Abstract
Inherited arrhythmia syndromes (IASs) can cause life-threatening arrhythmias and are responsible for a significant proportion of sudden cardiac deaths (SCDs). Despite progress in the development of devices to prevent SCDs, the precise molecular mechanisms that induce detrimental arrhythmias remain to be fully investigated, and more effective therapies are desirable. In the present study, we screened a large-scale randomly mutagenized mouse library by electrocardiography to establish a disease model of IASs and consequently found one pedigree that exhibited spontaneous ventricular arrhythmias (VAs) followed by SCD within 1 y after birth. Genetic analysis successfully revealed a missense mutation (p.I4093V) of the ryanodine receptor 2 gene to be a cause of the arrhythmia. We found an age-related increase in arrhythmia frequency accompanied by cardiomegaly and decreased ventricular contractility in the Ryr2I4093V/+ mice. Ca2+ signaling analysis and a ryanodine binding assay indicated that the mutant ryanodine receptor 2 had a gain-of-function phenotype and enhanced Ca2+ sensitivity. Using this model, we detected the significant suppression of VA following flecainide or dantrolene treatment. Collectively, we established an inherited life-threatening arrhythmia mouse model from an electrocardiogram-based screen of randomly mutagenized mice. The present IAS model may prove feasible for use in investigating the mechanisms of SCD and assessing therapies.

Abstract
Biologically compatible vascular grafts are urgently required. The scaffoldless multi-layered vascular wall is considered to offer theoretical advantages, such as facilitating cells to form cell-cell and cell-matrix junctions and natural extracellular matrix networks. Simple methods are desired for fabricating physiological scaffoldless tissue-engineered vascular grafts. Here, we showed that periodic hydrostatic pressurization under hypoxia (HP/HYP) facilitated the fabrication of multi-layered tunica media entirely from human vascular smooth muscle cells. Compared with normoxic atmospheric pressure, HP/HYP increased expression of N-myc downstream-regulated 1 (NDRG1) and the collagen-cross-linking enzyme lysyl oxidase in human umbilical artery smooth muscle cells. HP/HYP increased N-cadherin-mediated cell-cell adhesion via NDRG1, cell-matrix interaction (i.e., clustering of integrin α5β1 and fibronectin), and collagen fibrils. We then fabricated vascular grafts using HP/HYP during repeated cell seeding and obtained 10-layered smooth muscle grafts with tensile rupture strength of 0.218-0.396 MPa within 5 weeks. Implanted grafts into the rat aorta were endothelialized after 1 week and patent after 5 months, at which time most implanted cells had been replaced by recipient-derived cells. These results suggest that HP/HYP enables fabrication of scaffoldless human vascular mimetics that have a spatial arrangement of cells and matrices, providing potential clinical applications for cardiovascular diseases. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE: Tissue-engineered vascular grafts (TEVGs) are theoretically more biocompatible than prosthetic materials in terms of mechanical properties and recipient cell-mediated tissue reconstruction. Although some promising results have been shown, TEVG fabrication processes are complex, and the ideal method is still desired. We focused on the environment in which the vessels develop in utero and found that mechanical loading combined with hypoxia facilitated formation of cell-cell and cell-matrix junctions and natural extracellular matrix networks in vitro, which resulted in the fabrication of multi-layered tunica media entirely from human umbilical artery smooth muscle cells. These scaffoldless TEVGs, produced using a simple process, were implantable and have potential clinical applications for cardiovascular diseases.

Abstract
The photocatalytic properties of anodic oxides on a newly developed TiNbSn and commonly used Ti6Al4V alloys as biomaterials were investigated. The alloys were anodized in an electrolyte of sodium tartrate acid with H2O2 at a high voltage and the mechanism of the photocatalytic and antiviral activities was studied. The anodized TiNbSn and Ti6Al4V exhibited highly crystallized rutile TiO2 and poorly crystallized anatase TiO2, respectively. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy analysis revealed the presence of oxides of the alloying elements in addition to TiO2. The anodized TiNbSn exhibited higher activities than Ti6Al4V, and electron spin resonance spectra indicated that the number of hydroxyl radicals (⋅OH) generated from the anodized TiNbSn was higher than that from the anodized Ti6Al4V. The results can be explained by two possible mechanisms: the higher crystallinity of TiO2 on TiNbSn than that on the Ti6Al4V reduces the number of charge recombination sites and generates abundant ⋅OH; charge separation in the anodic oxide on TiNbSn due to the electronic band structure between TiO2 and the oxides of alloying elements enhances photo activities. The excellent photoinduced characteristics of the anodized TiNbSn are expected to contribute to the safe and reliable implant treatment.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Magnification endoscopy and magnification narrow-band imaging are image enhanced endoscopy technologies that may allow for the diagnosis of advanced neoplasia in the GI tract on the basis of imaging characteristics. Recently, the Unified Magnifying Endoscopic Classification (UMEC) has been developed, which unified the criteria for the esophagus, stomach, and colon. UMEC divides optical diagnosis into one of the three categories: non-neoplastic, intramucosal neoplasia, and deep submucosal invasive cancer.
Purpose
The objective of this study is to educate North American endoscopists on the use of the UMEC schema, and to ascertain performance of the UMEC framework among North American endoscopists.
Method
Using UMEC, five North American endoscopists (>1000 procedures) without prior training in magnifying endoscopy independently diagnosed previously collected endoscopic image set of the esophagus, stomach, and colon. The endoscopists were trained on the use of UMEC via an eleven-minute training video with exemplars of each element of UMEC from esophagus, stomach, and colon. All endoscopists were blinded to white-light and non-magnifying NBI findings as well as histopathological diagnosis. The diagnostic performance of UMEC was assessed while using the gold standard histopathology as a reference.
Result(s)
A total of 299 gastrointestinal lesions (77 esophagus, 92 stomach, and 130 colon) were assessed using UMEC. For esophageal squamous cell carcinoma, the sensitivity, specificity, and accuracy for all 5 endoscopists ranged from 65.2% (95% CI: 50.9–77.9) to 87.0% (95% CI: 75.3–94.6), 77.4% (95% CI: 60.9–89.6) to 96.8% (95% CI: 86.8–99.8), and 75.3% to 87.0%, respectively. For gastric adenocarcinoma, the sensitivity, specificity, and accuracy for all 5 endoscopists ranged from 94.9% (95% CI: 85.0–99.1) to 100%, 52.9% (95% CI: 39.4–66.2) to 92.2% (95% CI: 82.7–97.5), and 73.3% to 93.3%, respectively. For colorectal adenocarcinoma, the sensitivity, specificity, and accuracy for all 5 endoscopists ranged from 76.2% (95% CI: 62.0–87.3) to 83.3% (95% CI: 70.3–92.5), 89.7% (95% CI: 82.1–94.9) to 97.7% (95% CI: 93.1–99.6), and 86.8% to 90.7%, respectively.

