Abstract
Although electrical muscle stimulation (EMS) of skeletal muscle effectively prevents muscle atrophy, its effect on the breakdown of muscle component proteins is unknown. In this study, we investigated the biological mechanisms by which EMS-induced muscle contraction inhibits disuse muscle atrophy progression. Experimental animals were divided into a control group and three experimental groups: immobilized (Im; immobilization treatment), low-frequency (LF; immobilization treatment and low-frequency muscle contraction exercise), and high-frequency (HF; immobilization treatment and high-frequency muscle contraction exercise). Following the experimental period, bilateral soleus muscles were collected and analyzed. Atrogin-1 and Muscle RING finger 1 (MuRF-1) mRNA expression levels were significantly higher for the experimental groups than for the control group but were significantly lower for the HF group than for the Im group. Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma coactivator-1alpha (PGC-1alpha) mRNA and protein expression levels in the HF group were significantly higher than those in the Im group, with no significant differences compared to the Con group. Both the Forkhead box O (FoxO)/phosphorylated FoxO and protein kinase B (AKT)/phosphorylated AKT ratios were significantly lower for the Im group than for the control group and significantly higher for the HF group than for the Im group. These results, the suppression of atrogin-1 and MuRF-1 expression for the HF group may be due to decreased nuclear expression of FoxO by AKT phosphorylation and suppression of FoxO transcriptional activity by PGC-1alpha. Furthermore, the number of muscle contractions might be important for effective EMS.

Abstract
The transferability and clinical value of genetic risk scores (GRSs) across populations remain limited due to an imbalance in genetic studies across ancestrally diverse populations. Here we conducted a multi-ancestry genome-wide association study of 156,319 prostate cancer cases and 788,443 controls of European, African, Asian and Hispanic men, reflecting a 57% increase in the number of non-European cases over previous prostate cancer genome-wide association studies. We identified 187 novel risk variants for prostate cancer, increasing the total number of risk variants to 451. An externally replicated multi-ancestry GRS was associated with risk that ranged from 1.8 (per standard deviation) in African ancestry men to 2.2 in European ancestry men. The GRS was associated with a greater risk of aggressive versus non-aggressive disease in men of African ancestry (P = 0.03). Our study presents novel prostate cancer susceptibility loci and a GRS with effective risk stratification across ancestry groups.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Patient involvement in discharge planning of patients with stroke can be accomplished by providing personalized outcome information and promoting shared decision-making. The aim of this study was to develop a patient decision aid (PtDA) for discharge planning of hospitalized patients with stroke.
Methods
A convergent mixed methods design was used, starting with needs assessments among patients with stroke and health care professionals (HCPs). Results of these assessments were used to develop the PtDA with integrated outcome information in several co-creation sessions. Subsequently, acceptability and usability were tested to optimize the PtDA. Development was guided by the International Patient Decision Aids Standards (IPDAS) criteria.
Results
In total, 74 patients and 111 HCPs participated in this study. A three-component PtDA was developed, consisting of:
1) a printed consultation sheet to introduce the options for discharge destinations, containing information that can be specified for each individual patient;
2) an online information and deliberation tool to support patient education and clarification of patient values, containing an integrated “patients-like-me” model with outcome information about discharge destinations;
3) a summary sheet to support actual decision-making during consultation, containing the patient’s values and preferences concerning discharge planning.
In the acceptability test, all qualifying and certifying IPDAS criteria were fulfilled. The usability test showed that patients and HCPs highly appreciated the PtDA with integrated outcome information.
Conclusions
The developed PtDA was found acceptable and usable by patients and HCPs and is currently under investigation in a clinical trial to determine its effectiveness.

