Abstract
Background
Inflammatory status pre-percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) and post-PCI has been reported not only associated with poor prognosis, but also to impair renal function. Statins reduce cardiovascular events by lowering lipids and have anti-inflammatory impacts, but residual inflammatory risk (RIR) exists. It remains unclear that the synergistic effect of RIR and chronic kidney disease (CKD) on long-term clinical outcome in stable coronary artery disease (CAD) patients undergoing PCI in statin era.
Aim
The aim of this study was to investigate the long-term combined impact of RIR evaluating hs-CRP at follow-up and CKD among stable CAD patients undergoing PCI in statin era.
Methods
This is a single-center, observational, retrospective cohort study assessing consecutive 2,984 stable CAD patients who underwent first PCI from 2000 to 2016. We analyzed 2,087 patients for whom hs-CRP at follow-up (6–9 months later) was available. High residual inflammatory risk was defined as hs-CRP >0.6 mg/L according to the median value at follow up. Patients were assigned to four groups as Group1 (high RIR and CKD), Group2 (low RIR and CKD), Group3 (high RIR and non-CKD) or Group4 (low RIR and non-CKD). We evaluated all-cause death and major adverse cardiac events (MACE), defined as a composite of cardiovascular (CV) death, non-fatal myocardial infarction (MI) and non-fatal stroke.
Results
Of patients (83% men; mean age 67 years), there were 299 (14.3%) patients in group 1, 201 (9.6%) patients in group 2, 754 (36.1%) patients in group 3, and 833 (39.9%) patients in group 4. The median follow-up period was 5.2 years (IQR, 1.9–9.9 years). In total, 189 (frequency, 16.1%) cases of all-cause death and 128 (11.2%) MACE were identified during follow-up, including 53 (4.6%) CV deaths, 27 (2.4%) MIs and 52 (4.8%) strokes. The rate of all-cause death and MACE in group 1 was significantly higher than other groups (p<0.001, respectively). There was a stepwise increase in the incidence rates of all-cause death and MACE. After adjustment for important covariates, the presence of high RIR and/or CKD were independently associated with higher incidence of MACE and higher all-cause mortality. (shown on figure).
Conclusion
The presence of both high RIR and CKD conferred a synergistic adverse effect on the risk for long-term adverse cardiac events in patients undergoing PCI.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Clinical hypertension is associated with renal inflammation and elevated circulating levels of proinflammatory cytokines. IL-1 receptor antagonist (IL-1Ra) is one of the most important anti-inflammatory cytokines and plays a crucial role in inflammation. Inhibition of IL-1 may contribute to modulation of the Angiotensin II (AngII)-induced hypertension response. This study aimed to elucidate the effects of IL-1Ra and anti-IL-1beta antibody (01BSUR) on AngII-induced hypertension and renal inflammation.
Methods and results
To determine the contribution of IL-1Ra to AngII-induced renal inflammation, male wild-type (WT) and IL-1Ra-deficient (IL-1Ra−/−) mice were infused with AngII (1000ng/kg/min) using subcutaneous osmotic pumps for 14 days. We checked blood pressure, histological change, and several mRNA expressions 14 days after infusion. Fourteen days after infusion, systolic blood pressure (197±5 vs 169±9 mmHg, p<0.05) in IL-1Ra−/− mice significantly increased compared with WT mice. Furthermore, on day 14 of AngII infusion, plasma IL-6 was 5.9-fold higher in IL-1Ra−/− versus WT mice (p<0.001); renal preproendothelin-1 mRNA expression was also significantly higher in IL-1Ra−/− mice (p<0.05). To examine renal function, we analyzed 24-hour urinary protein excretion and serum levels of blood urea nitrogen, creatinine, and uric acid in IL-1Ra−/− and WT mice. On day 14 of Ang II infusion, all levels increased significantly in IL-1Ra−/− mice compared with WT mice, suggesting that IL-1Ra deficiency reduced renal function following Ang II infusion. In addition, renal histology revealed that glomerular injury (Figure upper panels: PAS staining) and tubulointerstitial fibrosis (Figure lower panels: Elastica Masson staining) increased significantly in Ang II-infused IL-1Ra−/− versus Ang II-infused WT mice. Finally, we administrated 01BSUR to both IL-1Ra−/− and WT mice, and 01BSUR treatment decreased AngII-induced hypertension (162±17 vs 204±6 mmHg, p<0.05) and renal damage (glomerular injury and fibrosis of the tubulointerstitial area) in both IL-1Ra−/− and WT mice compared with IgG2a treatment. These findings suggest that 01BSUR suppresses Ang II-induced inflammation and renal injury.
Conclusions
Inhibition of interleukin-1 by both endogenous IL-1Ra and exogenous 01BSUR decreased AngII-induced hypertension and renal damage in mice, suggesting suppression of IL-1 may provide an additional strategy to protect against renal damage in hypertensive patients.

Abstract
There is an increasing unmet need for successful immunotherapeutic interventions. Lymphocyte extravasation via tumor tissue endothelial cells (TECs) is required for lymphocyte infiltration into tumor sites. This study aimed to investigate the clinical significance of dysfunctional TECs in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) and identify chemical compounds that boost tumor-infiltrating lymphocyte (TIL) numbers. We performed immunohistochemical detection and clinicopathological analysis of VCAM-1 on TECs, which is essential for lymphocyte trafficking. We characterized the gene expression profiles of TECs from fresh PDAC tissues. We isolated compounds that upregulated VCAM-1 and E-selectin expression in TECs and examined their biological activities. Compared to endothelial cells from chronic pancreatitis tissue, TECs showed significantly lower VCAM-1 and E-selectin expression and significant weaknesses in lymphocyte adhesion and transmigration, resulting in decreased T cell infiltration around vessels. Patients with a relatively high percentage of VCAM-1+ vessels among all vessels in PDAC tissue had an improved prognosis. A bioinformatics survey demonstrated that TNFR1 signaling was involved in abnormal VCAM-1 and E-selectin expression in TECs. We screened compounds affecting TNFR1 signaling, and the IAP inhibitor, Embelin, induced these molecules on TECs and enhanced T cell adhesion to TECs and transmigration. Furthermore, in vivo, Embelin enhanced tumor-infiltrating T cell numbers, leading to an antitumor immune response. Embelin accelerates TIL infiltration and the antitumor immune response by recovering VCAM-1 expression in TECs. Our strategy may be a therapeutic approach for accelerating the immunotherapeutic response in immune-quiescent tumors, leading to clinical trials’ success.