Abstract
BackgroundSystemic sclerosis (SSc) is an autoimmune disease that is characterized by systemic vasculopathy and fibrosis. Pulmonary hypertension (PH), defined as elevated pulmonary arterial pressure (PAP), is one of the leading causes of death of SSc1. In recent years, various therapies have been developed to target each of the pathogenesis of SSc – autoimmunity, vasculopathy, and fibrosis. Accordingly, treatment strategies based on risk stratification for PH progression are aspired; however, prediction of changes in PAP in diverse patients with SSc has not been established2.ObjectivesTo visualize the patterns of PAP elevation in SSc and to identify the clinical characteristics of each trajectory, by applying latent trajectory modeling for PAP measured repeatedly by echocardiography.MethodsThis was a multicenter, retrospective cohort study conducted at four referral hospitals in Kyoto, Japan. Patients with SSc who visited the study site between April 2008 and March 2021 and had at least three echocardiographic measurements of systolic pulmonary arterial pressure (sPAP) were included in this study. Follow-up concluded in March 2021. A group-based trajectory model3 was applied to the change in sPAP over time, and individual patients were classified into distinct subgroups that followed similar trajectories. The number and shape of the trajectories were estimated based on adequacy, goodness of fit, parsimony, and interpretability of the model. Clinical plausibility was assessed by comparing PH-free survival, i.e., time to either PH or death, for each trajectory. Multinomial logistic regression analysis was performed for baseline clinical characteristics associated with trajectory assignment.ResultsA total of 236 patients with a total of 1097 sPAP measurements were included. We identified five trajectories following the quadratic function as “rapid progression (n=9, 3.8%)”, “early elevation (n=30, 12.7%)”, “mid elevation (n=54, 22.9%)”, “late elevation (n=24, 10.2%)”, and “low stable (n=119, 50.4%)”. Each trajectory, in this order, showed earlier elevation of sPAP and shorter PH-free survival (Figure 1). In the multinomial logistic regression (with the “low stable” as reference), cardiac involvement was associated with the “rapid progression” (adjusted odds ratio [OR] 28.9, 95% confidence interval [CI] 3.21–259.5), diffuse cutaneous SSc was associated with the “early elevation” (OR 4.08, 95% CI 1.27–13.1), anti-centromere antibody positive was associated with the “mid elevation” (OR 4.50, 95% CI 1.11–18.2), and older age of onset was associated with the above three trajectories.ConclusionThe pattern of changes in pulmonary artery pressure over time in SSc can be classified into five distinct trajectories. Each trajectory differed in baseline clinical characteristics and outcomes.References[1]Pokeerbux MR, et al.

Abstract
To clarify the effect of collagen addition to transplanted adipose tissue on angiogenesis, cell proliferation and tissue remodelling process and reveal whether collagen addition contributes to improving transplanted adipose tissue engraftment in rats. Adipose tissue was harvested from the inguinal and injected into the back of the rat, in addition to collagen. Engraftment tissue was harvested, semi-quantitatively evaluated and underwent haematoxylin and eosin or Perilipin staining. Moreover, we evaluated viable adipocyte counts and neovascularisation. Macrophages were evaluated using flow cytometry, and the adiponectin or vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) mRNA was detected using real-time polymerase chain reaction. By collagen addition to transplanted adipose tissue, higher engraftment rate semi-quantitatively and a greater number of new blood vessels histologically were identified. Perilipin staining revealed a higher adipocyte number. The total cell, M1 macrophage and M2 macrophage count were higher. There was increased adiponectin mRNA significantly at week 4 compared to that at week 1 after transplantation. Note that the expression levels of VEGF mRNA increased. In rats, adding collagen enhanced cell proliferation, induced M2 macrophages, which are involved in wound healing, and promoted adipocytes and neovascularisation. Therefore, collagen addition to transplanted adipose tissue could increase the engraftment rate of adipose tissue.

