Abstract
BACKGROUND The standard treatment for advanced esophageal cancer with synchronous distant metastasis is systemic chemotherapy or immunotherapy. Conversion surgery is not established for esophageal cancer with synchronous distant metastasis. This study aimed to investigate the clinical impact of conversion surgery for esophageal cancer with synchronous distant metastasis after induction therapy. METHODS This multi-institutional retrospective study enrolled 66 patients with advanced esophageal cancer, including synchronous distant metastasis, who underwent induction chemotherapy or chemoradiotherapy followed by conversion surgery between 2005 and 2021. Short- and long-term outcomes were investigated. RESULTS Distant lymph node (LN) metastasis occurred in 51 patients (77%). Distant organ metastasis occurred in 15 (23%) patients. There were 41 patients with metastatic para-aortic LNs, and 10 patients with other metastatic LNs. Organs with distant metastasis included the lung in seven patients, liver in seven patients, and liver and lung in one patient. For 61 patients (92%), R0 resection was achieved. The postoperative complication rate was 47%. The in-hospital mortality rate was 1%, and the 3- and 5-year overall survival (OS) rates for all the patients were 32.4% and 24.4%, respectively. The OS rates were similar between the patients with distant LN metastasis and the patients with distant organ metastasis (3-year OS: 34.9% vs. 26.7%; P = 0.435). Multivariate analysis showed that pathologic nodal status is independently associated with a poor prognosis (hazard ratio, 2.43; P = 0.005). CONCLUSIONS Conversion surgery after chemotherapy or chemoradiotherapy for esophageal cancer with synchronous distant metastasis is feasible and promising. It might be effective for improving the long-term prognosis for patients with controlled nodal status.

Abstract
BACKGROUND In the short term, pylorus-preserving gastrectomy (PPG) has been reported to have advantages over distal gastrectomy (DG) with regard to postprandial symptoms and dumping syndrome. We aimed to evaluate the quality of life after PPG for early gastric cancer in the long term in comparison to that after DG. METHODS Twenty-six patients who underwent gastrectomy (11 PPG, 15 DG) for early gastric cancer at Osaka University Hospital participated and were followed for more than 4 years. Body weight changes, nutritional status, dual-phase scintigraphy findings, endoscopic survey results, and questionnaire responses after gastrectomy were examined. RESULTS There were significantly lower ratios of weight changes in PPG than in DG, 5 years after surgery. There were no differences in the clinicopathological characteristics, nutritional parameters, questionnaire responses, and endoscopic findings between the two groups. Based on gastric scintigraphy, although the gastric emptying of liquids showed similar curves in the two groups, gastric emptying of solids was significantly slower in the PPG group than in the DG group (P = .039). DISCUSSION PPG had advantages with regard to long-term outcomes over DG in terms of weight maintenance and the prevention of rapid gastric emptying. PPG might be efficient in patients with early gastric cancer.

Abstract
Carbon ion radiotherapy (CIRT) has received attention for the treatment of locally recurrent rectal cancer. When the surrounding primary organs are close to the irradiation site, a spacer is required to ensure safe irradiation. This work describes a novel technique using a bioabsorbable polyglycolic acid spacer placed laparoscopically and presents a technical report with five case studies. The short-term surgical outcomes were as follows: mean operating time 235 min with blood loss of 38 mL. CIRT was planned, and the patients underwent irradiation within 2 months of surgery. No pelvic infections occurred, and all procedures were performed safely. Herein, were present a technical report with reference to a video of the surgical procedure.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Muscle weakness, assessed by grip strength, has been shown to predict postoperative mortality in older patients with cancer. Because lower extremity muscle strength well reflects physical performance, we examined whether lower knee extension muscle strength predicts postoperative mortality better than grip strength in older patients with gastrointestinal cancer. DESIGN Prospective, observational study in a single institution. SETTING AND PARTICIPANTS A total of 813 patients (79.0 ± 4.2 years, 66.5% male) aged 65 years or older with gastrointestinal cancer who underwent preoperative evaluation of grip strength and isometric knee extension muscle strength between April 2012 and April 2019 were included. METHODS The study participants were prospectively followed up for postoperative mortality. Muscle weakness was defined as the lowest quartile of grip strength or knee extension strength (GS-muscle weakness and KS-muscle weakness, respectively). RESULTS Among the study participants, 176 patients died during a median follow-up of 716 days. In the Kaplan-Meier analysis, we found that patients with both GS-muscle weakness and KS-muscle weakness had a lower survival rate than those without muscle weakness. As expected, higher clinical stages and abdominal and thoracic surgeries compared with endoscopic surgery were associated with increased all-cause mortality. In addition, we found that KS-muscle weakness, but not GS-muscle weakness, was an independent prognostic factor after adjusting for sex, body mass index, cancer stage, surgical technique, and surgical site in the Cox proportional hazard model. CONCLUSIONS AND IMPLICATIONS In older patients with gastrointestinal cancer, muscle weakness based on knee extension muscle strength can be a better predictor of postoperative prognosis than muscle weakness based on grip strength.

Abstract
Perforation of esophageal cancer is one of the fatal oncologic emergencies, and a prompt and accurate treatment strategy is required. Here, we report a case of advanced esophageal cancer that had perforated during preoperative chemotherapy and was successfully resected with multidisciplinary treatment. The prognosis of perforated esophageal cancer can be expected to improve by multidisciplinary treatment appropriately combining initial treatment for infection control and subsequent cancer treatment.

