Abstract
Abstract
Introduction
We examined associations of sleep and hyperarousal with neural responses to a fear conditioning and extinction protocol in trauma-exposed individuals. We hypothesized, greater hyperarousal, poorer sleep quality and more nightmares would accompany greater activation of the salience network (associated with fear) and lesser activation of the prefrontal cortex (PFC; associated with fear regulation) throughout this protocol.
Methods
Persons exposed to trauma within the past 2 years (N=119, 43 with Post-traumatic stress disorder; PTSD) completed the PTSD Checklist-5 (PCL-5), two weeks of actigraphy and sleep/nightmare diaries, and a 2-day fear-conditioning and extinction protocol during fMRI. Hyperarousal items from PCL-5, sleep quality, and nightmare frequency were used to predict fMRI contrasts representing (1) initial activations to reinforced conditioned stimuli (CS+) during fear conditioning, (2) change in neural activation to CS+s across extinction learning, and, (3) after 24 hours (extinction recall), selective activation to an extinguished (CS+E) versus an un-extinguished CS+.
Results
During fear conditioning, hyperarousal was positively correlated with activation to the CS+ in the right lateral PFC, whereas nightmare frequency was negatively correlated with activations in bilateral orbitofrontal cortex (OFC). Across extinction learning, sleep onset latency (SOL) was negatively correlated with increased activation to CS+ in bilateral insular and dorsal and middle anterior cingulate cortices (salience regions). At extinction recall, nightmare frequency was negatively correlated with selective activation to the CS+E in the left insular cortex.
Conclusion
Except that fewer nightmares predicted greater OFC activation during fear conditioning, results did not support hypothesized relationships of hyperarousal, poor sleep and nightmares with increased salience network and decreased PFC activation to fear-related stimuli.

Abstract
Abstract
Introduction
Individuals with posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) exhibit autonomic hyperarousal and nightmares. We hypothesized that REM density (REMD) and REM heart rate variability would predict self-reported hyperarousal, nightmares, and PTSD diagnosis in trauma-exposed individuals.
Methods
Ninety-nine individuals (aged 18-40, 68 females) exposed to a DSM-5 PTSD criterion-A trauma within the past two years (48 meeting PTSD criteria) completed a night of ambulatory polysomnography (PSG) preceded by an acclimation night. REMD in scored sleep recordings were computed using the Matlab program written by Benjamin Yetton. Indices of parasympathetic tone during REM were computed using Kubios software and included Average Root Mean Square of the Successive Differences (RMSSD) and High Frequency power (HFpower). Participants completed two weeks of sleep diaries with nightmare questionnaire and completed the Clinician-Administered PTSD Scale (CAPS-5) and the PTSD Checklist for DSM-5 (PCL-5). Hyperarousal-item scores were computed from the PCL-5 without the sleep item (PCLhyp) and from the CAPS-5 (CAPShyp), and these scores (with their sleep items) were combined into a Composite Hyperarousal Index (CHI). Nightmare rate was the proportion of sleep diaries reporting a nightmare. Simple regressions measured associations among REMD, REM parasympathetic indices, hyperarousal measures, and nightmare rate.
Results
REMD did not significantly predict PTSD diagnosis or hyperarousal scores but did predict decreased parasympathetic activity for both RMSSD (p= 0.002, R= -0.316) and HFpower (p= 0.016 R= -0.250). REMD predicted increased nightmare rate (p= 0.011 R= 0.262). Parasympathetic tone was negatively correlated with CAPShyp, PCLhyp, and CHI for both RMSSD (p= 0.04, 0.011, <0.000, respectively) and HFpower (p= 0.051, 0.021, 0.010, respectively). Lower parasympathetic tone also predicted PTSD diagnosis with both RMSSD (p=0.012, t=2.559) and HFpower (p=0.010, t=2.627), but did not predict nightmare rate.
Conclusion
REMD predicted decreased parasympathetic tone and higher nightmare rate. Parasympathetic tone, but not REMD, predicted hyperarousal and PTSD diagnosis.

