. Results: The incidence of SSI after spinal instrumentation was 7.46% and was relatively higher in scoliosis surgery. The SSI group had significantly longer surgical times (248 min vs. 180 min, p = 0.0004) and a higher intraoperative blood loss (772 mL vs. 372 mL, p < 0.0001) than the non-SSI group. In the SSI group, the Day 3 (10.5 ± 6.2% vs. 13.8 ± 6.0%, p = 0.012) and Day 7 (14.4 ± 4.8% vs. 18.8 ± 7.1%, p = 0.012) lymphocyte ratios were lower than the non-SSI group. Albumin levels on Day 1 in the SSI group were lower than in the non-SSI group (2.94 ± 0.30 mg/dL vs. 3.09 ± 0.38 mg/dL, p = 0.045). There is no difference in CRP and lymphocyte count between the two groups. Conclusions: SSI patients had lower lymphocyte percentages than non-SSI patients, which was a risk factor for SSI, with constant high inflammation. The Day 3 lymphocyte percentage may predict SSI after spinal instrumented surgery.

kn-title=Retrospective Cohort Study of Early versus Delayed Ballon Kyphoplasty Intervention for Osteoporotic Vertebral Fracture Treatment
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Objectives: To investigate the outcomes of early balloon kyphoplasty (BKP) intervention compared with late intervention for osteoporotic vertebral fracture (OVF). Background: Osteoporotic vertebral fracture can lead to kyphotic deformity, severe back pain, depression, and disturbances in activities of daily living (ADL). Balloon kyphoplasty has been widely utilized to treat symptomatic OVFs and has proven to be a very effective surgical option for this condition. Furthermore, BKP is relatively a safe and effective method due to its reduced acrylic cement leakage and greater kyphosis correction. Materials and Methods: A retrospective cohort study was conducted at our hospital for patients who underwent BKP for osteoporotic vertebral fractures in the time frame between January 2020 and December 2022. Ninety-nine patients were included in this study, and they were classified into two groups: in total, 36 patients underwent early BKP intervention (EI) at <4 weeks, and 63 patients underwent late BKP intervention (LI) at ≥4 weeks. We performed a clinical, radiological and statistical comparative evaluation for the both groups with a mean follow-up of one year. Results: Adjacent segmental fractures were more frequently observed in the LI group compared to the EI group (33.3% vs. 13.9%, p = 0.034). There was a significant improvement in postoperative vertebral angles in both groups (p = 0.036). The cement volume injected was 7.42 mL in the EI, compared with 6.3 mL in the LI (p = 0.007). The mean surgery time was shorter in the EI, at 30.2 min, compared with 37.1 min for the LI, presenting a significant difference (p = 0.0004). There was no statistical difference in the pain visual analog scale (VAS) between the two groups (p = 0.711), and there was no statistical difference in cement leakage (p = 0.192). Conclusions/Level of Evidence: Early BKP for OVF treatment may achieve better outcomes and fewer adjacent segmental fractures than delayed intervention.

en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Tissue-level oscillation is achieved by tissue-intrinsic clocks along with network-dependent signals originating from distal organs and organismal behavior. Yet, it remains unexplored whether maternal circadian rhythms during pregnancy influence fetal rhythms and impact long-term susceptibility to dietary challenges in offspring. Here, we demonstrate that circadian disruption during pregnancy decreased placental and neonatal weight yet retained transcriptional and structural maturation. Intriguingly, diet-induced obesity was exacerbated in parallel with arrhythmic feeding behavior, hypothalamic leptin resistance, and hepatic circadian reprogramming in offspring of chronodisrupted mothers. In utero circadian desynchrony altered the phase-relationship between the mother and fetus and impacted placental efficiency. Temporal feeding restriction in offspring failed to fully prevent obesity, whereas the circadian alignment of caloric restriction with the onset of the active phase virtually ameliorated the phenotype. Thus, maternal circadian rhythms during pregnancy confer adaptive properties to metabolic functions in offspring and provide insights into the developmental origins of health and disease.

kn-abstract=RNA viruses are ubiquitous in the environment and are important pathogens of humans, animals and plants. In 2024, the International Committee on Taxonomy of Viruses Animal dsRNA and ssRNA(−) Viruses Subcommittee submitted 18 taxonomic proposals for consideration. These proposals expanded the known virosphere by classifying 9 new genera and 88 species for newly detected virus genomes. Of note, newly established species expand the large family of Rhabdoviridae to 580 species. A new species in the family Arenaviridae includes a virus detected in Antarctic fish with a unique split nucleoprotein ORF. Additionally, four new species were established for historically isolated viruses with previously unsequenced genomes. Furthermore, three species were abolished due to incomplete genome sequence information, and one family was moved from being unassigned in the phylum Negarnaviricota into a subphylum and order. Herein, we summarize the 18 ratified taxonomic proposals and the general features of the current taxonomy, thereby supporting public and animal health responses.

en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Inositol-requiring enzyme 1α (IRE1α) is a sensor of endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress and drives ER stress response pathways. Activated IRE1α exhibits RNase activity and cleaves mRNA encoding X-box binding protein 1, a transcription factor that induces the expression of genes that maintain ER proteostasis for cell survival. Previously, we showed that IRE1α undergoes S-nitrosylation, a post-translational modification induced by nitric oxide (NO), resulting in reduced RNase activity. Therefore, S-nitrosylation of IRE1α compromises the response to ER stress, making cells more vulnerable. We conducted virtual screening and cell-based validation experiments to identify compounds that inhibit the S-nitrosylation of IRE1α by targeting nitrosylated cysteine residues. We ultimately identified a compound (1ACTA) that selectively inhibits the S-nitrosylation of IRE1α and prevents the NO-induced reduction of RNase activity. Furthermore, 1ACTA reduces the rate of NO-induced cell death. Our research identified S-nitrosylation as a novel target for drug development for IRE1α and provides a suitable screening strategy.

