Abstract
Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is associated with an increased risk of psychological distress as well as enhanced responses to psychosocial stress. Recently, it was hypothesized that PCOS patients may be at high risk of novel COVID-19 infections and worse clinical presentations during such infections. Here, we evaluated the effects of PCOS on stress responses to bacterial and viral mimetics using dihydrotestosterone-induced PCOS model rats. Lipopolysaccharide (LPS; a bacterial mimetic) or polyinosinic-polycytidylic acid (Poly-IC; a viral mimetic) was injected into PCOS model rats (PCOS) and non-PCOS rats (control), and the rats' stress responses were evaluated. In the PCOS group, the rats' anorectic and febrile responses to LPS injection were enhanced, whereas their anorectic and febrile responses to Poly-IC injection were unaltered. The PCOS group also exhibited greater changes in peripheral cytokine levels in response to LPS, but not Poly-IC. On the contrary, after the injection of Poly-IC depressed locomotor activity was more evident in the PCOS group, whereas no such changes were observed after LPS injection. These findings indicate that although the stress responses of PCOS model rats to infection may be enhanced, the patterns of change in stress responses and their underlying mechanisms may differ between bacterial and viral infections.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE This study aimed to quantitatively investigate airborne particle load in the operating room during endoscopic or microscopic epitympanectomy or mastoidectomy. METHOD In the transcanal endoscopic ear surgery group, drilling was performed underwater. A particle counter was used to measure the particle load before, during and after drilling during transcanal endoscopic ear surgery or microscopic ear surgery. The device counted the numbers of airborne particles of 0.3, 0.5 or 1.0 μm in diameter. RESULTS The particle load during drilling was significantly higher in the microscopic ear surgery group (n = 5) than in the transcanal endoscopic ear surgery group (n = 11) for all particle sizes (p < 0.01). In the transcanal endoscopic ear surgery group, no significant differences among the particle load observed before, during and after drilling were seen for any of the particle sizes. CONCLUSION Bone dissection carries a lower risk of airborne infection if it is performed using the endoscopic underwater drilling technique.

Abstract
The aim of this study was to conduct a systematic review and meta-analysis of the efficacy of fascial closure using antimicrobial-sutures specifically for the prevention of surgical site infections (SSIs) in gastrointestinal surgery, as part of the revision of the SSI prevention guidelines of the Japanese Society of Surgical Infectious Diseases (JSSI). We searched CENTRAL, PubMed and ICHUSHI-Web in May 2023, and included randomized controlled trials (RCTs) comparing antimicrobial-coated and non-coated sutures for fascial closure in gastrointestinal surgery (PROSPERO No. CRD42023430377). Three authors independently screened the RCTs. We assessed the risk of bias and the GRADE criteria for the extracted data. The primary outcome was incisional SSI and the secondary outcomes were abdominal wall dehiscence and the length of postoperative hospital stay. This study was supported partially by the JSSI. A total of 10 RCTs and 5396 patients were included. The use of antimicrobial-coated sutures significantly lowered the risk of incisional SSIs compared with non-coated suture (risk ratio: 0.79, 95% confidence intervals: 0.64-0.98). In subgroup analyses, antimicrobial-coated sutures reduced the risk of SSIs for open surgeries, and when monofilament sutures were used. Antimicrobial-coated sutures did not reduce the incidence of abdominal wall dehiscence and the length of hospital stay compared with non-coated sutures. The certainty of the evidence was rated as moderate according to the GRADE criteria, because of risk of bias. In conclusion, the use of antimicrobial-coated sutures for fascial closure in gastrointestinal surgery is associated with a significantly lower risk of SSI than non-coated sutures.

Abstract
AIM Medroxyprogesterone acetate (MPA) is one of the treatments of atypical endometrial hyperplasia (AEH) and endometrial cancer (EC) to preserve the fertility. Efficacy of MPA therapy and fertility and obstetric outcomes after remission were evaluated in EC or AEH patients. METHODS Among patients diagnosed with EC or AEH at Tokushima University Hospital between January 2002 and October 2020, we retrospectively analyzed patients, ages range from 26 to 40, who underwent conservative management using MPA (400-600 mg/day). RESULTS In total, 19 patients underwent MPA therapy. The 18 (94%) patients achieved complete response (CR), and 1 (5%) patient achieved partial response (PR). Relapse occurred in 6 (32%) patients who had achieved CR. Of the patients who relapsed, 4 patients resumed MPA therapy and were in remission. Among 19 patients, 13 patients attempted pregnancy after CR. All of them underwent ovulation induction or assisted reproductive technology. As a result, 20 pregnancies in 10 (77%) patients and 12 live births in 9 (69%) patients were achieved. Rate of spontaneous abortion was 35% (7/20). CONCLUSIONS MPA therapy can produce a high remission rate, and be considered an effective treatment for patients who wish fertility preservation. Around 70% patients who attempt to pregnancy can have at least one baby by infertility treatments. Because recurrence rate after MPA therapy is high, it may be desirable to aim for early pregnancy by active intervention.

Abstract
While the effects of progesterone on body weight and appetite in pre-menopausal conditions have been well elucidated, its effects in post-menopausal conditions have not been clarified. On the contrary, the effects of estrogen on body weight and appetite in post-menopausal conditions have been well established. In this study, the effects of progesterone treatment on body weight, appetite, and fat mass in ovariectomized rats were evaluated. In addition, the central and/or peripheral levels of oxytocin (OT), leptin, and their receptors, which are potent anorectic factors, were examined. Female rats were ovariectomized and divided into control, progesterone-treated, and estrogen-treated groups. Body weight, food intake, and subcutaneous fat mass were lower in both the progesterone and estrogen groups than in the control group. The estrogen group exhibited higher serum OT levels than the control group, whereas the OT levels of the progesterone and control groups did not differ. The serum leptin levels of both the progesterone and estrogen groups were lower than those of the control group. Gene expression analysis of OT, leptin, and their receptors in the hypothalamus and adipose tissue found few significant differences among the groups. Hypothalamic neuropeptide Y (NPY) and pro-opiomelanocortin (POMC) mRNA levels involved in appetite regulation were slightly altered in the progesterone and estrogen groups. These findings suggest that progesterone treatment may have favorable effects on body weight, appetite, and fat mass regulation in post-menopausal conditions and that the mechanisms underlying these effects of progesterone differ from those underlying the effects of estrogen.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Primary analysis of the multicenter, open-label, single-arm, phase II DESTINY-Breast01 trial (median follow-up 11.1 months) demonstrated durable antitumor activity with trastuzumab deruxtecan (T-DXd) in patients with human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)-positive metastatic breast cancer (mBC) previously treated with trastuzumab emtansine (T-DM1). We report updated cumulative survival outcomes with a median follow-up of 26.5 months (data cut-off 26 March 2021). PATIENTS AND METHODS Patients with HER2-positive mBC resistant or refractory to T-DM1 received T-DXd 5.4 mg/kg intravenously every 3 weeks until disease progression, unacceptable adverse events, or withdrawal of consent. The primary endpoint was confirmed objective response rate (ORR) by independent central review (ICR). Secondary endpoints included overall survival (OS), duration of response (DoR), progression-free survival (PFS), and safety. RESULTS The ORR by ICR was 62.0% [95% confidence interval (CI) 54.5% to 69.0%] in patients who received T-DXd 5.4 mg/kg every 3 weeks (n = 184). Median OS was 29.1 months (95% CI 24.6-36.1 months). Median PFS and DoR were 19.4 months (95% CI 14.1-25.0 months) and 18.2 months (95% CI 15.0 months-not evaluable), respectively. Drug-related treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs) were observed in 183 patients (99.5%), and 99 patients (53.8%) had one or more grade ≥3 TEAEs. Adjudicated drug-related interstitial lung disease/pneumonitis occurred in 15.8% of patients (n = 29), of which 2.7% (n = 5) were grade 5. CONCLUSIONS These updated results provide further evidence of sustained antitumor activity of T-DXd with a consistent safety profile in heavily pretreated patients with HER2-positive mBC.

