Abstract
Abstract
Background
New iterative reconstruction tecniques, including Adaptive Iterative Dose Reduction 3D (AIDR 3D) and Forward Projected Model-based Iterative Reconstruction SoluTion (FIRST), have been recently available on new generation 320 slice CT, and they can provide high-quality CT images.
Purpose
The aim of this study was to evaluate the diagnostic performance of detection of abnormal late enhancement (LE) in left ventricular (LV) myocardium (LVM) using 320-slice CT with new iterative reconstruction techiniques, AIDR 3D (Figure A) and FIRST (Figure B).
Methods
A total of 100 patients who were suspected of having various myocardial diseases and underwent late phase acquisition both on cardiac CT and CMR within 3 months were analyzed. The first 50 consecutive patients (Group 1) underwent 320-slice CT with AIDR 3D, 120 Kv tube voltage, 519±71 mA tube current. The next 50 consecutive patients (Group 2) underwent 320-slice CT with FIRST, 80 or 100Kv tube voltage, 803±20 mA tube current. We compared diagnostic accuracy of CT for detection of LE in LVM against that of CMR (the gold standard) in between the 2 groups.
Results
On patient-by-patient analysis, sensitivity, specificity, positive (PPV) and negative predictive values (NPV), and overall accuracy for detection of LE on CT vs CMR were 87, 95, 96, 82, and 90% in Group 1, and 97, 83, 91, 88, and 90% in Group 2. There were no significant difference of diagnostic accuracy on patient-by-patient analysis in between the 2 groups (Figure C). However, on a segment-by-segment analysis (using 17 American Heart Association LV segment model), these values for detection of LE on CT vs CMR were 60, 95, 73, 91, and 88% in Group 1, and 85, 95, 86, 95, and 93% in Group 2. Sensitivity, PPV, NPV and overall accuracy were significantly higher in Group 2 than in Group 1 (all P<0.01) (Figure D).
Conclusions
Diagnostic accuracy of detection of LE in LVM on CT combining low tube voltage and high tube current acquisition on a new generation 320-slice CT with FIRST was superior to 320-slice CT with AIDR 3D.

Cartilage wear patterns in severe osteoarthritis of the trapeziometacarpal joint: a quantitative analysis. Osteoarthritis Cartilage 2019; 27:1152-1162.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The present quantitative study aimed to assess the three-dimensional (3-D) cartilage wear patterns of the first metacarpal and trapezium in the advanced stage of osteoarthritis (OA) and compare cartilage measurements with radiographic severity. DESIGN Using 19 cadaveric trapeziometacarpal (TMC) joints, 3-D cartilage surface models of the first metacarpal and trapezium were created with a laser scanner, and 3-D bone surface model counterparts were similarly created after dissolving the cartilage. These two models were superimposed, and the interval distance on the articular surface as the cartilage thickness was measured. All measurements were obtained in categorized anatomic regions on the articular surface of the respective bone, and we analyzed the 3-D wear patterns on the entire cartilage surface. Furthermore, we compared measurements of cartilage thickness with radiographic OA severity according to the Eaton grading system using Pearson correlation coefficients (r). RESULTS In the first metacarpal, the cartilage thickness declined volarly (the mean cartilage thickness of the volar region was 0.32 ± 0.16 mm, whereas that of the dorsal region was 0.53 ± 0.18 mm). Conversely, the cartilage evenly degenerated throughout the articular surface of the trapezium. Measurements of the categorized regions where cartilage thinning was remarkable exhibited statistical correlations with radiographic staging (r = -0.48 to -0.72). CONCLUSIONS Our findings indicate that cartilage wear patterns differ between the first metacarpal and trapezium in the late stage of OA. There is a need for further studies on cartilage degeneration leading to symptomatic OA in the TMC joint.

