Transplant Proc 2018; 49:2117-2121.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Inadequate hemostasis during living donor liver transplantation (LDLT) is mainly due to coagulopathy but may also include fibrinolysis. The purpose of this study was to determine the incidence of fibrinolysis and assess its relevance to mortality in LDLT. METHODS The incidence and prognosis of fibrinolysis were retrospectively studied in 76 patients who underwent LDLT between April 2010 and February 2013. Fibrinolysis was evaluated and defined by maximum lysis (ML) >15% within a 60-minute run time using thromboelastometry (ROTEM). RESULTS Fibrinolysis was observed in 19 of the 76 (25%) patients before the anhepatic (pre-anhepatic) phase and was developed in 24 (32%) patients during and after the anhepatic (post-anhepatic) phase. In these 43 patients who had fibrinolysis, spontaneous recovery occurred in 29 patients (73%) within 3 hours after reperfusion of the liver graft. Recovery with tranexamic acid was noted in 2 patients with fibrinolysis in the post-anhepatic phase. Thrombosis in the portal vein and liver artery was noted in 14 patients, and the incidence was significantly greater in patients with post-anhepatic fibrinolysis than in those with pre-anhepatic fibrinolysis (P = .0017). Fibrinolysis that developed in the pre-anhepatic phase was associated with increased 30-day and 6-month mortalities (P = .0003 and .0026, respectively). CONCLUSIONS Fibrinolysis existed and developed in a large percentage of patients during LDLT. Thrombosis in the portal vein and hepatic artery was more common in patients with fibrinolysis in the post-anhepatic phase. Fibrinolysis that developed in the pre-anhepatic phase was associated with increased 30-day and 6-month mortalities.

Abstract
A search for boosted dark matter using 161.9 kt yr of Super-Kamiokande IV data is presented. We search for an excess of elastically scattered electrons above the atmospheric neutrino background, with a visible energy between 100 MeV and 1 TeV, pointing back to the Galactic center or the Sun. No such excess is observed. Limits on boosted dark matter event rates in multiple angular cones around the Galactic center and Sun are calculated. Limits are also calculated for a baseline model of boosted dark matter produced from cold dark matter annihilation or decay. This is the first experimental search for boosted dark matter from the Galactic center or the Sun interacting in a terrestrial detector.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Liver fibrosis is a risk factor for hepatectomy but cannot be determined accurately before hepatectomy because diagnostic procedures are too invasive. Magnetic resonance elastography (MRE) can determine liver stiffness (LS), a surrogate marker for assessing liver fibrosis, non-invasively. The aim of this study was to investigate whether the LS value determined by MRE is predictive of major complications after hepatectomy. METHODS This prospective study enrolled consecutive patients who underwent hepatic resection between April 2013 and August 2016. LS values were measured by imaging shear waves by MRE in the liver before hepatectomy. The primary endpoint was major complications, defined as Clavien-Dindo grade IIIa or above. Logistic regression analysis identified independent predictive factors, from which a logistic model to estimate the probability of major complications was constructed. RESULTS A total of 96 patients were included in the study. Major complications were observed in 15 patients (16 per cent). Multivariable logistic analysis confirmed that higher LS value (P = 0·021) and serum albumin level (P = 0·009) were independent predictive factors for major complications after hepatectomy. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) analysis showed that the best LS cut-off value was 4·3 kPa for detecting major complications, comparable to liver fibrosis grade F4, with a sensitivity of 80 per cent and specificity of 82 per cent. A logistic model using the LS value and serum albumin level to estimate the probability of major complications was constructed; the area under the ROC curve for predicting major complications was 0·84. CONCLUSION The LS value determined by MRE in patients undergoing hepatectomy was an independent predictive factor for major complications.

Abstract
For the Quality of life (QOL) of patients with an artificial heart system, monitoring an information of the cardiovascular control system may be important. We have been evaluating the autonomic nervous system for that purpose. Recently, fluctuations in hemodynamic parameters including heart rate variability (HRV) were evaluated by means of spectral analysis and nonlinear mathematical analysis. Respiratory wavers in HRV were thought ro reflect ongoing information of the parasympathetic nerve activity. Is it true? In order to confirm this hypothesis, we recorded vagal nerve activity directly in the chronic animal experiments. Six healthy adult goats were anesthetized with Halothene inhalation and thoracotomy were performed by the fourth lib resection during mechanical ventilation. Arterial blood pressure, right and left atrial pressures were continuously monitored with the catheter insertion. Cardiac output was measured by the electromagnetic flowmeter attached to the ascending aorta. After the chest was closed, incision was made to the left neck and left vagal nerve was separated. Stainless steel electrodes were inserted into the vagal nerve and fixed by the plasticizer. After the incision was closed, the goats were transferred to the cage and extubated after waking. Hemodynamic parameters and vagal nerve activity were measured in the awake condition. The results showed that clear observation of the autonomic nerve discharges were embodied by this experimental system. The vagal nerve discharges were synchronized with heart beat and respiration. The vagal nerve tonus was significantly influenced by the hemodynamic alteration. However in some condition, the respiratory wave was not always consistent with tonus of the vagal nerve activity, thus suggesting that we should check another information to evaluate the parasympathetic tone. We must continue this study to evaluate an autonomic nerve during artifical heart circulation.