kn-title=Body weight and eating attitudes influence improvement of depressive symptoms in children and pre-adolescents with eating disorders: a prospective multicenter cohort study
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Background Pediatric patients with eating disorders in a multicenter joint study on 11 facilities were enrolled and prospectively investigated to determine whether improvement in body weight, eating attitudes, and psychosocial factors in children with eating disorders would also improve depressive symptoms.<br>
Methods In this study, 91 patients were enrolled between April 2014 and March 2016. The severity of underweight was assessed using the body mass index-standard deviation score (BMI-SDS), eating behavior was assessed using the children's eating attitude test (ChEAT26), the outcome of childhood eating disorders was assessed using the childhood eating disorder outcome scale, and depressive symptoms were assessed using the Children's Depression Inventory (CDI) score.<br>
Results After 12 months of treatment, depressive symptoms were evaluated in 62 of the 91 cases where it was evaluated at the initial phase. There was no difference in background characteristics between the included patients and the 29 patients who dropped out. A paired-sample t-test revealed a significant decrease in CDI scores after 12 months of treatment (p < 0.001, 95% CI: 2.401–7.373) and a significant increase in the BMI-SDS (p < 0.001, 95% CI: − 2.41973–1.45321). Multiple regression analysis revealed that BMI-SDS and ChEAT26 scores at the initial phase were beneficial in CDI recovery. In addition, BMI-SDS at the initial phase was useful for predicting BMI-SDS recovery after 12 months of treatment.<br>
Conclusions Depressive symptoms in children with eating disorders improved with therapeutic intervention on body weight and eating attitudes.<br>
Trial registration The Clinical Trial Number for this study is UMIN000055004.

kn-title=Rethinking Thin-Layer Chromatography for Screening Technetium-99m Radiolabeled Polymer Nanoparticles
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Thin-layer chromatography (TLC) is commonly employed to screen technetium-99m labeled polymer nanoparticle batches for unreduced pertechnetate and radio-colloidal impurities. Although this method is widely accepted, our findings applying radiolabeled PLGA/PLA–PEG nanoparticles underscore its lack of transferability between different settings and its limitations as a standalone quality control tool. While TLC profiles may appear similar for purified and radiocolloid containing nanoparticle formulations, their in vivo behavior can vary significantly, as demonstrated by discrepancies between TLC results and single-photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) and biodistribution data. This highlights the urgent need for a case-by-case evaluation of TLC methods for each specific nanoparticle type. Our study revealed that polymeric nanoparticles cannot be considered analytically uniform entities in the context of TLC analysis, emphasizing the complex interplay between nanoparticle composition, radiolabeling conditions, and subsequent biological behavior.

kn-title=Evaluating the Patterns of FAPI Uptake in the Shoulder Joint: a Preliminary Study Comparing with FDG Uptake in Oncological Studies
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Background Fibroblast activation protein inhibitor (FAPI) targeting PET has been introduced as a novel molecular imaging modality for visualizing cancer-associated fibroblasts. There have also been reports suggesting incidental findings of localized accumulation in the shoulder joints. However, further characterization in a larger patient cohort is still lacking.<br>
Methods 77 consecutive patients (28 females; mean age, 63.1 ± 11.6) who underwent Ga-68 FAPI-04 PET/CT for diagnosis of solid tumors were included. The incidence and localization of tracer uptake in shoulder joints were investigated and compared with available F-18 FDG scans serving as reference.<br>
Results Ga-68 FAPI-04 uptake was evaluated in 77 patients (154 shoulder joints), of whom 54 subjects (108 shoulder joints) also had available F-18 FDG scans for head-to-head comparison. On FAPI-targeted imaging, 67/154 shoulders (43.5%) demonstrated increased radiotracer accumulation in target lesions, which were distributed as follows: acromioclavicular (AC) joints in 25/67 (37.3%), followed by glenohumeral and subacromial (GH + SA) joints in 23/67 (34.3%), or both (AC and GH + SA joints) in the remaining 19/67 (28.4%). Ga-68 FAPI-04 correlated with quantified F-18 FDG uptake (r = 0.69, p < 0.0001). Relative to the latter radiotracer, however, in-vivo FAP expression in the shoulders was significantly increased (Ga-68 FAPI-04, 4.7 ± 3.2 vs F-18 FDG, 3.6 ± 1.3, p < 0.001).<br>
Conclusion Our study revealed focal accumulation of Ga-68 FAPI-04 in the shoulders, particularly in the AC joints, with higher uptake compared to the inflammatory-directed PET radiotracer F-18 FDG in oncological studies. As a result, further trials are warranted to investigate the potential of FAPI-directed molecular imaging in identifying chronic remodeling in shoulder joints. This could have implications for initiating anti-FAP targeted photodynamic therapy based on PET signal strength.

kn-title=Impact of concomitant medications on the oncologic efficacy of systemic therapy in patients with advanced or metastatic urothelial carcinoma: a systematic review and meta-analysis
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Background: Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICI) and chemotherapy, including antibody-drug conjugates, are widely used for the treatment of patients with advanced unresectable or metastatic urothelial carcinoma (UC). The majority of elderly patients receive concomitant medications to address various comorbidities. We aimed to evaluate the impact of concomitant medications on oncological outcomes in patients with advanced unresectable or metastatic UC treated with systemic therapy.<br>
Material & methods: In August 2024, three datasets were queried for studies evaluating concomitant medications in patients with advanced unresectable or metastatic UC. The review protocol was registered in PROSPERO (CRD42024547335). The primary outcome was overall survival (OS). A fixed- or random-effects model was used for meta-analysis depending on the heterogeneity.<br>
Results: We identified 16 eligible studies (3 prospective and 13 retrospective) comprising 4,816 patients. Most reported concomitant medications included proton pump inhibitors (PPIs), antibiotics, steroids, and opioids. The use of concomitant PPIs, antibiotics, steroids or opioids during ICI therapy was associated with worsened OS (PPIs: HR: 1.43, 95% CI: 1.31–1.57, p < 0.001; antibiotics: HR: 1.2, 95% CI: 1.04–1.38, p = 0.01; steroids: HR: 1.45, 95% CI: 1.25–1.67, p < 0.001; and opioids: HR: 1.74, 95% CI: 1.46–2.07, p < 0.001). Concomitant use of antibiotics during chemotherapy did not impact OS (HR: 1.01, 95% CI: 0.67–1.51).<br>
Conclusions: When treating advanced unresectable or metastatic UC with ICI therapy, we need to pay attention to concomitant medications, such as PPIs and antibiotics to avoid reducing the efficacy of ICI therapy. The mechanism of action of these drugs on ICI efficacy requires further examination.