Abstract
AIMS The aim of this study was to examine whether hips with unilateral osteoarthritis (OA) secondary to developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH) have significant asymmetry in femoral length, and to determine potential related factors. PATIENTS AND METHODS We enrolled 90 patients (82 female, eight male) with DDH showing unilateral OA changes, and 43 healthy volunteers (26 female, 17 male) as controls. The mean age was 61.8 years (39 to 93) for the DDH groups, and 71.2 years (57 to 84) for the control group. Using a CT-based coordinate measurement system, we evaluated the following vertical distances: top of the greater trochanter to the knee centre (femoral length GT), most medial prominence of the lesser trochanter to the knee centre (femoral length LT), and top of the greater trochanter to the medial prominence of the lesser trochanter (intertrochanteric distance), along with assessments of femoral neck anteversion and neck shaft angle. RESULTS The percentages of hips with an absolute difference of > 5 mm in femoral GT and LT lengths were significantly larger in the DDH group (24% for both) compared with those of the control group (2% and 7%, respectively). The femoral length GT of the affected femur was significantly shorter in Crowe I and longer in Crowe IV than that of the unaffected side. The affected-to-unaffected difference of the intertrochanteric distance showed positive correlation with that of the femoral length GT in Crowe I and Crowe II/III, and negative correlation with that of the femoral length LT in the Crowe I and Crowe IV groups. CONCLUSION Hips with unilateral end-stage OA secondary to DDH show significant asymmetry in femoral length between both the greater and lesser trochanter and the knee compared with controls. The intertrochanteric distance was a morphological factor related to femoral-length asymmetry. When undertaking total hip arthroplasty (THA) in the presence of DDH, long leg radiographs or CT measurements should be used to assess true leg-length discrepancy.

Abstract
Abstract
Background: Previous studies demonstrated that the incidence rate of invasive contralateral breast cancer (CBC) was 5% within the first 10 years after the primary breast cancer (BC). However improving long-term breast cancer survivorship and advancements in diagnostic imaging have resulted in an increased detection of bilateral breast cancer (BBC), and trends of bilateral invasive and in situ breast cancer are not well established. The aim of this study was to assess national trends of BBC incidence of the United States (US) and Japan.
Methods: The Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) database (1973-2014) and the clinical database of Breast Oncology Center of Cancer Institute Hospital in Tokyo, Japan (Ganken) database (1946-2015) were used to identify nSEER=11,771 and nGanken=1,499 women diagnosed with BBC, respectively. BBC was defined as invasive BC and/or ductal or lobular carcinoma in situ diagnosed in both breasts simultaneously or after primary breast cancer diagnosis. BBC was grouped into synchronous or metachronous BBC by the interval between first BC and contralateral BC; synchronous cases were defined as CBC diagnosed at the same time or within an interval of 1 year from primary BC diagnosis whereas metachronous cases were defined as a diagnosis occuring 1 year following the primary BC. We assessed trends of BBC incidence and characteristics of BBC cases between the two countries. To determine temporal trends in the incidence of BBC and proportion of the characteristics, we compared them using the Cochrane-Armitage test for trend.
Results: The rates of BBC have significantly increased in both countries (Table 1, 2) [1975: 2.6%; 2014: 7.5% in SEER (p<0.001), 1946-1980: 3.3%; 2011-2015: 10.7% in Ganken (p<0.001)]. The increase was identified in both synchronous and metachronous BBC. In SEER, 40% of synchronous BBC were found as in situ BC and about 15% of BBC presented as invasive lobular carcinoma. More recently, CBC was more likely to be diagnosed at early stages (in situ and local disease) than in previous years [1975: 65%; 2014: 85% in SEER (p<0.001)]. The interval between first BC and contralateral BC have shortened, and CBC were more likely to be operated simultaneously in both countries [1985: 40%; 2014: 51% in SEER, 1946-1980: 24%; 2011-2015: 74% in Ganken].

Conclusion: In the modern era, the number of BBC cases have increased and are more likely to be found at an early stage. Further studies are needed to demonstrate the usefulness of early detection of CBC and to define the best means to tailor therapy for patients with bilateral disease.