Abstract
Cisplatin is one of the most predominant drugs for the chemotherapy of esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC); however, the underlying resistance mechanisms are still almost unknown. The present study performed RNA sequencing of human circular RNA (circRNA) in TE11 cells and cisplatin-resistant TE11 cells (TE11R). The expression profiles determined using CIRCexplorer2 revealed that the expression of circ_0004365, mapped on the Semaphorin 3C gene, was significantly greater in TE11R compared with in TE11. In reverse transcription-quantitative PCR, circ_0004365 expression was observed in human ESCC and non-tumor tissues and was significantly upregulated in ESCC tumor tissues after chemotherapy. Circ_0004365 expression was significantly upregulated in patients with poor pathological response (P=0.02). Furthermore, patients with advanced pT stage showed an upregulation in circ_0004365 expression after chemotherapy (P=0.02). The MTT assay revealed that knockdown of circ_0003465 in TE11 significantly decreased resistance to cisplatin. In conclusion, the present study suggested that circ_0004365 was associated with cisplatin resistance in ESCC and can be used as both a novel biomarker and a therapeutic target.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Familial gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs) are mesenchymal tumors of the digestive tract caused by germline gain-of-function mutations in the KIT gene or platelet-derived growth factor receptor alpha gene (PDGFRA). These mutations cause not only multiple GISTs but also diffuse hyperplasia of interstitial cells of Cajal (ICCs), which is related to esophageal motility disorder. CASE PRESENTATION A 53-year-old man was referred to our hospital because of anemia and dysphagia. Fifteen years earlier, he had undergone a laparoscopic partial gastrectomy for multiple gastric GISTs with a germline mutation in exon 17 of the KIT gene. An upper gastrointestinal endoscopy revealed that the patient had multiple gastric GISTs and a large esophageal diverticulum directly above the esophagogastric junction. The largest gastric tumor was 7 cm, with a delle that might cause bleeding. Because the patient presented with dysphagia, we performed video-assisted thoracic esophagectomy and laparoscopic-assisted proximal gastrectomy simultaneously. The patient had survived without metastasis for 4 years after surgery and dysphagia had improved. CONCLUSIONS This is the first report of successful laparoscopic-thoracoscopic surgery for a patient with familial gastric GISTs accompanied with a large esophageal diverticulum.

Abstract
PURPOSE This study aimed to examine the incidence of incisional hernia (IH) in elective laparoscopic colorectal surgery (LC) using regulated computed tomography (CT) images at intervals every 6 months. METHODS We retrospectively examined the diagnosis of IH in patients who underwent LC for colorectal cancer at Kansai Medical University Hospital from January 2014 to August 2018. The diagnosis of IH was defined as loss of continuity of the fascia in the axial CT images. RESULTS 470 patients were included in the analysis. IH was diagnosed in 47 cases at 1 year after LC. The IH size was 7.8 cm2 [1.3-55.6]. In total, 38 patients with IH underwent CT examination 6 months after LC, and 37 were already diagnosed with IH. The IH size was 4.1 cm2 [0-58.9]. The IH size increased in 17 cases between 6 months and 1 year postoperatively, and in 1 case, a new IH occurred. 47%(18/38) of them continued to grow until 1 year after LC. A multivariate analysis was performed on the risk of IH occurrence. SSI was most significantly associated with IH occurrence (OR:5.28 [2.14-13.05], p = 0.0003). CONCLUSION IH occurred in 10% and 7.9% at 1 year and 6 months after LC. By examining CT images taken for the postoperative surveillance of colorectal cancer, we were able to investigate the occurrence of IH in detail.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Opportunities for T4b esophageal cancer patients to receive curative surgery are increasing with the development of multidisciplinary treatments. However, the best modality to accurately diagnose infiltration to the organs surrounding T4b esophageal cancer is still unknown. The aim of this study was to determine the performance of CT and MRI in diagnosing T stage in T4b esophageal cancer, with reference to the pathological diagnosis. METHODS A retrospective medical records review of patients with T4b esophageal cancer patients from January 2017 to December 2021 was conducted. Among 125 patients who were treated for cT4b esophageal cancer in Osaka University Hospital, 30 patients were diagnosed with cT4b esophageal cancer by CT, ycT staging with CT (contrast-enhanced images) and MRI (T2-FSE images), and curative R0 resection was performed. Preoperative MRI staging was independently performed by two experienced radiologists. The diagnostic performance of CT and MRI were examined using McNemar's test. RESULTS Nineteen and 12 patients were diagnosed with ycT4b by CT and MRI, respectively. Combined T4b organ resection was performed in 15 patients. A pathological diagnosis of ypT4b was made in 11 cases. In comparison to CT, MRI showed a higher diagnostic performance, specificity (47% vs. 89%, p = 0.013), and accuracy (60% vs. 90%, p = 0.015) for CT vs. MRI. CONCLUSIONS Our results-with reference to the pathological diagnosis-revealed that MRI had a superior diagnostic performance to CT for diagnosing T4b esophageal cancer invading the surrounding organs. An accurate diagnosis of T4b esophageal cancer may facilitate the implementation of appropriate treatment strategies.