Abstract
Abstract
Introduction
Hyperarousal and disturbed sleep are intrinsic symptoms of posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD). We explored whether self-reported indices of hyperarousal predict longitudinally measured objective, subjective, and retrospective evaluations of sleep quality in trauma-exposed individuals.
Methods
Individuals exposed to a DSM-5 PTSD Criterion-A traumatic event within the past two years (N=130, 91 females), aged 18-40 (mean 24.43, SD 5.30), 51.54% of whom met DSM-5 criteria for PTSD, completed 14 days of actigraphy and sleep diaries. Participants also completed the PTSD Checklist for DSM-5 (PCL-5), the Clinician-Administered PTSD Scale (CAPS-5), published Hyperarousal (HAS) and Hypervigilance (HVQ) scales, and the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) (N=108-125 for different scales). Mean total sleep time (TST), sleep onset latency (SOL), sleep efficiency (SE) and sleep midpoint were calculated from actigraphy and subjective SOL, SE, number of awakenings, and time spent awake from diaries. Simple regressions were used to predict associations of the PCL-5, HAS, and HVQ scores with measures of sleep quality.
Results
Hyperarousal indices predicted diary but not actigraphy measures of sleep quality. Longer diary-reported SOL was predicted by higher scores for: PCL-5 total score (R=0.290, p=0.001), PCL-5 hyperarousal items without the sleep item (R=0.261, p=0.004), and HAS without sleep items (R=0.220, p=0.016). Diary-reported number of awakenings and wake time after sleep onset were predicted by higher HAS scores without the sleep question: (R=0.373, p<0.001; r=0.352, p<0.001). Similarly, all hyperarousal indices significantly predicted PSQI global score (PCL-5: R=0.482, p<0.001; PCL-5 hyperarousal: R=0.389, p<0.001; HVQ: R=0.214, p=0.017; HAS without sleep question: R=0.415, p<0.001).
Conclusion
Self-reported hyperarousal measures predict subjective longitudinal (especially SOL) and retrospective measures, but not objective measurements of sleep quality. Similar discrepancies between self-reported and objective measures of sleep quality have been reported in patients with insomnia disorder. Cognitive-behavioral therapy for insomnia may be especially effective in treating post-traumatic sleep disturbances.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES First, to investigate the biological variability of N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) in healthy Labrador retrievers and compare this with current laboratory recommendations for dilated cardiomyopathy screening. Second, to calculate a breed-specific reference interval and validate it in a retrospective cohort. MATERIALS AND METHODS Plasma NT-proBNP was measured in 51 clinically healthy Labrador retrievers at 0, 2, 4, 6 and 8 weeks. Coefficient of variation for individual dogs over time, the coefficient of variation for the group at each time point and the index of individuality were calculated. A reference interval was derived and tested on a clinical dataset available from four UK cardiology referral centres. RESULTS Median NT-proBNP was 865 pmol/L (315 to 2064 pmol/L). Mean individual coefficient of variation was 19% (95% CI: 16 to 21%) and group coefficient of variation was 43% (95% CI: 41 to 46%), with index of individuality at 0.44. The breed-specific reference interval was 275 to 2100 pmol/L. In the validation group, 93% of NT-proBNP measurements from healthy dogs were within the reference interval. NT-proBNP measurements exceeded the reference interval in 82% of dogs with dilated cardiomyopathy. The upper bound of the reference interval (2100 pmol/L) had a positive predictive value of 90% and a negative predictive value of 87% for identification of dilated cardiomyopathy in this population. CLINICAL SIGNIFICANCE Breed-specific reference intervals might improve the diagnostic accuracy of NT-proBNP measurement. Applying the currently recommended general cut-off value to Labradors is likely to result in frequent false positives and diagnosis would be improved by application of the new breed-specific reference interval calculated here.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE Computed tomography (CT) is one of the most frequently used medical imaging methods. An important application area of CT is dental implants, which require precise inspection and analysis of oral structures. Since CT provides a precise 3D model of the teeth, bones and nerves, it can be used as a surgical guide for dental implants. Along with CT, optical 3D images called stereolithography (STL) have also been widely used. STL images obtained from optical 3D images can be used to show the 3D surfaces of oral structures. Since CT data and STL data deploy different technologies to obtain dental information, we can obtain more accurate dental implants by combining the two datasets. Since the two datasets are acquired by using different sensors, the datasets need to be registered. METHODS An automatic matching algorithm is proposed for CT and STL image registration, which is based on depth maps and maximum intensity projection. Then, fine tuning was performed based on volume matching. RESULTS When applied to real-world databases, the proposed method provided an average matching error of 2.7 mm for the upper jaw and 2.3 mm for the lower jaw with an average processing time of about 19 s. CONCLUSIONS The proposed method performs accurate registration of CT and STL.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
If the size of the tumor is large, neoadjuvant systemic therapy (NST) is performed to reduce the size of the tumor and to conserve the breast. It is known that magnetic resonance imaging is more accurate than mammography (MMG) or ultrasonography (USG) in determining the area of residual cancer in breast-conserving surgery (BSG) after NST. However, there are some problems when performing BCS using MRI. Because the posture of MRI test is different from the posture at surgery, it is difficult to accurately mark the area of the tumor observed in MRI. Neoadjuvant systemic therapy reduces tumor size and often makes it difficult to detect the original tumor area on preoperative MRI. Even if the tumor is not visible in the image, the cancer cells may remain, so it is important to accurately indicate the extent of the initial tumor and remove it. Until now, however, there has been no way to accurately mark past breast tumors in the breast. We have developed a breast surgical guide (BSG) that can mark a range of tumor directly on the breast using three-dimensional printing technology based on supine MRI. This study analyzed the results of patients who underwent BCS using a 3D printing breast surgical guide (3D-BSG) based on supine MRI.
Methods
This trial was designed as a prospective single-institution cohort study. Our study protocol was approved by the Institutional Review Board of Asan Medical Center, Seoul, Korea (IRB No. 2016-1237). Patients who were expected to undergo BCS after NST were enrolled in this study and supine MRI was performed before and after NST. From MRI images, morphological shapes of breasts and tumors were modeled. The prepared digital model was saved in stereolithography file format and then exported to a 3D printer. 3D-BSG is designed to be able to mark the skin and attach the dye injecting column to mark the around the tumor. The breast tissue was removed with blue dye on the basis of the border. To obtain tumor free margin, intraoperative frozen sections were identified in several cavities and re-excision was performed if tumor positive.
Results
Between January 2016 and May 2017, 50 patients were enrolled in the study. BCS was applied to 40 patients, except for those who were rejected or mastectomy. Complete remission was observed in 15 patients after NST. Four patients had tumor positive on resection margins on frozen biopsy during operation, two with IDC and two with DCIS. Re-excision was performed in these patients and tumor negative margin was confirmed in all patients in the final pathology results. The median size of the long axis of the tumor was 1.7 cm (range, 0.5 to 4.5 cm) and the median size of the long axis of the removed breast tissue was 5.1 cm (range, 2.3 to 8.1 cm). The distance between tumor and resection margin was 1.2 cm (range, 0.1 to 4.8 cm)..
Conclusions
In BCS, the application of the supine MRI based 3D-BSG showed low rates of positive margins. Unlike conventional localization techniques, application of 3D-BSG does not cause pain to the patient, has no radiation exposure, and has no time required for the localization procedure, so it will be helpful for patients in BCS in the future.