kn-abstract=Objective: We evaluated the incidence of and risk factors for postoperative infections after robotic-assisted radical prostatectomy (RARP) according to the type and duration of prophylactic antibiotic administration.<br>
Methods: A total of 1038 patients underwent RARP at our institution from 2010 to 2021; 1026 patients (201 in the cefazolin [CEZ] group and 825 in the ampicillin/sulbactam [ABPC/SBT] group) were analyzed, and 12 who used other antibiotics were excluded. The primary endpoint was the incidence of urinary tract infection (UTI), surgical site infection (SSI), and remote infection (RI). T-tests, propensity score matching (PSM) and inverse probability of treatment weighting (IPTW) were performed. Multivariate logistic regression analysis was performed to evaluate the effect of type and duration of prophylactic antibiotic administration.<br>
Results: The incidence of UTI was 2.5% (5/201) in the CEZ group and 3.2% (26/825) in the ABPC/SBT group, with no significant difference between groups (p = 0.622). The rates of SSI and RI were comparable between groups (p = 0.680 and 0.906, respectively). Although the duration of antimicrobial therapy was longer in the ABPC/SBT group (p < 0.001), there was no significant difference in the incidence of UTI/SSI/RI after PSM and IPTW (all p > 0.05). Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that neither the type of antibiotic nor the duration of administration affected the incidence of UTI/SSI/RI.<br>
Conclusion: The risk of postoperative UTI/SSI/RI after RARP did not change with the type and duration of antimicrobial therapy.

kn-title=Biocompatibility of Water-Dispersible Pristine Graphene and Graphene Oxide Using a Close-to-Human Animal Model: A Pilot Study on Swine
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Graphene-based materials (GBMs) are of considerable interest for biomedical applications, and the pilot study on the toxicological and immunological impact of pristine graphene (GR) and graphene oxide (GO) using swine as a close-to-human provides valuable insights. First, ex vivo experiments are conducted on swine blood cells, then GBMs are injected intraperitoneally (i.p.) into swine. Hematological and biochemical analyses at various intervals indicate that neither GO nor GR cause systemic inflammation, pro-coagulant responses, or renal or hepatic dysfunction. Importantly, no systemic toxicity is observed. Analysis of a panel of 84 immune-related genes shows minimal impact of GO and GR. The animals are sacrificed 21 days post-injection, and transient absorption imaging and Raman mapping show the presence of GO and GR in the mesentery only. Histological evaluation reveals no signs of alterations in other organs. Thus, clusters of both materials are detected in the mesentery, and GO aggregates are surrounded only by macrophages with the formation of granulomas. In contrast, modest local reactions are observed around the GR clusters. Overall, these results reveal that i.p. injection of GBMs resulted in a modest local tissue reaction without systemic toxicity. This study, performed in swine, provides essential guidance for future biomedical applications of graphene.

kn-abstract=While the continuous development of advanced bioprinting technologies is under fervent study, enhancing the regenerative potential of hydrogel-based constructs using external stimuli for wound dressing has yet to be tackled. Fibroblasts play a significant role in wound healing and tissue implants at different stages, including extracellular matrix production, collagen synthesis, and wound and tissue remodeling. This study explores the synergistic interplay between photothermal activity and nanomaterial-mediated cell proliferation. The use of different graphene-based materials (GBM) in the development of photoactive bioinks is investigated. In particular, we report the creation of a skin-inspired dressing for wound healing and regenerative medicine. Three distinct GBM, namely, graphene oxide (GO), reduced graphene oxide (rGO), and graphene platelets (GP), were rigorously characterized, and their photothermal capabilities were elucidated. Our investigations revealed that rGO exhibited the highest photothermal efficiency and antibacterial properties when irradiated, even at a concentration as low as 0.05 mg/mL, without compromising human fibroblast viability. Alginate-based bioinks alongside human fibroblasts were employed for the bioprinting with rGO. The scaffold did not affect the survival of fibroblasts for 3 days after bioprinting, as cell viability was not affected. Remarkably, the inclusion of rGO did not compromise the printability of the hydrogel, ensuring the successful fabrication of complex constructs. Furthermore, the presence of rGO in the final scaffold continued to provide the benefits of photothermal antimicrobial therapy without detrimentally affecting fibroblast growth. This outcome underscores the potential of rGO-enhanced hydrogels in tissue engineering and regenerative medicine applications. Our findings hold promise for developing game-changer strategies in 4D bioprinting to create smart and functional tissue constructs with high fibroblast proliferation and promising therapeutic capabilities in drug delivery and bactericidal skin-inspired dressings.

en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Plants detect pathogens using cell-surface pattern recognition receptors (PRRs) such as ELONGATION Factor-TU (EF-TU) RECEPTOR (EFR) and FLAGELLIN SENSING 2 (FLS2), which recognize bacterial EF-Tu and flagellin, respectively. These PRRs belong to the leucine-rich repeat receptor kinase (LRR-RK) family and activate the production of reactive oxygen species via the NADPH oxidase RESPIRATORY BURST OXIDASE HOMOLOG D (RBOHD). The PRR-RBOHD complex is tightly regulated to prevent unwarranted or exaggerated immune responses. However, certain pathogen effectors can subvert these regulatory mechanisms, thereby suppressing plant immunity. To elucidate the intricate dynamics of the PRR-RBOHD complex, we conducted a comparative coimmunoprecipitation analysis using EFR, FLS2, and RBOHD in Arabidopsis thaliana. We identified QIAN SHOU KINASE 1 (QSK1), an LRR-RK, as a PRR-RBOHD complex-associated protein. QSK1 downregulated FLS2 and EFR abundance, functioning as a negative regulator of PRR-triggered immunity (PTI). QSK1 was targeted by the bacterial effector HopF2Pto, a mono-ADP ribosyltransferase, reducing FLS2 and EFR levels through both transcriptional and transcription-independent pathways, thereby inhibiting PTI. Furthermore, HopF2Pto transcriptionally downregulated PROSCOOP genes encoding important stress-regulated phytocytokines and their receptor MALE DISCOVERER 1-INTERACTING RECEPTOR-LIKE KINASE 2. Importantly, HopF2Pto requires QSK1 for its accumulation and virulence functions within plants. In summary, our results provide insights into the mechanism by which HopF2Pto employs QSK1 to desensitize plants to pathogen attack.