Abstract
Human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)-targeted therapy has improved clinical outcomes in patients with HER2-positive breast and gastric cancers, although ineffective or recurrent cases are present. One reason for this is the heterogeneity of HER2 expression in cancer cells. The aim of this study was to investigate the clinicopathological characteristics and HER2 status of patients with biliary tract cancers (BTCs). We examined HER2 protein expression by immunohistochemistry, HER2 gene amplification by fluorescence in situ hybridization, and both HER2 protein and gene levels simultaneously by gene-protein assay. Samples were collected from 454 patients who underwent surgical resection for BTCs (110 intrahepatic cholangiocarcinomas [ICC], 67 perihilar extrahepatic cholangiocarcinomas [ECC-Bp], 119 distal extrahepatic cholangiocarcinomas [ECC-Bd], 80 gallbladder carcinomas [GBC], and 79 ampullary carcinomas [AVC]). HER2 status was assessed according to the guidelines for HER2 testing in gastroesophageal adenocarcinoma. HER2-positive status was detected in 14.5% of BTCs (3.7% of ICC, 3.0% of ECC-Bp, 18.5% of ECC-Bd, 31.3% of GBC, and 16.4% of AVC). Furthermore, HER2-positivity tended to correlate with low histological grade, tumor histology, and macroscopic features in certain tumors. HER2 heterogeneity was common and highly frequent (83%) in BTC cases. Reduced HER2 protein expression in the deeper invasive areas with simultaneous dedifferentiation was frequently observed in HER2-positive cancer cells. The findings of this study suggest that a large subgroup of HER2-positive BTC cases can be considered for HER2-targeted therapy. Moreover, the HER2 status in BTCs should be determined carefully using a sensitive approach toward larger cancer tissues.

Abstract
The expression of classical human leukocyte antigen class I antigens (HLA-I) on the surfaces of cancer cells allows cytotoxic T cells to recognize and eliminate these cells. Reduction or loss of HLA-I is a mechanism of escape from antitumor immunity. The present study aimed to investigate the clinicopathological impacts of HLA-I and non-classical HLA-I antigens expressed on pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) cells. We performed immunohistochemistry to detect expression of HLA-I antigens in PDAC using 243 PDAC cases and examined their clinicopathological influences. We also investigated the expression of immune-related genes to characterize PDAC tumor microenvironments. Lower expression of HLA-I, found in 33% of PDAC cases, was significantly associated with longer overall survival. Higher expression of both HLA-E and HLA-G was significantly associated with shorter survival. Multivariate analyses revealed that higher expression of these three HLA-I antigens was significantly correlated with shorter survival. Higher HLA-I expression on PDAC cells was significantly correlated with higher expression of IFNG, which also correlated with PD1, PD-L1 and PD-L2 expression. In vitro assay revealed that interferon gamma (IFNγ) stimulation increased surface expression of HLA-I in three PDAC cell lines. It also upregulated surface expression of HLA-E, HLA-G and immune checkpoint molecules, including PD-L1 and PD-L2. These results suggest that the higher expression of HLA-I, HLA-E and HLA-G on PDAC cells is an unfavorable prognosticator. It is possible that IFNγ promotes a tolerant microenvironment by inducing immune checkpoint molecules in PDAC tissues with higher HLA-I expression on PDAC cells.

Abstract
La based Co-Fe combined double perovskite (La1.8Pr0.2CoFeO6) was synthesized and the dielectric (zero-field and in-field), magnetic, x-ray absorption and Raman spectroscopy measurements have been investigated for La1.8Pr0.2CoFeO6 double perovskite. The existence of re-entrant cluster glass state is observed. The magneto-dielectric (MD) is found in two temperature regions (25-80 K and 125-275 K). It has been demonstrated that the observed MD at low and high temperatures are respectively due to the spin freezing and the spin-lattice coupling. Furthermore, the very large dielectric constant and the low loss suggest that La1.8Pr0.2CoFeO6 is very important from the application point of view.

Abstract
Pancreatic cancer is the fourth leading cause of cancer-related deaths in Japan. To identify risk loci, we perform a meta-analysis of three genome-wide association studies comprising 2,039 pancreatic cancer patients and 32,592 controls in the Japanese population. Here, we identify 3 (13q12.2, 13q22.1, and 16p12.3) genome-wide significant loci (P < 5.0 × 10−8), of which 16p12.3 has not been reported in the Western population. The lead single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) at 16p12.3 is rs78193826 (odds ratio = 1.46, 95% confidence interval = 1.29-1.66, P = 4.28 × 10−9), an Asian-specific, nonsynonymous glycoprotein 2 (GP2) gene variant. Associations between selected GP2 gene variants and pancreatic cancer are replicated in 10,822 additional cases and controls of East Asian origin. Functional analyses using cell lines provide supporting evidence of the effect of rs78193826 on KRAS activity. These findings suggest that GP2 gene variants are probably associated with pancreatic cancer susceptibility in populations of East Asian ancestry. Previous genome-wide association studies have identified risk loci for pancreatic cancer but were centered on individuals of European ancestry. Here the authors identify GP2 gene variants associated with pancreatic cancer susceptibility in populations of East Asian ancestry.

Abstract
Background:We previously reported the utility of open muscle biopsies in diagnosing vasculitis [1]. The number of open muscle biopsies performed at our department has increased to over 200. The purpose of the present study was to evaluate the diagnostic utility of vasculitis and the safety of the open muscle biopsies.Objectives:To clarify the diagnostic utility of vasculitis and the safety profile of the open muscle biopsy.Methods:We retrospectively examined all cases of open muscle biopsy performed between May 2012 and June 2018 in our department. The biopsy results, the presence or absence of adverse events, and blood test data at the time of the biopsy were extracted from the patients’ electronic medical records.Results:Between May 2012 and June 2018, 210 open muscle biopsies were performed, 120 of which were done for vasculitis diagnosis. Diagnostic histopathological findings were obtained in 42 of the 120 cases (35%). The definitive diagnosis in these cases was microscopic polyangiitis (30 cases), eosinophilic granulomatosis with polyangiitis (seven cases), granulomatosis with polyangiitis (one case), polyarteritis nodosa (three cases), and other vasculitis (one case). In 57 cases with myeloperoxidase-anti-neutrophil cytoplasmic antibody (MPO-ANCA) ≥ 10 U/ml, 31 cases (54.3%) showed histopathology of vasculitis. In six cases with protainase-3-ANCA (PR3-ANCA) ≥ 10 U/ml, histopathology of vasculitis was found in one case (16.7%).In all 210 open muscle biopsy cases, complications included minor wound dehiscence (11 cases) and small subcutaneous hematoma (six cases), which were able to be managed by local treatment. Albumin was significantly lower in the patients with wound dehiscence (mean 3.2 vs 2.7, p = 0.049)Serious complications included anaphylaxis due to local anesthesia (one case), compartment syndrome due to hematoma (one case), hematoma requiring surgical removal (one case), and arterial hemorrhage requiring surgical intervention (one case). The patients in the latter three hemorrhagic cases were receiving antiplatelet drugs.Conclusion:An open muscle biopsy is useful for diagnosing vasculitis, especially for MPO-ANCA-positive anca-associated vasculitis. Its safety profile is acceptable. Serious adverse events are rare, but the procedure should be performed carefully when patients are receiving antiplatelet drugs.References:[1]Nunokawa T. et al.