Abstract
In order to analyze the hemodynamic parameters in prosthetic circulation as an entity and not as decomposed parts, non linear mathematical analyzing techniques, including the fractal dimension analyzing theory, were utilized. Two pneumatically actuated ventricular assist devices were implanted, as biventricular bypasses (BVB), in chronic animal experiments, using four healthy adult goats. For the comparison between the natural and prosthetic circulation in the same animals, the BVB type complete prosthetic circulation model with ventricular fibrillation, was adopted. All hemodynamic parameters with natural and prosthetic circulation were recorded under awake conditions, and calculated with a personal computer system. Using the non-linear mathematical technique, the arterial blood pressure waveform was embedded into the return map as the beat-to-beat time series data and fractal dimension analysis were performed to analyze the reconstructed attractor. By the use of the Box counting method, fractal dimension analysis of the hemodynamics was performed. Return map of the hemodynamics during natural and artificial circulation showed fractal characteristics, and fractal dimension analysis of the arterial blood pressure revealed the fact that lower dimensional fractal dynamics were evident during prosthetic circulation. Fractal time series data is suggested to have robustness and error resistance, thus our results suggest that the circulatory regulatory system with an artificial heart may have these desired characteristics.

Abstract
SummaryObjectives: To develop a remote-operating slit lamp microscope system (the remote slit lamp) as the core for highly specialized ophthalmology diagnoses, and to compare the utility of this system with the conventional slit lamp microscope system (the conventional slit lamp) in making a diagnosis.Methods: The remote slit lamp system was developed. Three factors were evaluated in comparison to the conventional slit lamp. The ability to acquire skills was investigated using a task loading system among specialists and residents in ophthalmology. Participants repeated a task up to ten times and the time required for each task was analyzed. The consistency of the two systems in making a diagnosis was investigated using eyes of patients with ocular diseases as well as healthy volunteers.Results: The remote slit lamp is composed of a patient’s unit and ophthalmologist’s unit connected by high-speed internet. The two units share images acquired by the slit lamp in addition to the images and voices of patients and ophthalmologists. Both ophthalmology specialists and residents could minimize the completion times after several trials. The remote slit lamp took more time than the conventional slit lamp. Both systems showed a high consistency in evaluations among eyes with healthy eyes or those with ocular diseases.Conclusions: The remote slit lamp has a similar diagnostic ability, but required more examination time in comparison to the conventional slit lamp. The currently developed remote slit lamp has the potential to be employed for telemedicine purposes in the field of ophthalmology.

Abstract
Our research goal is to measure the 7Be(d, p) reaction to shed light on the 7Li problem in the Big-Bang Nucleosynthesis. We are developing an unstable 7Be target for a high-resolution measurement of the 7Be(d, p)8Be reaction. We plan to compare two methods to producethe 7Be target: (1) Activation method, and (2) Implantation method. We performed an activation methodexperiment at the Van de Graaff at Osaka University, and obtained the cross-section data. A second experiment to obtain more accurate data will take place at the Tandem Electrostatic Accelerator, Kobe University. We have also made a 7Be target with implantation method at CRIB, Center for Nuclear Study, Univer-sity of Tokyo. An experiment to measure the (d, p) reaction with the implanted target is scheduled for 2018 at Japan Atomic Energy Agency, tandem facility.