Abstract
Activin A promotes the development of endometriotic lesions in a murine model of endometriosis, and the immunohistochemical localization of phosphorylated suppressor of mothers against decapentaplegic homolog 2/3 (pSMAD2/3) complex in endometriotic lesions has been reported. Activin may therefore be involved in the development and proliferation of endometriotic cells via the SMAD signaling pathway. However, few detailed reports exist on SMAD7 expression in endometriosis. The purpose of this study was to investigate the expression of pSMAD2/3 or pSMAD3 and SMAD7 in the orthotopic human endometrium, ovarian endometriosis, and endometriotic lesions in a murine model and the effect of activin A on pSMAD2/3 and SMAD7 expression. We established an endometriosis murine model via the intraperitoneal administration of endometrial tissue and blood from donor mice. Activin A was intraperitoneally administered to the activin group. We immunohistochemically evaluated orthotopic endometria, ovarian endometriotic tissues, and endometriotic lesions in the murine model followed by western blotting. We found that pSMAD3 and SMAD7 were expressed in ovarian endometriosis and orthotopic endometria from patients with and without endometriosis. In the murine model, endometriotic lesions expressed pSMAD2/3 and SMAD7 in the activin and control groups, and higher SMAD7 expression was found in the activin group. To the best of our knowledge, this study is the first to show that SMAD7 expression is upregulated in endometriosis. In conclusion, these results suggest that activin A activates the SMAD signaling pathway and promotes the development of endometriotic lesions, thus identifying SMAD7 as a potential therapeutic target for endometriosis.

Abstract
In recent years, the effects of androgens on metabolic and body weight regulation systems and their underlying mechanisms have been gradually revealed in females. In women and experimental animals of reproductive age, androgen excess can adversely affect metabolic functioning, appetite, and body weight regulation. In addition, excess androgens can increase the risk of metabolic disorders, such as obesity, insulin resistance, and diabetes. These unfavorable effects of androgens are induced by alterations in the actions of hypothalamic appetite-regulatory factors, reductions in energy expenditure, insulin resistance in skeletal muscle, and β-cell dysfunction. Interestingly, these unfavorable effects of androgens on metabolic and body-weight regulation systems are neither observed nor evident in ovariectomized animals and post-menopausal women, indicating that the adverse effects of androgens might be dependent on the estrogen milieu. Recent findings may provide novel sex- and age-specific strategies for treating metabolic diseases.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Leptomeningeal metastases (LM) are devastating complications of epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR)-mutated non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Although osimertinib, a third-generation EGFR-tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI), has better penetration into the central nervous system than first-generation EGFR-TKIs, data on the distinct activity of EGFR-TKIs in untreated advanced EGFR-mutated NSCLC with LM are lacking. PATIENTS AND METHODS We retrospectively reviewed patients treated with EGFR-TKIs for TKI-untreated common EGFR-mutated NSCLC with LM between July 2002 and July 2021 at the National Cancer Center Hospital. The patients were divided into two groups: patients treated with osimertinib (Osi group) and those treated with gefitinib or erlotinib [first-generation (1G)-TKI group]. RESULTS Of the 967 patients, 71 were eligible, including 29 in the Osi group and 42 in the 1G-TKI group. The median progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) in the Osi group were better than those in the 1G-TKI group (PFS: 16.9 months versus 8.6 months, P = 0.007, and OS: 26.6 months versus 20.0 months, P = 0.158). The LM-overall response rate (ORR) and LM-PFS were significantly better in the Osi group than in the 1G-TKI group (LM-ORR: 62.5% versus 25.7%, P = 0.007; LM-PFS: 23.4 months versus 12.1 months, P = 0.021). In the subgroup analysis of EGFR mutation status, LM-PFS for patients with exon 19 deletion was significantly longer in the Osi group than in the 1G-TKI group (32.7 months versus 13.4 months, P = 0.013), whereas those with L858R mutation in exon 21 did not differ between the two groups. In the multivariate analysis, osimertinib and exon 19 deletion were significant factors for better LM-PFS and OS. CONCLUSION Osimertinib can be more effective for untreated common EGFR-mutated NSCLC patients with LM, especially those with exon 19 deletion, compared to first-generation TKIs.

Abstract
The most recent version of the European Society for Medical Oncology (ESMO) Clinical Practice Guidelines for the diagnosis, staging and treatment of patients with metastatic breast cancer (MBC) was published in 2021. A special, hybrid guidelines meeting was convened by ESMO and the Korean Society of Medical Oncology (KSMO) in collaboration with nine other Asian national oncology societies in May 2022 in order to adapt the ESMO 2021 guidelines to take into account the differences associated with the treatment of MBC in Asia. These guidelines represent the consensus opinions reached by a panel of Asian experts in the treatment of patients with MBC representing the oncological societies of China (CSCO), India (ISMPO), Indonesia (ISHMO), Japan (JSMO), Korea (KSMO), Malaysia (MOS), the Philippines (PSMO), Singapore (SSO), Taiwan (TOS) and Thailand (TSCO). The voting was based on the best available scientific evidence and was independent of drug access or practice restrictions in the different Asian countries. The latter were discussed when appropriate. The aim of these guidelines is to provide guidance for the harmonisation of the management of patients with MBC across the different regions of Asia, drawing from data provided by global and Asian trials whilst at the same time integrating the differences in genetics, demographics and scientific evidence, together with restricted access to certain therapeutic strategies.