Abstract
Background Anti-programmed cell death protein 1 (PD-1) antibody monotherapy (PD1) has led to favorable responses in advanced non-acral cutaneous melanoma among Caucasian populations; however, recent studies suggest that this therapy has limited efficacy in mucosal melanoma (MCM). Thus, advanced MCM patients are candidates for PD1 plus anti-cytotoxic T lymphocyte-associated antigen-4 (CTLA-4) combination therapy (PD1 + CTLA4). Data on the efficacy of immunotherapy in MCM, however, are limited. We aimed to compare the efficacies of PD1 and PD1 + CTLA4 in Japanese advanced MCM patients. Patients and methods We retrospectively assessed advanced MCM patients treated with PD1 or PD1 + CTLA4 at 24 Japanese institutions. Patient baseline characteristics, clinical responses (RECIST), progression-free survival (PFS), and overall survival (OS) were estimated using Kaplan–Meier analysis, and toxicity was assessed to estimate the efficacy and safety of PD1 and PD1 + CTLA4. Results Altogether, 329 patients with advanced MCM were included in this study. PD1 and PD1 + CTLA4 were used in 263 and 66 patients, respectively. Baseline characteristics were similar between both treatment groups, except for age (median age 71 versus 65 years; P < 0.001). No significant differences were observed between the PD1 and PD1 + CTLA4 groups with respect to objective response rate (26% versus 29%; P = 0.26) or PFS and OS (median PFS 5.9 months versus 6.8 months; P = 0.55, median OS 20.4 months versus 20.1 months; P = 0.55). Cox multivariate survival analysis revealed that PD1 + CTLA4 did not prolong PFS and OS (PFS: hazard ratio 0.83, 95% confidence interval 0.58-1.19, P = 0.30; OS: HR 0.89, 95% confidence interval 0.57-1.38, P = 0.59). The rate of ≥grade 3 immune-related adverse events was higher in the PD1 + CTLA4 group than in the PD1 group (53% versus 17%; P < 0.001). Conclusions First-line PD1 + CTLA4 demonstrated comparable clinical efficacy to PD1 in Japanese MCM patients, but with a higher rate of immune-related adverse events. Anti-PD-1 plus anti-CTLA-4 antibody therapy (PD1 + CTLA4) is an option for patients with advanced mucosal melanoma (MCM). Data on the efficacy of PD1 + CTLA4 compared with PD-1 monotherapy (PD1) for MCM, however, are limited. We retrospectively analyzed data from 329 Japanese patients with advanced MCM treated with PD1 or PD1 + CTLA4. No significant differences in objective response rate, progression-free survival, or overall survival were observed. Immune-related adverse events resulting in treatment cessation were higher in the PD1 + CTLA4 group.

Direct comparison of bioabsorbable and biodurable polymer everolimus-eluting stent in neointimal stent coverage and in-stent thrombus using high-resolution angioscope. Eur Heart J 2021.

Abstract
Abstract
Background/Introduction
Although second-generation drug eluting stent (DES) employing biodurable polymer drastically shortened the duration of dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT), previous reports raised concerns that switching from DAPT to single antiplatelet therapy increased rates of subsequent stent thrombosis with time. Third-generation DES employing bioabsorbable polymer has been introduced so as not to hinder the healing process of the vessel wall, however, at present, both DES with bioabsorbable polymer and those with biodurable polymer are used in parallel. It means there is no conclusive evidence regarding pros and cons of these two types of polymers.
Purpose
This study aims to clarify how bioabsorbable polymer and biodurable polymer act on the human coronary artery by observing neointimal stent coverage (NIC) and in-stent thrombus by comparing the third-generation DES with bioabsorbable-polymer cobalt-platinum everolimus-eluting stent (BP CoPt-EES), and the second-generation DES with biodurable-polymer cobalt-chromium everolimus-eluting stent (DP CoCr-EES).
Methods
This is a multicenter observational study including 11 hospitals. We investigated 70 stents (BP CoPt-EES: 40, DP CoCr-EES: 30) of 60 cases, who underwent stent implantation followed by simultaneous observation by coronary angiography, IVUS and angioscopy within 6 to 12 months. For angioscopy, we used a recently available, high-resolution angioscope with a pixel count of 9,000 which realized both stent coverage analysis and planar thrombus detection precisely. Neointimal stent coverage was graded from G0: non coverage to G3: full coverage, and heterogeneity value of neointima was measured as the difference between maximum and minimum NIC grade.
