| Abstract | In the current World Health Organization classification of central nervous system tumors, comprehensive genetic and epigenetic analyses are considered essential for precise diagnosis. A 14-year-old male patient who presented with a cerebellar tumor was initially diagnosed with glioblastoma and treated with radiation and concomitant temozolomide chemotherapy after resection. During maintenance temozolomide therapy, a new contrast-enhanced lesion developed in the bottom of the cavity formed by the resection. A second surgery was performed, but the histological findings in specimens from the second surgery were different from those of the first surgery. Although genome-wide DNA methylation profiling was conducted using frozen tissue for a precise diagnosis, the proportion of tumor cells was insufficient and only normal cerebellum was observed. We then performed comprehensive genetic analysis using formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded sections, which revealed MYCN amplification without alteration of IDH1, IDH2, or Histone H3. Finally, the patient was diagnosed with pediatric-type diffuse high-grade glioma, H3-wildtype and IDH-wildtype. In conclusion, comprehensive genetic and epigenetic analysis should be considered in pediatric brain tumor cases. |

| Abstract | Acute exacerbation (AE) of interstitial lung disease (ILD) is a severe complication of lung resection in lung cancer patients with ILD (LC-ILD). This study aimed to assess the predictive value of comorbidities other than ILD for postoperative AE in patients with LC-ILD. We retrospectively evaluated 68 patients with LC-ILD who had undergone lung resection. We classified them into two groups: those who had developed postoperative AE within 30 days after resection and those who had not. We analyzed patient characteristics, high-resolution computed tomography findings, clinical data, pulmonary function, and intraoperative data. The incidence of postoperative AEs was 11.8%. In univariate analysis, performance status (PS), honeycombing, forced vital capacity (FVC), and high hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) levels without comorbidities were significantly associated with postoperative AE. Patients were divided into two groups according to cutoff levels of those four variables as determined by receiver operating characteristic curves, revealing that the rates of patients without postoperative AE differed significantly between groups. The present results suggested that preoperative comorbidities other than ILD were not risk factors for postoperative AE in patients with LC-ILD. However, a high preoperative HbA1c level, poor PS, low FVC, and honeycombing may be associated with postoperative AE of LC-ILD. |

| Abstract | Antimicrobial resistance is an emerging global threat that must be addressed using a multidisciplinary approach. This study aimed to raise awareness of high-level antimicrobial-resistant (AMR) pathogens in Japan by comparing their recent prevalences among prefectures, particularly Okayama. Data for the isolation proportions of meropenem-resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa, methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus, vancomycin-resistant Enterococcus faecium, cefotaxime-resistant Escherichia coli and Klebsiella pneumoniae, and levofloxacin-resistant E. coli and K. pneumoniae were collected from the Japan Nosocomial Infections Surveillance, a national database sponsored by the Japanese Ministry of Health, Labour, and Welfare, between 2018 and 2021. The average isolated proportions of the seven AMR pathogens were higher in Okayama compared to other prefectures: the worst (19.9%) was meropenem-resistant P. aeruginosa, the sixth worst (57.2%) was methicillin-resistant S. aureus, the eighth worst (3.3%) was vancomycin-resistant E. faecium, the second (37.8%) and fifth worst (17.6%) were cefotaxime-resistant E. coli and K. pneumoniae, respectively, and the fourth (49.9%) and third worst (8.7%) were levofloxacin-resistant E. coli and K. pneumoniae, respectively. Our study highlights the notably high prevalences of representative AMR pathogens in Okayama, suggesting the need for fundamental infection prevention and control by healthcare professionals, promoting antimicrobial stewardship, and educating undergraduates and postgraduates in Okayama. |