Abstract
The activity of the TRPM7 channel is negatively regulated by intracellular Mg2+. We previously reported that oxidative stress enhances the inhibition of TRPM7 by intracellular Mg2+. Here, we aimed to clarify the mechanism underlying TRPM7 inhibition by hydrogen peroxide (H2O2). Site-directed mutagenesis of full-length TRPM7 revealed that none of the cysteines other than C1809 and C1813 within the zinc-binding motif of the TRPM7 kinase domain were involved in the H2O2-induced TRPM7 inhibition. Mutation of C1809 or C1813 prevented expression of full-length TRPM7 on the plasma membrane. We therefore developed an assay to functionally reconstitute full-length TRPM7 by coexpressing the TRPM7 channel domain (M7cd) and the TRPM7 kinase domain (M7kd) as separate proteins in HEK293 cells. When M7cd was expressed alone, the current was inhibited by intracellular Mg2+ more strongly than that of full-length TRPM7 and was insensitive to oxidative stress. Coexpression of M7cd and M7kd attenuated the inhibition by intracellular Mg2+ and restored sensitivity to oxidative stress, indicating successful reconstitution of a full-length TRPM7-like current. We observed a similar effect when M7cd was coexpressed with the kinase-inactive mutant M7kd-K1645R, suggesting that the kinase activity is not essential for the reconstitution. However, coexpression of M7cd and M7kd carrying a mutation at either C1809 or C1813 failed to restore the full-length TRPM7-like current. No reconstitution was observed when using M7kd carrying a mutation at H1750 and H1807, which are involved in the zinc-binding motif formation with C1809 and C1813. These data suggest that the zinc-binding motif is essential for the intracellular Mg2+-dependent regulation of the TRPM7 channel activity by its kinase domain and that the cysteines in the zinc-binding motif play a role in the oxidative stress response of TRPM7.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
The optimal anticoagulant regimen for elderly AF has not been well elucidated, because this population, especially the very elderly (≥85 years), have not been sufficiently represented in most randomized controlled clinical trials for stroke prevention in non-valvular AF (NVAF).
Purpose
The ANAFIE registry was designed to evaluate the real-world anticoagulant treatment status of elderly (≥75 years) NVAF patients including >8,000 very elderly patients. In this main analysis of the ANAFIE, the incidence of stroke or systemic embolic events (stroke/SEE), and major bleeding were compared between warfarin (WF) and direct oral anticoagulants (DOACs).
Methods
A total of 33,018 NVAF patients aged ≥75 years was enrolled in the ANAFIE, and followed for 2 years. The incidence of stroke/SEE and major bleeding by type of anticoagulants (WF and all DOACs) was estimated using Kaplan-Meier method. Hazard ratio (HR) and 95% confidence interval (95% CI) were calculated by Cox proportional hazard model.
Results
In the analysis set of 32,099 patients, the mean age was 81.5 years. 23,738 (74%) were <85 years and 8,361 (26.0%) were ≥85 years. 92.5% of the whole population used anticoagulants including WF (27.6%) or DOACs (72.3%). The ratio of each DOAC was dabigatran 7.8%, rivaroxaban 21.5%, apixaban 26.9% and edoxaban 16.1%. Stroke/SEE and major bleeding was observed in 396 patients (1.24/100 patient-years [py]) and 279 patients (0.87/100py). The time in therapeutic range for patients <85 years and ≥85 years in the WF group was 76.7% and 72.2%, respectively. The incidence of stroke/SEE was numerically lower in patients taking any DOAC vs. WF regardless of age group (<85 years [HR 0.83] and ≥85 years [HR 0.71]). Major bleeding was also lower vs. WF in both age groups (<85 years [HR 0.60] and ≥85 years [HR 0.65]).
Conclusion
In elderly NVAF patients enrolled in the ANAFIE registry, the incidence of stroke/SEE and major bleeding was lower in patients taking a DOAC compared with WF for all patients ≥75 years, even for very elderly patients.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Bleeding is associated with shorter life expectancy during anticoagulant treatment in atrial fibrillation (AF) patients. Prior studies showed bleeding during anticoagulant treatment occurred more frequently in elderly AF patients than in younger AF patients. HAS-BLED score is a risk assessment tool for bleeding. However, since it was developed from the database of patients with warfarin, it has not been clarified whether this score is applicable in the era of direct oral anticoagulant (DOACs), especially for elderly AF patients.
Purpose
All Nippon AF In the Elderly (ANAFIE) registry was designed to obtain real-world information regarding patients with non-valvular AF (NVAF) aged ≥75 years, including current status of anticoagulant therapy and prognosis. The present study aimed to determine factors that associate with major bleeding for elderly NVAF patients using the dataset of ANAFIE registry conducted in Japan.
Methods
Total of 32,099 patients aged ≥75 years with NVAF were enrolled in ANAFIE registry, and followed for 2 years. Incidence rates of major bleeding for total population, <85 years old group and ≥85 years old group were estimated using Kaplan-Meier method. Cox proportional hazards model was used to determine independent predictors of major bleeding. The factors included in the model were selected by backward elimination procedure.
Results
Mean age was 81.5 years. 23,738 (74.0%) was <85 years old and 8,361 (26.0%) was ≥85 years old. 92.5% of whole population used anticoagulants including warfarin (27.6%) or DOACs (72.3%). Major bleeding occurred in 279 patients at 12 months with 189 in <85 years and 90 in ≥85 years old group. The cumulative incidence rate of major bleeding at 12 months by Kaplan-Meier method was 0.9% in whole patients, and was slightly higher in ≥85 years than in <85 years old group (1.1% vs 0.8%). In multivariate analysis of the whole patients, history of major bleeding (hazard ratio [HR]: 2.17), severe hepatic dysfunction (HR: 3.62), malignancy (HR: 1.52), falling within a year (HR: 2.07), antiplatelet use (HR: 1.37) and warfarin use (HR: 1.81) emerged as independent predictors of major bleeding. Severe hepatic dysfunction (HR: 9.17), HbA1c <6.0% (HR: 2.19) and dementia (HR: 2.00) were associated with major bleeding in patients only in aged ≥85 years. On the other hand, proton pump inhibitor use (HR: 1.36), creatinine clearance <30 mL/min (HR: 1.53) and polypharmacy (HR: 1.61) were associated with major bleeding only in those aged <85 years.
Conclusion
Among elderly (≥75 years old) Japanese NVAF patients in the era of DOACs, prior major bleeding, severe hepatic dysfunction, malignancy, falling within a year, antiplatelet use and warfarin use were identified as independent predictors of major bleeding. Impact of some predictors differed between the 2 age groups (<85 years vs ≥85 years).