Results
A strong relationship was observed between NIC grade and in-stent thrombus in all stents (p=0.0011), and between the heterogeneity value and stent thrombus (p=0.012). There was no statistical difference in NIC grade between BP CoPt-EES vs. DP CoCr-EES; grade 0: 0 (0.0%) vs. 2 (6.7%), grade 1: 13 (32.5%) vs. 11 (36.7%), grade 2: 6 (15.0%) vs. 6 (20.0%), grade 3: 21 (52.5%) vs. 11 (36.7%), p=0.17) and neither in the heterogeneity value of neointima (p=0.49). The ratio of stent thrombus did not reach statistical difference; 16 (40.0%) in BP CoPt-EES vs. 17 (56.7%) in DP CoCr-EES (p=0.23).
Conclusion
The existence of stent thrombus was associated with the neointimal stent coverage. There was no significant difference both in neointimal stent coverage and stent thrombus between bioabsorbable polymer cobalt-platinum EES and biodurable polymer cobalt-chromium EES after 6 to 12 months following stent deployment.

Abstract
This retrospective cohort study aimed to identify the best anatomical reference for predicting the posterior superior alveolar artery (PSAA) location. Computed tomographic images of 90 maxillary sinuses were evaluated. We studied five references, including the alveolar crest, maxillary sinus floor, zygomatoalveolar crest, hard palate and soft palate, and measured the distances between them and the PSAA. Variations in the distance were evaluated by the standard deviation and coefficient of variation (CV). The zygomatoalveolar crest was an unstable reference, owing to its high standard deviation and CV. The smallest CV was for the distance between the alveolar crest and PSAA, although the distance was smaller in edentulous jaws than dentulous jaws. The distance between the sinus floor and PSAA was larger in male and edentulous patients. The PSAA was detected in 40.0%, 44.4%, 54.4% and 56.7% of the sinus walls at the first and second premolar and the first and second molar positions, respectively. At these tooth positions, the respective heights above the hard palate were 11.2 ± 4.9, 8.2 ± 4.9, 6.2 ± 2.8 and 8.1 ± 2.9 mm. The hard palate was the most stable reference for predicting the location of the PSAA, irrespective of sex, age and dentition.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Primary infected aneurysms of the abdominal aorta and iliac arteries are potentially life-threatening. However, because of the rarity of the disease, its pathogenesis and optimal treatment strategy remain poorly defined. METHODS A nationwide retrospective cohort study investigated patients who underwent surgical treatment for a primary infected abdominal aortic and/or common iliac artery (CIA) aneurysm between 2011 and 2017 using a Japanese clinical registry. The study evaluated the relationships between preoperative factors and postoperative outcomes including 90-day and 3-year mortality, and persistent or recurrent aneurysm-related infection. Propensity score matching was used to compare survival between patients who underwent in situ prosthetic grafting and those who had endovascular aneurysm repair (EVAR). RESULTS Some 862 patients were included in the analysis. Preceding infection was identified in 30.2 per cent of the patients. The median duration of postoperative follow-up was 639 days. Cumulative overall survival rates at 30 days, 90 days, 1 year, 3 years and 5 years were 94.0, 89.7, 82.6, 74.9 and 68.5 per cent respectively. Age, preoperative shock and hypoalbuminaemia were independently associated with short-term and late mortality. Compared with open repair, EVAR was more closely associated with persistent or recurrent aneurysm-related infection (odds ratio 2.76, 95 per cent c.i. 1.67 to 4.58; P < 0.001). Propensity score-matched analyses demonstrated no significant differences between EVAR and in situ graft replacement in terms of 3-year all-cause and aorta-related mortality rates (P = 0.093 and P =0.472 respectively). CONCLUSION In patients undergoing surgical intervention for primary infected abdominal aortic and CIA aneursyms, postoperative survival rates were encouraging. Eradication of infection following EVAR appeared less likely than with open repair, but survival rates were similar in matched patients between EVAR and in situ graft replacement.