Abstract
AIM The abnormal secretion of luteinizing hormone (LH) is one of the typical features of polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) and adopted in the diagnostic criteria of the Japan Society of Obstetrics and Gynecology (JSOG). We investigated cut-off values for LH and the LH/follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) ratio in resent two measurement systems for the diagnosis of PCOS. METHODS Ninety-nine controls and 106 patients with PCOS were enrolled. Serum LH and FSH levels were measured using an electrochemiluminescence immunoassay (ARCHITECT) and chemiluminescence immunoassay (ECLusys). We examined the distribution of the measured levels, selected the conversion closest to the standard normal distribution in the control group, and calculated mean + 1 SD values for LH and the LH/FSH ratio as candidates. Cut-off values coincided with the medians of the candidates in the two assay systems using a regression equation. We calculated the endocrinological abnormality rate in PCOS according to the JSOG criteria by abnormal LH secretion and elevated T. RESULTS Cut-off values for LH (mIU/mL) and the LH/FSH ratio were 7.1 and 1.21, respectively, in ARCHITECT, and 9.9 and 1.51, respectively, in ECLusys. The detection rates of endocrinological abnormalities in PCOS were 72.2% and 70.6% in the nonoverweight/obese PCOS group and overweight/obese PCOS group, respectively, in ARCHITECT, and 69.4% and 73.5%, respectively, in ECLusys. CONCLUSION We obtained cut-off values of LH and the LH/FSH ratio for diagnostic criteria of JSOG criteria for PCOS, that were highly compatible between two major assay systems. These cut-off values will contribute to the diagnosis of PCOS in Japan and presumably in women of Asian ethnicities.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES This study aimed to examine whether the decrease in muscular echo-intensity of the quadriceps by ultrasound in older inpatients is related to the improvement of gait independence than the increase of muscle thickness. DESIGN Longitudinal study. SETTING Hospital-based study. PARTICIPANTS This study included 171 inpatients aged ≥ 65 years (median age: 84.0 [77.0-88.0], 56.1% female). Patients who were able to walk independently at hospital admission were excluded from the study. MEASUREMENTS Improvement of gait independence during hospital stay was assessed using the change in Functional Independence Measure (FIM) gait score (i.e., FIM gait score at hospital discharge minus FIM gait score at hospital admission) and FIM gait score at hospital discharge. Muscular echo-intensity and muscle thickness of the quadriceps were assessed at hospital admission and discharge using ultrasound images, respectively. Muscular echo-intensity has been shown to be mainly related to intramuscular adipose tissue. Multiple linear regression analysis was performed to identify the factors independently associated with the change in FIM gait score and FIM gait score at discharge. RESULTS Change in quadriceps echo-intensity was independently and significantly associated with the change in FIM gait score (β = -0.22, p = 0.017) and FIM gait score at hospital discharge (β = -0.21, p = 0.017). In contrast, change in quadriceps thickness was not independently and significantly associated with the change in FIM gait score (β = 0.16, p = 0.050) and FIM gait score at hospital discharge (β = 0.15, p = 0.050). CONCLUSIONS Our study indicates that a decrease in muscular echo-intensity of the quadriceps by ultrasound is more related to the improvement of gait independence than an increase of muscle thickness in older inpatients. Intervention for intramuscular adipose tissue of the quadriceps may be important for improving gait independence in older inpatients.

Abstract
It has been well established that undernutrition and low energy availability disturb female reproductive functions in humans and many animal species. These reproductive dysfunctions are mainly caused by alterations of some hypothalamic factors, and consequent reduction of gonadotrophin-releasing hormone (GnRH) secretion. Evidence from literature suggests that increased activity of orexigenic factors and decreased activity of anorexigenic/satiety-related factors in undernourished conditions attenuate GnRH secretion in an integrated manner. Likewise, the activity of kisspeptin neurons, which is a potent stimulator of GnRH, is also reduced in undernourished conditions. In addition, it has been suggested that gonadotrophin-inhibitory hormone, which has anti-GnRH and gonadotrophic effects, may be involved in reproductive dysfunctions under several kinds of stress conditions. It should be remembered that these alterations, i.e., promotion of feeding behavior and temporary suppression of reproductive functions, are induced to prioritize the survival of individual over that of species, and that improvements in metabolic and nutritional conditions should be considered with the highest priority.

Abstract
Two dogs with anorexia and rapid weight loss were referred to our hospital due to a right renal mass and several pulmonary nodules. Both dogs underwent needle core biopsy of the mass, followed by transarterial chemoembolisation of the renal mass. A catheter was inserted from the femoral artery and advanced into the right renal artery. A suspension of carboplatin (100 mg/m2 ) and equivalent lipiodol was administered via the inserted multipurpose catheter. Immediately after, under fluoroscopic guidance, pulse injections of small amounts of gelatin particles (diameter 1 mm) dissolved in iohexol were administered until complete embolisation of the renal artery. Histopathologic diagnosis was renal cell carcinoma in both dogs. Clinical signs improved for 134 and 358 days after transarterial chemoembolisation. In addition, postoperative radiographs demonstrated a decrease in the tumour size. The dogs died 215 and 525 days after the initial evaluation, respectively. As a palliative treatment, transarterial chemoembolisation might help reduce the tumour volume and improve the quality of life in dogs with renal cell carcinoma and distant metastases.

Abstract
BACKGROUND In the SOLO2 trial (ENGOT Ov-21; NCT01874353), maintenance olaparib in patients with platinum-sensitive relapsed ovarian cancer (PSROC) and BRCA mutation significantly improved progression-free survival (PFS) and prolonged overall survival (OS). Following disease progression on olaparib, efficacy of subsequent chemotherapy remains unknown. PATIENTS AND METHODS We conducted a post-hoc hypothesis-generating analysis of SOLO2 data to determine the efficacy of different chemotherapy regimens following RECIST disease progression in patients who received olaparib or placebo. We evaluated time to second progression (TTSP) calculated from the date of RECIST progression to the next progression/death. RESULTS The study population comprised 147 patients who received chemotherapy as their first subsequent treatment after RECIST progression. Of these, 69 (47%) and 78 (53%) were originally randomized to placebo and olaparib arms, respectively. In the placebo-treated cohort, 27/69 and 42/69 received non-platinum and platinum-based chemotherapy, respectively, compared with 24/78 and 54/78, respectively, in the olaparib-treated cohort. Among patients treated with chemotherapy (N = 147), TTSP was significantly longer in the placebo than in the olaparib arm: 12.1 versus 6.9 months [hazard ratio (HR) 2.17, 95% confidence interval (CI) 1.47-3.19]. Similar result was obtained on multivariable analysis adjusting for prognostic factors at RECIST progression (HR 2.13, 95% CI 1.41-3.22). Among patients treated with platinum-based chemotherapy (n = 96), TTSP was significantly longer in the placebo arm: 14.3 versus 7.0 months (HR 2.89, 95% CI 1.73-4.82). Conversely, among patients treated with non-platinum-based chemotherapy (n = 51), the TTSP was comparable in the placebo and olaparib arms: 8.3 versus 6.0 months (HR 1.58, 95% CI 0.86-2.90). CONCLUSIONS Following progression from maintenance olaparib in the recurrent setting, the efficacy of platinum-based subsequent chemotherapy seems to be reduced in BRCA1/2-mutated patients with PSROC compared to patients not previously receiving poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase inhibitors (PARPi). The optimal strategy for patients who relapse after PARPi is an area of ongoing research.