kn-title=A low-cost dpMIG-seq method for elucidating complex inheritance in polysomic crops: a case study in tetraploid blueberry
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Next-generation sequencing (NGS) library construction often requires high-quality DNA extraction, precise adjustment of DNA concentration, and restriction enzyme digestion to reduce genome complexity, which results in increased time and cost in sample preparation and processing. To address these challenges, a PCR-based method for rapid NGS library preparation, named dpMIG-seq, has been developed and proven effective for high-throughput genotyping. However, the application of dpMIG-seq has been limited to diploid and polyploid species with disomic inheritance. In this study, we obtained genome-wide single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) markers for tetraploid blueberry to evaluate genotyping and downstream analysis outcomes. Comparison of genotyping qualities inferred across samples with different DNA concentrations and multiple bioinformatics approaches revealed high accuracy and reproducibility of dpMIG-seq-based genotyping, with Pearson's correlation coefficients between replicates in the range of 0.91 to 0.98. Furthermore, we demonstrated that dpMIG-seq enables accurate genotyping of samples with low DNA concentrations. Subsequently, we applied dpMIG-seq to a tetraploid F1 population to examine the inheritance probability of parental alleles. Pairing configuration analysis supported the random meiotic pairing of homologous chromosomes on a genome-wide level. On the other hand, preferential pairing was observed on chr-11, suggesting that there may be an exception to the random pairing. Genotypic data suggested quadrivalent formation within the population, although the frequency of quadrivalent formation varied by chromosome and cultivar. Collectively, the results confirmed applicability of dpMIG-seq for allele dosage genotyping and are expected to catalyze the adoption of this cost-effective and rapid genotyping technology in polyploid studies.

kn-title=Effects of Sediment Microbial Fuel Cells on CH4 and CO2 Emissions from Straw Amended Paddy Soil
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Straw returning into paddy soil enhances soil organic matter which usually promotes the emission of greenhouse gases to the atmosphere. The application of sediment microbial fuel cells (SMFCs) to paddy soil activates power-generating microorganisms and enhances organic matter biodegradation. In the present study, rice straw addition in SMFCs was examined to determine its effect on CH4 and CO2 emissions. Columns (height, 25 cm; inner diameter, 9 cm) with four treatments: soil without and with rice straw under SMFC and without SMFC conditions were incubated at 25°C for 70 days. Anodic potential values at 7 cm depth sediment were kept higher by SMFCs than those without SMFCs. Cumulative CH4 emission was significantly reduced by SMFC with straw amendment (p < 0.05) with no significant effect on CO2 emission. 16S rRNA gene analysis results showed that Firmicutes at the phylum, Closteridiales and Acidobacteriales at order level were dominant on the anode of straw-added SMFC, whereas Methanomicrobiales were in the treatment without SMFC, indicating that a certain group of methanogens were suppressed by SMFC. Our results suggest that the anodic redox environment together with the enrichment of straw-degrading bacteria contributed to a competitive advantage of electrogenesis over methanogenesis in straw-added SMFC system.

kn-title=Elucidation of Low-temperature Regulated Flavone Synthesis in Dahlia Variabilis and its Effects on Flower Color
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Dahlia (Dahlia variabilis) flower colors are diverse and are determined by the accumulation of flavonoids. Cultivars with dark red flowers accumulate more anthocyanins in their petals. Flower color changes such as color fading often occur in some cultivars. In this study, low minimum temperature regulated flower color fading and flavonoid synthesis in dahlia ‘Nessho’ were investigated. The pigment contents and expression levels of flavonoid biosynthesis genes were investigated in detail under several growing environments in which color fading occurs. Flavones accumulate more in color-faded orange flowers than in dark red ray florets. The expression analysis of the anthocyanin synthesis pathway genes indicated that the upregulation of flavone synthase (DvFNS) gene expression correlated with the high accumulation of flavones in color-faded petals. DvFNS expression was also detected in young leaves, and the expression level was higher in winter than in summer. Seasonal changes in DvFNS expression in young leaves significantly correlated with color fading in petals. The change in DvFNS expression in young unexpanded leaves of relatively high-sensitive plants was significantly higher than that of low-sensitive plants before and after treatment under inductive conditions. In conclusion, low-temperature-inducible changes in the flavonoid accumulation in petals was suggested to reflect a change in DvFNS expression occurring in the meristem prior to flower bud formation. This temporal DvFNS expression in young unexpanded leaves of ‘Nessho’ dahlia could be an insight for the selection and breeding of non-color fading plants.

en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Designing a cheap, competent, and durable catalyst for the oxygen evolution reaction (OER) is exceedingly necessary for generating oxygen through a water-splitting reaction. In this project, we have designed a ZIF-67-originated molybdenum-doped cobalt phosphide (CoP) using a simplistic dissolution–regrowth method using Na2MoO4 and a subsequent phosphidation process. This leads to the formation of an exceptional hollow nanocage morphology that is useful for enhanced catalytic activity. Metal–organic frameworks, especially ZIF-67, can be used both as a template and as a metal (cobalt) precursor. Molybdenum-doped CoP was fabricated through a two-step synthesis process, and the fabricated Mo-doped CoP showed excellent catalytic activity during the OER with a lower value of overpotential. Furthermore, the effect of the Mo amount on the catalytic activity has been explored. The best catalyst (CoMoP-2) showed an onset potential of around 1.49 V at 10 mA cm–2 to give rise to a Tafel slope of 62.1 mV dec–1. The improved catalytic activity can be attributed to the increased porosity and surface area of the resultant catalyst.

Unlike reactive oxygen species such as hydroxide or superoxide radicals that have been reported previously, oxidized carbon also produces stable carbon radicals under photo-irradiation. This has been confirmed through electron spin resonance. Among the various oxidized carbon materials synthesized, graphene oxide shows the largest number of carbon radicals when exposed to blue LED light. The light absorption capacity, high surface area, and unique structural characteristics of oxidized carbon materials offer a unique function for radical-mediated oxidative reactions.

kn-title=RKPM: Restricted Kernel Page Mechanism to Mitigate Privilege Escalation Attacks
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Kernel memory corruption attacks against operating systems exploit kernel vulnerabilities to overwrite kernel data. Kernel address space layout randomization makes it difficult to identify kernel data by randomizing their virtual address space. Control flow integrity (CFI) prevents unauthorized kernel code execution by verifying kernel function calls. However, these countermeasures do not prohibit writing to kernel data. If the virtual address of privileged information is specified and CFI is circumvented, the privileged information can be modified by a kernel memory corruption attack. In this paper, we propose a restricted kernel page mechanism (RKPM) to mitigate kernel memory corruption attacks by introducing restricted kernel pages to protect the kernel data specified in the kernel. The RKPM focuses on the fact that kernel memory corruption attacks attempt to read the virtual addresses around the privileged information. The RKPM adopts page table mapping handling and a memory protection key to control the read and write restrictions of the restricted kernel pages. This allows us to mitigate kernel memory corruption attacks by capturing reads to the restricted kernel page before the privileged information is overwritten. As an evaluation of the RKPM, we confirmed that it can mitigate privilege escalation attacks on the latest Linux kernel. We also measured that there was a certain overhead in the kernel performance. This study enhances kernel security by mitigating privilege escalation attacks through the use of software or hardware based restricted kernel pages.