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Quantifying the risks and benefits of revascularization for chronic limb-threatening ischaemia (CLTI) is important. The aim of this study was to create a risk prediction model for treatment outcomes 30 days after revascularization in patients with CLTI. METHODS Consecutive patients with CLTI who had undergone revascularization between 2013 and 2016 were collected from the JAPAN Critical Limb Ischemia Database (JCLIMB). The cohort was divided into a development and a validation cohort. In the development cohort, multivariable risk models were constructed to predict major amputation and/or death and major adverse limb events using least absolute shrinkage and selection operator logistic regression. This developed model was applied to the validation cohort and its performance was evaluated using c-statistic and calibration plots. RESULTS Some 2906 patients were included in the analysis. The major amputation and/or mortality rate within 30 days of arterial reconstruction was 5.0 per cent (144 of 2906), and strong predictors were abnormal white blood cell count, emergency procedure, congestive heart failure, body temperature of 38°C or above, and hemodialysis. Conversely, moderate, low or no risk in the Geriatric Nutritional Risk Index (GNRI) and ambulatory status were associated with improved results. The c-statistic value was 0.82 with high prediction accuracy. The rate of major adverse limb events was 6.4 per cent (185 of 2906), and strong predictors were abnormal white blood cell count and body temperature of 38°C or above. Moderate, low or no risk in the GNRI, and age greater than 84 years were associated with improved results. The c-statistic value was 0.79, with high prediction accuracy. CONCLUSION This risk prediction model can help in deciding on the treatment strategy in patients with CLTI and serve as an index for evaluating the quality of each medical facility.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Information about real-time three-dimensional (3D) transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) for the evaluation of canine mitral valve morphology is lacking in veterinary medicine. OBJECTIVES To evaluate the feasibility of 3D TEE for the evaluation of canine mitral valves and whether there was a difference in mitral valve morphology between American College of Veterinary Internal Medicine (ACVIM) stages. ANIMALS Thirty-one dogs were evaluated, including nine dogs classified as ACVIM stage B2, 15 as stage C, and seven as stage D. MATERIALS AND METHODS Three-dimensional TEE was performed after anesthetic induction for mitral valve surgery, and the 3D geometry of the mitral valve apparatus was measured. RESULTS The intraclass correlation coefficient was good in both inter- and intraobserver analyses of the 3D measurements of mitral valve annulus geometry and excellent in both inter- and intraobserver analyses in the 3D measurements of mitral valve annular and leaflet sizes. Annulus height to commissural width ratio of stage D dogs showed significantly lower values than B2 dogs (B2: 14.2% [9.1-20.5%]; C: 10.6% [6.5-24.1%]; D: 9.5% [4.7-13.8%]). The aortic-mitral angle of stages C and D were significantly flatter than stage B2 (B2: 122.32 ± 9.39; C: 133.66 ± 8.43; D: 140.70 ± 10.70). CONCLUSIONS Real-time 3D echocardiography using TEE is a feasible method to evaluate the morphology of the mitral valve in dogs. The saddle shape of the mitral annulus and aortic-mitral angle were flatter in stage D. Further studies are required to understand the pathology of mitral valve disease in dogs.

Abstract
Prostate cancer is a highly heritable disease with large disparities in incidence rates across ancestry populations. We conducted a multiancestry meta-analysis of prostate cancer genome-wide association studies (107,247 cases and 127,006 controls) and identified 86 new genetic risk variants independently associated with prostate cancer risk, bringing the total to 269 known risk variants. The top genetic risk score (GRS) decile was associated with odds ratios that ranged from 5.06 (95% confidence interval (CI), 4.84-5.29) for men of European ancestry to 3.74 (95% CI, 3.36-4.17) for men of African ancestry. Men of African ancestry were estimated to have a mean GRS that was 2.18-times higher (95% CI, 2.14-2.22), and men of East Asian ancestry 0.73-times lower (95% CI, 0.71-0.76), than men of European ancestry. These findings support the role of germline variation contributing to population differences in prostate cancer risk, with the GRS offering an approach for personalized risk prediction.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
The prognostic impact of atrial fibrillation (AF) in patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) is not fully elucidated.
Purpose
The aim of this study was to examine the prevalence and prognostic impact of AF in a prospectively assembled community-based HCM patient cohort in an aged Japanese community.