Abstract
Long-term follow-up of patients with adhesive capsulitis (AC) reveals that approximately half of them suffer from a limited range of shoulder motion, particularly external and/or internal rotation. We report the surgical technique and short-term clinical outcomes of ultrasound-guided release of the thickened coracohumeral (CH) ligament in 8 patients (9 shoulders) with AC. Passive external rotation with the arm by the side significantly increased from an average of 18° preoperatively to 47° immediately after CH ligament release. VAS and ASES scores were improved at 3months follow-up in all 9 shoulders, and maintained at 6months follow-up in 6 shoulders. No procedure-related adverse events developed over the 6-month follow-up period. Ultrasound-guided release for thickened CH ligament is a reliable and effective minimally invasive surgery for persistent limited external rotation due to AC of the shoulder.

Abstract
Excess protein intake enhances the progression of renal failure. The oral carbonaceous adsorbent, AST-120, was found experimentally and clinically to retard the progression of renal failure. This study was designed to determine whether deterioration of renal function by dietary protein loading can be prevented or mitigated by this oral adsorbent. Rats with uremia induced by partial renal infarction were fed a normal or high-protein diet for 70 days with or without AST-120, in which the inorganic phosphate content was adjusted to the same level. The survival rate deteriorated with the high dietary protein, but was improved from 30% to 100% with AST-120. Dietary protein loading reduced renal function, based on creatinine clearance. AST-120 improved renal function and renal histopathology not only in the normal diet group but in the high-protein group as well. The progression of renal failure induced by protein loading is thus shown to be prevented by oral AST-120. The mechanism for its action remains to be clarified.

Abstract
Beta 2 microglobulin (B2M) has been identified as a major component of amyloid deposits. This study was designed to determine whether changes occur in the synthesis of B2M in dialysis patients. Mononuclear cells (MNC) were isolated in peripheral blood from healthy volunteers, patients on hemodialysis (HD) and on continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD). MNC were cultured in a medium of RPMI 1640 with or without interleukins IL-1, IL-2 or interferon INF-r. B2M in the cultured cells and supernatant was measured by enzyme immunoassay. IL-2 or INF-r stimulated B2M synthesis 'was significantly lower (25%) in patients on HD than in normal controls regardless of the type of dialysis membranes used, with no change in basal B2M synthesis. No differences were detected between healthy volunteers and CAPD patients. Preincubation of MNC with complement - activating or non-complement - activating membrane had no influence on B2M synthesis. The basal B2M synthesis of MNC significantly increased after a 4-hour HD regardless of the membranes used, and IL-2 and IFN-r stimulated synthesis were both essentially the same before and after HD. It was thus concluded that maximum capacity for B2M synthesis of MNC decreases in hemodialysis patients. This low responsiveness of MNC may be partially the cause for the reduction in cell-mediated immune response in HD patients.

Abstract
Tissue plasminogen activator (tPA) has been reported to treat intraoperative pulmonary thromboembolism (PTE) during liver transplantation (LT). However, tPA administration is often delayed due to fear of uncontrolled bleeding and storage in a refrigerator outside of operating rooms. Various dosages of tPA were used. We hypothesize that a policy of tPA storage and low dosage use improves patient outcomes. At a transplantation center, a multidisciplinary committee has implemented a tPA policy since April 2014, which includes the following: (1) timely administering of low-dose tPA (0.5-4 mg) for intraoperative PTE; (2) keeping 2 vials of tPA (2 mg/vial) in the operating room at room temperature; and (3) transferring unused tPA vials to the cardiology catheterization laboratory for next-day use. A prospective observational study was conducted to record the incidence and outcome of PTE during LTs. Over the next 19 months, 99 adult deceased donor LTs were performed with 1 (1.0%) intraoperative PTE. A 45-year-old woman with hepatitis C developed PTE within 5 minutes after graft reperfusion. A 2-mg tPA was immediately administered via a central venous line with hemodynamic improvement and clot lysis. Thromboelastography was normalized in 90 minutes. Five LT cases developing intraoperative PTE have been reported to receive “standard” dosages of tPA (20-110 mg) or urokinase (4400 IU/kg), which were administered more than 20 minutes after the diagnosis of PTE. One intraoperative death and one later mortality were noted with intracranial hemorrhages/infarction of 3 cases. The multidisciplinary low-dose tPA policy for PTE was suggested to be effective.