Abstract
UNLABELLED We examined the medium- to long-term outcome of the original reconstruction technique of the radioulnar ligament using a half-slip of the extensor carpi ulnaris tendon for chronic foveal avulsion of the triangular fibrocartilage complex. We treated 37 wrists in 36 patients with a minimum follow-up of 5 years. Of 36 patients, 12 had more than 10 years follow-up. At final follow-up, 30 patients (31 wrists) reported no pain, five patients (five wrists) reported mild occasional pain and one patient reported severe persistent pain. Two patients had lost 30° of supination. Complete stability of the distal radio-ulnar joint was achieved in 31 wrists, moderate instability was noted in five and severe distal radio-ulnar joint instability remained in one. The size of the bone tunnel was assessed radiologically: in two it had enlarged; in 23 it was unchanged; and in 12 it appeared to have closed over the tendon graft. The overall clinical outcomes were 28 excellent, four good, four fair and one poor. The 12 wrists with more than 10 years follow-up had seven excellent, three good and two fair clinical results. This reattachment technique appears to work and last over the medium- to long-term. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE IV.

Abstract
T2K reports its first results in the search for CP violation in neutrino oscillations using appearance and disappearance channels for neutrino- and antineutrino-mode beams. The data include all runs from January 2010 to May 2016 and comprise 7.482×10^{20} protons on target in neutrino mode, which yielded in the far detector 32 e-like and 135 μ-like events, and 7.471×10^{20} protons on target in antineutrino mode, which yielded 4 e-like and 66 μ-like events. Reactor measurements of sin^{2}2θ_{13} have been used as an additional constraint. The one-dimensional confidence interval at 90% for the phase δ_{CP} spans the range (-3.13, -0.39) for normal mass ordering. The CP conservation hypothesis (δ_{CP}=0, π) is excluded at 90% C.L.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Few studies have examined why some patients with dementia stop attending medical consultations. We conducted a retrospective study to investigate factors associated with discontinuous clinic attendance. METHODS Participants were 988 patients with dementia from university hospital (UH) clinics and affiliated local hospital (LH) clinics. We compared continuous and discontinuous attenders on cognitive and affective functions and activities of daily living (ADL), and also compared UH and LH patients (UH: continuous, n = 176; discontinuous, n = 207; LH: continuous, n = 418; discontinuous, n = 187). RESULTS The total annual rate of discontinuation was 8.0%, and the mean period of attendance before discontinuation was 2.2 ± 2.4 years (UH, 2.8 ± 3.0; LH, 1.5 ± 1.3, P < 0.01). Scores for the Mini-Mental State Examination, Hasegawa Dementia Scale - Revised, Geriatric Depression Scale, apathy scale, Abe's behavioral and psychological symptoms of dementia (BPSD) score, and ADL were significantly worse in the discontinuous group than the continuous group for both UH and LH patients (P < 0.01). The best predictor of discontinuation was ADL decline (UH and LH) and Abe's BPSD score (UH). The most common reason for discontinuation was returning to the family doctor (39.1% for UH), and cessation of hospital attendance at their own discretion (35.3% for LH). CONCLUSIONS We identified the main reasons for discontinuation of attendance as returning to the family doctor and cessation of hospital attendance at their own discretion. The best predictors of discontinuation were ADL decline and worsening BPSD. There were significant differences in discontinuation between UH and LH patients with dementia.

Abstract
Abstract
Background: The semi-dry dot-blot (SDB) method is a diagnostic procedure for detecting lymph node (LN) metastases. Metastases are confirmed by the presence of cytokeratin (CK) in lavage fluid of sectioned LNs that contain anti-pancytokeratin antibody, based on the theory that epithelial components such as CK are not found in normal LNs. We evaluated two novel SDB kits that use the newly developed anti-CK19 antibody for diagnosing LN metastases in breast cancer.
Methods: We obtained 159 LNs dissected from 93 breast cancer patients from July 2013 to December 2015 at Nagasaki University Hospital, including 38 dissected axillary LNs and 121 sentinel LNs, sliced at 2-mm intervals and washed with phosphate-buffered saline. The suspended cells in the lavage fluid of sliced LNs were centrifuged and lysed to extract protein. This extracted protein was used with a low-power and a high-power kit to diagnose LN metastasis. The washed LNs were blindly diagnosed by pathologists using hematoxylin and eosin (H&E) stain. Diagnoses based on the kit were compared with their H&E counterparts.
Results: Of the 159 LNs, 68 were assessed as positive and 91 as negative by permanent pathological examination with H&E. Sensitivity, specificity, and accuracy of the low-power kit for detecting LN metastases was 83.8%, 100%, and 93.1%, respectively. In 11 false-negative cases, there were nine micrometastases, producing a sensitivity of 96.4% for detecting macrometastases. Sensitivity, specificity, and accuracy of the high-power kit for detecting LN metastases was 92.6%, 92.3%, and 92.5%, respectively. Combining the low- and high-power kit results, sensitivity, specificity and accuracy for distinguishing macrometastases from micrometastases was 94.5%, 95.2%, and 95.0%, respectively. Diagnosis was achieved in approximately 20 min using the kits, at a cost of less than 25 USD.
Conclusions: The kits in our study were accurate, quick, and cost-effective in diagnosing LN metastases without the loss of LN tissue. The kits' ability to distinguish macrometastases from micrometastases was excellent, which is important, clinically.