Methods
In 2004, we established a cardiomyopathy registration network in Kochi Prefecture, Japan, consisting of 9 hospitals, and finally 293 patients with HCM were followed.
Results
The ages at registration and at diagnosis were 63±14 and 56±16 years, respectively, and 197 patients (67%) were men. 86 patients (29%) showed AF. During follow-up period of 6.1±3.2 years, 44 patients died. In those patients, HCM-related deaths occurred in 23 patients with an annual mortality rate of 1.3%. Regarding HCM-related adverse events including HCM-related deaths, appropriate ICD discharge, heart failure admission and hospitalization for embolic events, a total of 77 cardiovascular events in 70 patients occurred. Multivariate analysis revealed that presence of AF, left ventricular (LV) outflow obstruction, NYHA functional class III, and lower LV fractional shortening at registration were significant predictors of these adverse events. During the follow-up period, additional 31 patients (11%) developed new-onset AF. Importantly, the incidence of HCM-related adverse events was significantly higher in patients with new AF observed from its onset compared with those with AF at registration (log-rank p=0.029) (Figure 1).
Conclusions
In an unselected HCM registry in an aged Japanese community, presence of AF, particularly new-onset AF, was associated with unfavorable clinical outcomes. AF is not just a marker of the disease stage but an important trigger of HCM-related adverse events.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
The distal transradial approach (dTRA) is a newly developed technique expected to reduce bleeding and other complications, such as occlusions, arising from the nature of the puncture site during transradial access. However, there is a paucity of data with regard to the nursing workload during or after achieving hemostasis. The present study aimed to evaluate the workload of the nursing service associated with dTRA in patients undergoing diagnostic coronary angiography (CAG).
Methods
Two-hundred patients who underwent CAG using a 4-Fr sheath system in our hospital between October 2017 and September 2018 were enrolled in the study. Of the total, 100 patients underwent dTRA for CAG (dTRA group), and the other 100 patients underwent the conventional transradial approach (TRA) for CAG (TRA group). After CAG, continuous compression was performed for 3 hours in the TRA group using a TR Band™, which is a hemostasis device for TRA, to remove 2 ccs and 3 ccs of air at 30 and 120 minutes, respectively. If bleeding occurred, 1 to 2 ccs were replaced using the band, followed by a wait time of 15 minutes. Similarly, continuous compression was performed in the dTRA group usingSTEPTY™, a compression tape with a 6-mm-thick pad at the central portion, and the patient’s arm was wrapped in an elastic bandage for 2 hours after CAG. We compared the dTRA and TRA groups in terms of nursing workload associated with the achievement of hemostasis and the complications related to the puncture site.
Results
The nursing-service workload associated with the management of hemostasis, including the nursing hours, the time taken to measure vitals, and the recording times were found to be significantly shorter for the dTRA group compared to that of the TRA group (2.1 ± 0.5 vs 4.1 ± 0.7 times, p < 0.001; 2.1 ± 0.4 vs 4.1 ± 0.7 times, p < 0.001; 2.1 ± 0.4 vs 4.1 ± 0.6 times, p < 0.001, respectively). Further, the number of cases requiring treatment for bleeding was fewer in the dTRA group than in the TRA group (3 vs 12 cases, p < 0.05).
Conclusions
The workload of the nursing service associated with achieving hemostasis in the dTRA group was significantly lower compared to that in the TRA group. The introduction of dTRA for routine coronary catheterization possibly help in reducing the complications and the nursing workload in daily nursing practices.