Abstract
Due to the worldwide travel restrictions caused by the 2019 coronavirus disease pandemic, many universities and students lost opportunities to engage in international exchange over the past 2 years. Teleconferencing systems have thus been developed to compensate for severe travel restrictions. Kansai Medical University in Japan and Vilnius University in Lithuania have a collaborative research and academic relationship. The two universities have been conducting an online joint international surgery lecture series for the medical students of both universities. Fifteen lectures were given from October 2021 to May 2022. The lectures focused on gastrointestinal surgery, gastroenterology, radiology, pathology, genetics, laboratory medicine, and organ transplantation. A survey of the attendees indicated that they were generally interested in the content and satisfied with attending this lecture series. Our efforts were successful in providing Japanese and Lithuanian medical students with the opportunity to engage in international exchange through lectures held in each other's countries.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The optimal treatment strategy for cT4b esophageal cancer has not been established yet. Although curative surgery is sometimes performed after induction treatments, the prognostic factor of cT4b esophageal cancer cases who underwent R0 resection remains unknown. METHODS A total of 200 patients with cT4b esophageal cancer who underwent R0 resection after induction treatments between 2001 and 2020 in our institute were included in the present study. The relationship between clinicopathological factors and patient survival is evaluated to identify useful prognostic factors. RESULTS The median and 2-year overall survival were 40.1 months and 62.8%, respectively. Disease recurrence occurred in 98 (49%) patients after surgery. Compared to induction chemotherapy alone, chemoradiation-based induction treatments were associated with decreased locoregional recurrence (34.0% vs 60.8%, P = .0077) but increased pulmonary metastases (27.7% vs 9.8%, P = .0210) and dissemination (19.1% vs 3.9%, P = .0139) after surgery. Multivariate analysis of overall survival identified the preoperative C-reactive protein/albumin ratio (hazard ratio 1.7957, P = .0031), response to induction treatments (hazard ratio 2.9663, P = .0009), postoperative pneumonia (hazard ratio 2.3784, P = .0010), and pN (2-3) (hazard ratio 1.5693, P = .0355) as independent prognostic factors. Preoperative C-reactive protein/albumin ratio (hazard ratio 1.6760, P = .0068) and postoperative pneumonia (hazard ratio 1.8365, P = .0200) were also independent prognostic factors for recurrence-free survival. CONCLUSION Curative surgery after induction therapy for cT4b esophageal cancer achieved favorable survival. Preoperative C-reactive protein/albumin ratio, postoperative pneumonia, response to induction treatments, and pN were useful prognostic factors.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Three-course neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC) followed by surgery has become a standard of care for locally advanced esophageal cancer (EC). However, some patients occasionally experience a poor tumor response to the third course and have a poor clinical outcome. METHODS An exploratory analysis of data from the authors' recent multicenter randomized phase 2 trial compared patients with locally advanced EC who received two courses (n = 78) and those who received three courses (n = 68) of NAC. The association between tumor response and clinico-pathologic factors, including survival, was evaluated to identify risk factors in the three-course group. RESULTS Of 68 patients who received three courses of NAC, 28 (41.2%) had a tumor reduction rate lower than 10% during the third course. This rate was associated with unfavorable overall survival (OS) and progression-free survival (PFS) compared with a tumor reduction rate of 10% or higher (2-year OS rate: 63.5% vs. 89.3%, P = 0.007; 2-year PFS rate: 52.6% vs. 79.7%, P = 0.020). The independent prognostic factors for OS were tumor reduction rate lower than 10% during the third course (hazard ratio [HR], 2.735; 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.041-7.188; P = 0.041) and age of 65 years or older (HR, 9.557, 95% CI 1.240-73.63; P = 0.030). Receiver operating characteristic curve and multivariable logistic regression analyses identified a tumor reduction rate lower than 50% after the first two courses as an independent predictor of a tumor reduction rate lower than 10% during the third course of NAC (HR, 4.315; 95% CI 1.329-14.02; P = 0.015). CONCLUSION Continuing NAC through a third course may worsen survival for patients who do not experience a response to the first two courses in locally advanced EC.

Abstract
Mediastinal lymph node recurrence is often observed following esophageal cancer surgery; however, no treatment has been established for the same. Surgical resection is often considered for cases of recurrence in a single lymph node region, although the procedures and approaches vary depending on the recurrence site. Right thoracoscopic resection is rarely opted for owing to its high surgical difficulty. Herein, we report a successful case of right thoracoscopic resection in the supine position for recurrent pretracheal lymph nodes following esophagectomy. The intraoperative findings revealed few adhesions around the recurrent lymph nodes due to the initial surgery, and the recurrent lymph nodes were safely resected within a short period. The patient was discharged on postoperative day 4 without any complications, and there was no recurrence after 20 months. Thus, right thoracoscopic resection may be a promising treatment option for recurrent pretracheal lymph nodes after esophagectomy.

Abstract
Planktonic Foraminifera are unique paleo-environmental indicators through their excellent fossil record in ocean sediments. Their distribution and diversity are affected by different environmental factors including anthropogenically forced ocean and climate change. Until now, historical changes in their distribution have not been fully assessed at the global scale. Here we present the FORCIS (Foraminifera Response to Climatic Stress) database on foraminiferal species diversity and distribution in the global ocean from 1910 until 2018 including published and unpublished data. The FORCIS database includes data collected using plankton tows, continuous plankton recorder, sediment traps and plankton pump, and contains ~22,000, ~157,000, ~9,000, ~400 subsamples, respectively (one single plankton aliquot collected within a depth range, time interval, size fraction range, at a single location) from each category. Our database provides a perspective of the distribution patterns of planktonic Foraminifera in the global ocean on large spatial (regional to basin scale, and at the vertical scale), and temporal (seasonal to interdecadal) scales over the past century.

Abstract
BACKGROUND/AIM Monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) that target tumor antigens have recently been developed. Their antitumor activity is mainly achieved through antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity (ADCC) via effector cells such as tumor-infiltrated macrophages and natural killer (NK) cells. CpG oligodeoxynucleotides (ODNs) have potent antitumor activity and are considered to increase the tumor infiltration of macrophages and NK cells; however, a completely solubilized novel CpG-schizophyllan (SPG) complex, K3-SPG, displays more potent antitumor activity. We recently reported the significant antitumor activity of anti-glypican-1 (GPC1) mAb against GPC1-positive esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) via ADCC. The aim of this study was to evaluate the potential synergistic antitumor activity of anti-GPC1 mAb and K3-SPG and elucidate the underlying mechanisms using a xenograft model of GPC1-positive human ESCC cells. MATERIALS AND METHODS The established human esophageal cancer cell line TE14 was subcutaneously injected into SCID mice. Xenograft mice were treated with anti-GPC1 mAb, K3-SPG, or their combination. Antitumor activity was evaluated by measuring the tumor volume. For FACS analysis, agents were administrated, and tumors were resected 1 day after the final treatment. RESULTS Anti-GPC1 mAb or K3-SPG monotherapy showed dose-dependent antitumor activity, and combination therapy with anti-GPC1 mAb and K3-SPG showed antitumor activity (p=0.0859). Flow cytometry revealed significantly increased numbers of macrophages (p=0.0133) and of the ratio of activated NK cells/total NK cells (p=0.0058) following K3-SPG or combination therapy. CONCLUSION Combination therapy with K3-SPG and anti-GPC1 mAb or another antitumor mAb may represent a new cancer treatment option acting via ADCC.

