Abstract Paraplegia after an operation for acute aortic dissection Stanford type A (AADA) is fairly uncommon, and there is no consensus about optimal treatment. We present a case in which cerebrospinal fluid drainage (CSFD) and permissive hypertension were used for treatment of paraplegia. When the patient showed complete bilateral paraplegia after operation for AADA, we immediately began CSFD and maintained mean arterial blood pressure at over 90 mmHg. His neurological deficit gradually recovered, and he was eventually able to walk without support. The combination of CSFD and permissive hypertension could be a first-line emergent treatment for postoperative paraplegia after AADA surgery.

Abstract To investigate the association between serum miR-338-3p levels and neonatal acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) and its mechanism. The relative miR-338-3p expression in serum was detected by quantitative real-time RT-PCR. Interleukin-1beta (IL-1β), IL-6, and tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α) levels were detected by ELISAs. A receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis of serum miR-338-3p evaluated the diagnosis of miR-338-3p in neonatal ARDS. Pearson’s correlation analysis evaluated the correlation between serum miR-338-3p and neonatal ARDS clinical factors. Flow cytometry evaluated apoptosis, and a CCK-8 assay assessed cell viability. A luciferase assay evaluated the miR-338-3p/AKT3 relationship. The miR- 338-3p expression was decreased in neonatal ARDS patients and in lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-treated cells. The ROC curve showed the accuracy of miR-338-3p for evaluating neonatal ARDS patients. The correlation analysis demonstrated that miR-338-3p was related to PRISM-III, PaO2/FiO2, oxygenation index, IL-1β, IL-6, and TNF-α in neonatal ARDS patients. MiR-338-3p overexpression inhibited the secretion of inflammatory components, stifled cell apoptosis, and LPS-induced advanced cell viability. The double-luciferase reporter gene experiment confirmed that miR-338-3p negatively regulates AKT3 mRNA expression. Serum miR-338-3p levels were related to the diagnosis and severity of neonatal ARDS, which may be attributed to its regulatory effect on inflammatory response in ARDS.

Abstract This investigation aimed to uncover the impact of a long noncoding RNA, SET-binding factor 2 antisense RNA1 (SBF2-AS1) on the malignant progression of gastric cancer (GC) and to further explore its underlying mechanism. SBF2-AS1 expression was quantified by qRT-PCR in GC cell lines and GC tissues. In vitro loss-of-function studies of SBF2-AS1, accompanied by flow cytometry, CCK-8, and cell invasion tests, were applied to elucidate the impact of SBF2-AS1 on the tumor progression of GC cells. Finally, Western blotting and a luciferase assay were used to detect WNT/LRP5 signaling pathway activation. SBF2-AS1 was aberrantly expressed in GC cell lines (p<0.05) and GC tissues (p<0.05). Cell invasive and proliferative capabilities were inhibited via SBF2-AS1 knockdown, resulting in apoptosis of NCI-N87 and MKN74 cells. Additionally, online database analysis uncovered a positive correlation between SBF2-AS1 and the Wnt/LRP5 signaling pathway (p<0.05). SBF2-AS1 knockdown blocked the Wnt/LRP5 signaling pathway, whereas the effects of SBF2-AS1 knockdown on the malignant genotype of MKN74 as well as NCI-N87 cells were partially restored by triggering the Wnt/ LRP5 signaling pathway. High expression of SBF2-AS1 was found in GC, the malignant progression of which was repressed via SBF2-AS1 knockdown by inhibiting the Wnt/LRP5 signaling pathway.

Abstract This observational study aimed to clarify the long-term results of the combination of mizoribine (MZB), tacrolimus (TAC) and prednisolone as first-line therapy for lupus nephritis (LN). This was our institution’s standard therapy between 2009 and 2015, when we saw 36 patients with LN. When a patient thus treated achieved SLEDAI remission (= 0) and/or the prednisolone dose could be tapered to 5 mg/day, either MZB or TAC was stopped, and the other was continued for maintenance therapy. If treatment failure or relapse occurred, second-line therapy was introduced. At years 1 and 5, overall complete renal response and SLEDAI remission were 94% and 88%, and 50% and 62%, respectively. Excluding 2 cases lost to follow-up, medications after 5 years were as follows: 20 (59%) were stable on 1 drug (MZB or TAC), 11 (32%) required continuation of both drugs (MZB + TAC), and 3 (9%) required second-line therapy. The 5-year retention rate was 91% (non-secondline), with 0% of relapse in this group. Our first-line combination strategy showed high remission rates in the induction phase, and subsequent maintenance therapy demonstrated good outcomes for up to 5 years. Research that fine-tunes the order of therapeutic agents and institutes appropriate treatment goals may further improve long-term outcomes for patients with LN.