Abstract
Background
One of the novel echocardiographic indices reflecting left ventricular (LV) diastolic filling is the combination of mitral annular peak systolic (s’) and early diastolic velocities (e’) with early transmitral peak flow velocity (E); E/(e’ x s’). This index is reported to be useful to predict a prognosis of heart failure patients regardless of their LV ejection fraction (LVEF).Purpose: The aim of this study was to examine whether or not E/(e’ x s’) could predict cardiac events in patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS).Methods: We studies consecutive ACS patients hospitalized in our institution between December 2009 and February 2012. They underwent echo examination within 7 days after admission. By use of Doppler tissue imaging, e’ and s’ were respectively calculated by averaging the peak velocities measured at both septal and lateral mitral annulus in 4-chamber view. The exclusion criteria were as follows: atrial fibrillation, significant valvular diseases and inadequate echo images. Cardiac events were defined as re-hospitalization due to recurrent ACS and/or heart failure, and cardiac mortality.Results: In total, 168 patients were eligible for this study (mean age 67 ± 11 years, mean LVEF 51.7 ± 10.3 %). Median follow-up period was 22.5 months. During the follow-up, cardiac events occurred in 27 patients (16.1%). Between the patients with cardiac events and those without, there were significant differences in LV end-systolic volume (44.2 ± 29.1 vs 33.2 ± 13.6 ml, p < 0.05), LV mass index (122.4 ± 38.9 vs 107.5 ± 26.4 g/m², p < 0.05), left atrial volume index (31.7 ± 9.2 vs 27.6 ± 9.4 ml/m², p < 0.05), LVEF (45.7 ± 13.5 vs 52.9 ± 9.2 %, p < 0.05), s’ (5.1 ± 1.6 vs 7.1 ± 1.7 cm/sec, p < 0.001), e’ (4.8 ± 1.3 vs 6.0 ± 1.9 cm/sec, p < 0.05), E/e’ (16.4 ± 6.6 vs 12.5 ± 4.9, p < 0.05), E/(e’ x s’) (3.78 ± 2.52 vs 1.94 ± 1.08, p < 0.001), and serum B-type natriuretic peptide (334.7 ± 420.1 vs 113.8 ± 177.2 pg/ml, p < 0.05). While Cox proportional hazard multivariate analysis detected that E/(e’ x s’) and E/e’ were independent predictors of cardiac events, E/(e’ x s’) was more powerful than E/e’ (p = 0.0002 vs p = 0.0072). ROC analysis revealed that 2.35 of E/(e’ x s’) was the optimal cutoff values to predict cardiac events in ACS patients (AUC 0.79). Patients with E/(e’ x s’) <2.35 had significantly better prognosis than the rest (p < 0.0001, Log-rank; Figure)Conclusion: E/(e’ x s’) could be a useful echo marker to predict cardiac events in ACS patients.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
It remains to be clarified whether clinical significance of left ventricular (LV) diastolic function differs depending on the severity of LV systolic dysfunction in patients with acute heart failure (AHF). The aim of this study was to examine the prognostic role of LV diastolic function in AHF patients with various systolic dysfunction.Methods: We studied consecutive hospitalized AHF patients with LV ejection fraction (LVEF) <50%. The exclusion criteria were as follows: atrial fibrillation, severe mitral regurgitation, and inadequate echo image quality. They underwent echocardiography on admission. The eligible patients (n = 289, 165 males, 76 ± 10 years) were divided into 4 groups based on LVEF and left atrial pressure (LAP) grade estimated as in the ESC guidelines: Group I (LVEF 40-49% (mildly reduced LVEF)/normal LAP, n = 28), II (mildly reduced EF/increased LAP, n = 38), III (LVEF <40% (severely reduced LVEF)/normal LAP, n = 110), and IV (severely reduced LVEF/increased LAP, n = 113). Cardiac death was examined up to 60 months.Results: In total, 58 patients (20%) died because of cardiac events during the follow-up (mean 20 ± 19 months). In patients with mildly reduced LVEF, Group I showed significantly less cardiac death ratio than II (n = 1 vs 10, Group I vs II, p = 0.03). On the other hand, in patients with severely reduced LVEF, there was no significant difference in cardiac death ratio between Group III and IV (n = 23 vs 24, Group III vs IV, p = 0.80). That is, LAP grade was a prognostic marker when the patients had mild LV systolic dysfunction, whereas it did not contribute to the prediction of cardiac mortality when patients showed severely reduced LV systolic function. Group I showed significantly better prognosis than those with severe LV systolic dysfunction regardless of LAP grade (Group III, IV) (Group I vs III, p = 0.04; Group I vs IV, p = 0.04).Conclusions: LV diastolic function may have a different clinical significance depending on the severity of LV systolic dysfunction in AHF patients.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
The distal transradial approach (dTRA) for coronary catheterisation is a newly introduced alternative to the conventional transradial approach. This technique is expected to decrease the incidence of haemorrhagic complications and improve patient comfort. However, limited data are available regarding the application of this technique in patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI). This study investigated the feasibility and safety of the dTRA for primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in patients with AMI.