| Abstract | The novel coronavirus disease (COVID-19) pandemic that began in 2019 is yet to end, as of the summer of 2022. During the pandemic, community-acquired infections spread easily to healthcare-associated facilities, resulting in COVID-19 clusters among high-risk individuals that have been difficult to contain. Our regional base hospital also experienced a nosocomial cluster of COVID-19 in October 2020 that took 30 days to contain and affected 9 hospital staff and 14 patients. Six patients died due to COVID-19, and six died due to COVID-19-related complications. Two patients were discharged alive. Patient characteristics included ① advanced age (79.0±8.1 years), ② dementia (64.3%), ③ low Prognostic Nutrition Index (31.1 ±7.9), ④ zinc deficiency (50.2±13.1μg/dL), ⑤ vitamin C deficiency (1.6±1.9μg/mL), ⑥ elevated urea nitrogen-to-creatinine ratio (27.4±23.5), ⑦ anticancer and immunosuppressive drug use (78.6%), and ⑧ malignancy (75.6%). This cluster had a very high mortality rate, but the viral spread was contained in a short period. Algorithmizing the cluster response was crucial to controlling this cluster. We report on our actual cluster response algorithm, as well as our strategy and response procedure during the pandemic. |

| Abstract | This retrospective study aimed to investigate the validity of a 30-sec chair stand test (CS-30) as a simple test to assess exercise tolerance and clinical outcomes in 53 Japanese patients with esophageal cancer. There was a strong correlation between the results of CS-30 and the 6-min walk test (6MWT), the gold standard for assessing exercise tolerance (r=0.759). Furthermore, fewer patients whose CS-30 score was greater than 16 (the cutoff value defined based on 6MWT) experienced pneumonia in their postoperative course. These results suggest that exercise tolerance could be assessed using CS-30, and its cutoff value may be useful in predicting postoperative pneumonia risk. |

| Abstract | We investigated the link between prolonged sedentary bouts and all-cause mortality in patients on chronic hemodialysis, using a prospective cohort. A total of 104 outpatients on chronic hemodialysis from 2013 to 2019, aged 71.4±11.4 years, were enrolled. Prolonged sedentary bouts (≥ 30 min and ≥60 min) (min and bouts) and relative prolonged sedentary bouts (≥ 30 min and ≥ 60 min) (%) on the patients’ non-hemodialysis days were measured by a tri-accelerometer, and we also analyzed the patients’ clinical parameters. The relationship between prolonged sedentary bouts and all-cause mortality was evaluated by a survival analysis and the Cox proportional hazard model. Thirty-five patients died during the follow-up period. A Kaplan-Meier analysis detected significant differences in the survival rate between two groups stratified by the median for all prolonged sedentary-bout parameters. After the adjustment for confounding factors, all of the prolonged sedentary-bout parameters were determinant factors for all-cause mortality. These results indicate that prolonged sedentary bouts on non-hemodialysis days were closely related to all-cause mortality in the patients on hemodialysis. |

| Abstract | 本研究は，高等学校の総合的な探究の時間などで取り組まれている地域課題探究学習について，そのねらいを生徒のファシリテーション能力の育成として捉え直そうとするものである。そのために，地域課題探究学習をワークショップの形式で実施している高等学校の実践を調査した。実際には，プログラムの企画・準備段階から実践までのプロセスに支援者として参画するとともに，全体司会やグループ活動のリーダーを務めた生徒に対してアンケートや聞き取り調査を行った。調査の結果，ファシリテーション能力の育成を行うことで，個人の成長や将来を見通した指導の実現に繋がることが明らかになった。また，地域住民や中学生，大学生といった普段の学校生活で関わらない人々とともにワークショップをおこなうことで，大学生から刺激を受けたり，中学生をリードしたりしなければいけないという環境の変化が，ファシリテーション能力の育成をさらに促進させると考える。 |

| Abstract | This study aimed to develop a scale to measure the perceived difficulty experienced by nurses in treating and caring for patients diagnosed with gender dysphoria and examine its reliability and validity. We developed a 26-item preliminary scale through discussions with experts in gender dysphoria treatment. We administered a questionnaire including this scale to 1,010 nurses working at Okayama University Hospital and analyzed the data of 346 nurses who had been involved in the treatment of gender dysphoria and had no missing responses. A total of 20 items consisting of two factors, “relationship building” and “negative emotion for gender dysphoria,” were extracted by exploratory factor analysis, and we used them in the final version of the scale. Cronbach's alpha coefficient for the entire scale was 0.879, indicating a high degree of internal consistency. However, the correlations with a communication skills scale (ENDCOREs) and the Scale of Gender Conception were limited, and the external validity could not be proven. This scale may be useful for evaluating nursing practice and educational support for nurses; however, there is room for further study on the scale validation. |
