Abstract
BACKGROUND Stevens-Johnson syndrome (SJS) and toxic epidermal necrolysis (TEN) are life-threatening, severe mucocutaneous adverse reactions. Severity prediction at early onset is urgently required for treatment. However, previous prediction scores have been based on data of blood tests. OBJECTIVE This study aimed to present a novel score that predicts mortality in patients with SJS/TEN in the early stages based on only clinical information. METHODS We retrospectively evaluated 382 patients with SJS/TEN in a development study. A clinical risk score for TEN (CRISTEN) was created according to the association of potential risk factors with death. We calculated the sum of these risk factors using CRISTEN, and this was validated in a multinational survey of 416 patients and was compared with previous scoring systems. RESULTS The significant risk factors for death in SJS/TEN comprised 10 items, including patients' age of ≥65 years, ≥10% body surface area involvement, the use of antibiotics as culprit drugs, the use of systemic corticosteroid therapy before the onset, and mucosal damage affecting the ocular, buccal, and genital mucosa. Renal impairment, diabetes, cardiovascular disease, malignant neoplasm, and bacterial infection were included as underlying diseases. The CRISTEN model showed good discrimination (area under the curve [AUC] = 0.884) and calibration. In the validation study, the AUC was 0.827, which was statistically comparable to those of previous systems. CONCLUSION A scoring system based on only clinical information was developed to predict mortality in SJS/TEN and was validated in an independent multinational study. CRISTEN may predict individual survival probabilities and direct the management and therapy of patients with SJS/TEN.

Abstract
Background Hydrochlorothiazide (HCT), a widely used hypertensive drug, has photocarcinogenic potential, leading to concerns about the development of nonmelanoma skin cancers (SCs) after intake. Despite substantial numbers of observational studies, the results remain inconsistent especially among Asian countries. Objective To assess the incidence of nonmelanoma SCs in hypertensive Japanese HCT users compared with nonusers. Methods A population-based, cohort nested, propensity score-matched study was conducted using the Shizuoka Kokuho database. All participants were patients aged ≥60 years. Hazard ratios for SC incidence were calculated in the matched cohorts using the propensity scores of potential confounders, sex, age category, comorbidities, and administration of methotrexate, cyclosporin, and statins. Results The risk of SC was higher in HCT users than in nonusers (hazard ratio, 1.58; 95% confidence interval, 1.04-2.40), with preferential sun-exposed location and a tendency to develop squamous cell carcinoma, but not basal cell carcinoma or Bowen disease. Limitations No additional information was available from other than medical records. The data were confined to a Japanese population. Conclusion HCT use increases the risk of SC in Japanese patients with hypertension and a dark skin type, highlighting the increased risk of SC among HCT users in the aging society worldwide.

Abstract
Background Evidence of factors associated with Stevens-Johnson syndrome (SJS) and toxic epidermal necrolysis (TEN) from population-based studies is scarce. Objective We aimed to identify the incidence, risk factors, and drugs that trigger the development of SJS/TEN in the general population. Methods A regional, population-based, longitudinal cohort with 2,398,393 Japanese individuals was analyzed using the Shizuoka Kokuho Database from 2012 to 2020. Results Among 1,909,570 individuals, 223 (0.01%, 2.3 cases/100,000 person-years) patients were diagnosed with SJS/TEN during the observational period of a maximum of 7.5 years. In a multivariable analysis, the risks of SJS/TEN were an older age, and the presence of type 2 diabetes, peripheral vascular disease, and systemic autoimmune diseases. The administration of drugs, such as immune checkpoint inhibitors, insulin, and type 2 diabetes agents, triggered the onset of SJS/TEN. Limitations The results may apply only to the Japanese population. Conclusion In this cohort population from a database representing the general population, the risks of developing SJS/TEN were old age and a history of type 2 diabetes, peripheral vascular disease, and systemic autoimmune disease. Furthermore, in addition to previously reported drugs, the administration of immune checkpoint inhibitors, insulin, and type 2 diabetes agents, may trigger the development of SJS/TEN.