Abstract
Background:Temporal artery biopsy (TAB) is the gold standard for diagnosing giant cell arteritis (GCA). However, previous studies have reported that the discordance rate of TAB is 3-45%,i.e., in unliteral TAB, GCA may be overlooked in one in five patients, approximately. Evidence as to whether bilateral TAB should be performed initially or one-sided TAB is sufficient for diagnosing GCA is lacking.Objectives:To investigate the predictors of patients with GCA in whom one-sided TAB is sufficient.Methods:The present study was a cross-sectional, single center study conducted from April 1, 2011 to July 31, 2019 at Tokyo Metropolitan Tama Medical Center. Of all consecutive GCA cases for which bilateral TAB was performed, bilaterally positive cases and unilaterally positive cases were extracted as bilateral positive group (BPG) and unilateral positive group (UPG), respectively. GCA was defined in accordance with the classification criteria of the 1990 American College of Rheumatology, and GCA was diagnosed if no other etiology was found within six months after beginning of high-dose glucocorticoid treatment. Demographic, clinical and laboratory data were obtained from the medical records, and the BPG and the UPG were compared statistically in each variable. Statistical significance was defined asp< 0.05.Results:During study, 264 biopsies were performed for 145 cases, who suspected GCA and underwent TAB. The pathological positivity rate was 26.1% (68 / 264 biopsies). Of these, 53 cases had final diagnosis of GCA, in which 43 cases were biopsy proven GCA. Thirty-seven biopsy proven GCA with bilateral TAB were enrolled; 64.9% women; mean (SD) age 75 (8.9) years; median [IQR] TAB length 17.5 [13.0,20.0] mm; headache 54.1%; jaw claudication 45.9%; scalp tenderness 16.2%; temporal artery (TA) tenderness 32.4%; TA engorgement 32.4%; TA pulse abnormality 5.4%; visual symptoms 2.7%; a fever of 38.5°C or higher 40.5%; shoulder girdle pain 48.6%; imaging of aortitis or arteritis 40.5%; median [IQR] white blood cell 9,100 [7200, 12050] /μl; median [IQR] platelet cell 37.5 [27.0, 46.3] ×104/μl; median [IQR] C-reactive protein (CRP) 10.1 [3.9, 16.5] mg/dL; erythrocyte sedimentation rate [IQR] 105 [66, 129] mm/h. Thirty-one in 37 cases were positive bilaterally while 6 in 37 cases were positive unilaterally; and the discordance rate was 16.2%. The median sample length after formalin fixation was 19.0 mm for the BPG and 14.5 mm for the UPG (p= 0.171). The parameters above were compared between UPG and BPG. Of these, only the serum CRP value (mg/dL) differed statistically between groups, and the median value of the two groups was 10.6 and 6.5, respectively (median test:p= 0.031). To predict BPG, in whom unilateral TAB is sufficient for diagnosing GCA, the cut-off value of serum CRP with a specificity of 100% and a sensitivity of 61.3% was set at 9.3 mg/dL (ROC analysis: AUC 0.726).Conclusion:When the serum CRP level is 10 mg/dL or higher in GCA suspected patients, an unilateral TAB alone was sufficient for an accurate diagnosis.References:[1]Hellmich, B, et al.Ann Rheum Dis2020;79(1):19-30.[2]Breuer, GS, et al.J Rheumatol. 2009;36(4):794-796.[3]Czyz CN, et al.Vascular2019;27(4):347-351.[4]Durling B, et al.Can J Ophthalmol2014;49(2):157-161.Figure.Comparison of median CRP levels between unilaterally positive group and bilaterally positive group.Disclosure of Interests:None declared

Abstract
Background:Methods of preventing pneumocystis pneumonia (PCP) in systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) are controversial. Previous studies have verified the efficacy and safety of trimethoprim/sulfamethoxazole (TMP-SMX) in patients with rheumatic diseases1. However, as for SLE, some clinicians advise against prescribing TMP-SMX because sulfa allergy is reportedly more common in SLE than in other rheumatic diseases2, 3. Anecdotally, sulfonamides may also worsen SLE itself, but few data are available on lupus flares related to sulfonamides3.Objectives:This study aimed to assess the incidences of adverse effects and disease flare due to PCP prophylaxis with TMP-SMX in SLE patients.Methods:SLE patients seen at our hospital between September 2010 and April 2018 who received TMP-SMX as a PCP prophylaxis were enrolled. The clinical manifestations, treatment course, adverse drug reactions, and occurrence of lupus flares were retrospectively assessed from the medical records. The Naranjo adverse drug reaction probability scale4 was used to determine whether the reactions were induced by SMX-TMP. According to the British Isles Lupus Assessment Group (BILAG) 2004 index, a severe flare of lupus was defined as a development of a new grade A manifestation, and a moderate flare as a development of grade B manifestation following grade C, D or E. Two board-certificated rheumatologists reviewed the medical records in a blinded fashion to determine the reason for the flare, with disagreement resolved by consensus.Results:In total, 188 SLE patients were enrolled; of these, 117 (62.2%) had no adverse events and were able to continue taking SMX-TMP as needed. Seventy-one patients (37.8%) stopped SMX-TMP due to suspected adverse drug reactions, including fever, rash, liver function disorder, and cytopenia. The Naranjo scale indicated “definite” in 4, “probable” in 39, and “possible” in 28. Eighteen-patients restarted the SMX-TMP and 9 patients could continue the prophylaxis without adverse effects. Five patients were hospitalized to treat the adverse events: 3 with drug rash (concomitant use of hydroxychloroquine in 2), 1 with hypersensitivity (concomitant use of azathioprine) and 1 with hyponatremia, respectively.Lupus flares occurred in 10 patients (5.3%) within one month after the start of the the SMX-TMP prophylaxis. Macrophage activation syndrome (MAS) or neuropsychiatric SLE occurred in 9 of them. Of 188 cases, 2 patients (1.1%) developed a new onset of MAS during the stable clinical course as the flare, which was considered due to SMX-TMP. Confounding factors, including high disease activity and the reduction of glucocorticoids, were identified in other 8 flares.Conclusion:PCP prophylaxis with SMX-TMP was tolerable in most SLE patients. However, a small number of SLE patients developed severe adverse effects or disease flares due to the SMX-TMP.References:[1]Park JW, et al.