Abstract
BACKGROUND We report the long-term results as primary endpoint in a multicentre randomized prospective Phase 2 trial which compared chemoradiotherapy (CRT) and triplet chemotherapy (CT) as the initial therapy for conversion surgery (CS) in T4b esophageal cancer (EC). METHODS Patients with T4b EC were randomly assigned to the CRT group or CT group as initial treatment. CS was performed if resectable after initial or secondary treatment. The primary endpoint was 2-year overall survival, analysed by intention-to-treat. RESULTS The median follow-up period was 43.8 months. The 2-year survival rate was higher in the CRT group (55.1%; 95% CI: 41.1-68.3%) compared to the CT group (34.7%; 95% CI: 22.8-48.9%), although the difference was not significant (P = 0.11). Local and regional lymph node recurrence in patients undergoing R0 resection was significantly higher in the CT group compared to the CRT group (local: 30% versus 8%, respectively, P = 0.03; regional: 37% versus 8%, respectively, P = 0.002). CONCLUSIONS Upfront CT was not superior to upfront CRT as induction therapy for T4b EC in terms of 2-year survival and was significantly inferior to upfront CRT in terms of local and regional control.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Neoadjuvant therapy followed by surgery is the standard treatment for locally advanced esophageal cancers. During neoadjuvant therapy, tumor-induced esophageal stenosis or adverse events often cause weight loss. However, little is known about the effects of weight loss during neoadjuvant therapy on postoperative complications or prognosis. We investigated the association between weight loss during neoadjuvant chemotherapy, postoperative infectious complications, and prognosis. METHODS Data from OGSG1003, a randomized phase-II trial comparing two regimens of neoadjuvant chemotherapy, cisplatin and fluorouracil plus Adriamycin and cisplatin and fluorouracil plus docetaxel, for locally advanced esophageal squamous cell carcinoma were used. Body weight was measured before neoadjuvant chemotherapy and esophagectomy. Multivariate analysis for infectious complications and prognosis was performed. RESULTS The study included 134 patients. The median weight loss during neoadjuvant chemotherapy was 2.83% (-2.07% to 6.29%). Postoperative infectious complications were observed in 37 patients who had a significantly higher weight loss during neoadjuvant chemotherapy (5.18% vs. 1.90%, P = 0.002). Multivariate analysis revealed that > 5% of weight loss during neoadjuvant chemotherapy was the only independent factor associated with postoperative infectious complications (odds ratio 2.69, 95% confidence interval 1.12-6.46, P = 0.027). Weight loss during neoadjuvant chemotherapy was significantly associated with worse recurrence-free survival in the univariate analysis (log-rank test, P = 0.002), but this association was marginal in the multivariate analysis (hazard ratio 1.73, 95% confidence interval 0.98-3.08, P = 0.058). CONCLUSIONS Severe weight loss during neoadjuvant chemotherapy was an independent risk factor for postoperative infectious complications. Weight maintenance during neoadjuvant chemotherapy may reduce the incidence of postoperative infectious complications.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC) followed by surgery is the standard treatment for locally advanced esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC). Chemoradiotherapy (CRT) is an alternative treatment approach. However, both treatments are associated with toxicity, and the optimal treatment for older patients with ESCC is unknown. This study aimed to evaluate the treatment strategies and prognosis of older patients with locally advanced ESCC in a real-world setting.
Methods
We retrospectively evaluated 381 older patients (≥ 65 years) with locally advanced ESCC (stage IB/II/III, excluding T4) who received anticancer therapy at 22 medical centers in Japan. Based on age, performance status (PS), and organ function, the patients were classified into two groups: clinical trial eligible and ineligible groups. Patients aged ≤ 75 years with adequate organ function and a PS of 0–1 were categorized into the eligible group. We compared the treatments and prognoses between the two groups.
Results
The ineligible group had significantly shorter overall survival (OS) than the eligible group (hazard ratio [HR] for death, 1.65; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.22–2.25; P = 0.001). The proportion of patients receiving NAC followed by surgery was significantly higher in the eligible group than in the ineligible group (P = 1.07 × 10–11), whereas the proportion of patients receiving CRT was higher in the ineligible group than in the eligible group (P = 3.09 × 10–3). Patients receiving NAC followed by surgery in the ineligible group had comparable OS to those receiving the same treatment in the eligible group (HR, 1.02; 95% CI, 0.57–1.82; P = 0.939). In contrast, patients receiving CRT in the ineligible group had significantly shorter OS than those receiving CRT in the eligible group (HR, 1.85; 95% CI, 1.02–3.37; P = 0.044). In the ineligible group, patients receiving radiation alone had comparable OS to those receiving CRT (HR, 1.13; 95% CI, 0.58–2.22; P = 0.717).
Conclusions
NAC followed by surgery is justified for select older patients who can tolerate radical treatment, even if they are old or vulnerable to enrollment in clinical trials. CRT did not provide survival benefits over radiation alone in patients ineligible for clinical trials, suggesting the need to develop less-toxic CRT.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Preoperative risk assessment is important in older patients because they often have comorbidities and impaired organ function. We performed preoperative comprehensive geriatric assessment (CGA) for older patients with esophageal cancer. PATIENTS AND METHODS A total of 217 patients over 75 years old who underwent esophagectomy for thoracic esophageal cancer were analyzed. The CGA was performed preoperatively and included the Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE), Geriatric Depression Score (GDS), vitality index, Barthel index, and instrumental activities of daily living (IADL). We defined the robust group as patients with normal function on every instrument, and the pre-frail and frail groups as those with functional impairment on one instrument or two or more instruments, respectively. We assessed how the CGA correlated with postoperative complications and prognosis. RESULTS Of the 217 patients, 86 (39.6%) were in the robust group, 68 (31.3%) in the pre-frail group, and 63 (29.0%) in the frail group. Postoperative pneumonia (P = 0.026) and anastomotic leakage (P = 0.032) were significantly more common in the frail group. The frail group had a significantly longer postoperative hospitalization period (P = 0.016) and significantly lower rate of discharge to home (P = 0.016). Overall survival (OS) was significantly worse in the frail group (5-year overall survival rate, frail group versus others, 37.8% versus 52.0%, P = 0.046), but it was not significant on multivariate analysis. CONCLUSIONS The preoperative CGA in older patients with esophageal cancer was associated with risk of postoperative complications.