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Since prevalence of atrial fibrillation (AF) is increasing by aging, AF in elderly has been recognized as a big burden to keep long lasting healthy life worldwide. CHADS2 and CHA2DS2-VASc scores are commonly used for stroke risk assessment for AF, but predictors for elderly was not well elucidated, especially for very elderly (≥85 years old) patients.
Purpose
All Nippon AF In the Elderly (ANAFIE) registry was designed to evaluate a real-world treatment status of elderly (≥75 years old) non-valvular AF (NVAF) patients, including anticoagulant therapy and outcomes. The present analysis aimed to identify factors for stroke/systemic embolic events (SEE) of elderly NVAF patients using the dataset of ANAFIE registry, which was conducted in Japan.
Methods
Total of 32,099 patients aged ≥75 years with NVAF were enrolled in ANAFIE registry, and followed for 2 years. Incidence of stroke/SEE for total population, <85 years old group and ≥85 years old group was estimated using Kaplan-Meier method. Cox proportional hazards model was used to determine independent predictors of stroke/SEE. The factors included in the model were selected by backward elimination procedure.
Results
Mean age was 81.5 years. 23,738 (74%) was <85 years old and 8,361 (26%) was ≥85 years old. Women were more prevalent in ≥85 years old than in <85 years old group (53.2 vs 39.0%). Mean CHADS2 and CHA2DS2-VASc scores in the ≥85 years group were 3.0 and 4.7, and 2.8 and 4.4 in the <85 years group, respectively. 92.5% of whole population used anti-coagulants including warfarin (27.6%) or direct oral anticoagulants (DOACs) (72.3%). Stroke/SEE occurred in 396 patients at 12 month with 256 in <85 years old and 140 in ≥85 years old group. The cumulative incidence rate of stroke/SEE by Kaplan-Meier method at 12 months was 1.2% in the whole patients, and was higher in ≥85 years than in <85 years old group (1.7% vs 1.1%). In the multivariate analysis using the whole patients, age ≥85 years (hazard ratio [HR]: 1.27), history of major bleeding (HR: 1.93), persistent AF (HR: 1.64), longstanding persistent and permanent AF (HR: 1.61), high systolic blood pressure (130-<140 [HR: 1.43], ≥140 [HR: 1.44]), prior stroke (HR: 2.09), dementia (HR: 1.34), creatinine clearance <30 mL/min (HR: 1.82) emerged as independent predictors. Independent predictors for stroke/SEE were almost similar between <85 and ≥85 years old group except hypertension and diabetes. High blood pressure was associated with stroke/SEE only in patients aged <85 years, and high blood sugar was only associated in patients aged ≥85 years.
Conclusion
Among elderly NVAF patients in the era of DOACs, higher age (≥85 years), type of AF, prior major bleeding, high blood pressure, prior stroke, dementia, and low creatinine clearance were identified as independent predictors of stroke/SEE. The blood pressure and blood sugar control differently affected <85 years vs ≥85 years old group.

Abstract
Advances in low-dimensional superconductivity are often realized through improvements in material quality. Apart from a small group of organic materials, there is a near absence of clean-limit two-dimensional (2D) superconductors, which presents an impediment to the pursuit of numerous long-standing predictions for exotic superconductivity with fragile pairing symmetries. We developed a bulk superlattice consisting of the transition metal dichalcogenide (TMD) superconductor 2H-niobium disulfide (2H-NbS2) and a commensurate block layer that yields enhanced two-dimensionality, high electronic quality, and clean-limit inorganic 2D superconductivity. The structure of this material may naturally be extended to generate a distinct family of 2D superconductors, topological insulators, and excitonic systems based on TMDs with improved material properties.

Abstract
TRPM7, a member of the melastatin subfamily of transient receptor potential channels, is suggested to be a potential candidate for a physiological Mg2+ channel. However, there is no direct evidence of Mg2+ permeation through endogenous TRPM7. To determine the physiological roles of TRPM7 in intracellular Mg2+ homeostasis, we measured the cytoplasmic free Mg2+ concentration ([Mg2+]i) in TRPM7-silenced H9c2 cells. [Mg2+]i was measured in a cluster of 8-10 cells using the fluorescent indicator, furaptra. TRPM7 silencing did not change [Mg2+]i in Ca2+-free Tyrode's solution containing 1 mM Mg2+. Increasing the extracellular Mg2+ to 92.5 mM raised [Mg2+]i in control cells (1.56 ± 0.19 mM) at 30 min, while this effect was significantly attenuated in TRPM7-silenced cells (1.12 ± 0.07 mM). The Mg2+ efflux driven by Na+ gradient was unaffected by TRPM7 silencing. These results suggest that TRPM7 regulates the rate of Mg2+ influx in H9c2 cells, although cytoplasmic Mg2+ homeostasis at basal conditions is unaffected by TRPM7 silencing.

Abstract
In adipocytes, intracellular Ca2+ and Mg2+ modulates physiological functions, such as insulin action and the secretion of adipokines. TRPM7 is a Ca2+/Mg2+‐permeable non‐selective cation channel. TRPM7 mRNA is highly expressed in adipose tissue, however, its functional expression in adipocytes remains to be elucidated. In this study, we demonstrated for the first time that TRPM7 was functionally expressed in both freshly isolated white adipocytes and in 3T3‐L1 adipocytes differentiated from a 3T3‐L1 pre‐adipocyte cell line by whole‐cell patch‐clamp recordings. Consistent with known properties of TRPM7 current, the current in adipocytes was activated by the elimination of extracellular divalent cations and the reduction of intracellular free Mg2+ concentrations, and was inhibited by the TRPM7 inhibitors, 2‐aminoethyl diphenylborinate (2‐APB), hydrogen peroxide (H2O2), N‐methyl maleimide (NMM), NS8593, and 2‐amino‐2‐[2‐(4‐octylphenyl)ethyl]‐1,3‐propanediol (FTY720). Treatment with small‐interfering (si) RNA targeting TRPM7 resulted in a reduction in the current to 23 ± 7% of nontargeting siRNA‐treated adipocytes. Moreover a TRPM7 activator, naltriben, increased the TRPM7‐like current and [Ca2+]i in 3T3‐L1 adipocytes but not in TRPM7‐knockdown adipocytes. These findings indicate that TRPM7 is functionally expressed, and plays a role as a Ca2+ influx pathway in adipocytes.