Methods
This study included patients with AMI who underwent primary PCI via the distal radial artery across 3 Japanese hospitals between January 2018 and January 2019. Patients' background, procedural characteristics, and clinical outcomes including the incidence of haemorrhagic complications were analysed.
Results
This study enrolled 95 consecutive patients with AMI, including 68 patients (71.6%) with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI), in whom distal radial artery puncture was attempted for primary PCI. The patients included 70 men (73.7%), and the mean age was 72.2±12.4 years. Among these patients, cannulation was successfully performed in 89 patients (93.7%). A 5-, 6-, or 7-French sheath (conventional or slender) was used in this study. Cannulation was performed using a forearm radial artery approach in patients in whom dTRA failed.
PCI was successfully performed in all patients. The meantime to achieve haemostasis was 6.3±5.3 hours, and no major bleeding complications occurred. Based on The Early Discharge After Transradial Stenting of Coronary Arteries trial haematoma scale, grade I, II, and III subcutaneous haemorrhages were observed in 16 (16.8%), 4 (4.2%), and 1 patient (1.1%), respectively. No patient developed a haematoma > grade IV.
In patients with STEMI, the mean door-to-balloon time was 39.4±31.9 min, and the mean puncture-to-balloon time was 19.7±14.2 min.
Conclusions
The distal radial approach is feasible and safefor primary PCI in selected patients with AMI.The application of the dTRA may serve as a less invasive strategy for the treatment of patients with AMI.

Abstract
We conducted a detailed study of lymphangiogenesis and subsequent lymph node metastasis in early-stage esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) using immunostaining for D2-40 and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF)-C and D. The study materials included 13 samples of normal squamous epithelium, 6 samples of low-grade intraepithelial neoplasia (LGIN), and 60 samples of superficial ESCC (M1 and M2 cancer 24; M3 or deeper cancer 36). We assessed lymphatic vessel density (LVD) using D2-40 and immunoreactivity for VEGF-C and D in relation to histological type, lymphatic invasion, and lymph node metastasis. LVD in M1 and M2 lesions and M3 or deeper lesions was significantly higher than in normal squamous epithelium (P < 0.001). High expression of VEGF-C and D was observed in M1 and M2 cancer and in M3 or deeper cancer, but not in normal squamous epithelium or LGIN. LVD in VEGF-C- and D-positive cases was significantly higher than in negative cases (P < 0.001). In M3 or deeper cancer, the correlation between VEGF-C or D status and lymphatic invasion or lymph node metastasis was not significant. LVD in cases with positive lymphatic invasion and those with lymph node metastasis was significantly higher than in cases lacking either (P = 0.02 and 0.03, respectively). ESCC cells produce VEGF-C and D from the very early stage of progression. VEGF-C and D activate lymphangiogenesis, and this increase of lymphatic vessels leads to lymphatic invasion and subsequent lymph node metastasis.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Osterix (Osx)-expressing mesenchymal cells are progenitors for tooth root forming cells. The aim of this study was to reveal the fates of Osx-expressing cells during and after root formation using a lineage tracing experiment. MATERIAL AND METHODS To reveal the fates of Osx-expressing dental mesenchymal progenitors, we took advantage of tamoxifen-inducible Cre reporter system. Osx-creER; R26R-tdTomato mice received tamoxifen (0.1 mg/body) at postnatal day 3 (P3). In this system, Osx-expressing at P3 (Osx-P3) cells undergo recombination, and they and their descendants continue to express Tomato red fluorescence protein permanently. Mandibles were dissected at serial time points ranging from P4 to P116 to investigate how Osx-P3 cells participated in root formation. Tomato+ cells on frozen sections were imaged under fluorescence microscopy. RESULTS Osx-P3 cells and their descendants differentiated into all kinds of cells that contributed to the root and periodontal tissues, such as odontoblasts, cementoblasts, alveolar bone osteoblasts and periodontal ligament (PDL) cells during root formation. Even after root formation was completed, they persisted in dental pulp and PDL to provide progenitor cells for odontoblasts and cementoblasts. CONCLUSION Osx-expressing cells play important roles in the entire processes of tooth root formation; their progeny continue to contribute to maintenance of tooth root even after root formation is complete.