kn-title=kdMonitor: Kernel Data Monitor for Detecting Kernel Memory Corruption
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Privilege escalation attacks through memory corruption via kernel vulnerabilities pose significant threats to operating systems. Although the extended Berkley Packet Filter has been employed to trace kernel code execution by inserting interrupts before and after kernel code invocations, it does not track operations before and after kernel data writes, thus hindering effective kernel data monitoring. In this study, we introduce a kernel data monitor (kdMonitor), which is a novel security mechanism designed to detect unauthorized alterations in the monitored kernel data of a dedicated kernel page. The kdMonitor incorporates two distinct methods. The first is periodic monitoring which regularly outputs the monitored kernel data of the dedicated kernel pages. The second is dynamic monitoring, which restricts write access to a dedicated kernel page, supplements any write operations with page faults, and outputs the monitored kernel data of dedicated kernel pages. kdMonitor enables real-time tracking of specified kernel data of the dedicated kernel page residing in the kernel's virtual memory space from the separated machine. Using kdMonitor, we demonstrated its capability to pinpoint tampering with user process privileged information stemming from privilege escalation attacks on the kernel. Through an empirical evaluation, we validated the effectiveness of kdMonitor in detecting privilege escalation attacks by user processes on Linux. Performance assessments revealed that kdMonitor achieved an attack detection time of 0.83 seconds with an overhead of 0.726 %.

kn-title=Safety of Adenosine-assisted Clipping Surgery for Unruptured Cerebral Aneurysms: Interim Results of a Single-center, Single-arm Study
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=The aim of this single-center, single-arm study was to evaluate the safety of adenosine-assisted clipping surgery for unruptured cerebral aneurysms. Five patients underwent aneurysmal clipping during adenosine-induced hypotension at ≤60 mmHg. The mean age of patients was 63.4±8.5 years, and the mean aneurysm size was 5.3±1.1 mm. The prevalence of patients with modified Rankin Scale scores of zero 30 days after surgery was 100%. The degree of aneurysm obliteration was complete in 4 patients and residual dome in 1 patient. The mean total dosage of adenosine was 37.4±18.8 mg. The mean duration of systolic blood pressure at ≤60 mmHg was 64.2±28.3 secs. No patients exhibited paroxysmal atrial fibrillation within 24 hours after adenosine administration or elevation of high-sensitivity cardiac troponin T on postoperative day 1. There was no reduction in either motor-evoked or somatosensory-evoked potential amplitude during surgery. Adenosine-induced hypotension is a safe procedure in clipping surgery for unruptured cerebral aneurysms.

kn-title=Evidence for the replication of a plant rhabdovirus in its arthropod mite vector
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Transmission of plant viruses that replicate in the insect vector is known as persistent-propagative manner. However, it remains unclear whether such virus-vector relationships also occur between plant viruses and other biological vectors such as arthropod mites. In this study, we investigated the possible replication of orchid fleck virus (OFV), a segmented plant rhabdovirus, within its mite vector (Brevipalpus californicus s.l.) using quantitative RT-qPCR, western blotting and next-generation sequencing. Time-course RT-qPCR and western blot analyses showed an increasing OFV accumulation pattern in mites after virus acquisition. Since OFV genome expression requires the transcription of polyadenylated mRNAs, polyadenylated RNA fractions extracted from the viruliferous mite samples and OFV-infected plant leaves were used for RNA-seq analysis. In the mite and plant datasets, a large number of sequence reads were aligned to genomic regions of OFV RNA1 and RNA2 corresponding to transcribed viral gene mRNAs. This includes the short polyadenylated transcripts originating from the leader and trailer regions at the ends of the viral genome, which are believed to play a crucial role in viral transcription/replication. In contrast, a low number of reads were mapped to the non-transcribed regions (gene junctions). These results strongly suggested that OFV gene expression occurs both in mites and plants. Additionally, deep sequencing revealed the accumulation of OFV-derived small RNAs in mites, although their size profiles differ from those found in plants. Taken together, our results indicated that OFV replicates within a mite vector and is targeted by the RNA-silencing mechanism.

kn-title=Shoot-Silicon-Signal protein to regulate root silicon uptake in rice
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Plants accumulate silicon to protect them from biotic and abiotic stresses. Especially in rice (Oryza sativa), a typical Si-accumulator, tremendous Si accumulation is indispensable for healthy growth and productivity. Here, we report a shoot-expressed signaling protein, Shoot-Silicon-Signal (SSS), an exceptional homolog of the flowering hormone “florigen” differentiated in Poaceae. SSS transcript is only detected in the shoot, whereas the SSS protein is also detected in the root and phloem sap. When Si is supplied from the root, the SSS transcript rapidly decreases, and then the SSS protein disappears. In sss mutants, root Si uptake and expression of Si transporters are decreased to a basal level regardless of the Si supply. The grain yield of the mutants is decreased to 1/3 due to insufficient Si accumulation. Thus, SSS is a key phloem-mobile protein for integrating root Si uptake and shoot Si accumulation underlying the terrestrial adaptation strategy of grasses.

kn-title=Meteoritic and asteroidal amino acid heterogeneity: Implications for planetesimal alteration conditions and sample return missions
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Carbonaceous chondrites (CC) and asteroid return samples contain amino acids (AA), which are essential for an origin of life on the early Earth and can provide important information concerning planetesimal alteration processes. While many studies have investigated AA from CC, separate studies have often found differing abundances for the same meteorite. Accordingly, analytical bias, differing terrestrial contamination levels and intrinsic sample heterogeneity have been proposed as potential reasons. However, current analytical techniques allow for the analysis of several mg-sized samples and can thus enable an investigation of AA heterogeneity within single meteorite specimens. Here, such an analytical technique is applied to characterise the AA in triplicate aliquots of three CCs. The results indicate that CCs are heterogenous in terms of their AA at the mm-scale. Furthermore, the results help to further constrain the effects of planetesimal alteration on organic matter and the requirements of future sample return missions that aim to obtain organic-bearing extraterrestrial materials.