Abstract
Pear psyllids (Hemiptera: Psylloidea: Psyllidae: Cacopsylla spp.) belong to the most serious pests of pear (Pyrus spp.). They damage pear trees by excessive removal of phloem sap, by soiling the fruits with honeydew which, in turn, provides a substrate for sooty mould, and by transmission of Candidatus Phytoplasma spp., the causal agents of the pear decline disease. The morphological similarity, the presence of seasonal dimorphism that affects adult colour, size and wing morphology and uncritical use of species names, led to much confusion in the taxonomy of pear psyllids. As a result, pear psyllids have been frequently misidentified. Many of the entries attributed to Cacopsylla pyricola and other species in the GenBank are misidentifications which led to additional, unnecessary confusion. Here we analysed DNA barcodes of 11 pear psyllid species from eastern Asia, Europe and Iran using four mitochondrial gene fragments (COI 658 bp, COI 403 bp, COI-tRNAleu-COII 580 bp and 16S rDNA 452 bp). The efficiency of identification was notably high and considerable barcoding gaps were observed in all markers. Our results confirm the synonymies of the seasonal forms of Cacopsylla jukyungi ( = C. cinereosignata, winter form) and C. maculatili ( = C. qiuzili, summer form) previously suggested based on morphology. Some previous misidentifications (C. chinensis from China, Japan and Korea = misidentification of C. jukyungi; C. pyricola and C. pyrisuga from East Asia = misidentification of C. jukyungi and C. burckhardti, respectively; C. pyricola from Iran = misidentification of C. bidens, C. pyri and Cacopsylla sp.) are also corrected. There is no evidence for the presence of European pear psyllid species in East Asia.

This study aimed to determine the recommended dose, and to evaluate the clinical efficacy and safety, of the combination of intravenous gemcitabine, intravenous nab-paclitaxel and intraperitoneal paclitaxel in patients with pancreatic cancer and peritoneal metastasis. METHODS The frequencies of dose-limiting toxicities were evaluated, and the recommended dose was determined in phase I. The primary endpoint of the phase II analysis was overall survival rate at 1 year. Secondary endpoints were antitumour effects, symptom-relieving effects, safety and overall survival. RESULTS The recommended doses of intravenous gemcitabine, intravenous nab-paclitaxel and intraperitoneal paclitaxel were 800, 75 and 20 mg/m2 respectively. Among 46 patients enrolled in phase II, the median time to treatment failure was 6·0 (range 0-22·6) months. The response and disease control rates were 21 of 43 and 41 of 43 respectively. Ascites disappeared in 12 of 30 patients, and cytology became negative in 18 of 46. The median survival time was 14·5 months, and the 1-year overall survival rate was 61 per cent. Conversion surgery was performed in eight of 46 patients, and those who underwent resection survived significantly longer than those who were not treated surgically (median survival not reached versus 12·4 months). Grade 3-4 haematological toxicities developed in 35 of 46 patients, whereas non-haematological adverse events occurred in seven patients. CONCLUSION Adding intraperitoneal paclitaxel had clinical efficacy with acceptable tolerability.