Abstract
Background:Pairing Janus kinase (JAK) 1/JAK3 signaling mediates lymphocyte proliferation and differentiation while pairing JAK2/JAK2 signaling is essential in myelopoiesis, erythropoiesis, and platelet production by facilitating signaling mediated by granulocyte-macrophage colony stimulating factor and erythropoietin. Tofacitinib (TOF) preferentially inhibits JAK1 and JAK3, while baricitinib (BAR) inhibits JAK1 and JAK2in vitro(1). However, the difference in the efficacy and the clinical courses between TOF and BAR in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) remains unclear.Objectives:The objective of this study was to compare TOF and BAR in efficacy and changes in peripheral blood cell counts. We hypothesized that the efficiency of BAR was related to the decline in the blood cell counts, but that of TOF was not in patients with RA.Methods:We conducted a multicenter, 24 week-retrospective observational study. All RA patients received TOF (n = 43) or BAR (n = 26) treatment at Tama-Hokubu Medical Center and Tama Medical Center from December 2013 to March 2019 were included.Results:Baseline characteristics were similar between both groups; age 59.1 and 65.0 years old, disease duration 164.1 and 111.7 months, C-reactive protein 1.98 and 2.22 mg/ml, rheumatoid factor positive 76.7 % and 84.0 %, anti-citrullinated peptide antibody positive 78.9 % and 78.8 %, methotrexate combination 81.4 % and 69.2 %, the number of previous treatment of biologic or targeted disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs were 2.7 and 2.8, for TOF and BAR, respectively (mean).Simplified Disease Activity Index (SDAI) at baseline were similar between the groups (TOF 20.77, BAR 19.15). There was no significant difference in efficacy between the both groups at week 24 (SDAI remission: TOF 3 (7%), BAR 6 (23.1%), p = 0.054, SDAI low disease activity (LDA): TOF 21 (48.8%), BAR 17 (65.4%), p = 0.181).Among those who achieved SDAI LDA at week 24 in the BAR group, significant decrement of white blood cell (WBC) counts at week 12 and 24 and of neutrophil counts at week 4, 12 and 24 were observed (p < 0.05, Table). These decrements of cell count were not observed in patients who did not achieve LDA or in patients in the TOF group. Platelets and hemoglobin (data not shown) had no significant change in all groups.Conclusion:Clinical efficacy of TOF and BAR in RA was comparable in our cohort. A significant decrease of WBCs and neutrophils was associated with LDA achievement at week 24 in the BAR group. This could be explained by the inhibition of myelopoiesis through JAK2 signaling.References:[1]Winthrop, K.Nat Rev Rheumatol13,234–243 (2017)Table 1.Description of the three clusterstofacitinibbaricitinibweekLDApnot LDApLDApnot LDApWhite Blood Cells[/µl]06821 ± 24026041 ± 26127994 ± 43097886 ± 251346247 ± 1905.2546465 ± 2440.3446706 ± 2499.0597143 ± 1526.363126480 ± 1949.4975871 ± 2070.2176470 ± 2867.0317383 ± 2963.356246733 ± 2297.8586450 ± 3001.4286418 ± 2875.0246833 ± 1021.454Neutrophils[/µl]04888 ± 23993982 ± 23006221 ± 40856221 ± 408544243 ± 1655.2104298 ± 2100.4614548 ± 2578.0155923 ± 2716.294124261 ± 1843.3243617 ± 1869.2364542 ± 3062.0195429 ± 3055.311244487 ± 2243.6574547 ± 2847.1904225 ± 2900.0084474 ± 1396.207Lymphocytes[/µl]01419 ± 6511305 ± 4891370 ± 4161395 ± 48541515 ± 544.3571502 ± 514.0391730 ± 659.0131530 ± 652.484121537 ± 555.5231327 ± 664.9961569 ± 572.0111453 ± 401.832241511 ± 598.6971143 ± 378.0921792 ± 699.0111836 ± 710.109Platelets[104/µl]026.9 ± 9.123.7 ± 6.630.3 ± 11.226.9 ± 7.4425.5 ± 8.9.29123.8 ± 6.6.94030.5 ± 4.6.94027.3 ± 10.8.7981224.7 ± 7.4.26125.6 ± 7.5.20933.1 ± 8.3.20927.0 ± 9.3.9052426.3 ± 8.1.93023.3 ± 6.1.96133.4 ± 6.9.96133.0 ± 4.4.063Data are mean ± standard deviation.

Abstract
The angle resolved photo-emission spectroscopy (ARPES) study and magneto-transport properties of Bi2Cu x Te3-x have been investigated. ARPES study indicates the clear existence of surface states in the as-prepared samples. The estimated bandgap from ARPES is found to be ∼5 meV and 16 meV respectively for x = 0.03 and x = 0.15 samples. Presence of larger Cu concentration (x = 0.15) introduces magnetic ordering. Observed non-linearity in the Hall data is due to the existence of anomalous Hall effect which can be attributed to the 2D transport. The observed magneto-transport features might be related to the surface carriers which is confirmed by ARPES study.

Abstract
BACKGROUND A right-sided round ligament (RSRL) is a rare, congenital anomaly of the intrahepatic portal vein, with a reported frequency of 0.2%-1.2%. For patients with perihilar cholangiocarcinoma associated with an RSRL, an accurate understanding of the vascular and biliary anatomy is indispensable.
CASE SUMMARY We report a 70-year-old male with perihilar cholangiocarcinoma associated with an RSRL. After percutaneous transhepatic embolization of the left and anterior portal branches, we conducted a left trisectionectomy of the liver with extrahepatic bile duct resection and hepaticojejunostomy. The postoperative course was uneventful, and R0 resection was achieved. When the liver volume of each section was compared between 7 patients with an RSRL and 20 patients with normal portal vein anatomy, the posterior section in RSRL patients was significantly larger than that in patients with normal portal vein anatomy (median: 457 mL vs 306 mL, P = 0.031). In patients with perihilar cholangiocarcinoma associated with an RSRL, left trisectionectomy has several surgical advantages: (1) The posterior branch of the portal vein often ramifies independently, and the division of the portal vein is easily conducted; (2) A relatively large amount of remnant liver can be retained; and (3) The anatomy of the posterior branch of the Glissonian pedicle is similar to that in patients with normal anatomy.
CONCLUSION In patients with an RSRL and perihilar cholangiocarcinoma that does not involve the posterior section, left trisectionectomy may be a favorable choice.

Abstract
Reaction of d-camphor p-toluenesulfonylhydrazone with t-butoxide and elemental selenium in dimethylformamide at an elevated temperature afforded a stable compound having a unique 1,6,6αλ4-triselenapentalene ring and 4 H-selenopyran-4-selones along with dialkenyl diselenide, dibornylenes, and 1,2,5-triselenepin, and the structural confirmation of these products were carried out by X-ray crystallographic analysis. The sterically crowded 1,6,6aλ4-triselenapentalene ring fused with two bornane sleketons was stable enough under aerobic exposure and was inactive toward sodium borohydride reduction but was converted into 1,2-diselenole derivative through m-chloroperbenzoic acid oxidation.

Abstract
Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is the fourth leading cause of cancer deaths worldwide. The high mortality rate in HCC is largely due to the difficulty of early detection. In this study, to improve patient outcomes, serum samples from 345 patients with HCC, 46 patients with chronic hepatitis (CH), 93 patients with liver cirrhosis (LC), and 1,033 healthy individuals were analyzed with microRNA (miRNA) microarrays. We investigated the diagnostic potential of circulating miRNAs in serum and developed a detection model of HCC, including early stage. A diagnostic model was constructed based on the expression levels of a combination of miRNAs in a discovery set. We selected 52 miRNAs that had altered expressions according to disease progression status, established the diagnostic model with a combination of eight miRNAs in the discovery set, and tested the model in a validation set. The diagnostic values for discriminating cancer from HCC at‐risk control samples were as follows: area under the curve, 0.99; sensitivity, 97.7%; specificity, 94.7%. With this model, 98% of stage I HCC cases were detected; these results were much better than those observed from conventional methods. Conclusion: Circulating miRNAs could serve as biomarkers for the accurate detection of HCC. Because the diagnostic accuracy was maintained even in stage I, this may represent an accurate detection method even for early stage HCC.