Abstract
Abstract
Background: Whether adjuvant chemotherapy is required for patients (pts) with intermediate-risk endocrine-responsive postmenopausal breast cancer (BC) remains unknown. Sufficient data have not been available about the long-term prognosis of patients with neoadjuvant endocrine therapy (ET). NEOS is a randomized phase III study that assessed the long-term prognosis of estrogen receptor positive (ER+) primary breast cancer (PBC) pts who received neoadjuvant ET with/without adjuvant chemotherapy.
Methods: Postmenopausal BC pts with ER +/HER2 negative, T1c-2, clinically node negative, under 76 years old were enrolled at primary registration. Pts were treated by leterozole (LET) in weeks 24-28 after primary enrollment. Pts experienced progression (PD) during neoadjuvant phase were excluded at randomization and received any systemic therapy driven by investigators before or after surgery. The long-term prognosis was followed in all registered pts including PD pts. Response to neoadjuvant ET was evaluated as complete response (CR), partial response (PR) or stable disease (SD) using calipers, ultrasound and MRI (or CT) at the baseline and end of treatment before surgery. Pts who met eligibility criteria were randomized 1:1 to LET for 4.5-5 years after chemotherapy or LET alone for 4.5-5 years without chemotherapy after surgery. Pts excluded at second registration were treated any systemic therapies driven by investigators. The primary endpoint was disease-free survival (DFS) and secondary endpoints included overall survival (OS), clinical response rate in neoadjuvant phase, pathological response, and breast-conserving surgery rate. The randomization code have been blinded to the investigators.
Results: Between May 2008 and June 2013, 904 patients were enrolled at primary registration from 100 institutions in Japan (median follow-up: 4.0 years) and 24 pts were withdrawn during neoadjuvant phase. The median age was 63 years, T1c:37%, T2:63%, and PgR+:78%. Clinical response rates (CR, PR, SD and PD) were2% (16pts), 48% (421pts), 45% (400pts) and 5% (43pts), respectively and, in each response category, 0% (0/16), 5.5% (23/421), 7.8% (31/400), and 20.9% (9/43) experienced DFS events. DFS in PD pts to neoadjuvant ET were statistically significantly worse than CR, PR, SD pts (p<0.0001, hazard ratio 4.7 (95% CI:2.3-9.5). The prognosis after surgery in 669 randomized pts was good regardless with/without chemotherapy, forty four pts (6.6%) experienced DFS events after surgery. The predictive markers of PD for neoadjuvant ET were yet unclear among evaluated clinical factors.
Conclusion: This is the first report of DFS in the largest neoadjuvant ET trial (NEOS). The DFS of postmenopausal, ER+/HER2-, PBC pts excluding PD pts to neoadjuvant ET is highly good regardless with/without chemotherapy. Neoadjuvant ET with utilization of PD response as a prognostic marker can be considered as a standard treatment option for these patients. Clinical trial information: UMIN000001090.