en-abstract=
kn-abstract=In the cells of Chara corallina, permeant monohydric alcohols including methanol, ethanol and 1-propanol increased the hydraulic resistance of the membrane (Lpm−1). We found that the relative value of the hydraulic resistance (rLpm−1) was linearly dependent on the concentration (Cs) of the alcohol. The relationship is expressed in the equation: rLpm−1 = ρmCs + 1, where ρm is the hydraulic resistance modifier coefficient of the membrane. Ye et al. (2004) showed that membrane-permeant glycol ethers also increased Lp−1. We used their data to estimate Lpm−1 and rLpm−1. The values of rLpm−1 fit the above relation we found for alcohols. When we plotted the ρm values of all the permeant alcohols and glycol ethers against their molecular weights (MW), we obtained a linear curve with a slope of 0.014 M−1/MW and with a correlation coefficient of 0.99. We analyzed the influence of the permeant solutes on the relative hydraulic resistance of the membrane (rLpm−1) as a function of the external (π0) and internal (πi) osmotic pressures. The analysis showed that the hydraulic resistance modifier coefficients (ρm) were linearly related to the MW of the permeant solutes with a slope of 0.012 M−1/MW and with a correlation coefficient of 0.84. The linear relationship between the effects of permeating solutes on the hydraulic resistance modifier coefficient (ρm) and the MW can be explained in terms of the effect of the effective osmotic pressure on the hydraulic conductivity of water channels. The result of the analysis suggests that the osmotic pressure and not the size of the permeant solute as proposed by (Ye et al., J Exp Bot 55:449–461, 2004) is the decisive factor in a solute’s influence on hydraulic conductivity. Thus, characean water channels (aquaporins) respond to permeant solutes with essentially the same mechanism as to impermeant solutes.

kn-title=Unraveling the Cr Isotopes of Ryugu: An Accurate Aqueous Alteration Age and the Least Thermally Processed Solar System Material
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=The analysis of samples returned from the C-type asteroid Ryugu has drastically advanced our knowledge of the evolution of early solar system materials. However, no consensus has been obtained on the chronological data, which is important for understanding the evolution of the asteroid Ryugu. Here, the aqueous alteration age of Ryugu particles was determined by the Mn–Cr method using bulk samples, yielding an age of 4.13 + 0.62/−0.55 Myr after the formation of Ca–Al-rich inclusions (CAI). The age corresponds to 4563.17 + 0.60/−0.67 Myr ago. The higher 55Mn/52Cr, ε54Cr, and initial ε53Cr values of the Ryugu samples relative to any carbonaceous chondrite samples implies that its progenitor body formed from the least thermally processed precursors in the outermost region of the protoplanetary disk. Despite accreting at different distances from the Sun, the hydrous asteroids (Ryugu and the parent bodies of CI, CM, CR, and ungrouped C2 meteorites) underwent aqueous alteration during a period of limited duration (3.8 ± 1.8 Myr after CAI). These ages are identical to the crystallization age of the carbonaceous achondirtes NWA 6704/6693 within the error. The ε54Cr and initial ε53Cr values of Ryugu and NWA 6704/6693 are also identical, while they show distinct Δ'17O values. This suggests that the precursors that formed the progenitor bodies of Ryugu and NWA 6703/6693 were formed in close proximity and experienced a similar degree of thermal processing in the protosolar nebula. However, the progenitor body of Ryugu was formed by a higher ice/dust ratio, than NWA6703/6693, in the outer region of the protoplanetary disk.

kn-title=SHORT AND CROOKED AWN, encoding the epigenetic regulator EMF1, promotes barley awn development
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=The awn is a bristle-like extension from the tip of the lemma in grasses. In barley, the predominant cultivars possess long awns that contribute to grain yield and quality through photosynthesis. In addition, various awn morphological mutants are available in barley, rendering it a useful cereal crop to investigate the mechanims of awn development. Here, we identified the gene causative of the short and crooked awn (sca) mutant, which exhibits a short and curved awn phenotype. Intercrossing experiments revealed that the sca mutant induced in the Japanese cultivar (cv.) “Akashinriki” is allelic to the independently isolated moderately short-awn mutant breviaristatum-a (ari-a). Map-based cloning and sequencing revealed that SCA encodes the Polycomb group–associated protein EMBRYONIC FLOWER 1. We found that SCA affects awn development through the promotion of cell proliferation, elongation, and cell wall synthesis. RNA sequencing of cv. Bowman backcross-derived near-isogenic lines of sca and ari-a6 alleles showed that SCA is directly or indirectly involved in promoting the expression of genes related to awn development. Additionally, SCA represses various transcription factors essential for floral organ development and plant architecture, such as MADS-box and Knotted1-like homeobox genes. Notably, the repression of the C-class MADS-box gene HvMADS58 by SCA in awns is associated with the accumulation of the repressive histone modification H3K27me3. These findings highlight the potential role of SCA-mediated gene regulation, including histone modification, as a novel pathway in barley awn development.

kn-title=A high-protein diet-responsive gut hormone regulates behavioral and metabolic optimization in Drosophila melanogaster
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Protein is essential for all living organisms; however, excessive protein intake can have adverse effects, such as hyperammonemia. Although mechanisms responding to protein deficiency are well-studied, there is a significant gap in our understanding of how organisms adaptively suppress excessive protein intake. In the present study, utilizing the fruit fly, Drosophila melanogaster, we discover that the peptide hormone CCHamide1 (CCHa1), secreted by enteroendocrine cells in response to a high-protein diet (HPD), is vital for suppressing overconsumption of protein. Gut-derived CCHa1 is received by a small subset of enteric neurons that produce short neuropeptide F, thereby modulating protein-specific satiety. Importantly, impairment of the CCHa1-mediated gut-enteric neuronal axis results in ammonia accumulation and a shortened lifespan under HPD conditions. Collectively, our findings unravel the crosstalk of gut hormone and neuronal pathways that orchestrate physiological responses to prevent and adapt to dietary protein overload.