Abstract
Background
The strategy of intravascular ultrasound (IVUS)-guided wiring for CTO PCI, that is, leading the second guidewire into the true lumen under observing by IVUS from subintimal space, is the last resort. We developed the angiography-based 3D wiring method. During establishment of the angiography-based 3D wiring method, we deduced that observation of the guidewire tip as well as the shaft named “The tip detection method” simplifies and facilitates 3D wiring under IVUS-guided wiring. Therefore, we produced New CTO IVUS which is the upgraded version of Navifocus WR IVUS by adding the pull-back transducer system. This pull-back system enables us to detect the tip as well as the shaft of the second guidewire in real time (tip detection method), which facilitates the 3D wiring technique under IVUS-guided wiring.
Objective
We evaluated the efficacy of the tip detection method during 3D wiring for CTO PCI with New CTO IVUS.
Method
We created a target pinpoint penetration model and performed the procedures using an experimental heartbeat model. The target (a tube with a lumen 0.6 mm in diameter) was placed in the distal part of a CTO 20 mm in length made of 2.5% agar. After the second guidewire (Conquest-12g) was advanced into the CTO lesion to within 5mm of the target using the angiography-based wiring, IVUS-guided wiring was performed by using Navifocus WR or New CTO IVUS each five times.
Result
The frequency of the puncture time was reduced using the new CTO IVUS compared to the Navifocus WR (1.7±0.8 vs. 28.8±23.2, p=0.17). The procedure time was significantly shorter using the new CTO IVUS compared to the Navifocus WR (103±61 vs. 459±373 seconds, p=0.04).
Conclusion
The tip detection method during 3D wiring with the new short tip IVUS with the pull-back system enables us to easily perform 3D wiring and will change the CTO PCI strategy.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Atrial fibrillation (AF) is associated with increased mortality and morbidity. Modelling the risk of thrombosis, major bleeding and total mortality are often limited by the inadequate number of independent predictors.
Purpose
We compared the predictive accuracy of the decision-support tool framework and conventional risk score in AF patients.
Methods
We used data of AF patients enrolled into the nationwide AF registry. A random forest model was implemented to predict each outcome, and its predictive power was tested by a 5-fold cross-validation.
Results
We analyzed 7,937 patients with AF (age 70±10 years, female 31%). The type of AF was paroxysmal (37%), persistent (14%), and permanent (49%). The number of antithrombotic treatments were follows: warfarin only (n=5461), antiplatelet only (n=581), both warfarin and antiplatelet (n=1471) and no antithrombotic agents (424). The mean CHA2DS2-VASc score was 2.8±1.6 and HAS-BLED score was 2.7±1.2, respectively. We selected 20 from 50 clinical parameters and compared by the area-under-curve with the CHA2DS2-VASc score for thromboses and the HAS-BLED score for major bleeding. During the 2-year follow-up, 126 patients (1.6%) had thromboses, 140 (1.8%) had major bleeding, and 195 (2.5%) died. A random forest model had a higher value of the area-under-curve for predicting thromboses compared with the CHA2DS2-VASc (0.66 vs. 0.61, P<0.05), and had a significantly higher area-under-curve for major bleeding compared with the HAS-BLED (0.67 vs. 0.61, P<0.05). The area-under-curve for the all-cause mortality was 0.77.
Conclusions
A random forest model has a higher accuracy than conventional risk scheme in predicting thromboses and major bleeding, in addition to total mortality.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Successful restoration of sinus rhythm (SR) by catheter ablation (CA) for persistent atrial fibrillation (AF) improves cardiac function, resulting in decrease of plasma brain natriuretic peptide (BNP) level. The exact significance and prognostic implications of this change have yet to be determined.
Purpose
To examine the impact of pre- and post-procedural BNP level on the clinical outcome after CA in patients with persistent AF and reduced left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF).
Methods
Out of 242 patients with LVEF <50% who underwent first-time CA for persistent AF between March 2012 and September 2018 at our institute, we enrolled 137 patients (61±10 years, 83% male) whose plasma BNP level was available both at baseline and early after CA (during 1–3 month). We evaluated the impact of the BNP levels on future AF recurrence 3 months after CA as the primary endpoint. Additional secondary endpoints included heart failure (HF) hospitalization and cardiovascular death.
Results
All patients successfully restored SR at the end of CA. Within 3 months of a blanking period (BP), improvement of LVEF (from 39±10% to 65±12%, p<0.001) and reduction of BNP levels (from 178 [107–332] pg/ml to 42.3 [21.1–78.6] pg/ml, p<0.001) were observed. During the median follow-up of 21 months after BP, the incidence of AF recurrence, HF hospitalization, and cardiovascular death was 37% (n=50), 3% (n=4), and 1% (n=1), respectively. Cox proportional hazard regression analysis after adjustment for age and gender revealed that post-procedural BNP level was a significant predictor of the AF recurrence (hazard ratio [HR] per 100-pg/ml increase, 1.13; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.02–1.25; p=0.023), but pre-procedural BNP level was not (1.02; 0.95–1.09; p=0.56). Receiver operating curve analysis determined the post-procedural BNP level of 55.5 pg/ml as the best cut-off value for predicting the AF recurrence, with area under the curve of 0.620 (95% CI, 0.534–0.702; p=0.018). The incidence of AF recurrence was significantly higher in patients with post-procedural BNP level >55.5 pg/ml (n=50) than the others (50% vs. 29%; HR, 3.99; 95% CI, 2.07–7.68; p<0.001). No patients with post-procedural BNP level ≤55.5 pg/ml experienced HF hospitalization and cardiovascular death (8% vs. 0% and 2% vs. 0%, p=0.006 and p=0.17, respectively)
Conclusions
Not pre-procedural but post-procedural BNP level early after CA predicted the future clinical outcome in patients with persistent AF and reduced LVEF. Decreased but still elevated BNP level after restoration of SR would identify the residual risk for developing unfavorable outcome.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS T2 gallbladder cancer requires lymph node dissection for curative resection, whereas simple cholecystectomy is adequate to treat T1 gallbladder cancer. Hence, this study aimed to develop an accurate scoring system to preoperatively predict pT2 in gallbladder cancer. MATERIAL AND METHODS We retrospectively assessed data from 57 patients with suspected gallbladder cancer who underwent curative resection between September 2003 and May 2017. Six with apparent invasion of adjacent organs on preoperative images were excluded. We evaluated preoperative computed tomography, magnetic resonance and endoscopic ultrasonographic images, blood biochemistry, and the maximum standard uptake value in fluorodeoxyglucose-positron emission tomography images. We analyzed whether correlations between preoperative findings and the depth of tumor invasion could predict pT2. RESULTS The pathological diagnosis was gallbladder cancer in 30 (58.8%) patients, of whom 21 (69.9%) had pT2 or worse. Multivariate analyses selected carcinoembryonic antigen and tumor diameter as independent predictors of pT2 or worse (odds ratios = 1.741 and 1.098, respectively; 95% confidence intervals = 1.004-3.020 and 1.008-1.197, respectively). A regression formula was created using carcinoembryonic antigen and tumor diameter to calculate pT2 predictive scores. The area under the receiver operating characteristics curve of the pT2 predictive score was 0.873. CONCLUSION We created a scoring system to predict pT2 in gallbladder cancer using carcinoembryonic antigen and tumor diameter. The present findings suggested that carcinoembryonic antigen is important for the preoperative evaluation of gallbladder cancer.

Abstract
The effect of a preparation of heat-killed Gram-positive lactic acid bacteria Enterococcus faecalis 2001 (EF-2001) on oral candidiasis was evaluated by two studies. An in vitro study was performed to assess the inhibitory effect on mycelial growth of Candida strains isolated from a patient with oral candidiasis, and a clinical study was done in patients with oral candidiasis. In the in vitro study, EF-2001 inhibited mycelial growth of IT-1, a Candida strain isolated from a patient with oral candidiasis, at concentrations ≥2.34×109 cells/ml. An open clinical study was performed in 13 patients with oral candidiasis. The subjects took a powder containing 7.5×1011 heat-killed EF-2001 once a day before bedtime for seven consecutive days. In 11 of the 12 patients available for analysis (92%), the oral Candida load (cfu/swab) showed a significant decrease (P=0.01079, d=-0.437). There was a 55% decrease of Candida albicans and a 93.8% decrease of Candida glabrata. The following symptoms showed significant improvement: tinnitus (P=0.048, d=-0.462), cold feeling (P=0.048, d=-0.463), and depression (P=0.019, d=-0.34). In addition, 4 out of 26 oral symptoms tended to improve. These results suggest that EF-2001 significantly decreased the oral Candida load in patients with oral candidiasis by inhibiting mycelial growth and that EF-2001 is an effective treatment for oral candidiasis.