Abstract
BACKGROUND During laparoscopic surgery, visualization is fogged due to the influence of temperature. Fogging on the laparoscopic lens heightens the difficulty of the procedure. Therefore, the aim of this study was to analyse thermodynamics in laparoscopy. MATERIAL AND METHODS A temperature sensor was attached to the laparoscopic tip and the abdominal cavity of five swine under general anaesthesia. The laparoscope was inserted into the abdominal cavity for five minutes after heating its tip with 65 °C saline for 10-300 s. The defogged laparoscope was wiped at room temperature for 10-300 s. Then, the laparoscope was inserted into the abdominal cavity for five minutes. RESULTS The temperature five minutes after insertion was similar for the 10-300 s heating durations (approximately 32.0 °C). There was no fogging when the laparoscope was wiped for 10-30 s. Two fogging events occurred when it was wiped for 60 s (temperature difference: -3.5 °C, -4.6 °C). Five fogging events were observed immediately after insertion when it was wiped for 300 s. CONCLUSION This study showed that the heating time was more than ten seconds to prevent fogging. We found that fogging occurred when the laparoscopic tip temperature was 3.5 °C lower than the abdominal cavity temperature.

Abstract
Studies have shown that neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC) followed by surgical resection improves the survival of patients with esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC), and that the neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) nay be a prognostic biomarker in various types of cancer. Despite the noTable changes in the tumor and its microenvironment during NAC, it remains unclear how the NLR changes and which values (before or after NAC) best predict prognosis. The present study aimed to analyze changes in the NLR before and after NAC, and to determine which was a better prognostic factor. This study retrospectively analyzed 338 consecutive patients with ESCC who received NAC followed by curative resection. NLRs before (pre-NLR) and after (post-NLR) NAC were calculated, after which the impact of NAC on NLR, overall survival (OS) and recurrence-free survival (RFS), as well as the relationship between hematological toxicities and NLR, was evaluated. Cutoff values for pre- and post-NLR were 3.7 and 2.5, respectively. Patients with high post-NLR had a worse OS (P=0.0001) and 3-year RFS (P=0.03) than those with low post-NLR. Multivariate analysis identified high post-NLR, pN1 and clinical response as independent prognostic factors. In conclusion, post-NLR was revealed as a better prognostic factor than pre-NLR for patients receiving NAC followed by surgical resection.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Surgery for esophageal cancer (EC) causes morphological and functional changes in the upper gastrointestinal tract, resulting in postoperative weight loss (PWL). PWL has been shown to lead to poor nutritional status and immunocompetence, which may worsen the prognosis for several types of cancer. However, few reports have examined the relationship between weight loss (WL) in the early postoperative period and cancer prognosis. METHODS A total of 421 esophageal cancer patients underwent curative esophagectomy at Osaka University Hospital from 2010 to 2016. Based on the patients' body weight 1.5 months after surgery, they were classified into severe WL (n = 50) and slight-moderate WL (n = 371) groups. RESULTS The 5-year overall survival (OS), cancer-specific survival (CSS), and recurrence-free survival (RFS) were significantly lower in the severe WL group than the slight-moderate WL group (p = 0.0002, p < 0.0001, and p = 0.0004, respectively). In the multivariate analysis, tumor invasion depth (pT3, 4), lymph node metastasis (pN2, 3), preoperative Prognostic Nutrition Index (< 45), postoperative complications (≥ G3), and severe WL were independent prognostic factors for CSS (hazard ratio [HR] 2.5, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.7-3.7; HR 1.6, 95% CI 1.1-2.4; HR 1.9, 95% CI 1.3-2.8; HR 1.6, 95% CI 1.1-2.4; and HR 2.7, 95% CI 1.7-4.2, respectively). In a multivariate analysis of risk factors leading to severe WL, thoracotomy (VATS) and postoperative MAX CRP (high) were independent risk factors (odds ratio [OR 0.48, 95% CI 0.24-0.97; OR 1.9, 95% CI 1.0-3.5). CONCLUSION Early PWL would be a useful marker of poor cancer prognosis in EC patients. Highly inflammatory conditions due to surgical invasion and postoperative complications may contribute to early PWL.

Abstract
Background Esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) is one of the most severe cancers and is characterized by chemotherapy resistance and poor prognosis associated with epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT). In a previous study, a low mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) copy number was associated with poorer prognosis and induced EMT in ESCC. However, the detailed mechanism related to mtDNA copy number and EMT is unclear. The aim of this study was to clarify the mechanism by which a change in mtDNA copy number contributes to EMT and to examine treatment of chemotherapy resistance in ESCC. Methods The association between low mtDNA copy number and chemotherapy resistance was investigated using specimens from 88 patients who underwent surgery after neoadjuvant chemotherapy. Then, the mtDNA content of human ESCC cell lines, TE8 and TE11, was depleted by knockdown of mitochondrial transcription factor A expression. The present study focused on modulation of mitochondrial membrane potential (MMP) and DNA methylation as the mechanisms by which mtDNA copy number affects EMT. mRNA and protein expression, chemotherapy sensitivity, proliferation, MMP and DNA methylation were evaluated, and in vitro and in vivo assays were conducted to clarify these mechanisms. Results ESCC patients with decreased mtDNA copy number who underwent R0 resection after neoadjuvant chemotherapy had significantly worse pathological response and recurrence-free survival. Additionally, low mtDNA copy number was associated with resistance to chemotherapy in vitro and in vivo. mtDNA controlled MMP, and MMP depolarization induced EMT. Depletion of mtDNA and low MMP induced DNA methylation via a DNA methylation transcription factor (DNMT), and a DNMT inhibitor suppressed EMT and improved chemotherapy sensitivity in mtDNA-depleted ESCC cells, as shown by in vitro and in vivo assays. Conclusion This study showed that decreased mtDNA copy number induced EMT via modulation of MMP and DNA methylation in ESCC. Therapeutic strategies increasing mtDNA copy number and DNMT inhibitors may be effective in preventing EMT and chemosensitivity resistance.