Abstract
Kawasaki disease (KD) is the leading cause of acquired heart disease in children. In addition to coronary artery abnormalities, aneurysms and myocarditis, acute KD is also associated with echocardiogram (ECG) abnormalities in 40-80% of patients. Here, we show that these ECG changes are recapitulated in the Lactobacillus casei cell wall extract (LCWE)-induced KD vasculitis mouse model. LCWE-injected mice developed elevated heart rate and decreased R wave amplitude, with significant differences in prolonged ventricular repolarization. LCWE-injected mice developed cardiac ganglion inflammation, that may affect the impulse-conducting system in the myocardium. Furthermore, serum nerve growth factor (NGF) was significantly elevated in LCWE-injected mice, similar to children with KD vasculitis, associated with increased neural remodeling of the myocardium. ECG abnormalities were prevented by blocking interleukin (IL)-1 signaling with anakinra, and the increase in serum NGF and cardiac neural remodeling were similarly blocked in Il1r1-/- mice and in wild-type mice treated with anakinra. Thus, similar to clinical KD, the LCWE-induced KD vasculitis mouse model also exhibits electrophysiological abnormalities and cardiac neuronal remodeling, and these changes can be prevented by blocking IL-1 signaling. These data support the acceleration of anti-IL-1 therapy trials to benefit KD patients.

Abstract
The pseudogap, d-wave superconductivity and electron-boson coupling are three intertwined key ingredients in the phase diagram of the cuprates. Sr_{2}IrO_{4} is a 5d-electron counterpart of the cuprates in which both the pseudogap and a d-wave instability have been observed. Here, we report spectroscopic evidence for the presence of the third key player in electron-doped Sr_{2}IrO_{4}: electron-boson coupling. A kink in nodal dispersion is observed with an energy scale of ∼50 meV. The strength of the kink changes with doping, but the energy scale remains the same. These results provide the first noncuprate platform for exploring the relationship between the pseudogap, d-wave instability, and electron-boson coupling in doped Mott insulators.

Abstract
The prevalence of germline mutations in patients with biliary tract carcinoma (BTC) remains unclear. Here, we investigated the prevalence and types of germline mutations in patients with BTC. We reviewed 269 patients with pathologically proven BTC and collected clinical characteristics, including medical and family histories. Additionally, we evaluated germline variants in 21 genes associated with hereditary predisposition for cancer by targeted sequencing in patients meeting ≥1 of the following criteria: 1) hereditary breast and/or ovarian cancer (HBOC) testing criteria modified for BTC, 2) Revised Bethesda Guidelines (RBGs) modified for BTC (modified RBG), 3) familial BTC criteria, or 4) young BTC criteria. Among the 269 patients, 80 met at least one criterion. Three pathogenic mutations in three patients were identified: two in BRCA2 and one in BRCA1. Among the 16 patients meeting modified HBOC testing criteria, 2 harbored germline BRCA2 mutations, and 1 harbored a germline BRCA1 mutation. However, no mutation in mismatch-repair genes were detected, despite 63 patients meeting modified RBG screening criteria and 18 qualifying as young BTC patients. We detected high prevalence of pathogenic germline mutations in BRCA1/2 and none in mismatch-repair genes in BTC patients following enrichment according to family or medical history in this study.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE This study aimed to investigate the risk factors of hydroxychloroquine (HCQ)-induced hypersensitivity in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) and to propose a simple dose-escalation regimen in cases of mild HCQ-induced hypersensitivity. METHODS We identified patients with SLE who started HCQ between 2009 and 2018 and cases of HCQ-induced hypersensitivity by reviewing the electronic medical charts. A simple dose-escalation regimen, starting at 40 mg/day with weekly increments of 40 mg/day to 200 mg/day, was used in patients with HCQ-induced hypersensitivity who did not require hospitalization or systemic steroid therapy. We then compared the clinical parameters of patients with and without HCQ-induced hypersensitivity and evaluated the success of our dose-escalation regimen. RESULTS We enrolled 302 patients with SLE and identified 25 cases of HCQ-induced eruption (8.3%). The mean Naranjo score of these patients was 5.1 ± 1.4 (min 3, max 8), and all 25 patients received a 'possible' (9) or 'probable' (16) score. A mild, generalized, maculopapular rash occurred in 24 patients, and urticaria occurred in one patient at 24 days (interquartile range 15-40 days) after the start of treatment. The proportion of cyclophosphamide use, glucocorticoid consisting of prednisolone 20 mg/day or more, and initiation of SMX-TMP within 28 days were higher in patients with skin eruptions. On multivariate analysis, only cyclophosphamide use was identified as a risk factor of HCQ-induced hypersensitivity (odds ratio = 12.3 (95% confidential interval 1.4-14.3)). Thirteen of the 14 patients on the dose-escalation regimen (92.9%) tolerated continued HCQ treatment. One patient re-experienced eruptions on day 10 day after starting HCQ. CONCLUSIONS Mild late reactions are common in HCQ-induced hypersensitivity. A simpler dose-escalation regimen enables safe and easier reintroduction of HCQ but should not be applied to patients with immediate reactions or moderate late reactions.