Abstract
Although they are known to share pathophysiological processes, the relationship between periodontitis and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is not fully understood. The aim of the present study was to test the hypothesis that periodontitis is associated with a greater risk of development of COPD, when smoking is taken into account. The analysis in a 5-y follow-up population-based cohort study was based on 900 community-dwelling Japanese adults (age: 68.8 ± 6.3 [mean ± SD], 46.0% male) without COPD aged 60 or older with at least 1 tooth. Participants were classified into 3 categories according to baseline periodontitis severity (no/mild, moderate, and severe). COPD was spirometrically determined by a fixed ratio of <0.7 for forced expiratory volume in 1 s (FEV1)/forced vital capacity (FVC) and by FEV1/FVC below the lower limit of normal. Poisson regression was used to calculate the relative risk (RR) of developing COPD according to the severity of periodontitis. The population attributable fraction (PAF) was also calculated. During follow-up, 22 (2.4%) subjects developed COPD. Compared with no/mild periodontitis subjects, a significantly increased risk of COPD occurred among severe periodontitis subjects (RR = 3.55; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.18 to 10.67), but no significant differences were observed between the no/mild and moderate categories (RR = 1.48; 95% CI, 0.56 to 3.90). After adjustment for potential confounders, including smoking intensity, the relationship between severe periodontitis and risk of COPD remained significant (RR = 3.51; 95% CI, 1.15 to 10.74). Likewise, there was a positive association of periodontitis severity with risk of COPD ( P for trend = 0.043). The PAF for COPD due to periodontitis was 22.6%. These data highlight the potential importance of periodontitis as a risk factor for COPD.

Abstract
The bioactivity of anodized near-β TiNbSn alloy with low Young's modulus prepared in sulfuric acid electrolytes was examined to explore the osseointegration mechanism with a focus on the role of anodic oxide. Hydroxyapatite (HA) precipitated on the surface of anodic oxide following immersion in Hank's solution, and precipitation accelerated with increase in the sulfuric acid concentration of the electrolyte. HA is formed on the surface of as-anodized oxide without subsequent annealing or hot water (HW) treatment. This outcome differs from that of a previous study using anodized TiNbSn alloy prepared in acetic acid electrolytes requiring for subsequent HW treatment. It was found that the oxide anodized in sulfuric acid electrolyte contains a large amount of internal pores and is highly crystallized thick TiO2, whereas the same prepared in the acetic acid electrolyte is low crystalline thin TiO2 containing a small amount of pores. The present anodized TiNbSn alloy is preferred for maintaining the low Young's modulus of the alloy and eliminating the subsequent treatment to increase the Young's modulus. A model to rationalize the bioactivity of the present anodic oxide is proposed based on the series of studies. It is concluded that the sulfuric acid electrolyte is favorable for both HA formation and low Young's modulus, and the bioactivity is attributed to the anodic TiO2 that facilitates incorporation of bone ingredients.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
The omission of axillary dissection for positive sentinel-node breast cancer is considered the standard treatment for patients who undergo breast conserving surgery and radiation therapy, according to the results of ACOSOG-Z0011 and AMAROS trials. On the other hand, some surgeons still think that the surgical stress of axillary dissection is minimal, and dissection is permitted. Furthermore, Z0011 contains several problems, such as insufficient number of entry cases and lack of radiation field unity. Thus, we planned a prospective trial to confirm the safety of omitting axillary dissection in patients with breast cancer and positive sentinel nodes.
Trial design
This is a single arm, confirmation study of three medical centers. Prior to surgery, informed consent is obtained, and patients are registered primarily. After surgery, patients with 1 to 2 positive sentinel nodes, for whom axillary dissection was omitted, are finally included in this trial at final registration.
Eligibility criteria
Patients with histologically-diagnosed breast cancer, Tis–2, N0 based on a core needle biopsy, will be included in this trial. Eligible patients must be between 20 and 80 years of age, with a performance status of 0–2 and adequate organ function. They must not have undergone any prior operation, radiation therapy, chemotherapy, endocrine therapy, or immunotherapy.
Specific aims
The primary endpoint is 5-year (y) axillary recurrence rate. Secondary endpoints are 5-y overall survival, 5-y recurrence-free survival, 5-y local recurrence-free survival, the rate of upper-limb lymphedema, quality of life, and comparison of axillary recurrence rates between patients with two or more dissected nodes and those with only one positive node.
Statistical methods
The expected rate of axillary recurrence is 2.0%, and non-inferiority is defined as an axillary recurrence lesser than or equal to 5% in the axillary radiotherapy group. The sample size was calculated with a study power of 80% and type I error of 10% (two-sided). The required number of patients is estimated to be 189.
Present and target accrual
Patient accrual from the three medical centers was initiated in July 2016. We plan to enroll a total of 189 patients at final registration in this trial.

Abstract
To examine whether TRPM7, a member of the melastatin family of transient receptor potential channels, is a physiological pathway for Mg2+ entry in mammalian cells, we studied the effect of TRPM7 regulators on cytoplasmic free Mg2+ concentration ([Mg2+]i) of rat ventricular myocytes. Acutely isolated single cells were AM-loaded with the fluorescent indicator furaptra, and [Mg2+]i was estimated at 25 °C. After [Mg2+]i was lowered by soaking the cells with a high-K+ and Mg2+-Ca2+-free solution, [Mg2+]i was recovered by extracellular perfusion of Ca2+-free Tyrode's solution that contained 1 mM Mg2+. The initial rate of increase in [Mg2+]i was analyzed as the Mg2+ influx rate. The Mg2+ influx rate was increased by the TRPM7 activator, naltriben (2-50 μM), in a concentration-dependent manner with a half maximal effective concentration (EC50) of 24 μM. This EC50 value is similar to that reported for the activation of recombinant TRPM7 overexpressed in HEK293 cells. Naltriben (50 μM) caused little change in basal [Mg2+]i (~ 0.9 mM) in Ca2+-free Tyrode's solution, but significantly raised [Mg2+]i to 1.31 ± 0.03 mM in 94 min after the removal of extracellular Na+. Re-introduction of extracellular Na+ lowered [Mg2+]i back to the basal level even in the presence of naltriben. Application of 10 μM NS8593, an inhibitor of TRPM7, significantly lowered [Mg2+]i to 0.72 ± 0.03 mM in 50-60 min independent of extracellular Na+. The results suggest that Mg2+ entry through TRPM7 significantly contributes to physiological Mg2+ homeostasis in mammalian heart cells.