Abstract
The purpose of this study was to evaluate liposome-encapsulated hemoglobin, named Neo Red Cells (NRC), on hemodynamics and oxygen-transport capacity in a blood exchange experiment. The experiment was carried out in nine mongrel dogs. Depending on the percentage of blood exchange with NRC, the animals were divided into two groups; Group I (4 animals with an exchange rate less than 88%), and Group II (5 animals with an exchange rate over 88%). After blood exchange, total peripheral vascular resistance index (TPRI) decreased and cardiac index (CI) increased. These changes were more marked in Group II than in Group I, thus showing that NRC relieved the burden on the heart, probably due to the fact that the viscosity of NRC is 2 cp which is less than 1/3 that of whole blood. The oxygen binding capacity per 1g hemoglobin in NRC was 2-4 times as much as red blood cells. Thus, NRC was superior to natural red blood cells in terms of oxygen transport capacity and its effects on the circulatory system.

Abstract
This study evaluated the newly developed artificial red blood cells named Neo Red Cells (NRC) after hemorrhagic shock in mongrel dogs. NRC is prepared as microcapsules by a method in which stroma-free hemoglobin is encapsulated using a bimolecular lipid membrane called liposome. The particle size is 0.2 μm, methemoglobin content is less than 5% and the hemoglobin concentration is 5.6 g/dl. We analyzed blood gases and hemodynamics and carried out laboratory examinations after 59-88% blood exchange using NRC. The hemodynamic parameters returned to the normal range after NRC. Inhaling normal room air, oxygen carried by NRC was 60.40% at the exchange rate of 88%. Renal and hepatic function and other laboratory findings were normal after administration of NRC. After further study and improvement NRC could be considered suitable as artificial blood for treatment of hemorrhagic shock.

Abstract
Genome-wide association studies (GWASs) have identified several susceptibility loci for bipolar disorder (BD) and shown that the genetic architecture of BD can be explained by polygenicity, with numerous variants contributing to BD. In the present GWAS (Phase I/II), which included 2964 BD and 61 887 control subjects from the Japanese population, we detected a novel susceptibility locus at 11q12.2 (rs28456, P=6.4 × 10-9), a region known to contain regulatory genes for plasma lipid levels (FADS1/2/3). A subsequent meta-analysis of Phase I/II and the Psychiatric GWAS Consortium for BD (PGC-BD) identified another novel BD gene, NFIX (Pbest=5.8 × 10-10), and supported three regions previously implicated in BD susceptibility: MAD1L1 (Pbest=1.9 × 10-9), TRANK1 (Pbest=2.1 × 10-9) and ODZ4 (Pbest=3.3 × 10-9). Polygenicity of BD within Japanese and trans-European-Japanese populations was assessed with risk profile score analysis. We detected higher scores in BD cases both within (Phase I/II) and across populations (Phase I/II and PGC-BD). These were defined by (1) Phase II as discovery and Phase I as target, or vice versa (for 'within Japanese comparisons', Pbest~10-29, R2~2%), and (2) European PGC-BD as discovery and Japanese BD (Phase I/II) as target (for 'trans-European-Japanese comparison,' Pbest~10-13, R2~0.27%). This 'trans population' effect was supported by estimation of the genetic correlation using the effect size based on each population (liability estimates~0.7). These results indicate that (1) two novel and three previously implicated loci are significantly associated with BD and that (2) BD 'risk' effect are shared between Japanese and European populations.