Abstract
It has been shown that biotin, a water-soluble vitamin (B7), plays roles in reproductive functions, such as oocyte maturation and embryo development, in experimental animals. On the other hand, little is known about the clinical effects of biotin on human reproduction. In this study, serum and follicular fluid biotin levels were measured in patients who underwent in vitro fertilization/intracytoplasmic sperm injection (IVF/ICSI), and their associations with reproductive outcomes were evaluated. As a result, biotin was detected in follicular fluid, as well as serum, and the biotin levels of follicular fluid were found to be positively correlated with those of serum. The biotin levels of serum were higher than those of follicular fluid, suggesting that biotin may be taken up into the follicular fluid from the blood. Although serum and follicular fluid biotin levels tended to be higher in pregnant patients than in non-pregnant patients, these data did not show the significant statistical difference. These findings indicate that biotin does not contribute to the maintenance of oocyte quality, and hence, it does not increase fertilization and pregnancy rates. J. Med.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES This study aimed to examine the relationship between muscle mass, intramuscular adipose tissue, and body mass index (BMI) in older inpatients. DESIGN Cross-sectional study. SETTING Hospital-based study. PARTICIPANTS This study included 413 inpatients aged ≥ 65 years (186 men and 227 women). MEASUREMENTS Muscle mass and intramuscular adipose tissue of the quadriceps were assessed by measuring the muscle thickness and echo intensity on ultrasound images. To examine the relationship between quadriceps thickness and echo intensity and BMI in total participants and each sex, the Kendall rank correlation coefficient was used. Multiple regression analysis was performed to examine whether BMI was independently and significantly related to the quadriceps thickness and echo intensity, even after adjusting for other variables for total participants and each sex. The independent variables in multiple regression analyses were BMI, age, disease, days from onset disease. RESULTS The results of the correlation analyses showed that BMI was significantly related to the quadriceps thickness (total participants, τ = 0.431; men, τ = 0.491; women, τ = 0.388) and echo intensity (total participants, τ = -0.239; men, τ = -0.318; women, τ = -0.188). In the multiple regression analysis, BMI was independently and significantly associated with the quadriceps thickness (total participants, β = 0.535; men, β = 0.548; women, β = 0.519) and echo intensity (total participants, β = -0.287; men, β = -0.398; women, β = -0.210). CONCLUSION This study indicated that older inpatients with a higher BMI have greater muscle mass and less intramuscular adipose tissue of the quadriceps. These results suggested that a higher BMI in older inpatients is related to higher quadriceps muscle quality.

Abstract
Objectives : It has been suggested that the clinical outcomes of frozen-thawed embryo transfer (ET) are superior to those of fresh embryo transfer. We examined whether a freeze-all strategy is necessary for all embryo transfers, and, if not, to evaluate the conditions in which the pregnancy rates of fresh embryo transfer and frozen-thawed ET did not differ. Methods : Patients who underwent blastocyst transfer at Tokushima University Hospital between 2008 and 2019 were enrolled. The clinical outcomes and clinical characteristics of 1,022 patients that underwent fresh embryo transfer and 1,728 patients that underwent frozen-thawed ET were examined retrospectively. We considered the factors that influenced the pregnancy outcomes of fresh embryo transfer. Results : The frozen-thawed ET group exhibited significantly higher pregnancy, live-birth, and miscarriage rates than the fresh embryo transfer group. In the fresh embryo transfer group, a high progesterone level on the day of the human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) trigger and lower grade embryos were risk factors for a low pregnancy rate. However, in the cases in which the progesterone level was < 1.0 ng / mL the pregnancy rate was equal to that of frozen-thawed ET. Conclusions : A freeze-all strategy is not necessary for embryo transfers, but should be employed in cases involving pre-ovulatory progesterone elevation. J. Med. Invest. 69 : 224-229, August, 2022.

Abstract
Background Although animal models of PCOS have been used in many studies, none of them can reproduce both the reproductive and metabolic phenotypes of PCOS. In addition, behavioral parameters have not been evaluated in PCOS animal models. Purpose We tried to produce an improved rat model of PCOS, and the reproductive, metabolic, and behavioral phenotypes of the model rats were evaluated. Methods Female rats were implanted with silicon tubes containing oil-dissolved dihydrotestosterone (Oil-DHT) as a new PCOS model. Their phenotypes were compared with those of conventional PCOS model rats (DHT), into which tubes containing crystalline DHT were implanted, and non-DHT-treated rats (control). Results Both the Oil-DHT and DHT rats showed greater body weight gain, food intake, and fat depot weight than the control rats. Furthermore, these groups showed fewer estrous stages and increased numbers of cystic follicles. The DHT rats exhibited lower ovarian and uterine weights than the control rats, whereas no such changes were observed in the Oil-DHT rats. The Oil-DHT and DHT rats showed less locomotor activity in the light phase than the control rats. Conclusions Our proposed PCOS model reproduced both the reproductive and metabolic phenotypes of PCOS and may have potential for PCOS research.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Adjuvant abemaciclib combined with endocrine therapy (ET) previously demonstrated clinically meaningful improvement in invasive disease-free survival (IDFS) and distant relapse-free survival (DRFS) in hormone receptor-positive, human epidermal growth factor receptor 2-negative, node-positive, high-risk early breast cancer at the second interim analysis, however follow-up was limited. Here, we present results of the prespecified primary outcome analysis and an additional follow-up analysis. PATIENTS AND METHODS This global, phase III, open-label trial randomized (1 : 1) 5637 patients to adjuvant ET for ≥5 years ± abemaciclib for 2 years. Cohort 1 enrolled patients with ≥4 positive axillary lymph nodes (ALNs), or 1-3 positive ALNs and either grade 3 disease or tumor ≥5 cm. Cohort 2 enrolled patients with 1-3 positive ALNs and centrally determined high Ki-67 index (≥20%). The primary endpoint was IDFS in the intent-to-treat population (cohorts 1 and 2). Secondary endpoints were IDFS in patients with high Ki-67, DRFS, overall survival, and safety. RESULTS At the primary outcome analysis, with 19 months median follow-up time, abemaciclib + ET resulted in a 29% reduction in the risk of developing an IDFS event [hazard ratio (HR) = 0.71, 95% confidence interval (CI) 0.58-0.87; nominal P = 0.0009]. At the additional follow-up analysis, with 27 months median follow-up and 90% of patients off treatment, IDFS (HR = 0.70, 95% CI 0.59-0.82; nominal P < 0.0001) and DRFS (HR = 0.69, 95% CI 0.57-0.83; nominal P < 0.0001) benefit was maintained. The absolute improvements in 3-year IDFS and DRFS rates were 5.4% and 4.2%, respectively. Whereas Ki-67 index was prognostic, abemaciclib benefit was consistent regardless of Ki-67 index. Safety data were consistent with the known abemaciclib risk profile. CONCLUSION Abemaciclib + ET significantly improved IDFS in patients with hormone receptor-positive, human epidermal growth factor receptor 2-negative, node-positive, high-risk early breast cancer, with an acceptable safety profile. Ki-67 index was prognostic, but abemaciclib benefit was observed regardless of Ki-67 index. Overall, the robust treatment benefit of abemaciclib extended beyond the 2-year treatment period.