Abstract
Background
Left ventricular (LV) remodeling, through excessive inflammation, leads to heart failure. Exercise (Ex) training is associated with a risk reduction in heart failure through direct and indirect mechanisms by which Ex contributes an anti-inflammatory effect. During Ex, contracting muscle fibers release myokines, including interleukins (ILs), tumor necrosis factor α (TNF-α), follistatin-like protein 1 (FSTL-1), and fibroblast growth factor 21 (FGF-21), into the bloodstream. These myokines may have beneficial effects on other damaged organs, such as an infarcted myocardium, through anti-inflammatory effects. However, the exact mechanisms of the anti-inflammatory effects of voluntary Ex in myocardial infarction (MI) are poorly understood. Therefore, we investigated the effect of voluntary Ex on cardiac remodeling and inflammation, the relationship between cardiac remodeling and skeletal muscle (SKM) response, and circulating myokine levels in a mouse model of MI.
Methods
Twelve-week-old male C57BL/6J mice were used and divided into the following 4 groups: sham operation (Sham), MI, Sham+Ex, and MI+Ex. MI was induced by ligation of the left anterior descending coronary artery. Ex groups began voluntary wheel running for 4 weeks after the operation. An echocardiography was performed at baseline and 4 weeks after the operation. The mRNA levels in the LV infarcted area and SKM were measured with RT-PCR and western blot analysis. Plasma levels of myokines were also measured with immunoassays.
Results
Four weeks after MI induction, echocardiographic evaluation showed that the MI mice had a larger LV end-diastolic diameter (LVEDD) and end-systolic diameter (LVESD) than the Sham mice. The MI mice also showed higher mRNA levels of TNF-α, IL-1β, IL-6, and IL-10 in the LV tissue when compared to the Sham mice. These changes were significantly ameliorated in the MI+Ex mice. Interestingly, in the MI+Ex mice, mRNA levels of IL-6, IL-1β, FSTL-1, and FGF-21 in the SKM were significantly higher than in the MI mice, while there were no significant differences in TNF-α and IL-10 levels in all groups. Similarly, protein expression levels of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma coactivator 1-alpha, sirtuin-1, and mitochondrial transcriptional factor A of mitochondrial function markers in SKM were also significantly higher in the MI+Ex mice than in the MI mice. Furthermore, there were significant correlations between plasma levels of IL-1β, but not other myokines, and LVEDD, and LVESD. In addition, there was also a significant correlation between the SKM IL-1β level and LVESD in the Sham+Ex mice (all, P<0.05).
Conclusions
Amelioration of cardiac remodeling and inflammation by voluntary Ex is associated with increased myokines, especially IL-1β, in a MI mouse model. These results suggest that increased myokine levels, through voluntary exercise, may play an important role in the prevention of cardiac remodeling after MI.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Advanced glycation end-products, indicated by skin autofluorescence (SAF) levels, could be prognostic predictors of all-cause and cardiovascular mortality in patients with diabetes mellitus (DM) and renal disease. However, the clinical usefulness of SAF levels in patients with heart failure (HF) who underwent cardiac rehabilitation (CR) remains unclear.
Purpose
The purpose of this study was to investigate the prognostic value of SAF levels in patients with HF who underwent CR.
Methods
This study enrolled 204 consecutive patients with HF who had undergone CR at our university hospital between November 2015 and October 2017. Clinical characteristics and anthropometric data were collected at the beginning of CR. SAF levels were noninvasively measured with an autofluorescence reader. The major adverse cardiovascular event (MACE) was a composite of all-cause mortality and unplanned hospitalization for HF. Follow-up data concerning primary endpoints were collected until November 2018.
Results
Patients' mean age was 68.1 years, and 61% were males. Patients were divided into two groups according to the median SAF levels (high and low SAF groups). Patients in the high SAF group were significantly older, had a higher prevalence of chronic kidney disease, and histories of coronary artery bypass surgery; however, there were no significant between-group differences in sex, prevalence of DM, left ventricular ejection fraction, and physical function. During a median follow-up period of 623 days, 25 patients experienced all-cause mortality and 34 were hospitalized for HF. Kaplan–Meier analysis showed that patients in the high SAF group had a higher incidence of MACE (log-rank P<0.05), whereas when patients were divided into two groups according to the median hemoglobin A1c level, no significant between-group difference was observed for the incidence of MACE (Figure). After adjusting for confounding factors, Cox regression multivariate analysis revealed that SAF levels were independently associated with the incidence of MACE (hazard ratio: 1.74, 95% confidence interval: 1.12–2.65, P<0.05).
Figure 1
Conclusion
SAF levels were significantly associated with the incidence of MACE in patients with HF and may be useful for risk stratification in patients with HF who undergo CR.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
IκBNS is one of the nuclear IκB proteins and regulates a subset of Toll-like receptor (TLR) dependent genes. LPS acts as extremely strong stimulator of innate immunity. We tried to investigate whether stimulation of innate immunity could promote atherosclerosis in the IκBNS-deficient atherogenic mice. However all IκBNS-deficient mice died of LPS challenge at a dose of which almost all wild-type mice survived, because IκBNS-deficient mice are highly sensitive to LPS-induced endotoxin shock. Then, we decided to use a cholate-containing high fat diet (HFD(CA(+))), which has been widely used as an atherogenic diet in mice. Furthermore, HFD(CA(+)) has been shown to induce TLR4 mediated early inflammatory response. The present study aims to clarify the lack of IκBNS promotes atherogenesis in LDL receptor-deficient (LDLr−/−) mice fed HFD(CA(+)) compared with those fed a cholate-free HFD (HFD(CA(−)).
Methods and results
Mice that lacked IκBNS (IκBNS−/−) were crossed with LDLr−/− mice and formation of atherosclerotic lesions was analyzed after 6 weeks consumption of HFD(CA(+)) or HFD(CA(−)). The extent of atherosclerosis in the aorta (en face) was significantly increased in IκBNS−/−/LDLr−/−(CA(+)) mice compared with others after 6-week consumption of HFD (p<0.01) (Figure). Interestingly, HFD(CA(−)) did not induce significant atherosclerotic lesions in IκBNS−/−/LDLr−/− compared with LDLr−/− mice after 6-week consumption (Figure). Immunostaining of aortic root lesion revealed that HFD(CA(+)) significantly increased positive area of Mac-3 (macrophage) by 1.5-fold (p=0.01) and TLR4, interleukin-6 (IL-6) expression by 1.7-fold (P<0.05) and 1.5-fold (p<0.05) respectively in IκBNS−/−/LDLr−/− (CA(+)) compared to LDLr−/− (CA(+)) mice. Furthermore, active STAT3 (pSTAT3)-positive cells were significantly increased by 1.7-fold in the atherosclerotic lesions of IκBNS−/−/LDLr−/− (CA(+)) compared with LDLr−/− (CA(+)) mice (p<0.01). TLR4 positive areas, IL-6 positive areas, and pSTAT3 positive cells were overlapped with Mac-3, indicating that TLR4-IL-6-STAT3 axis was activated in macrophages in IκBNS−/−/LDLr−/− (CA(+)) mice. On the other hand, HFD(CA(−)) could not induce any difference in these immunoreactivities of arteriosclerotic lesions between IκBNS−/−/LDLr−/− (CA(−)) compared with LDLr−/− (CA(−)) mice. These findings suggest that IκBNS deficiency and HFD(CA(+)) promote atherogenesis in LDLr−/− mice via TLR4/IL-6/STAT3 pathway. Finally, we show the monocytes from peripheral blood of IκBNS−/−/LDLr−/− (CA(+)) mice were found to contain the most mounts of Ly6Chi among four groups, suggesting that lack of IκBNS enhances inflammation in the response HFD(CA(+)) feeding and thereby influence atherogenesis in IκBNS−/−/LDLr−/− mice.
Aortic root atherosclerotic lesions
Conclusions
The present study is the first to demonstrate that the activation of innate immune system using HFD(CA(+)) induced significant inflammation and atherogenesis in IκBNS−/−/LDLr−/− compared with LDLr−/− mice.

Abstract
Electronic structure of Pr2CoFeO6 (at 300 K) was investigated by x-ray photoemission spectroscopy (XPS) and x-ray absorption spectroscopy techniques. All three cations, i.e. Pr, Co and Fe were found to be trivalent in nature. XPS valance band analysis suggested the system to be insulating in nature. The analysis suggested that Co3+ ions exist in low spin state in the system. Moreover, Raman spectroscopy study indicated the random distribution of the B-site ions (Co/Fe) triggered by same charge states. In temperature-dependent Raman study, the relative heights of the two observed phonon modes exhibited anomalous behaviour near magnetic transition temperature T N ~ 270 K, thus indicating towards interplay between spin and phonon degrees of freedom in the system. Furthermore, clear anomalous softening was observed below T N which confirmed the existence of strong spin-phonon coupling occurring for at least two phonon modes of the system. The line width analysis of the phonon modes essentially ruled out the role of magnetostriction effect in the observed phonon anomaly. The investigation of the lattice parameter variation across T N (obtained from the temperature-dependent neutron diffraction measurements) further confirmed the existence of the spin-phonon coupling.