Abstract
UNLABELLED This population-based cohort study with a 3-year follow-up revealed that the annual incidence rates of vertebral fracture (VF) and severe VF (sVF) were 5.9%/year and 1.7%/year, respectively. The presence of mild VF at the baseline was a significant risk factor for incident sVF in participants without prevalent sVF. INTRODUCTION This study aimed to estimate the incidence of morphometric vertebral fracture (VF) and severe VF (sVF) in men and women and clarify whether the presence of a mild VF (mVF) increases the risk of incident sVF. METHODS Data from the population-based cohort study, entitled the Research on Osteoarthritis/Osteoporosis Against Disability (ROAD) study, were analyzed. In total, 1190 participants aged ≥ 40 years (mean age, 65.0 ± 11.2) years completed whole-spine lateral radiography both at the third (2012-2013, baseline) and fourth surveys performed 3 years later (2015-2016, follow-up). VF was defined using Genant's semi-quantitative (SQ) method: VF as SQ ≥ 1, mVF as SQ = 1, and sVF as SQ ≥ 2. Cumulative incidence of VF and sVF was estimated. Multivariate logistic regression analyses were performed to evaluate risk factors for incident sVF. RESULTS The baseline prevalence of mVF and sVF were 16.8% and 6.0%, respectively. The annual incidence rates of VF and sVF were 5.9%/year and 1.7%/year, respectively. The annual incidence rates of sVF in participants without prevalent VF, with prevalent mVF, and with prevalent sVF were 0.6%/year, 3.8%/year, and 11.7%/year (p < 0.001), respectively. Multivariate logistic regression analyses in participants without prevalent sVF showed that the adjusted odds ratios for incident sVF were 4.12 [95% confident interval 1.85-9.16] and 4.53 [1.49-13.77] if the number of prevalent mVF at the baseline was 1 and ≥ 2, respectively. CONCLUSIONS The annual incidence rates of VF and sVF were 5.9%/year and 1.7%/year, respectively. The presence of prevalent mVF was an independent risk factor for incident sVF.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Approximately 7-20% of patients with herpes zoster (HZ) develop zoster-associated pain (ZAP). ZAP not only impairs quality of life and psychological well-being, but also can reduce work effectiveness, which has negative economic effects. Reports of ZAP risk factors are inconsistent. OBJECTIVE To confirm risk factors for the development of severe ZAP in HZ patients in Japan using a large-scale database, the Shizuoka Kokuho Database. METHODS A population-based cohort study using the Shizuoka Kokuho Database was conducted. Of 792,647 patients, 7491 (0.95%) experienced "severe ZAP" (as defined in this study). We developed a ZAP risk prediction scoring system by identifying risk factors using logistic regression analysis of several candidate risk factors for severe ZAP: age, sex, seasonality, and presence of comorbidities (using the Charlson comorbidity index), excluding HIV/AIDS. RESULTS We identified peripheral vascular disease and the onset from October to December as novel risk factors for severe ZAP, in addition to the previously reported risk factors of age and comorbidities (cerebral vascular disease, chronic pulmonary disease, rheumatic disease, peptic ulcer, liver disease, diabetes, and malignant neoplasms with/without metastasis). In contrast, dementia was found to reduce ZAP risk. We developed a susceptibility index to predict the risk of ZAP. CONCLUSION We newly demonstrated that peripheral vascular disease and the onset from October to December are ZAP risk factors. Our comorbidity findings support previous observations. The susceptibility index proposed here provides a new approach to the prevention of ZAP using early intervention for high-risk patients.

Abstract
Immunoglobulin (Ig)A vasculitis/nephropathy is a systemic immune complex‐mediated vasculitis. Although severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS‐CoV‐2) vaccination is widely recommended in individuals without specific allergy to the vaccine components, it is arguable whether vaccination is advisable for patients with IgA vasculitis or for predisposed individuals. We and others have presented cases of IgA vasculitis occurring after SARS‐CoV‐2 vaccination. In total, these 19 cases, including ours, involved predominantly female patients, and half of them were suffering from de novo vasculitis onset. The most frequent manifestation was gross hematuria (89.5%) while skin lesions were relatively infrequent, occurring in only five cases (26.3%), of which three (15.8%) were confirmed to be IgA vasculitis. Taken together, these cases suggest that SARS‐CoV‐2 vaccination might be a trigger for development/deterioration of IgA vasculitis/nephropathy.