Abstract
Abstract
Background: Neoadjuvant therapy for locally advanced breast cancer has the potential to improve surgical therapeutic outcomes without sacrificing the survival advantages of adjuvant therapy. However, determining whether ER+ patients (pts) will respond to neoadjuvant (NA) chemotherapy (CT) or hormone therapy (HT) can be difficult. Not all ER+ pts respond to NACT, while response to NAHT can vary across ER+ pts. Thus, the ability to select pts more likely to benefit from NAHT would represent progress in clinical management of breast cancer. NEOS is a randomized phase III study assessinglong-term prognosis of ER+ primary breast cancer with/without adjuvant CT following NAHT (UMIN 000001090, http://www.umin.ac.jp/). We used archived core biopsy tumor samples from the NEOS study to validate the RS result as a predictor of clinical response and its association with successful breast conserving surgery (BCS) in pts treated with 6 months of NAHT.
Methods: NEOS enrolled 904 postmenopausal pts with ER+, HER2-, clinically node negative (cN0) breast cancer to evaluate whether adjuvant CT was necessary for pts who responded to NAHT. In this current study, we enrolled pts with tumors ≥2cm from the NEOS study. Biopsy samples of 333 pts were assessed for the Oncotype DX assay. Response to NAHT was recorded as complete/partial response (CR/PR), or stable/progressive disease (SD/PD).
Primary endpoint of this study was to evaluate clinical response (CR/PR) to NA letrozole between pts with low (<18) and high (≥31) RS result. Secondary endpoints include evaluating the relationships between clinical response and continuous RS results, and other covariates including age, tumor size, grade, Ki67 by IHC, ER and PR single gene scores, and ER and proliferation gene group scores by RT-PCR.
Results: The analysis included 294 pts with median age of 63 yrs, median tumor size of 25mm, and 66% were nuclear grade 1. 156 (53.0%), 83 (28.6%) and 54(18.4%) cases were low, intermediate, and high RS groups by Oncotype DX, respectively. Six (2%), 126 (42.8%), 149 (50.3%), 13 (4.4%) cases experienced CR, PR, SD, PD as clinical response, respectively, similar to that of all NEOS pts. Clinical response rate was 54%, 42% and 22% in low, intermediate, and high RS groups, respectively. The proportion of pts with clinical response was significantly higher in the low RS group vs the high RS group (p<0.001). In univariate analyses, continuous RS was significantly associated with clinical response (p<0.001), along with ER (p=.02), PR (p<0.001), and ER gene group score (p<0.001). Other covariates were not associated with clinical response.
Conclusion: The Oncotype DX RS test in core biopsy samples is validated as a predictive assay for clinical response of NAHT in postmenopausal, ER+/HER2-, cN0, primary early breast cancer pts. Further results on the association of RS results with BCS outcomes following NAHT will be presented. These results when combined with previously published data on RS in NACT studies help guide pts with ER+, HER2- breast cancer with NAHT vs NACT treatment options to maximize clinical response.

Study of termination of postprandial gastric contractions in humans, dogs and Suncus murinus: role of motilin- and ghrelin-induced strong contraction. Acta Physiol (Oxf) 2018; 222.

Abstract
AIM Stomach contractions show two types of specific patterns in many species, that is migrating motor contraction (MMC) and postprandial contractions (PPCs), in the fasting and fed states respectively. We found gastric PPCs terminated with migrating strong contractions in humans, dogs and suncus. In this study, we reveal the detailed characteristics and physiological implications of these strong contractions of PPC. METHODS Human, suncus and canine gastric contractions were recorded with a motility-monitoring ingestible capsule and a strain-gauge force transducer. The response of motilin and ghrelin and its receptor antagonist on the contractions were studied by using free-moving suncus. RESULTS Strong gastric contractions were observed at the end of a PPC in human, dog and suncus models, and we tentatively designated this contraction to be a postprandial giant contraction (PPGC). In the suncus, the PPGC showed the same property as those of a phase III contraction of MMC (PIII-MMC) in the duration, motility index and response to motilin or ghrelin antagonist administration. Ghrelin antagonist administration in the latter half of the PPC (LH-PPC) attenuated gastric contraction prolonged the duration of occurrence of PPGC, as found in PII-MMC. CONCLUSION It is thought that the first half of the PPC changed to PII-MMC and then terminated with PIII-MMC, suggesting that PPC consists of a digestive phase (the first half of the PPC) and a discharge phase (LH-PPC) and that LH-PPC is coincident with MMC. In this study, we propose a new approach for the understanding of postprandial contractions.