Abstract
Tissue amino acid profiles depend on the cell types and extracellular components that constitute the tissue, and their functions and activities. We aimed to characterize the tissue amino acid profiles in several types of pancreatic tumors and lesions. We examined tissue amino acid profiles in 311 patients with pancreatic tumors or lesions. We used newly developed LC-MS/MS methods to obtain the profiles, which were compared with clinicopathological data. Each tumor or lesion presented a characteristic tissue amino acid profile. Certain amino acids were markedly altered during the multistep pancreatic carcinogenesis and pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) progression. A tissue amino acid index (TAAI) was developed based on the amino acids that were notably changed during both carcinogenesis and cancer progression. Univariate and multivariate survival analyses revealed that PDAC patients with a high TAAI exhibited a significantly shorter survival rate, and these findings were validated using a second cohort. We suggest that tissue amino acid profiles are characteristic for normal tissue type, tumor histological type, and pathological lesion, and are representative of the cancer grade or progression stage in multistep carcinogenesis and of malignant characteristics. The TAAI could serve as an independent prognosticator for patients with PDAC.

Abstract
BACKGROUND According to the revised staging of the American Joint Committee on Cancer, 8th edition (AJCC8), the N category in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma is classified as N0 (0), N1 (1-3), and N2 (≥ 4) based on the number of metastatic lymph nodes (LNs). This study aimed to validate this classification and analyze cutoff values of metastatic LN numbers. METHODS Patients with pancreatic head ductal adenocarcinoma who underwent pancreaticoduodenectomy at our institution between 2005 and 2016 without preoperative therapy were retrospectively analyzed. The patients were staged by AJCC8, and prognostic analyses were performed. The best cutoff value for the metastatic LN number was determined by the minimum P value approach. RESULTS In 228 of 309 patients, LN metastases were found (median number of examined LNs, 41). The median survival time (MST) was 56 months in the N0 group, 34 months in the N1 group, and 20 months in the N2 group (N0 vs N1: P = 0.023; N1 vs N2: P < 0.001). The best cutoff number of metastatic LNs was 4 for patients with LN metastases and 7 for patients with N2 disease. The MST for patients with four to six positive nodes (N2a) was significantly longer than for those with seven or more positive nodes (N2b) (24.0 vs 19.1 months: P = 0.012). For N2b patients, conventional adjuvant chemotherapy did not show survival benefits (P = 0.133), and overall survival did not differ significantly from that for patients with para-aortic LN metastasis (P = 0.562). CONCLUSION The N staging of AJCC8 was valid. Clinicians should regard N2b as similar to distant LN metastasis, and more intensive adjuvant therapy may be indicated for this group.

Abstract
Background Combination therapy with oral fluoropyrimidine and irinotecan has not yet been established as first-line treatment of metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC). We carried out a randomized, open-label, phase III trial to determine whether S-1 and irinotecan plus bevacizumab is noninferior to mFOLFOX6 or CapeOX plus bevacizumab in terms of progression-free survival (PFS). Patients and methods Patients from 53 institutions who had previously untreated mCRC were randomly assigned (1 : 1) to receive either mFOLFOX6 or CapeOX plus bevacizumab (control group) or S-1 and irinotecan plus bevacizumab (experimental group; a 3-week regimen: intravenous infusions of irinotecan 150 mg/m2 and bevacizumab 7.5 mg/kg on day 1, oral S-1 80 mg/m2 twice daily for 2 weeks, followed by a 1-week rest; or a 4-week regimen: irinotecan 100 mg/m2 and bevacizumab 5 mg/kg on days 1 and 15, S-1 80 mg/m2 twice daily for 2 weeks, followed by a 2-week rest). The primary end point was PFS. The noninferiority margin was 1.25; noninferiority would be established if the upper limit of the 95% confidence interval (CI) for the hazard ratio (HR) of the control group versus the experimental group was less than this margin. Result Between June 2012 and September 2014, 487 patients underwent randomization. Two hundred and forty-three patients assigned to the control group and 241 assigned to the experimental group were included in the primary analysis. Median PFS was 10.8 months (95% CI 9.6-11.6) in the control group and 14.0 months (95% CI 12.4-15.5) in the experimental group (HR 0.84, 95% CI 0.70-1.02; P < 0.0001 for noninferiority, P = 0.0815 for superiority). One hundred and fifty-seven patients (64.9%) in the control group and 140 (58.6%) in the experimental group had adverse events of grade 3 or higher. Conclusion S-1 and irinotecan plus bevacizumab is noninferior to mFOLFOX6 or CapeOX plus bevacizumab with respect to PFS as first-line treatment of mCRC and could be a new standard treatment. Clinical trials number UMIN000007834.

Abstract
Neural invasion is one of the malignant features contributing to locally advanced and/or metastatic disease progression in patients with pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC). Few studies exist on the distribution and state of nerve fibers in PDAC tissue and their clinicopathological impacts. The aim of the present study was to investigate the clinicopathological characteristics and prognostic value of intrapancreatic neural alterations in patients with PDAC. We retrospectively analyzed 256 patients with PDAC who underwent macroscopic curative surgery. Nerve fibers, immunolabeled with a specific neural marker GAP-43, were digitally counted and compared among PDAC, chronic pancreatitis (CP) and normal pancreatic tissues. Interlobular nerve fibers were apparently hypertrophic in both CP and PDAC, although intrapancreatic neural density and nerve number decreased characteristically in PDAC. They tended to decrease toward the center of the tumor. Kaplan-Meier survival analyses revealed a statistically significant correlation between low neural density and shorter overall survival (OS) (P = 0.014), and between high neural invasion and shorter OS (P = 0.017). Neural density (P = 0.04; HR = 1.496; 95% CI 1.018-2.199) and neural invasion ratio (P = 0.064; HR = 1.439; 95% CI .980-2.114) were prognostic factors of shorter OS in the multivariate analysis. These findings suggest low intrapancreatic neural density in patients with PDAC as an independent prognosticator, which may represent aggressive tumor behavior. Furthermore, we propose a simple, practical and reproducible method (to measure neural density and the neural invasion ratio during conventional histopathological diagnosis of PDAC), which has been validated using another cohort (n = 81).