Abstract
Introduction
Chronic inflammation has been receiving considerable attention as an emerging risk factor for cardiovascular disease. In contrast, with the aging of the population, frailty has been also attracting a great deal of attention as the residual risk for cardiovascular disease. Although inflammation and frailty exacerbate each other and have an adverse effect on many diseases, the relationship between chronic inflammation and frailty and the impact of these combination on long-term prognosis in patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS) are not elucidated.
Purpose
The aims of this study were to determine the association between chronic inflammation and frailty and its impact on long-term cardiovascular outcomes in patients with ACS.
Methods
A total of 482 consecutive ACS patients with obstructive coronary artery disease (age 66±12 years, male 81%) were enrolled in this observational study. We evaluated patients' gait speed as a measure of frailty before discharge. C-reactive protein (CRP) levels at 1 month after discharge were also evaluated as inflammation in the chronic phase. According to commonly used criteria of the residual inflammation (CRP>0.2 mg/dL) and the definition of the European Working Group for Sarcopenia (gait speed ≤0.8 m/sec), patients were stratified by 4 subgroups: low/high CRP with slow/normal gait speed. The primary endpoint was composite outcomes of cardiovascular death, myocardial infarction and ischemic stroke.
Results
While there was no significant association between CRP levels and gait speed in all patients, a significant negative association between two variables was observed in the high CRP group (Spearman's ρ = −0.31, p=0.001). During the median follow-up of 6 years, primary endpoints have occurred in 82 patients. Overall, event-free rates differed significantly among the 4 groups, demonstrating the lowest event-free rate in the patients with high CRP and slow gait speed (p<0.0001; Figure). In the multivariate analysis, high CRP (adjusted HR 1.99, 95% CI 1.14–3.46, p=0.02) and slow gait speed (adjusted HR 1.82, 95% CI 1.09–3.04, p=0.02) were independently and significantly associated with the primary endpoint. Moreover, the patients with both high CRP and slow gait speed had a 2.6-fold higher risk of cardiovascular events compared to others (adjusted HR 2.62, 95% CI 1.36–5.05, p=0.004).
Conclusion
In the patients with ACS, CRP levels and gait speed were negatively associated in the high CRP group. Chronic inflammation and frailty were both associated with poor prognosis in ACS and in particular, the combination of these factors was strongly associated with poor prognosis.

Abstract
Endometriosis is characterised by inflammation and fibrotic changes. Our previous study using a mouse model showed that proinflammatory factors present in peritoneal haemorrhage exacerbated inflammation in endometriosis-like grafts, at least in part through the activation of prostaglandin (PG) E2 receptor and protease-activated receptor (PAR). In addition, hypoxia is a well-known inducer of fibrosis that may be associated with epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT). However, the complex molecular interactions between hypoxia and proinflammatory menstruation-related factors, PGE2 and thrombin, a PAR1 agonist, on EMT in endometriosis have not been fully characterised. To explore the effects of hypoxia and proinflammatory factors on EMT-like changes in endometrial cells, we determined the effects of PGE2 and thrombin (P/T) on EMT marker expression and cell migration in three dimensional cultured human endometrial epithelial cells (EECs) and endometrial stromal cells (ESCs). Treatment of EECs with P/T under hypoxia stimulated cell migration, increased the expression of mesenchymal N-cadherin, vimentin and C-X-C chemokine receptor type 4 (CXCR4), and reduced the expression of epithelial E-cadherin. Furthermore, treatment with C-X-C motif chemokine ligand 12 (CXCL12), a ligand for CXCR4, increased EMT marker expression and cell migration. In ESCs, P/T or oestrogen treatment under hypoxic conditions increased the expression and secretion of CXCL12. Taken together, our data show that hypoxic and proinflammatory stimuli induce EMT, cell migration and inflammation in EECs, which was increased by CXCL12 derived from ESCs. These data imply that inflammatory mediators in retrograde menstrual fluid contribute to ectopic endometrial EMT and migration in the presence of peritoneal hypoxia.

Abstract
Background
The early transmitral flow velocity (E) divided by the early diastolic velocity of the mitral valve annulus (e') is referred to as the “E/e' ratio,” is useful even for ST elevation acute myocardial infarction (STEMI). However, the role of late diastolic velocity (a') which reveals the atrial function for STEMI is still unclear.
Objectives
We evaluated the clinical usefulness of tissue Doppler including atrial function for a first-time STEMI by long time follow up. Furthermore, we evaluated the meaning of each parameters by performing immediately after PCI or 2 weeks later.
Methods
We treated consecutive 571 first-time STEMI patients by immediate PCI within 12 hours after onset, and we examined 270 patients at immediately after PCI (GroupA, 65 years, 250 male) and 301 patients at 2 weeks after onset (GroupB, 64 years, 243 male). We examined trans mitral flow and TDI, then defined E/e' as LV filling pressure and A/a' as left atrial function. We followed them for a long time (>5 years). The primary end point (PE) was cardiac death or re-admission for heart failure (HF).
Results
We followed the patients in Group A for 10 years, Group B for 5 years. PE occurred in 64 patients in GroupA during 10 years, and 45 patients in GroupB during 5 years. We analyzed the univariate and multivariate Cox hazard analyses and we compared e' and a', E/e' and A/a' (Table). In GroupA, a' and A/a' were the independent predictors, on the other hand neither a' nor A/a' were the predictors in GroupB. E/e' was an independent predictor both in GroupA and B.
Conclusion
TDI parameters have different meanings by the timing of echocardiography after onset of a first-time STEMI. These results demonstrated that atrial dysfunction immediately after onset of STEMI suggests the poor prognosis after STEMI.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
The feature tracking (FT) technique has been proposed as a robust method to evaluate the myocardial strain using conventional cine magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the left ventricle. Data is limited regarding the relationship between FT-derived myocardial strain and diffuse myocardial fibrosis evaluated by T1 mapping in patients with non-ischemic dilated cardiomyopathy (NIDCM).
Purpose
The aim of this study was to evaluate the correlation between extracellular volume (ECV) by T1 mapping and myocardial strain by FT in patients with NIDCM.
Methods
A total of sixty-four patients with NIDCM (62±12 years) and 15 controls (62±11 years) were studied. Using a 1.5T MR scanner, pre- and post- T1 mapping images of LV wall at mid-ventricular level was acquired to calculate ECV by modified Look-Locker inversion recovery (MOLLI) sequence. Radial strain (RS), circumferential strain (CS) and longitudinal strain (LS) was assessed by FT technique. ECV and myocardial strain were compared using a 6-segment model at mid-ventricular level.
Results
Compared to the controls, the NIDCM patients had a significantly higher ECV (0.30±0.02 vs. 0.24±0.01, p<0.001) and impaired myocardial strain (RS, 24.2±3.0 vs. 52.2±6.2, p<0.001; CS, −7.5±2.1 vs. −15.3±2.2, p<0.001; LS −10.4±3.5 vs. −20.2±4.7, p<0.001, respectively). Similar results were obtained when comparing all 6 myocardial segments (segment 7–12) (all p values <0.001). In a segment-based analysis, a significant positive correlation was found between the ECV and CS (r=0.26 to 0.41; all p values <0.05), a negative correlation was found between the ECV and RS (r=−0.31 to −0.41; all p values <0.05). In a patient-based analysis, there were significant positive correlations between the ECV and CS (r=0.45, p<0.001), ECV and LS from 2-chamber view (r=0.30, p=0.006), ECV and LS from 4-chamber view (r=0.37, p<0.001). There was a significant negative correlation between the ECV and RS (r=−0.43, p<0.001) (FIGURE)
Conclusions
In NIDCM patients, severity of myocardial fibrosis evaluated by T1 mapping is associated with impaired myocardial strain by FT technique.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Balloon angioplasty, including drug-coated balloon (DCB), is an important option of percutaneous coronary interventions (PCI), even in the drug-eluting stent era. Although quantitative coronary angiography (QCA) has been frequently used to determine the optimal endpoint of balloon angioplasty, physiological assessment may add incremental prognostic values. Quantitative flow ratio (QFR) has evolved as a novel 3D QCA-based physiological index to estimate fractional flow reserve without hyperemia nor pressure guidewire, offering both anatomical and functional lesion assessments. This study aimed to characterize post-procedural anatomical and physiological indexes by QFR and to compare their prognostic impacts on long-term clinical outcomes.
Methods
This retrospective study included 98 patients with de novo (n=39) or in-stent restenosis (n=59) lesions who underwent PCI with DCB (n=69) or plain-old balloon angioplasty (POBA, n=29). All lesions were analyzed by QCA and QFR. QCA analysis measured lesion length, reference lumen diameter (RLD), minimum lumen diameter (MLD) and percent diameter stenosis (%DS) at pre- and post-procedures as anatomical indexes. QFR analysis measured post-procedural QFR of target vessel (QFR-vessel) and QFR-gradient (ΔQFR between proximal and distal segments of the lesion) as physiological indexes. Primary endpoint was target lesion revascularization (TLR) within 1-year post-procedure.
Results
Target lesion profiles were as follows: lesion length 26.3±16.6 mm, RLD 2.90±0.70 mm, MLD 0.94±0.32 mm and %DS 79.3±18.6%. At post-procedure, MLD, residual %DS, QFR-vessel and QFR-gradient of target lesions were 1.88±0.49 mm, 34.7±10.6%, 0.84±0.13 and 0.06±0.04, respectively. During 1 year post-procedure, TLR occurred in 19 (19%) patients. Patients with TLR showed smaller MLD (1.66±0.45 mm vs. 1.93±0.49 mm, p=0.028) and QFR-vessel (0.79±0.03 vs. 0.85±0.01, p=0.06), and greater residual %DS (42.7±11.3% vs. 32.8±9.5%, p=0.0002) and QFR-gradient (0.12±0.06 vs. 0.04±0.02, p<0.0001) at post-procedure compared with those without. In multivariate analysis including several clinical characteristics and anatomical indexes, QFR-gradient at post-procedure was independently associated with TLR within 1-year, demonstrating higher prognostic value compared with post-procedural MLD and residual %DS (Figure). The receiver-operating characteristics curve analysis identified the best cut-off value of QFR-gradient as 0.08 for predicting 1-year TLR after balloon angioplasty, irrespective of balloon type (DCB or POBA) (Figure 1).
Conclusions
Post-procedural QFR-gradient within the lesion was an independent and stronger predictor of subsequent TLR, compared with anatomical indexes. Further studies are warranted to investigate whether QFR guidance to optimize PCI procedure could improve clinical outcomes in patients with balloon angioplasty.