Abstract Eukaryotic genomes contain numerous copies of endogenous viral elements (EVEs), most of which are considered endogenous retrovirus (ERV) sequences. Over the past decade, non-retroviral endogenous viral elements (nrEVEs) derived from ancient RNA viruses have been discovered. Several functions have been proposed for these elements, including antiviral defense. This review summarizes the current understanding of nrEVEs derived from RNA viruses, particularly endogenous bornavirus-like elements (EBLs) and endogenous filovirus-like elements (EFLs). EBLs are one of the most extensively studied nrEVEs. The EBL derived from bornavirus nucleoprotein (EBLN) is thought to function as a non-coding RNA or protein that regulates host gene expression or inhibits virus propagation. Ebolavirus and marburgvirus, which are filoviruses, induce severe hemorrhagic fever in humans and nonhuman primates. Although the ecology of filoviruses remains unclear, bats are believed to be potential reservoirs. Based on the knowledge from EBLs, it is postulated that EFLs in the bat genome help to maintain the balance between filovirus infection and the bat’s defense system, which may partially explain why bats act as potential reservoirs. Further research into the functions of nrEVEs could reveal novel antiviral systems and inspire novel antiviral approaches.

Abstract Glioblastoma (GBM) is a fatal primary malignant brain tumor in adults. Despite decades of research, the prognosis for GBM patients is still disappointing. One major reason for the intense therapeutic resistance of GBM is inter- and intra-tumor heterogeneity. GBM-intrinsic transcriptional profiling has suggested the presence of at least three subtypes of GBM: the proneural, classic, and mesenchymal subtypes. The mesenchymal subtype is the most aggressive, and patients with the mesenchymal subtype of primary and recurrent tumors tend to have a worse prognosis compared with patients with the other subtypes. Furthermore, GBM can shift from other subtypes to the mesenchymal subtype over the course of disease progression or recurrence. This phenotypic transition is driven by diverse tumor-intrinsic molecular mechanisms or microenvironmental factors. Thus, better understanding of the plastic nature of mesenchymal transition in GBM is pivotal to developing new therapeutic strategies. In this review, we provide a comprehensive overview of the current understanding of the elements involved in the mesenchymal transition of GBM and discuss future perspectives.

Abstract The erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR) is a widely used marker of inflammation, but the detailed mechanisms underlying the ESR remain unclear. We retrospectively collected laboratory data from our hospital’s laboratory information system, and performed multiple linear regression analysis and correlation analysis to determine relationships between the ESR and other laboratory test parameters. The alpha-2, beta-2, and gamma fractions from serum protein electrophoresis, serum immunoglobulin (Ig) G, IgA, IgM, and complement C3 levels, plasma fibrinogen levels, and platelet count showed positive effects on the ESR; however, the serum albumin level showed negative effects. Since erythrocytes are negatively charged, an increase in positively charged proteins and a decrease in negatively charged albumin were suggested to increase the ESR. Notably, C-reactive protein (CRP) showed the third-strongest correlation with the ESR despite having no significant effect on the ESR. We also reviewed cases with discordant ESR and CRP levels to compare the disease profiles of high ESR/low CRP patients and low ESR/high CRP patients. The patients with high ESR/low CRP had a completely different disease profile from those with low ESR/high CRP. Since the ESR and CRP have different roles, they should be used as markers in a context-dependent manner.

Abstract This study examined the relationship between cognitive/structural social capital and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) among victims of heavy rain and flood. Participants were individuals aged≥18 years affected by the July 2018 heavy rainfall in the cities of Kurashiki and Soja, Japan, and living in temporary housing. We distributed five copies of a questionnaire to 1,991 households and received responses from 1,927 individuals (907 men, 1,008 women, 12 respondents of unspecified sex) in 1,029 households (51.7%). We estimated odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) for associations between high (vs. low) social capital and PTSD or other outcomes. After covariate adjustment, the odds of having PTSD were lower in participants with high cognitive social capital than those with low cognitive social capital (OR=0.346, 95%CI: 0.263-0.456). Elderly women with higher structural social capital tended to have lower PTSD odds than those with lower structural social capital (OR=0.671, 95%CI: 0.431-1.046). The opposite pattern was observed for elderly men (OR=1.315, 95%CI: 0.792-2.183). Cognitive social capital is a protective factor that may reduce PTSD or promote a favorable PTSD prognosis after heavy rainfall and flood events. The associations between structural social capital and PTSD differ by age and sex.

Abstract We assessed risk factors for postoperative urinary retention (UR) in elderly males with femoral bone fractures: 169 Japanese males (mean age 81.95 ± 1.19 years) who had undergone hip surgery at a municipal hospital (Toyama, Japan). A multiple logistic regression analysis was used to test possible risk factors for UR: age, body mass index, serum albumin, cognitive impairment, activities of daily living (ADL), and history of diabetes mellitus (DM). UR occurred in 24 (14.2%) of the 169 patients. A multivariate logistic regression analysis with age adjustment showed that ADL (odds ratio [OR] 3.88; 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.2-12.5, p=0.023) was significantly associated with the development of UR, and a history of DM showed marginal significance for UR occurrence (OR 0.36, 95%CI: 0.11-10, p=0.064). These results suggests that ADL is a risk factor for UR development in elderly males who have undergone surgery for femoral neck or trochanter fractures.

Abstract An 18-year-old male high school student presented to our clinic with bilateral blunt ocular trauma caused by an exercise resistance band (ERB) during a muscle-building exercise. Best-corrected decimal visual acuities (BCVAs) for right and left eyes were light perception and 0.15, respectively. The right eye was operated 10 days after injury for persistent vitreous hemorrhage, and the left eye 5 months later because of macular hole onset. After 36 months, the right eye showed extensive retinal degeneration (BCVA 0.04), and the left eye macular hole closure (BCVA 1.2). ERBs should be used cautiously as they can cause serious ocular trauma.