Abstract
BACKGROUND Postoperative delirium is a common and important complication in cancer patients. We need to identify patients at high risk of postoperative delirium such that it can be prevented preoperatively or in early postoperative phase. The aim of this study was to investigate whether preoperative anxiety predicted onset of postoperative delirium in cancer patients, not only in order to identify high-risk groups but also to help develop new preventive approaches. METHODS This was a prospective observational cohort study of cancer patients undergoing tumor resections. Postoperative delirium was assessed using the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, Fifth Edition (DSM-5). Preoperative anxiety was evaluated with the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale-Anxiety (HADS-A), and we defined HADS-A > 7 as clinical anxiety. We conducted multivariate logistic regression to determine which factors were predictors of delirium. RESULTS The final analysis included 91 patients, 29 of whom met the criteria for postoperative delirium. In multivariable logistic regression, age (5-year increments; odds ratio (OR) = 1.565, 95% confidence interval (CI) = 1.057-2.317, p = 0.025) and HADS-A > 7 (OR = 4.370, 95% CI = 1.051-18.178, p = 0.043) predicted delirium onset. These variables explained 74.2% of the variance. CONCLUSIONS Preoperative anxiety strongly predicted postoperative delirium in cancer patients. Our findings suggest that preoperative anxiety may be a new target for prevention of postoperative delirium. Trial registration number This study was registered at UMIN000018980.

Abstract
Background Whether the portal/superior mesenteric vein (PV) should be resected during pancreatoduodenectomy for pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) based on preoperative CT or intraoperative findings is controversial. Methods This was a retrospective study with data of patients who had undergone pancreatoduodenectomy for PDAC between 2002 and 2016 in a tertiary referral centre. Based on the extent of contact between the PV and tumour on CT, patients were categorized into: group 1, no contact; group 2, contact 180° or less; group 3, contact greater than 180°. Extent of pathological PV invasion (pPV) (no invasion, pv0; invasion to tunica adventitia, pv1; invasion to media, pv2; invasion to intima, pv3) was compared with patient survival. To assess the feasibility of performing PV resection (PVR) based on intraoperative findings, the prognosis of patients in groups 1 and 2 with pv0 and no PVR (PVR(−)pv0) was compared with that of patients who had PVR (PVR(+)pv0), selected using propensity score matching. Results Groups 1, 2 and 3 comprised 230, 232 and 38 patients respectively, and PVR was performed in 10·9, 73·3 and 95 per cent of them (P < 0·001). Extent of pPV differed significantly (P < 0·001). The positive predictive value of radiological tumour contact with PV in predicting positive pPV was 42·6 per cent. In 64 patients with PVR(−)pv0 and 64 matched patients with PVR(+)pv0, the R0 resection rate (66 versus 73 per cent respectively; P = 0·337) and survival (median 32·4 versus 32·1 months; P = 0·780) were not significantly different. Conclusion PVR is needed only when the tumour is in clear contact with the PV and cannot be detached during surgery.

Abstract
We investigated the clinicopathological and molecular characteristics of scirrhous hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) to elucidate its uniqueness. Samples from 120 resected HCC cases underwent immunohistochemical analysis. Tumor area containing fibrous stroma and the percentage of steatotic cells within the tumor were evaluated. In our previous report, tumors were immunohistochemically subclassified as biliary/stem cell markers-positive (B/S) (cytokeratin 19 and/or sal-like protein 4 and/or epithelial cell adhesion molecule positive), Wnt/β-catenin signaling-related markers-positive (W/B) (β-catenin and/or glutamine synthetase positive), or all markers-negative (-/-) groups. Thirty-seven cases (31%) with fibrous stroma making up ≥50% of the largest tumor area were defined as scirrhous HCC (sHCC); the other 83 cases (69%) were categorized as common HCC (cHCC). Clinicopathologically, sHCC had fewer poorly differentiated tumors (P = .037) and a higher percentage of cases with steatosis (P = .025) than cHCC. sHCC cases were further divided into two subgroups: those with ≥5% steatotic cells (steatotic sHCC) and those with <5% steatotic cells (nonsteatotic sHCC). Hepatitis B virus infection was more frequent in nonsteatotic sHCC (P = .029), and non-B, non-C cases were more frequent in steatotic sHCC (P = .006). Steatotic sHCC tended to have a longer time to recurrence than nonsteatotic sHCC and cHCC. Most nonsteatotic sHCC cases belonged to B/S group, whereas most steatotic sHCC belonged to -/- group. The same tendency in sHCC was shown in another cohort. Distinct features were seen in steatotic and nonsteatotic sHCC, and both sHCC subgroups exhibited different clinicopathological and molecular features from cHCC. These findings support the hypothesis that sHCC is an independent entity.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Pancreatic cancer (PC) is categorized as a neoplasm associated with Lynch syndrome; however, the precise proportion of PC patients harboring DNA mismatch repair genes (MMR genes) remains unclear, especially in the Asian population. METHODS Among 304 Japanese patients with pathologically proven pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma, we selected 20 (6.6%) patients with a personal or family history involving first- or second-degree relatives fulfilling the revised Bethesda guidelines (RBG), defined as RBG-compatible cases. We analyzed germline variants in 21 genes related to a hereditary predisposition for cancer as well as clinical features in all 20 cases. RESULTS The RBG-compatible cases did not show any unique clinicopathological features. Targeted sequencing data revealed three patients carrying deleterious or likely deleterious variants. Specifically, these three patients harbored a nonsense variant in ATM, a frameshift variant in ATM, and a concurrent nonsense variant in PMS2 and missense variant in CHEK2 (double-mutation carrier), respectively. Although an MMR gene mutation was identified in only one of the 20 patients, up to 15% of the RBG-compatible PC cases were associated with germline deleterious or likely deleterious variants. CONCLUSIONS These findings showed that these guidelines could be useful for identifying PC patients with DNA damage repair genes as well as MMR genes.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Torsion of an undescended testis (UDT) associated with cerebral palsy (CP) and neuromuscular disease (NMD) is an uncommon condition that is not well recognized by primary care physicians or healthcare providers. OBJECTIVE The objective of this study was to highlight the clinical importance of torsion of a UDT in children with CP and NMD. MATERIALS AND METHODS Eleven children with testicular torsion of a UDT operated on at the study institute between 1991 and 2015 were identified. The records of seven children (63.6%) associated with CP or NMD were retrospectively reviewed. Clinical findings of testicular torsion were assessed along with the treatment outcome and testicular salvageability. RESULTS All seven children were not identified with a UDT by public health checkup for infant and young children. No children with CP or NMD had torsion of a descended testis during the present study period. Median age at surgery was 15 years (range, 1-20 years). The testis location was at the external inguinal ring in five patients, in the inguinal canal in one, and in the superficial inguinal pouch in one. Of the contralateral testes, four were a UDT, one was a retractile testis, and two were descended testes. Orchiectomy was performed in six patients (85.7%). In the remaining patients, the testis was preserved but became atrophic. DISCUSSION This study demonstrated that children with CP or NMD may be affected with torsion of a UDT with peak at around puberty with the poor salvage rate, even if the testes appear descended in infancy and young children. Shortcomings of this study were the retrospective design and a small series of children undergoing surgery for torsion of a UDT. CONCLUSION Pediatric urologists need to educate primary care physicians and healthcare providers in the recognition of acquired UDTs and possibly associated testicular torsion in children with CP and NMD. Genital examination should be continued regularly until adolescence in these children to detect acquired UDT. These children should be referred to pediatric urologists to promote surgery as soon as the diagnosis of acquired UDT is carried out. It is believed that it is perhaps the best approach to prevent loss of the testis in children with CP and NMD.