Abstract
Background/Introduction
Reduced functional capacity is an important phenotype of heart failure (HF), even though it may be considered multifactorial, especially in HF with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF). Impairment in skeletal muscle may be one of extra-cardiac factors for reduced functional capacity and subsequent poor outcome.
Purpose
We sought to investigate the impact of the impairment in skeletal muscle, defined by the cut-offs proposed by the international consensus, on functional capacity and clinical outcome, in HF patients with preserved and reduced EF (HFrEF).
Methods
This is a multicenter prospective study including 1317 consecutive older (≥65 years) hospitalized patients with HF [HFpEF (ejection fraction ≥45%, n=675, 82±7 years, 46.4% male) and HFrEF (ejection fraction <45%, n=642, 78±8 years, 68.4% male)].
Results
HFrEF patients were more likely to have low skeletal muscle mass measured by bioelectrical impedance analysis (30.9% vs 22.1%, p=0.003) whereas less likely to have low muscle strength (handgrip strength; 62.9% vs 73.8%, p<0.001) than HFpEF, resulting in similar prevalence of sarcopenia between the two groups (21.6% vs 18.1%, p=0.19). In HFrEF, presence of sarcopenia was an independent predictor of reduced functional capacity assessed by a 6-minute walk distance (standardized beta=−0.093, p=0.039 in multivariate linear regression analysis) and 1-year mortality (adjusted hazard ratio (aHR) and 95% CI; 2.14 (1.22–3.70), p=0.009 in multivariate Cox-regression analysis). In patients with HFpEF, sarcopenia could predict mortality (aHR and 95% CI; 2.23 (1.23–3.91), p=0.009), though its association with reduced functional capacity was not significant after multivariate adjustment (standardized beta=−0.059, p=0.20). Kaplan-Meier survival curves in HFpEF and HFrEF are shown (Figure).
Conclusion(s)
In older patients with HF, sarcopenia was similarly contributed to mortality in HFpEF and HFrEF whereas its influence on functional capacity was pronounced in HFrEF.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
The Catheter Ablation versus Standard Conventional Therapy in Patients with Left Ventricular Dysfunction and Atrial Fibrillation (CASTLE-AF) trial has shown that the catheter ablation (CA) for atrial fibrillation (AF) significantly reduced the risk of death and hospitalization for heart failure in patients with non-ischemic dilated cardiomyopathy (NIDCM) and AF (N Engl J Med 2018; 378:417–27). In addition, the Catheter Ablation Versus Medical Rate Control in Atrial Fibrillation and Systolic Dysfunction (CAMERA-MRI) study demonstrated that the absence of myocardial fibrosis on late gadolinium enhanced (LGE) magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is associated with improvement of left ventricular systolic function after CA in NIDCM patients with AF (J Am Coll Cardiol 2017; 70:1949–61). Extracellular volume fraction (ECV) by T1 mapping has emerges as a non-invasive mean to quantify diffuse myocardial fibrosis.
Purpose
The aim of this study was to compare the predictive value of LGE-MRI and ECV by T1 mapping for the prediction of improvement of LVEF after CA in NIDCM patients.
Methods
A total of twenty-eight patients with NIDCM and AF (age: 67±10 years; 25 (89%) male; LVEF: 34.1±8.8%) were studied. Using a 1.5T MR scanner and 32 channel cardiac coils, cine MRI, LGE-MRI, pre- and post- T1 mapping images of LV wall at mid-ventricular level (modified Look-Locker inversion recovery sequence) were acquired. Myocardial fibrosis on LGE was defined as area with >5SD signal intensity of normal myocardium. ECV from six segments of mid ventricular level were averaged for each patient. All patients underwent CA for AF, and the improvement of LVEF before and after CA were evaluated by echocardiography.
Results
All patients restored sinus rhythm after CA at the time of echocardiography. The mean LVEF was 34.1±8.8% before CA and 49.1±12.0% after CA (p<0.001), resulting an improvement of 15.0±11.8%. Significant correlation was found between improvements in LVEF and amount of fibrosis on LGE-MRI (r=−0.40, p=0.034), improvement of LVEF and ECV (r=−0.55, p=0.008). In the ROC analysis, ECV had a higher discriminative ability for the improvement of LVEF after CA compared with amount of fibrosis on LGE-MRI (AUC 0.885 vs 0.650) (Figure).
Conclusions
In NIDCM patients with AF, ECV by T1 mapping had better predictive ability for improvement of LVEF after CA in comparison to LGE-MRI.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
The prognostic significance of atrial fibrillation (AF) on in-hospital mortality in acute myocardial infarction (AMI) patients is not fully understood in Japanese patients.
Methods
To elucidate the clinical significance of AF on in-hospital mortality in AMI patients, we analyzed the Japanese observational prospective multicenter registry of acute myocardial infarction (K-ACTIVE: Kanagawa ACuTe cardio Vacular rEgistry), which spans October 2016 to December 2019.
Results
A total of 3482 patients included 336 patients with AF and 3146 patients with sinus rhythm. Table 1 shows patient baseline characteristics. Patients with AF were significantly older than those with sinus rhythm (75 vs 67, P<0.0001). Prevalence of hypertension and hemodialysis were significantly greater in patients with AF than patients with sinus rhythm while prevalence of dyslipidemia and smoking were significantly less in patients with AF than patients with sinus rhythm. Table 2 shows characteristics of AMI. There were no significant difference in prevalence of STEMI, area of MI, Peak CK/CK-MB and prevalence of multivessel disease. However, patients with AF showed lower systolic blood pressure, faster heart rate, worse Killip category, greater prevalence of OHCA. Need of mechanical support including IABP/ECMO were greater in patients with AF than patients with sinus rhythm. In-hospital mortality was significantly higher in patients with AF than in patients with sinus rhythm (Figure, 10.4% versus 5.2%, P=0.0005). This trend didn't change even after adjustment with age and sex (Odds ratio 1.6 95% confidence interval 1.1–2.4, P=0.02).
Conclusion
AF was associated with higher in-hospital mortality in Japanese AMI patients.