Abstract
Drug-induced hypersensitivity syndrome/drug reaction with eosinophilia and systemic symptoms is a life-threatening severe cutaneous adverse reaction, characterized by multiple organ involvement and reactivation of herpes viruses. Although the mainstay of treatment is a high dosage of corticosteroids delivered by pulse therapy or conventional oral administration, it remains debatable which mode is better. To clarify this issue, we reviewed publications in Japan of 299 cases of drug-induced hypersensitivity syndrome/drug reaction with eosinophilia and systemic symptoms treated with corticosteroids, to evaluate safety concerns with regards to these two modes of treatment. As a result, we found that patients treated with pulse therapy more frequently suffered cytomegalovirus reactivation, persistency, and high mortality but less frequently experienced herpesvirus 6 reactivation or type 1 diabetes compared with those undergoing conventional treatment, suggesting that the administration mode may differentially modulate inflammatory responses toward distinct consequences. This is the first statistical analysis revealing that steroid pulse therapy frequently resulted in severe sequelae with high mortality. In terms of the risk of serious consequences, we consider that steroid pulse therapy should be eschewed for the treatment of drug-induced hypersensitivity syndrome/drug reaction with eosinophilia and systemic symptoms.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Pruritus is an important symptom frequently accompanying various inflammatory skin conditions and some recent data indicated that it may be associated with autoimmune connective tissue diseases. The aim of this study was to assess the frequency and clinical presentation of itch in CLE. METHODS A multinational, prospective, cross-sectional study was performed to assess the prevalence, intensity and clinical characteristic of pruritus in various subtypes of CLE. A total of 153 patients with active CLE lesions were included. Their age ranged between 17 and 82 years (mean 49.8 ± 15.4 years), and 115 patients (75.2%) were women. The disease activity and damage were assessed according to the Cutaneous Lupus Erythematosus Disease Area and Severity Index (CLASI). Pruritus severity was assessed with Numeric Rating Scale (NRS) and the 12-Item Pruritus Severity Scale. Dermatology Life Quality Index and EQ-5D questionnaire were used to measure quality of life. RESULTS Pruritus was present in 116 (76.8%) of patients of whom half had NRS scoring equal or above 4 points indicating moderate or severe pruritus. Most commonly itch was localized on the scalp, face (excluding ears and nose) and arms (40.5%, 36.2%, 31.9%, respectively). Sensations connected with pruritus were most frequently described as burning, tingling and like ants crawling feeling, but 31.9% patients described it as "pure itch". More than half of patients reported that pruritus was present every day, and it was most frequent during the evenings. The pruritus scoring and the CLASI activity score were significantly correlated (r = 0.42, p = 0.0001), while no correlation was found with the CLASI damage score (p = 0.16). Both the maximum and average itch intensity were correlated with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) activity measured with the Systemic Lupus Erythematosus Disease Activity Index. CONCLUSIONS Pruritus is a common, but frequently overlooked symptom of CLE. Its intensity correlates with the activity of CLE, but not with the skin damage. In more than a half of patients it occurs on a daily basis. The correlation between the intensity of pruritus and the activity of the skin lesions and the systemic involvement indicate that pruritus could be an individual indicator of both SLE and CLE activity.

Abstract
REBa2Cu3O7-δ (REBCO, RE: rare earth, such as Y and Gd) compounds have been extensively studied as a superconducting layer in coated conductors. Although ErBCO potentially has better superconducting properties than YBCO and GdBCO, little research has been made on it, especially in chemical solution deposition (CSD). In this work, ErBCO films were deposited on IBAD (ion-beam-assisted-deposition) substrates by CSD with low-fluorine solutions. The crystallization process was optimized to achieve the highest self-field critical current density (Jc) at 77 K. Commonly, for the investigation of a CSD process involving numerous process factors, one factor is changed keeping the others constant, requiring much time and cost. For more efficient investigation, this study adopted a novel design-of-experiment technique, definitive screening design (DSD), for the first time in CSD process. Two different types of solutions containing Er-propionate or Er-acetate were used to make two types of samples, Er-P and Er-A, respectively. Within the investigated range, we found that crystallization temperature, dew point, and oxygen partial pressure play a key role in Er-P, while the former two factors are significant for Er-A. DSD revealed these significant factors among six process factors with only 14 trials. Moreover, the DSD approach allowed us to create models that predict Jc accurately. These models revealed the optimum conditions giving the highest Jc values of 3.6 MA/cm2 for Er-P and 3.0 MA/cm2 for Er-A. These results indicate that DSD is an attractive approach to optimize CSD process.