Abstract
Background: Perioperative fluid balance is an important indicator in the management of esophageal cancer patients who undergo esophagectomy. However, the association between perioperative fluid balance and postoperative complications after minimally invasive esophagectomy (MIE) remains unclear. Methods: This study included 115 patients with thoracic esophageal squamous cell cancer who underwent MIE between January 2018 and January 2020. We retrospectively evaluated the association between perioperative fluid balance from during surgery to postoperative day (POD) 2, and postoperative complications. Results: The patients were divided into lower group and higher group based on the median fluid balance during surgery and at POD 1 and POD 2. We found that the higher group at POD 1 (≥3000 mL) was the most important indicator of postoperative complications, such as acute pneumonia within 7 days after surgery, and anastomotic leakage (p = 0.029, p = 0.024, respectively). Moreover, the higher group at POD 1 was a significant independent factor for acute postoperative pneumonia by multivariate analysis (OR: 3.270, 95% CI: 1.077–9.929, p = 0.037). Conclusion: This study showed that fluid overload at POD 1 had a negative influence on postoperative complications in patients with esophageal cancer. The fluid balance must be strictly controlled during the early postoperative management of patients undergoing esophageal cancer surgery.

Abstract
PURPOSE Pancreatic fistula is a severe complication after laparoscopic distal gastrectomy (LDG). We previously evaluated the pancreas-left gastric artery angle (PLA) as a risk indicator for developing a pancreatic fistula after LDG. This study evaluated the incidence of pancreatic fistula with robotic distal gastrectomy (RDG) in comparison to LDG from the view of the PLA. MATERIALS AND METHODS An association between the PLA and the incidence of pancreatic fistula in 165 patients who underwent either RDG (n=45) or LDG (n=120) was investigated retrospectively. RESULTS RDG patients had significantly lower drain amylase values (postoperative day 2) than LDG patients. As opposed to LDG patients, drain amylase values were similar for patients with small (PLA <62 degrees) and large (PLA ≥62 degrees) PLA in RDG patients. CONCLUSION Robotic surgery may reduce the risk of postoperative pancreatic fistula in patients with a small PLA.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To evaluate pathological response to NAC in metastatic LNs, and assess its clinical prognostic significance in patients with EC. SUMMARY OF BACKGROUND DATA The pathological response to preoperative treatment is commonly evaluated in the PT. However, LN metastases strongly correlate with systemic micro-metastases. Thus, pathological evaluation of LN response could more accurately predict prognosis in EC patients undergoing NAC before surgery. METHODS We enrolled 371 consecutive patients who underwent triplet NAC followed by surgery for EC between January 2010 and December 2016. Pathological LN regression grade was defined by the proportion of viable tumor area within the whole tumor bed area for all metastatic LNs: grade I, >50%; II, 10%-50%; III, <10%; and IV, 0%. We analyzed the correlation of grade with clinico-pathological parameters. RESULTS Among 319 patients with clinically positive LNs, pathological LN regression grades were I/II/III/IV in 115/51/58/95 patients, and 191 patients (59.9%) showed discordance between the PT and LN pathological regression grades. LN regression grade significantly correlated with cN positive number, ypTNM, lymphovascular invasion, and clinical/pathological PT response. Multivariate analysis for recurrence-free survival revealed that LN regression grade [hazard ratio (HR) = 2.25, P < 0.001], ypT (HR = 1.65, P = 0.005), and ypT (HR = 1.62, P = 0.004) were independent prognostic factors, but not pathological PT regression grade (P = 0.67). CONCLUSIONS Compared to PT response, pathological LN response better predicted long-term survival in EC patients who received NAC plus curative surgery.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Outcomes of salvage surgery after failed definitive chemoradiation (CRT) for esophageal cancer have been well defined. However, only a few studies have focused on salvage esophagectomy for recurrent disease after CRT. METHODS In 227 patients with esophageal cancer who underwent salvage esophagectomy after definitive CRT, consisting of 116 patients who underwent esophagectomy for persistent disease (the persistent group) and 111 patients who underwent esophagectomy for recurrent disease (the recurrent group), the short- and long-term outcomes were investigated. RESULTS The rates of any postoperative complication were similar between the groups (49.1% in the persistent group vs. 49.5% in the recurrent group, p = 0.951), although there was a higher rate of anastomotic leakage in the recurrent group (p = 0.027). Thirty-day mortality was also similar between the groups (1.7% in the persistent group vs. 0.9% in the recurrent group, p = 0.587). The 3-year and 5-year overall survival rates were 33.7% and 28.0% in the persistent group and 48.7% and 41.7% in the recurrent group, respectively (p = 0.0175). In the recurrent group, clinically nodal status before CRT as well as pathologically nodal status and time to relapse were identified as independent prognostic factors. In the persistent group, pT and resection margin were identified as independent factors associated with survival. CONCLUSIONS The present study showed that salvage surgery for recurrent disease can provide acceptable short- and long-term outcomes. Considering clinically and pathologically nodal status and time to relapse, adjuvant therapy might be offered for patients who underwent salvage esophagectomy for recurrent disease after definitive CRT.

Abstract
Background Real-world evidence on the preference for and effectiveness of third- or later-line (3L +) monotherapy for HER2-positive gastric cancer is limited in Japan. This study evaluated the utility of nivolumab, irinotecan, and trifluridine/tipiracil (FTD/TPI) monotherapy as 3L + treatment in Japanese patients with HER2-positive gastric/gastroesophageal junction (G/GEJ) cancer who were previously treated with trastuzumab. Methods In this multicenter, retrospective, observational study (20 centers), data of eligible patients were extracted from medical records (September 22, 2017–March 31, 2020), with follow-up until June 30, 2020. Outcomes included overall survival (OS), real-world progression-free survival (rwPFS), time to treatment failure (TTF), objective response rate (ORR; complete response [CR] + partial response [PR]), and disease control rate (DCR). Results Of 127 enrolled patients, the overall analysis population comprised 117 patients (median [range] age, 71 [38–89] years). The most commonly prescribed 3L + monotherapy was nivolumab (n = 100), followed by irinotecan (n = 12) and FTD/TPI (n = 5). The median (95% confidence interval [CI]) OS, rwPFS, and TTF were 6.2 (4.5–8.0), 1.9 (1.5–2.3), and 1.8 (1.5–2.2) months, respectively, at median (range) 150 (25–1007) days of follow-up. The ORR (CR + PR) and DCR were 9.0% (1% + 8%) and 32.0%, respectively. Factors such as higher neutrophil–lymphocyte ratio (≥ 2.54), Glasgow prognostic score (≥ 1), Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group performance status (ECOG PS; ≥ 2), and hepatic metastasis significantly impacted OS. Conclusions The observed OS in this study for HER2-positive G/GEJ cancer was shorter than that reported previously, suggesting that the effectiveness of nivolumab, irinotecan, or FTD/TPI as 3L + therapy may be limited.