Abstract
Abstract
Objectives
Doppler echocardiography is a well-recognized technique for noninvasive evaluation; however, little is known about its efficacy in patients with rapid atrial fibrillation (AF) accompanied by acute decompensated heart failure (ADHF). The aim of this study was to explore the usefulness of serial echocardiographical assessment for rapid AF patients with ADHF.
Patients
A total of 110 ADHF patients with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF) and rapid AF who were admitted to the CCU unit and received landiolol treatmentto decrease the heart rate (HR) to <110 bpm and change HR (ΔHR) of >20% within 24 hours were enrolled.
Interventions
Immediately after admission, the patients (n=110) received landiolol, and its dose was increased to the maximum; then, we repeatedly performed echocardiography. Among them, 39 patients were monitored using invasive right heart catheterization (RHC) simultaneously with echocardiography.
Measurements and main results
There were significant relationships between Doppler and RHC parameters through the landiolol treatment (Figure, baseline–max HR treatment). We observed for the major adverse events (MAE) during initial hospitalization, which included cardiac death, HF prolongation (required intravenous treatment at 30 days), and worsening renal function (WRF). MAE occurred in 44 patients, and logistic regression analyses showed that the mean left atrial pressure (mLAP)-Doppler (odds ratio = 1.132, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.05–1.23, p=0.0004) and stroke volume (SV)-Doppler (odds ratio = 0.93, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.89–0.97, p=0.001) at 24 hours were the significant predictors for MAE, and multivariate analysis showed that mLAP-Doppler was the strongest predictor (odds ratio = 1.16, 95% CI: 0.107–1.27, p=0.0005) (Table).
Conclusions
During the control of the rapid AF in HFrEF patients withADHF, echocardiography was useful to assess their hemodynamic condition, even at bedside.

Abstract
Abstract
Introduction
Dyslipidemia, especially an increase in the low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) has been established as one of the most important risk factors for atherosclerotic cardiovascular diseases. In contrast, some recent studies have shown that the low LDL-C level was associated with short-term poor prognosis in patients with cardiovascular disease, and this is so-called “cholesterol paradox”. However, there is few data evaluating the effects on long-term outcome of “cholesterol paradox” in patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS).
Purpose
The purpose of this study was to examine whether the low LDL-C level on admission affect long-term prognosis in patients with ACS.
Methods
A total of 434 ACS patients who survived to hospital discharge were enrolled in this study. All patients were statin-naïve on admission, and were received statin therapy after hospitalization. Patients were divided into the low LDL-C (≤114 mg/dl) and high LDL-C (>114 mg/dl) groups using the first tertile of the LDL-C level on admission. The primary endpoint was composite outcomes of all-cause death, myocardial infarction, ischemic stroke, hospitalization for congestive heart failure and unplanned revascularization.
Results
During a median follow-up period of 5.5 years, primary endpoint occurred in 117 patients. Overall, event-free rates differed significantly between the low and high LDL-C groups, demonstrating the lower event-free rate in patients with the low LDL-C group (38.9% in low LDL-C group versus 20.7% in high LDL-C group, p=0.0002; Figure). Even after adjustment for age, sex, body mass index, and various classical risk factors, the low LDL-C group was significantly at higher risk for primary composite outcomes compared to the high LDL-C group (adjusted hazard ratio 1.65, 95%-confidence interval 1.10–2.49, p=0.02).
Conclusion
In patients with ACS, the low LDL-C level on admission was significantly associated with long-term worse prognosis, regardless of statin therapy at discharge. In ACS patients with low LDL-C level, it might be necessary for elucidating the residual risk for secondary adverse event to improve their prognosis.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Pulmonary vein isolation (PVI) with radiofrequency ablation (RFA) is one of the important procedures for atrial fibrillation (AF). Attaining the stability of RFA, respiratory management and pain control during the procedure are required.
Purpose
We compared the characteristic parameters and procedural outcomes between general anesthesia and moderate (conscious) sedation in patients with AF performed RFA.
Methods
We performed a retrospective, 2-center observational study to compare the general anesthesia with moderate sedation during RFA on AF from January 2018 until December 2018. In general anesthesia group, we administrated propofol and muscle relaxants under mechanical ventilation. In moderate sedation group, we administrated dexmedetomidine and/or propofol with analgesic drug. Procedural time of AF ablation, first-pass PVI (pulmonary vein isolation after completing the right or left circle) were assessed.
Results
A total of 98 patients with mean age 66 ± 11 years were enrolled (80 males, 81%). Of these, 19 patients were performed RFA under general anesthesia and 79 patients were performed under moderate sedation. Age, gender, BMI, medications before admission and CHADs2 score (general anesthesia:1.9 ± 1.2 vs moderate sedation:1.5 ± 1.1, p = 0.14), left atrium diameter (40.2 ± 6.2 vs 40.6 ± 6.8 mm, p = 0.81) and proportion of paroxysmal AF (47.4 vs 54.4%, p = 0.61) were similar between two groups. Our study found catheter RFA with general anesthesia to be associated with reduced procedural time (161 ± 29 vs 241 ± 58 minutes, p < 0.01) and improved the rate of first-pass PVI (left pulmonary vein: 84.2 vs 59.5%, p = 0.06 and right pulmonary vein: 84.2 vs 58.2%, p =0.04).
Conclusions
RFA under general anesthesia improved first-pass PVI (quality of PVI) and shortened procedural time. General anesthesia may attribute to attaining the catheter and patient stability during RFA for PVI.