Abstract
Aims The aim of this study was to report the mid-term clinical outcome of cemented unlinked J-alumina
ceramic elbow (JACE) arthroplasties when used in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Patients and Methods We retrospectively reviewed 87 elbows, in 75 patients with RA, which was replaced using a
cemented JACE total elbow arthroplasty (TEA) between August 2003 and December 2012, with a follow-up
of 96%. There were 72 women and three men, with a mean age of 62 years (35 to 79). The mean
follow-up was nine years (2 to 14). The clinical condition of each elbow before and after surgery
was assessed using the Mayo Elbow Performance Index (MEPI, 0 to 100 points). Radiographic loosening
was defined as a progressive radiolucent line of >1 mm that was completely circumferential
around the prosthesis. Results The mean MEPI scores significantly improved from 40 (10 to 75) points preoperatively to 95 (30 to
100) points at final follow-up (p < 0.0001). Complications were noted in ten elbows
(ten patients; 11%). Two had an intraoperative humeral fracture which was treated by fixation and
united. One had a postoperative fracture of the olecranon which united with conservative treatment
and one had a radial neuropathy which resolved. Further surgery was required for one with a
dislocation, three with an ulnar neuropathy and one with a postoperative humeral fracture. Revision
with removal of the components was performed in one elbow due to deep infection. There was no
radiographic evidence of loosening around the components.With any revision surgery or revision with
implant removal as the endpoint, the rates of survival up to 14 years were 93% (95% confidence
interval (CI), 83.9 to 96.6) and 99% (95% CI 91.9 to 99.8), respectively, as determined by
Kaplan-Meier analysis. Conclusion With the appropriate indications, the mid-term clinical performance of the cemented JACE TEA is
reliable and comparable to other established TEAs in the management of the elbow in patients with
RA. Cite this article: Bone Joint J 2018;100-B:1066–73.

Abstract
AIM To determine whether Porphyromonas endodontalis can reactivate latent Epstein-Barr virus (EBV). METHODOLOGY The concentrations of short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs) in P. endodontalis culture supernatants were determined using high-performance liquid chromatography. A promoter region of BamHI fragment Z leftward open reading frame 1 (BZLF-1), which is a transcription factor that controls the EBV lytic cycle, was cloned into luciferase expression vectors. Then, the luciferase assay was performed using P. endodontalis culture supernatants. Histone acetylation using Daudi cells treated with P. endodontalis culture supernatants was examined using Western blotting. BZLF-1 mRNA and BamHI fragment Z EB replication activator (ZEBRA) protein were also detected quantitatively using real-time polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and Western blotting. Surgically removed periapical granulomas were examined to detect P. endodontalis, EBV DNA, and BZLF-1 mRNA expression using quantitative real-time PCR. Statistical analysis using Steel tests was performed. RESULTS The concentrations of n-butyric acid in P. endodontalis culture supernatants were significantly higher than those of other SCFAs (P = 0.0173). Using B-95-8-221 Luc cells treated with P. endodontalis culture supernatants, the luciferase assay demonstrated that P. endodontalis induced BZLF-1 expression. Hyperacetylation of histones was also observed with the culture supernatants. BZLF-1 mRNA and ZEBRA protein were expressed by Daudi cells in a dose-dependent manner after the treatment with P. endodontalis culture supernatants. P. endodontalis and BZLF-1 in periapical granulomas were also detected. The expression levels of BZLF-1 mRNA were similar to the numbers of P. endodontalis cells in each specimen. CONCLUSIONS n-butyric acid produced by P. endodontalis reactivated latent EBV.

Abstract
In order to investigate the characteristics of anion exchange resins that may safely and effectively bind dietary phosphate in digestive tract, phosphate binding experiments were carried out in vitro and in vivo with normal rats by comparing anion exchange resins, PAA-B (which has the same chemical structure as Sevelamer® HCl) and Dowe 1x8, with CaCO3. In in vitro phosphate binding experiments, PAA-B bound 32.3% less phosphate than CaCO3 at pH 7. In the rat dietary phosphorus excretion experiments, PAA-B, Dowex 1x8, and CaCO3 increased fecal phosphorus excretion by 62.7, 32.3, and 84.0%, respectively. Famotidine significantly reduced the phosphate binding of CaCO3. When phosphate solution was orally adiministered, PAA-B depressed serum phosphorus augmentations immediately after administration and thereafter effectively depressed serum iPTH. This suggests that anion exchange resins with most primary and secondary amino type anion exchange groups, have bright prospects in the treatment of hyperphosphatemia.

Abstract
Asthma is a complex respiratory disorder characterized by marked heterogeneity in individual patient disease triggers and response to therapy. Several asthma phenotypes have now been identified, each defined by a unique interaction between genetic and environmental factors, including inflammatory, clinical and trigger-related phenotypes. Endotypes further describe the functional or pathophysiologic mechanisms underlying the patient's disease. type 2-driven asthma is an emerging nomenclature for a common subtype of asthma and is characterized by the release of signature cytokines IL-4, IL-5 and IL-13 from cells of both the innate and adaptive immune systems. A number of well-recognized biomarkers have been linked to mechanisms involved in type 2 airway inflammation, including fractional exhaled nitric oxide, serum IgE, periostin, and blood and sputum eosinophils. These type 2 cytokines are targets for pharmaceutical intervention, and a number of therapeutic options are under clinical investigation for the management of patients with uncontrolled severe asthma. Anticipating and understanding the heterogeneity of asthma and subsequent improved characterization of different phenotypes and endotypes must guide the selection of treatment to meet individual patients' needs.