Abstract
We report the case of a breast cancer patient in whom a two-phase 18F-sodium-fluoride (18F-NaF) bone PET/CT was useful for detecting hidden bone metastases and assessing treatment response. The patient underwent a two-phase bone PET/CT to evaluate a newly developed lesion found on bone scintigraphy following surgery. In the perfusion and bone phase PET/CT images, focally increased perfusion and bony uptake were found in the sacrum and L5 vertebra, suggesting bone metastases of breast cancer. Therefore, the patient subsequently underwent palliative treatment. In another twoPET/CT studies (each including two-phase bone images) performed after 3and 6months of follow-up, the perfusion phase images showed an improvement of the lesion uptake more clearly than in the bone phase images in the visual and semi-quantitative analyses, and thus the perfusion phase images were more useful for clarifying the treatment response earlier than the bone phase images. This is the first case showing the clinical usefulness of 18F-NaF bone PET/CT with the perfusion imaging technique for evaluating bone metastases and the therapeutic response of metastatic bone lesions.

Abstract
Graphene can acquire salient properties by the intercalated nano structures, and to functionalize the graphene as designed, understanding the growth kinetics of the nano structures is a prerequisite. In that regards, Kr atoms are selectively intercalated just below the surface graphene of C(0001) by the incidence of low energy Kr ions. The growth kinetics of the encapsulated Kr nano structures is investigated by both scanning tunneling microscopy and molecular dynamics simulations. The intercalation proceeds via defect sites, such as surface vacancies. At room temperature, the thermal diffusion of intercalated Kr is almost frustrated by the strain field of the encapsulating graphene layers, and the growth of Kr nano structures proceeds via the transient mobility of both the intercalating Kr atoms and previously intercalated Kr atoms that are mobilized by collision with the incident Kr ions. At the elevated temperatures where thermal diffusion becomes effective, some Kr nano structures disappear, releasing pressurized Kr atoms, while others coalesce to form blisters via the delamination of the adjacent graphene. Some of the larger blisters explode to leave craters of varying depths at the surface. In contrast to growth on the substrate, the growth of each encapsulated nano structure depends significantly on extrinsic variables, such as surface vacancies and local topography around the nano structure, that affect the Kr diffusion and limit the maximal Kr pressure.

Abstract
Whether or not epitaxially grown superconducting films have the same bulk-like superconducting properties is an important concern. We report the structure and the electronic properties of epitaxially grown Ba(Fe1-x Co x )2As2 films using scanning tunneling microscopy and scanning tunneling spectroscopy (STS). This film showed a different surface structure, [Formula: see text]R45° reconstruction, from those of as-cleaved surfaces from bulk crystals. The electronic structure of the grown film is different from that in bulk, and it is notable that the film exhibits the same superconducting transport properties. We found that the superconducting gap at the surface is screened at the Ba layer surface in STS measurements, and the charge density wave was observed at the surface in sample in the superconducting state.

Abstract
Nanopatterning at solid surfaces by ion beam sputtering (IBS) has been practiced mostly for stationary substrates with an ion beam incident under a fixed sputter geometry. We have released such constraints in the sputter condition. We simultaneously apply two ion beams or sequentially vary the orientation of substrate with respect to an ion beam. We also periodically change either the azimuthal or polar angle of the substrate with respect to an ion beam during IBS. These unconventional ways of IBS can improve the order of the pattern, and produce novel and non trivial nano patterns that well serve as touch stones to refine the theoretical models and thus deepen our understanding of the patterning mechanisms by IBS.