Abstract
Abstract
Aim: An educational program delivered through e-learning was conducted, focusing on nursing for primary breast cancer patients. This paper investigates the results of the program, clarifying changes in levels of understanding before and after the program, and evaluations of the program by nurses who participated. Methods: The content of the education program, which consisted of 24 lessons, each lasting 15-20 minutes, including case studies, covered concerns raised in questions by patients and families about diagnosis, multimodal treatment and nursing for primary breast cancer. Instructors were Certified Nurses in Breast Cancer Nursing and Certified Nurse Specialists in Cancer Nursing, and PowerPoint presentations with video and audio material were created. A dedicated website was created, and 1417 participants took the on-demand program, which was provided from September 2015 to March 2016. Survey participants were the first 500 nurses registered for the course to respond. A questionnaire created by the researchers was sent by post to respondents. Responses were anonymous with identifying information code, and questionnaires were sent with a return envelope before the program (within 2 weeks of registration) and after the program (within 1 month of the end of the program), with return of the questionnaire signifying consent to participate. The questionnaire comprised 24 items on level of understanding of breast cancer nursing, aligned to program content, plus 11 items on evaluation of the program. Responses were selected from a 5-point scale, where 1 meant “strongly disagree” and 5 meant “strongly agree”. Analysis: Responses were quantified, and mean scores for each item were calculated. In addition, respondents were divided into two groups, namely, those with less than 3 years of breast cancer nursing experience (Group A) and those with 3 or more years' experience (Group B), and were compared using the Mann-Whitney U test. SPSS Statistics V22.0 was used. Ethical considerations: The study went through Research Ethics approval at the researchers' institute of affiliation. Results: A total of 126 people replied to both the pre-program and post-program questionnaire, and of these, the responses of 106 nurses (Group A: 34 nurses, Group B: 72 nurses) who were not qualified as Certified Nurses or Certified Nurse Specialists were used for analysis. Median age was 41.0 years (Group A: 38.5 years, Group B: 42 years), and median number of years of breast cancer nursing was 4.6 years. In terms of program evaluation, “I could study when it was convenient for me” scored 4.63, while “It will be useful for breast cancer nursing from now on” scored 4.57. In terms of comparison of level of understanding before and after the program, understanding improved on all 24 items, and was significant on 19 items. Comparison of the 2 groups showed significant difference on 2 items, “support for changes in body image” and “communication with the patient”, with changes in level of understanding in Group A being greater. Discussion: The study suggests that participants' understanding of breast cancer nursing increased and improvements in clinical practice can be expected through e-learning materials that facilitate effective learning.

Abstract
A molecular basis for Cl− re-absorption has not been well-characterized in salivary ductal cells. Previously, we found strong expression of a rat homologue proposed to be Ca2+-dependent Cl− channels (rCLCA) in the intralobular ducts of the rat submandibular gland. To address the question as to whether rCLCA and cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) are involved in Cl− re-absorption, we evaluated the electrolyte content of saliva from glands pre-treated with a small interfering RNA (siRNA). Retrograde injection into a given submandibular duct of an siRNA designed to knock down either rCLCA or CFTR reduced the expression of each of the proteins. rCLCA and CFTR siRNAs significantly increased Cl− concentration in the final saliva during pilocarpine stimulation. These results represent the first in vivo evidence for a physiological significance of rCLCA, along with CFTR, in transepithelial Cl− transport in the ductal system of the rat submandibular gland.

Abstract
We report the first measurement of the flux-averaged cross section for charged current coherent π^{+} production on carbon for neutrino energies less than 1.5 GeV, and with a restriction on the final state phase space volume in the T2K near detector, ND280. Comparisons are made with predictions from the Rein-Sehgal coherent production model and the model by Alvarez-Ruso et al., the latter representing the first implementation of an instance of the new class of microscopic coherent models in a neutrino interaction Monte Carlo event generator. We observe a clear event excess above background, disagreeing with the null results reported by K2K and SciBooNE in a similar neutrino energy region. The measured flux-averaged cross sections are below those predicted by both the Rein-Sehgal and Alvarez-Ruso et al.