Abstract
Ophthalmic quinolone preparations are widely used for the treatment of eye diseases; however, there are only a few reported cases of immediate hypersensitivity due to such medications. Here, we present a case of immediate hypersensitivity induced by an ophthalmic administration of quinolones in a 20-year-old female with bacterial conjunctivitis. The results of skin prick and basophil activation tests suggest that it involved a type Ib reaction associated with Mas-related G-protein coupled receptor X2. The present case cautions us to be aware of quinolone immediate hypersensitivity caused by topical ophthalmic preparations, which can easily be overlooked, because it may predict severe hypersensitivity reactions to systemic administration.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To clarify the genetic mechanisms underlying intervertebral disc degeneration (IDD), we examined the associations between single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) and indicated as coefficient of interaction term (IDD) in a general population in Japan. METHODS This was a cross-sectional study. In 1,605 participants, C2-3 to L5/S1 in the total spine magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) were evaluated using the Pfirrmann's scoring system. Disc scores of 4 and 5 were defined as IDD. Eight SNPs in eight genes associated with IDD were examined at each disc level, considering the non-genetic risk factors of age, sex, and body mass index (BMI). RESULTS The highest odds ratio was found for rs9406328 in the THBS2 gene at disc level T12-L1 (OR 1.27, 95%CI 1.05 to 1.53), and this association was strengthened after adjustment for age using logistic regression (OR 1.37, 95%CI 1.12 to 1.67). Among participants aged <50 years and 50-59, the average IDD score in those with 2 risk alleles of rs9406328 was markedly higher than in those with 0 or 1 risk allele, and the difference is much wider than the elderly participants. It indicates the genetic effect of rs9406328 is stronger in the younger age groups. Finally, multiple linear regression analyses of the association between rs9406328 and IDD, adjusted for age, sex, and BMI at each disc level, showed a statistical interaction between age and the number of risk alleles at C7-T1, T3-4 and T4-T5 as well as T12-L1. CONCLUSION CONCLUSION: The association between rs9406328 in THBS2 and IDD was replicated. The contributions of genetic and environmental factors to IDD differed by disc level.

Abstract
Aims The aim of this study was to investigate the clinical and radiographic outcomes of microendoscopic laminotomy in patients with lumbar stenosis and concurrent degenerative spondylolisthesis (DS), and to determine the effect of this procedure on spinal stability. Patients and Methods A total of 304 consecutive patients with single-level lumbar DS with concomitant stenosis underwent microendoscopic laminotomy without fusion between January 2004 and December 2010. Patients were divided into two groups, those with and without advanced DS based on the degree of spondylolisthesis and dynamic instability. A total of 242 patients met the inclusion criteria. There were 101 men and 141 women. Their mean age was 68.1 years (46 to 85). Outcome was assessed using the Japanese Orthopaedic Association and Roland Morris Disability Questionnaire scores, a visual analogue score for pain and the Short Form Health-36 score. The radiographic outcome was assessed by measuring the slip and the disc height. The clinical and radiographic parameters were evaluated at a mean follow-up of 4.6 years (3 to 7.5). Results There were no significant differences in the preoperative measurements between the group and no significant differences between the clinical parameters at the final follow-up. The mean percentage slip was 17.1% preoperatively and 17.7% at the final follow-up (p = 0.35). Progressive instability was noted in 13 patients (8.2%) with DS and 6 patients (7.0%) with advanced DS, respectively (p = 0.81). There was radiological evidence of restabilization of the spine in 30 patients (35%) with preoperative instability. The success rate of microendoscopic laminotomy was good/excellent in 166 (69%), fair in 49 (20%) and poor in 27 patients (11%) in both groups. Conclusion Microendoscopic laminotomy is an effective form of surgical treatment for patients with DS and stenosis. Preservation of the stabilizing structures using this technique prevents postoperative instability. Cite this article: Bone Joint J 2018;100-B:499-506.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Dapsone (4,4'-diaminodiphenylsulfone) has been widely used for the treatment of infections such as leprosy. Dapsone hypersensitivity syndrome (DHS) is a major side effect, developing in 0.5-3.6% of patients treated with dapsone, and its mortality rate is ∼10%. Recently, human leukocyte antigen (HLA)-B*13:01 was identified as a marker of susceptibility to DHS. OBJECTIVES To investigate why HLA-B*13:01 is responsible for DHS from a structural point of view. METHODS First, we used homology modeling to derive the three-dimensional structures of HLA-B*13:01 (associated with DHS) and HLA-B*13:02 (not so associated despite strong sequence identity [99%] with HLA-B*13:01). Next, we used molecular docking, molecular dynamic simulations, and the molecular mechanics Poisson-Boltzman surface area method, to investigate the interactions of dapsone with HLA-B*13:01 and 13:02. RESULTS We found a crucial structural difference between HLA-B*13:01 and 13:02 in the F-pocket of the antigen-binding site. As Trp95 in the α-domain of HLA-B*13:02 is replaced with the less bulky Ile95 in HLA-B*13:01, we found an additional well-defined sub-pocket within the antigen-binding site of HLA-B*13:01. All three representative docking poses of dapsone against the antigen-binding site of HLA-B*13:01 used this unique sub-pocket, indicating its suitability for binding dapsone. However, HLA-B*13:02 does not seem to possess a binding pocket suitable for binding dapsone. Finally, a binding free energy calculation combined with a molecular dynamics simulation and the molecular mechanics Poisson-Boltzman surface area method indicated that the binding affinity of dapsone for HLA-B*13:01 would be much greater than that for HLA-B*13:02. CONCLUSIONS Our computational results suggest that dapsone would fit within the structure of the antigen-recognition site of HLA-B*13:01. This may change the self-peptides that bind to HLA-B*13:01, explaining why HLA-B*13:01 is a marker of DHS susceptibility.