kn-title=Photochemical internalization of mRNA using a photosensitizer and nucleic acid carriers
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=mRNA has great potential for therapeutic applications because it can encode a variety of proteins and antigens, in addition to advantages over DNA in terms of gene expression without genomic integration, nuclear localization, or transcription. However, therapeutic applications of mRNA require safe and effective delivery into target cells. Therefore, we aimed to investigate photochemical internalization (PCI) as a promising strategy for delivering mRNA to target cells. In this strategy, mRNA is taken up into cells by endocytosis, accumulates in endosomes, and is released in a light-dependent manner from the endosomes using an endosome-accumulating photosensitizer, aluminum phthalocyanine disulfonate (AlPcS2a), in combination with nucleic acid carrier molecules. We compared the efficacy of various nucleic acid carriers, including branched polyethyleneimine (bPEI) and poly{N'-[N-(2-aminoethyl)-2-aminoethyl] aspartamide} (PAsp(DET)) under the same conditions for PCI-based mRNA delivery. Our results indicated that bPEI and PAsp(DET) at low N/P ratios exhibited efficient light-enhancement of mRNA expression by PCI with AlPcS2a. Notably, bPEI exhibited the highest light-dependent mRNA delivery among the carriers evaluated (including cationic polymers, cationic peptides, and lipids), whereas PAsp(DET) showed promise for clinical use because of its lower toxicity compared with bPEI. This PCI strategy allows effective cytosolic mRNA delivery at low N/P ratios, thereby reducing cationic carrier molecule-induced cytotoxicity. This method allows spatiotemporal control of protein expression and holds potential for novel light-dependent mRNA therapies. Overall, this study provided valuable insights into optimizing mRNA delivery systems for therapeutic applications.

kn-title=Efficient single-channel current measurements of the human BK channel using a liposome-immobilized gold probe
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=The human BK channel (hBK) is an essential membrane protein that regulates various biological functions, and its dysfunction leads to serious diseases. Understanding the biophysical properties of hBK channels is crucial for drug development. Artificial lipid bilayer recording is used to measure biophysical properties at the single-channel level. However, this technique is time-consuming and complicated; thus, its measurement efficiency is very low. Previously, we developed a novel technique to improve the measurement efficiency by rapidly forming lipid bilayer membranes and incorporating ion channels into the membrane using a hydrophilically modified gold probe. To further improve our technique for application to the hBK channel, we combined it using the gold probe with a liposome fusion method. Using a probe on which liposomes containing hBK channels were immobilized, the channels were efficiently incorporated into the lipid bilayer membrane, and the measured channel currents showed the current characteristics of the hBK channel. This technique will be useful for the efficient measurements of the channel properties of hBK and other biologically important channels.

kn-title=Relationship between media literacy and searching skills on report assignments in nursing students in Japan
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Objective: This study evaluates the relationship between information access and media literacy attitudes. We also assessed the impact of “Medical Literature Reading” on media literacy among Japanese university students. Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted from April 2–16 and from August 2–16, 2024. A self-reporting questionnaire, including the school year, was used to determine if participants had taken the “Medical Literature Reading” course and to identify the sources often used for reporting assignments and media literacy. Results: This study included 195 subjects. The differences in media literacy scores between school years were analyzed. The total scores of fourth-year students were significantly higher than those of first-year on the media literacy scale (p = 0.014). The differences in media literacy scores among students enrolled in “Medical Literature Reading” were analyzed. The scores on the media literacy scale (p = 0.006) were significantly higher in participants than in non-participants. The relationships among the three groups by sources used for report assignments, school years (χ2(6) = 42.101, p < 0.0001), and history of taking “Medical Literature Reading” (χ2(2) = 7.048, p = 0.030) were also analyzed. Conclusions: Media literacy improved with schooling. Certain report assignments and subjects related to information literacy were found to have affected media literacy. Combining continuing experience and knowledge can lead to improvements in media literacy.

kn-title=Clinical Characteristics of Vitamin D Deficiency Detected in Long COVID Patients During the Omicron Phase
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Background: To characterize the clinical significance of vitamin D deficiency (VDD) detected in long COVID, a retrospective observational study was performed for outpatients who visited our clinic during the period from May 2024 to November 2024. Methods: Clinical trends in long COVID patients diagnosed with VDD who showed serum concentrations of 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25-OHD) lower than 20 ng/mL were compared with those in long COVID patients in a non-deficient vitamin D (NDD) group. Results: Of 126 patients with long COVID, 97 patients (female: 50) who had been infected during the Omicron phase were included. Sixty-six patients (68%) were classified in the VDD group. The median serum concentrations of 25-OHD were 14.8 ng/mL in the VDD group and 22.9 ng/mL in the NDD group. There were no significant differences between the two groups in terms of age, gender, BMI, severity of COVID-19, period after infection and vaccination history. Although the levels of serum calcium and phosphate were not significantly different between the two groups, the percentages of patients in the VDD group who complained of dizziness, memory impairment, palpitation and appetite loss were larger than those in the NDD group. Of note, the patients who complained of palpitation showed significantly lower concentrations of serum 25-OHD than those in the patients without palpitation (median: 11.9 vs. 17.3 ng/mL). Moreover, patients in the VDD group had significantly higher scores for physical and mental fatigue as well as higher scores for depressive symptoms. Conclusions: Collectively, VDD is involved in clinical manifestations of long COVID, particularly symptoms of palpitation, fatigue and depression.

kn-title=Reversible cerebral vasoconstriction syndrome in idiopathic multicentric Castleman disease under treatment with tocilizumab
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Background Idiopathic multicentric Castleman disease (iMCD) is a rare polyclonal lymphoproliferative disorder characterised by systemic inflammation resulting from overproduction of interleukin 6 (IL-6). While iMCD primarily affects the lymph nodes and related tissues, it can also rarely involve the central nervous system.<br>
Case presentation We report the case of a 58-year-old female patient with at least a 3-year history of iMCD, who experienced acute thunderclap headaches due to reversible cerebral vasoconstriction syndrome (RCVS). RCVS occurred 3 months after initiating treatment with tocilizumab, a humanised anti-IL-6 receptor monoclonal antibody, and was accompanied by focal cortical subarachnoid haemorrhage (SAH). Elevated IL-6 levels were found in both serum and cerebrospinal fluid. MR angiography revealed multiple diffuse stenotic lesions in the bilateral middle and posterior cerebral arteries, which, along with bilateral cerebral oedema, resolved within 3 months. The diffuse nature of the cerebral vasospasm and the presence of bilateral brain oedema suggested that cerebral vasospasm was due to RCVS rather than SAH.<br>
Conclusions In patients with Castleman disease, RCVS may occur due to IL-6-dependent chronic cerebral vascular inflammation, either as a primary condition or as a complication of tocilizumab treatment.