Abstract
Surgical plume (SP) carries biological risks such as virus transmission. An evacuation system can remove SP from the surgical field, but is it safe to release evacuated gas into the operating room (OR) atmosphere? We examined this using a commercially available evacuator equipped with a filter under a laparoscopic porcine surgery model. SP was generated by activating an electrocautery or ultrasonic scalpel on the surface of the liver, and we evaluated whether DNA fragments derived from porcine tissue were present in the exhausted gas from the evacuation system into the atmosphere. DNA fragments were detected in the inlet gas of the evacuation system, while it was not detected in the outlet gas. As far as pathogen transmission via SP in the abdominal cavity is concerned, if the smoke evacuator ensures filter adsorption, it seems that there is little risk in releasing the suction gas into the atmosphere in the OR.

Abstract
277 Background: The real-world effectiveness of third- or later-line (3L+) therapies in patients (pts) with HER2-positive gastric cancer remains unknown. We report a multicenter, retrospective, observational study at 20 centers in Japan to investigate the outcomes of 3L+ therapy in pts with HER2-positive advanced gastric/gastroesophageal junction (G/GEJ) cancer previously receiving trastuzumab (UMIN000040853). Methods: Pts aged ≥20 years with HER2-positive advanced G/GEJ cancer who were previously treated with trastuzumab and newly initiated on nivolumab, irinotecan, or trifluridine/tipiracil monotherapy as 3L+ therapy (Sep 2017 to Mar 2020) were evaluated for overall survival (OS), progression-free survival (PFS), duration of response (DOR), time to treatment failure (TTF), objective response rate (ORR), and disease control rate (DCR). An exploratory analysis for factors affecting OS was conducted using a multivariate Cox regression model, with HER2 status as a covariate. Results: The overall analysis population was 117 pts (median: age, 71 years; number of prior treatment lines, 2; days since the initiation of first-line treatment, 431 days). Median (95% confidence interval) OS, PFS, and TTF were 6.2 months (4.5–8.0), 1.9 months (1.5–2.3), and 1.8 months (1.5–2.2), respectively, at a median follow-up of 150 days. Outcomes by treatment groups are shown in the Table. ORR and DCR in 100 pts with evaluable target lesions were 9.0% and 32.0%, respectively, and median DOR was 8.4 months. A higher neutrophil-lymphocyte ratio (≥2.540), Glasgow prognostic score (≥1), ECOG PS (≥2), and hepatic metastasis significantly impacted OS. Conclusions: The real-world effectiveness of 3L+ therapies was limited in this study. New HER2 treatment agent is expected to improve outcomes in pts with HER2-positive G/GEJ cancer.[Table: see text]

Abstract
A male in his forties experiencing epigastric pain visited our hospital and was diagnosed with a large gastric gastrointestinal stromal tumor(GIST)invading pancreatic tail with synchronous multiple liver metastases. We diagnosed as unresectable and started imatinib. Two weeks later, tumor necrosis and penetration were occurred. We performed partial gastrectomy with pancreatic tail resection and splenectomy. During the surgery, we also performed radiofrequency ablation(RFA)on all the liver metastases. After surgery, we immediately resumed imatinib. Four years after surgery, metastatic lesion in liver S4/8 was detected, RFA was performed and Imatinib was continued. Eight years after surgery, a recurrent metastatic lesion of the liver coincident with the previous RFA site was detected. We performed a right hepatic lobectomy and he continued imatinib, Currently, 16 years after the first operation, he is alive under the imatinib continuation. This case demonstrates that the combination of surgery, RFA and imatinib can be effective for prolonging survival in patients with advanced gastric GIST with synchronous multiple liver metastases.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Various functions in elderly patients with esophageal cancer deteriorate easily and their quality of life can be adversely affected by treatment. The age groups covered in previous studies are wide, and the impact on the elderly individuals is unknown. This study examined changes in quality of life scores after preoperative chemotherapy to clarify aspects of physical, psychological, and social quality of life in elderly patients with esophageal cancer. METHODS Thirty-six patients aged over 65 years, who were scheduled to undergo preoperative chemotherapy for esophageal cancer surgery, were enrolled. The survey questionnaire comprised the EORTC QLQ-C30 Japanese Language Version, EORTC QLQ-OES 18 Japanese Language Version, and G8. The surveys were conducted before chemotherapy (pre-CT) and after chemotherapy (post-CT). RESULTS In the functional scale of QLQ-C 30, physical functioning decreased significantly, while emotional functioning increased significantly post-CT (p = 0.021, p = 0.030, respectively). Global health status was not changed. In QLQ-OES18, the mean symptom scale score decreased significantly for dysphagia, trouble swallowing saliva, choking, eating, reflux, and pain post-CT (p = 0.014, p = 0.034, p = 0.033, p = 0.022, p = 0.026, p = 0.016, respectively). The mean G8 score decreased significantly from 11.7 to 10.7 (p = 0.022) post-CT, but the proportion of patients with dysfunction decreased. CONCLUSIONS Quality of life scores of elderly patients with esophageal cancer who received preoperative chemotherapy decreased in terms of physical function but improved in terms of esophageal cancer symptoms and mental function. Our results suggest that alleviation of symptoms contributed to the improvements in mental health.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The introduction of molecularly targeted drugs, including imatinib, has greatly improved the prognosis of gastrointestinal stromal tumor (GIST), and based on the different response image, the methods of response evaluation have been established for GISTs. Furthrmore, the best response evaluation using them has been reported to be associated with progression-free survival (PFS) in imatinib treatment. However, since it is more important to predict the clinical outcomes of imatinib treatment in "early treatment phase", new predicting factor in earlier stage is desired to work out the whole strategy of each patient. Early morphological change (EMC) was previously reported as a predictive marker for molecularly targeted drugs in metastatic colorectal cancer. The purpose of the present study was to verify the efficacy of EMC in predicting the outcome in patients with GIST receiving imatinib at early evaluation. METHODS We retrospectively reviewed 66 patients. EMC in computed tomography (CT) image was evaluated, and the patients were categorized into two groups: active MR (morphological response) (+) group and active MR (-) group. We investigated the association between the presence of active MR and clinical outcomes. RESULTS Forty-five patients had active MR ( +). The median progression-free survival (PFS) in patients with/without active MR was 49/23 months (P = 0.0039). CONCLUSION The evaluation criteria based on EMC could be a sensitive method to predict the clinical outcome of imatinib treatment for patients with unresectable GIST.