Abstract
Videogame play (VGP) has been associated with numerous preferred and non-preferred effects. However, the effects of VGP on the development of microstructural properties in children, particularly those associated with negative psychological consequences of VGP, have not been identified to date. The purpose of this study was to investigate this issue through cross-sectional and longitudinal prospective analyses. In the present study of humans, we used the diffusion tensor imaging mean diffusivity (MD) measurement to measure microstructural properties and examined cross-sectional correlations with the amount of VGP in 114 boys and 126 girls. We also assessed correlations between the amount of VGP and longitudinal changes in MD that developed after 3.0±0.3 (s.d.) years in 95 boys and 94 girls. After correcting for confounding factors, we found that the amount of VGP was associated with increased MD in the left middle, inferior and orbital frontal cortex; left pallidum; left putamen; left hippocampus; left caudate; right putamen; right insula; and thalamus in both cross-sectional and longitudinal analyses. Regardless of intelligence quotient type, higher MD in the areas of the left thalamus, left hippocampus, left putamen, left insula and left Heschl gyrus was associated with lower intelligence. We also confirmed an association between the amount of VGP and decreased verbal intelligence in both cross-sectional and longitudinal analyses. In conclusion, increased VGP is directly or indirectly associated with delayed development of the microstructure in extensive brain regions and verbal intelligence.

Abstract
Five comminuted and displaced fractures of the distal metaphysis of the radius were treated by a technique of minimally invasive plate osteosynthesis (MIPO) with the aim of minimizing soft tissue damage and devascularization of the fracture fragments. This technique used the small AO T-shaped locking compression plate (AO LCP T-plate) and left the pronator quadratus intact. Radial inclination, palmar tilt, and ulnar variance were restored without loss of reduction in all five cases and the fractures healed at an average of 10 weeks, with good to excellent clinical outcomes.

Abstract
Through various in situ analyses, we have revealed the structural changes that occur during the reversible melting-solidification process of layered alkylsiloxanes (CnLSiloxanes) with carbon numbers (n) of 18 and 16. In situ high-resolution solid-state (13)C nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) analysis at controlled temperatures indicates drastic conformational changes of the long alkyl chains during the melting-solidification process. A (13)C NMR signal at 33 ppm, which shows the highest intensity at room temperature (RT), is assigned to an inner methylene group with an all-trans conformation. As the temperature increases, the 33-ppm signal intensity decreases while the signal intensity at 30.5 ppm simultaneously increases. The 30.5 ppm signal is assigned to an inner methylene group with a trans-gauche conformation. Subsequently, upon cooling, the signal at 33 ppm recovers, even after CnLSiloxanes have melted. In situ X-ray diffraction measurements at controlled temperatures reveal that the ordered arrangement of the long alkyl chains becomes disordered with elevating temperatures and reordered upon cooling to RT. In situ high-resolution solid-state (29)Si NMR analysis shows that the melting-solidification process progresses without any structural change in siloxane sheets of the CnLSiloxanes. Thus, the in situ analyses show that disordering of the long alkyl chains causes the CnLSiloxanes to melt. Because the majority of long alkyl chains are packed again in the ordered arrangement with the all-trans conformation upon cooling, the CnLSiloxanes are reversibly solidified and the CnLSiloxane structure is recovered.