kn-title=Metatranscriptomic Sequencing of Sheath Blight-Associated Isolates of Rhizoctonia solani Revealed Multi-Infection by Diverse Groups of RNA Viruses
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Rice sheath blight, caused by the soil-borne fungus Rhizoctonia solani (teleomorph: Thanatephorus cucumeris, Basidiomycota), is one of the most devastating phytopathogenic fungal diseases and causes yield loss. Here, we report on a very high prevalence (100%) of potential virus-associated double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) elements for a collection of 39 fungal strains of R. solani from the rice sheath blight samples from at least four major rice-growing areas in the Philippines and a reference isolate from the International Rice Research Institute, showing different colony phenotypes. Their dsRNA profiles suggested the presence of multiple viral infections among these Philippine R. solani populations. Using next-generation sequencing, the viral sequences of the three representative R. solani strains (Ilo-Rs-6, Tar-Rs-3, and Tar-Rs-5) from different rice-growing areas revealed the presence of at least 36 viruses or virus-like agents, with the Tar-Rs-3 strain harboring the largest number of viruses (at least 20 in total). These mycoviruses or their candidates are believed to have single-stranded RNA or dsRNA genomes and they belong to or are associated with the orders Martellivirales, Hepelivirales, Durnavirales, Cryppavirales, Ourlivirales, and Ghabrivirales based on their coding-complete RNA-dependent RNA polymerase sequences. The complete genome sequences of two novel RNA viruses belonging to the proposed family Phlegiviridae and family Mitoviridae were determined.

kn-title=Outcomes of allogeneic SCT versus tisagenlecleucel in patients with R/R LBCL and poor prognostic factors
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=This study investigated the efficacy of tisagenlecleucel (tisa-cel) and allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-SCT) for patients with relapsed and/or refractory (r/r) large B-cell lymphoma (LBCL) with poor prognostic factors, defined as performance status (PS) ≥ 2, multiple extranodal lesions (EN), chemorefractory disease, or higher lactate dehydrogenase (LDH). Overall, the allo-SCT group demonstrated worse progression-free survival (PFS), higher non-relapse mortality, and a similar relapse/progression rate. Notably, the tisa-cel group showed better PFS than the allo-SCT group among patients with chemorefractory disease (3.2 vs. 2.0 months, p = 0.092) or higher LDH (4.0 vs. 2.0 months, p = 0.018), whereas PFS in the two cellular therapy groups was similar among those with PS ≥ 2 or multiple EN. Survival time after relapse post-cellular therapy in patients with poor prognostic factors was 1.6 with allo-SCT and 4.6 months with tisa-cel. These findings were confirmed in a propensity score matching cohort. In conclusion, tisa-cel resulted in better survival than allo-SCT in patients with poor prognostic factors. However, patients who relapsed post-cellular therapy had dismal outcomes regardless of therapy. Further strategies are warranted to improve outcomes in these patients.

kn-title=Standardization of radiation therapy quality control system through mutual quality control based on failure mode and effects analysis
en-subtitle=

en-abstract=
kn-abstract=The advancement of irradiation technology has increased the demand for quality control of radiation therapy equipment. Consequently, the number of quality control items and required personnel have also increased. However, differences in the proportion of qualified personnel to irradiation techniques have caused bias in quality control systems among institutions. To standardize the quality across institutions, researchers should conduct mutual quality control by analyzing the quality control data of one institution at another institution and comparing the results with those of their own institutions. This study uses failure mode and effects analysis (FMEA) to identify potential risks in 12 radiation therapy institutions, compares the results before and after implementation of mutual quality control, and examines the utility of mutual quality control in risk reduction. Furthermore, a cost-effectiveness factor is introduced into FMEA to evaluate the utility of mutual quality control.

kn-title=A PRA-Rab trafficking machinery modulates NLR immune receptor plasma membrane microdomain anchoring and blast resistance in rice
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Nucleotide-binding leucine-rich repeat (NLR) receptors mediate pathogen effector-triggered immunity (ETI) in plants, and a subclass of NLRs are hypothesized to function at the plasma membrane (PM). However, how NLR traffic and PM delivery are regulated during immune responses remains largely unknown. The rice NLR PigmR confers broad-spectrum resistance to the blast fungus Magnaporthe oryzae. Here, we report that a PRA (Prenylated Rab acceptor) protein, PIBP4 (PigmR-INTERACTING and BLAST RESISTANCE PROTEIN 4), interacts with both PigmR and the active form of the Rab GTPase, OsRab5a, thereby loads a portion of PigmR on trafficking vesicles that target to PM microdomains. Microdomain-localized PigmR interacts with and activates the small GTPase OsRac1, which triggers reactive oxygen species signaling and hypersensitive response, leading to immune responses against blast infection. Thus, our study discovers a previously unknown mechanism that deploys a PRA-Rab protein delivering hub to ensure ETI, linking the membrane trafficking machinery with NLR function and immune activation in plants.

kn-title=Structural basis for molecular assembly of fucoxanthin chlorophyll a/c-binding proteins in a diatom photosystem I supercomplex
en-subtitle=
kn-subtitle=
en-abstract=
kn-abstract=Photosynthetic organisms exhibit remarkable diversity in their light-harvesting complexes (LHCs). LHCs are associated with photosystem I (PSI), forming a PSI-LHCI supercomplex. The number of LHCI subunits, along with their protein sequences and pigment compositions, has been found to differ greatly among the PSI-LHCI structures. However, the mechanisms by which LHCIs recognize their specific binding sites within the PSI core remain unclear. In this study, we determined the cryo-electron microscopy structure of a PSI supercomplex incorporating fucoxanthin chlorophyll a/c-binding proteins (FCPs), designated as PSI-FCPI, isolated from the diatom Thalassiosira pseudonana CCMP1335. Structural analysis of PSI-FCPI revealed five FCPI subunits associated with a PSI monomer; these subunits were identified as RedCAP, Lhcr3, Lhcq10, Lhcf10, and Lhcq8. Through structural and sequence analyses, we identified specific protein–protein interactions at the interfaces between FCPI and PSI subunits, as well as among FCPI subunits themselves. Comparative structural analyses of PSI-FCPI supercomplexes, combined with phylogenetic analysis of FCPs from T. pseudonana and the diatom Chaetoceros gracilis, underscore the evolutionary conservation of protein motifs crucial for the selective binding of individual FCPI subunits. These findings provide significant insights into the molecular mechanisms underlying the assembly and selective binding of FCPIs in diatoms.