Abstract
AIM Osteoporosis in patients after gastrectomy is increasing with the aging of gastric cancer patients. Bisphosphonates are effective treatments for osteoporosis; however, their safety or efficacy in postgastrectomy patients has not been established. The purpose of this multicenter prospective intervention study was to investigate the impact of monthly minodronate on osteoporosis after gastrectomy. METHODS Of the 261 enrolled gastric cancer patients, 164 patients were diagnosed with osteoporosis based on criteria of the Japan Society of Osteoporosis. They were randomly assigned 1:1 to groups treated with active vitamin D (VD group) or monthly minodronate (MIN group). The primary endpoint was changes in lumbar bone mineral density (L-BMD) 12 mo after the start of administration. The secondary endpoints were changes in bone metabolism markers, adverse events (AEs), or treatment completion rates. RESULTS There was no significant difference in patient background between the VD (n = 82) and MIN (n = 82) groups. In the MIN group, the increase in L-BMD was significantly higher than that in the VD group (4.52% vs 1.72%, P = .001), with a significant reduction in bone metabolism markers; blood NTX (-25.6% vs -1.6%, P < .01) and serum bone-specific alkaline phosphatase (-34.3% vs -20.1%, P < .01). AEs were observed in 26.8% and 9.3% of the patients and treatment completion rates were 77.5% and 89.3% in the MIN and VD groups, respectively. Serious AEs were not observed in either group. CONCLUSION This study demonstrated the safety and efficacy of monthly minodronate, suggesting that this treatment may be useful for osteoporosis after gastrectomy (UMIN000015517).

Abstract
PURPOSE To evaluate if nutritional supplements can attenuate postoperative catabolism in esophageal cancer patients after radical esophagectomy. METHODS We analyzed data prospectively from 30 patients who underwent curative esophagectomy for esophageal cancer between August and December, 2019. We compared postoperative nitrogen balance and changes in body composition between patients who received protein-enhanced enteral feeds (PEF) or other enteral feeds (OF). RESULTS Postoperative enteral feeding was administered safely to all patients. The average nitrogen balance was significantly higher in the PEF group than in the OF group on postoperative days (PODs) 3 (2.41 vs. - 1.50 g, P = 0.002), 4 (3.74 vs. - 0.08 g, P = 0.006), and 5 (3.27 vs. 0.11 g, P = 0.031). The cumulative nitrogen balance in the 7 days after surgery was significantly higher in the PEF group than in the OF group (6.12 vs. - 8.40 g, P = 0.025). The bodyweight loss and lean body mass loss on POD 14 were equivalent in the two groups (bodyweight loss 3.70 vs. 2.87%, P = 0.25; lean body mass loss, 4.34 vs. 1.91%, P = 0.33). CONCLUSIONS PEF improved the postoperative nitrogen balance significantly in patients who underwent esophagectomy.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Mutations in p53, identified in 90% of oesophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC), are associated with unfavourable prognosis and chemo-resistance. APR-246 induces apoptosis by restoring transcriptional ability of mutant p53, and may be a promising therapeutic agent to overcome chemo-resistance in ESCC. METHODS In ESCC cell lines differing in p53 status, we performed in vitro cell viability and apoptosis assays, evaluated reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation, and assessed signal changes by western blot after APR-246 administration with/without chemo-agent. Antitumour effects and signal changes were evaluated in in vivo experiments using xenograft and patient-derived xenograft (PDX) mouse models. RESULTS APR-246 administration induced significant apoptosis by upregulating p73 and Noxa via ROS induction in ESCC cell lines harbouring p53 missense mutations. Moreover, APR-246 plus chemotherapy exerted combined antitumour effects in ESCC with p53 missense mutations. This effect was also mediated through enhanced ROS activity, leading to massive apoptosis via upregulation of p73 and Noxa. These findings were confirmed by xenograft and PDX models with p53 mutant ESCC. CONCLUSION APR-246 strongly induced apoptosis by inducing ROS activity and p73-Noxa signalling, specifically in ESCC with p53 missense mutation. This antitumour effect was further enhanced by combination with 5-FU, which we first confirmed in ESCC preclinical model.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To compare short-term outcomes between two- vs. three courses of neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC) to clarify the optimal treatment for esophageal squamous cell cancer (ESCC) in a multicenter, randomized, phase II trial. BACKGROUND An optimal number of NAC cycles remains to be established for locally advanced ESCC. METHODS Patients with locally advanced ESCC were randomly assigned to either two (N = 91) or three (N = 89) courses of DCF (70 mg/m2 intravenous docetaxel and 70 mg/m2 intravenous cisplatin on day 1, and a continuous 700 mg/m2 fluorouracil infusion for 5 days) every 3 weeks followed by surgery. We compared the two groups for perioperative parameters, adverse events, and the response to NAC. RESULTS The two- and three-course groups showed similar completion rates and overall NAC dose reductions. Although the two-course group showed significantly lower overall grades 3-4 leukopenia and anemia compared to the three-course group, the two groups had similar overall toxicity rates. Postoperative complications were not significantly different between the two groups, except arrhythmia (13 vs. 0%, P = 0.0007). Only two postoperative in-hospital deaths occurred in the three-course group, due to sepsis following severe pneumonia. Compared to the two-course group, the three-course group was associated with a significantly better clinical response (42.9 vs. 65.2%, P = 0.0027) and a relatively higher rate of pathological complete response (9.1 vs. 15.3%, P = 0.212). CONCLUSION Both two- and three-course DCF regimens in the NAC setting seemed to be equally feasible in locally advanced ESCC patients. Additional DCF courses led to a better NAC response without increasing the incidence of adverse events or postoperative morbidity.