Abstract
PURPOSE We studied the influence of psychological stress during the early neonatal period on sexual maturation and sexual behavior in rats. METHODS Neonatal male and female rats were divided into control (C) and maternal separation (MS) groups (n = 20-24 per group). The pups in the MS groups were placed in isolation cages for 240 minutes/d from postnatal days 2-11. Vaginal opening (VO) in females and preputial separation (PS) in males (indicators of sexual maturation) were monitored, as was the estrous cycle in females. Thereafter, sexual behavior was monitored twice at 13 and 15 weeks of age. RESULTS As for sexual maturation, the onset of PS occurred significantly earlier in the MS group than in the C group, whereas the onset of VO did not differ between the groups. The length of the estrous cycle did not differ between the groups. The frequencies of sexual behaviors did not differ between the groups in either sex. CONCLUSIONS In conclusion, early-life psychological stress induced by MS advanced sexual maturation in male rats, whereas it did not affect sexual maturation in female rats. On the other hand, early-life psychological stress might not affect sexual behavior in adulthood in either sex.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Cardiac troponin (cTn) has been used as the preferred biomarker of myocardial injury for diagnosis of acute myocardial infraction (AMI) by universal definition. A large number of patients formerly classified by creatine kinase (CK) as unstable angina with the WHO criteria in Japan are now diagnosed by cTn as non-ST elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI). In this report, we aimed to understand its prevalence and clinical features of AMI diagnosed by using universal definition and the WHO criterial in real world.
Method
This registry is a cross-sectional study of 53 facilities in Kanagawa prefecture of Japan. 4372 AMI patients were enrolled who received primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) between October 1, 2015 and January 29, 2019. Patients were divided into 3 groups, 3268 patients with ST elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI), 628 patients with NSTEMI patients who satisfied the WHO criteria with CK elevation beyond twice upper limit of normal (NSTEMI + CK), and 476 patients with NSTEMI who didn’t satisfy the WHO criteria without CK elevation (NSTEMI-CK).
Result
Baseline clinical characteristics of the study patients are shown in Table 1. In-hospital mortality was significantly lower in patients with NSTEMI-CK (1.9%) than in STEMI (6.0%, P < 0.001) and NSTEMI + CK (5.3%, P < 0.004) (Figure 1). Kaplan-Meier analyses for 0-30 days of cardiac death are shown in Figure 2. From day 0, the Kaplan-Meier curves began to diverge in favor of NSTEMI-CK for up to 30 days.
Conclusion
AMI patients showed distinct clinical features depends on the type. We should be aware of the difference for the diagnosis of AMI by using universal definitions.

Abstract
Abstract
Introduction
Muscle, fat and bone mass may play some roles to keep physical activity and favorable outcome in patients with cardiovascular diseases. However, there is a paucity of data regarding the effects on the prognosis of skeletal muscle, fat, and bone mass in patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI).
Purpose
Our purpose was to examine whether skeletal muscle, fat, and bone mass each affect the prognosis after STEMI.
Methods
A total of 354 male patients with STEMI were enrolled in this study. Dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry scan was performed before discharge. All patients were followed up for the primary composite outcome of all-cause death, nonfatal myocardial infarction, nonfatal ischemic stroke, hospitalization for congestive heart failure, and unplanned revascularization.
Results
During a median follow-up of 32 months, 57 patients experienced primary composite outcome. Each of skeletal muscle, fat, and bone mass were indexed by height squared (kg/m2) and divided into two groups using the cut-off value obtained from the maximum Youden index to predict the primary composite outcome. The event rate was significantly higher in patients with low appendicular skeletal muscle mass index (ASMI) (29.2% vs 11.7%, p<0.001), low fat mass index (FMI) (22.9% vs 13.3%, p=0.030), and low bone mass index (23.8% vs 11.6%, p=0.002). After adjustment for age, renal function, diabetes mellitus, infarct size, Killip classification, and body mass index, low ASMI but not FMI (p=0.150) and bone mass index (p=0.159) was independently and significantly associated with the primary composite outcome (adjusted hazard ratio 2.12, 95%-confidence interval 1.05–4.31, p=0.035).
Conclusions
Index about muscle mass rather than fat and bone mass have prognostic impact in male patients with STEMI.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Low muscle mass with or without fat mass is a main component of cachexia in heart failure (HF) and associated with poor prognosis. There is a paucity of data, however, regarding prognostic impact of each component of body composition (i.e., muscle, fat, and bone mass).
Purpose
We hypothesized that muscle, fat, and bone mass have different impact on prognosis in HF.
Methods
We retrospectively analyzed 418 patients admitted with a diagnosis of HF (71±13 years, 59% male, 46 and 54% with preserved/mid-range (left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) ≥40%) and reduced (<40%) LVEF), respectively). Dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry was performed at stable state after decongestion therapy.
Results
Mean appendicular skeletal mass index (ASMI) was 6.9±1.2 kg/m2 in men and 5.6±0.9 in women, so that 55% of patients had low muscle mass categorized by the Asian Working Group of Sarcopenia. During median follow-up of 502 days, 163 (39.0%) patients experienced primary outcome defined as death or heart failure hospitalization. Using optimal cut-off of each body component chosen on the basis of a receiver operating characteristic curve and the Youden method, we demonstrated that lower ASMI defined by the cut-off of 6.5 kg/m2 in male and 5.2 in female (adjusted hazard ratio (HR): 1.768, 95% CI: 1.210–2.581, p=0.003) and bone mass (adjusted HR: 1.498, 95% CI: 1.051–2.152, p=0.025), but not lower fat mass (p=0.34), were associated with elevated risk of primary outcome after multivariate adjustment. Kaplan-Meier curves with p value by Log-rank test were shown in figure. In subgroup analysis, negative impact of lower ASMI was significant regardless of sex and LVEF category, whereas negative impact of low bone mass was significant only in 78 female patients with reduced LVEF.
Figure 1
Conclusions
Indices about muscle and bone mass rather than fat mass had prognostic impact in HF. The impact of each body component may different according to sex and LVEF.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Hyperglycemia is common, regardless of diabetes mellitus (DM), and is associated with increased mortality in patients with acute heart failure (AHF). Current oral heart failure (HF) medications improve the outcome in patients with AHF. However, the relationships between HF medications, admission glucose levels, and prognosis in AHF patients remained unknown.
Purpose
This study sought to investigate the effect of oral HF medications on relationships between hyperglycemia at admission and 1-year all-cause mortality in patients with AHF.
Methods
From the GREAT (Global Research on Acute Conditions Team) registry, 13840 patients presenting with AHF whose admission glucose levels were available were included and followed up for 1-year all-cause mortality. Hyperglycemia was defined as a glucose levels of ≥7 mmol/L for patients without history of DM and ≥10 mmol/L for those with history of DM. Patients with hypoglycemia (defined as a glucose levels of ≤4 mmol/L, n=193, 1.4%) were excluded in this analysis.
Results
There were 6418 (%) patients with hyperglycemia and 7229 (%) patients with normoglycemia. One-year mortality was higher in patients with hyperglycemia than those with normoglycemia (1911 [30%] and 1821 [25%], respectively). Even after adjustment, the risk for 1-year mortality was significantly higher in hyperglycemia (HR 1.14, 95%-CI 1.04–1.26, P=0.008) compared with normoglycemia. Detrimental effects of hyperglycemia on 1-year mortality were more severe in de novo AHF patients than in patients with history of HF (p for interaction 0.004). Oral HF medications (beta blockers and/or angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitors/angiotensin receptor blockers) at discharge were effective in AHF patients with normoglycemia regardless of history of HF. Oral HF medications at discharge are very effective in de novo AHF patients with hyperglycemia and less effective in acute decompensated HF patients with hyperglycemia (Figure).
HF medications and 1-year mortality
Conclusions
Hyperglycemia at admission is associated with increased risk for 1-year mortality. Current oral HF medications are effective in most of subgroups, though they were less effective in patients with acute decompensated HF and hyperglycemia. These patients might need more aggressive therapies to improve outcomes.
