Abstract
BACKGROUND Patients with rectal cancer who underwent lateral pelvic node dissection might be at a higher risk of postoperative complications derived from technical complexity. However, little is known regarding the long-term complications after lateral pelvic node dissection. OBJECTIVES The study aimed to investigate the long-term complications of preoperative chemoradiotherapy, followed by total mesorectal excision with lateral pelvic node dissection for locally advanced rectal cancers. DESIGN A retrospective analysis of a prospectively collected database. SETTINGS This study was conducted in a tertiary cancer center. PATIENTS Patients with rectal cancer who underwent total mesorectal excision with lateral pelvic node dissection after preoperative chemoradiotherapy between 2011 and 2019 were analyzed. All operations were performed via a laparoscopic or robotic approach. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES Long-term complications were defined as adverse events that persisted or newly appeared ≥90 days after surgery and could be related to the surgery. RESULTS A total of 164 patients underwent total mesorectal excision with lateral pelvic node dissection after preoperative chemoradiotherapy. Short-term and long-term complication rates were 36.0% and 36.6%, respectively. Lymphocele was the most common long-term complication (17.7% of patients), and 11.6% had anastomotic leakage with chronic sinus. Of the patients with long-term complications, 20.7% of patients needed readmission for treatment. Of the 29 patients with lymphocele, 13 (41.0%) experienced spontaneous absorption and 11 (37.9%) required surgical or percutaneous catheter drainage or antibiotics use. Multivariate analysis showed pathologic pelvic node metastases ( p = 0.008), and a higher number of unilateral harvested pelvic nodes ( p = 0.001) were significantly associated with long-term complications. At the last follow-up (median duration of 43 months), 15.9% of patients had unresolved complications. LIMITATIONS The retrospective design. CONCLUSIONS Patients undergoing lateral pelvic node dissection experienced a higher frequency of long-term complications, but half of them had asymptomatic lymphoceles, most of which resolved spontaneously. However, further efforts should be paid to reduce anticipated complications related to lateral pelvic node dissection. See Video Abstract .

Sin embargo, se sabe poco sobre las complicaciones a largo plazo después de la disección de los ganglios linfáticos pélvicos laterales.OBJETIVOS:Investigar las complicaciones a largo plazo de la quimiorradioterapia preoperatoria, seguida de escisión mesorrectal total con disección de los ganglios linfáticos pélvicos laterales contra el cáncer de recto localmente avanzado.DISEÑO:Un análisis retrospectivo de una base de datos recopilada prospectivamente.AJUSTES:Este estudio se llevó a cabo en un centro oncológico terciario.PACIENTES:Se analizaron pacientes con cáncer de recto que se sometieron a escisión mesorrectal total con disección de ganglios linfáticos pélvicos laterales después de quimiorradioterapia preoperatoria entre 2011 y 2019. Todas las operaciones se realizaron mediante abordaje laparoscópico o robótico.PRINCIPALES MEDIDAS DE RESULTADO:Las complicaciones a largo plazo se definieron como eventos adversos que persistieron o aparecieron recientemente ≥ 90 días después de la cirugía y podrían estar relacionados con la cirugía.RESULTADOS:Un total de 164 pacientes se sometieron a escisión mesorrectal total con disección de los ganglios linfáticos pélvicos laterales después de quimiorradioterapia preoperatoria. Las tasas de complicaciones a corto y largo plazo fueron del 36,0% y 36,6%, respectivamente. El linfocele fue la complicación a largo plazo más común (17,7% de los pacientes) y el 11,6% tuvo fuga anastomótica con seno crónico. De los pacientes con complicaciones a largo plazo, el 20,7% de los pacientes necesitaron reingreso para recibir tratamiento. De 29 pacientes con linfocele, 13 (41,0%) experimentaron absorción espontánea y 11 (37,9%) requirieron drenaje quirúrgico o percutáneo con catéter o uso de antibióticos. El análisis multivariado mostró metástasis patológicas en los ganglios linfáticos pélvicos ( p = 0,008) y un mayor número de ganglios pélvicos extraídos unilateralmente ( p = 0,001) se asociaron significativamente con complicaciones a largo plazo. En el último seguimiento (mediana de 43 meses), el 15,9% de los pacientes tuvieron complicaciones no resueltas.LIMITACIÓN:El diseño retrospectivo.CONCLUSIONES:Los pacientes sometidos a disección de ganglios pélvicos linfáticos laterales experimentaron una mayor frecuencia de complicaciones a largo plazo, pero la mitad de ellos tuvieron linfoceles asintomáticos, la mayoría de los cuales se resolvieron espontáneamente. Sin embargo, se deben realizar mayores esfuerzos para reducir las complicaciones previstas relacionadas con la disección de los ganglios linfáticos pélvicos laterales.

Abstract
BACKGROUND It is unknown whether the da Vinci single-port system performs similarly to the previous multi-port system during complicated procedures, such as rectal cancer surgery. Therefore, we compared the short-term clinical outcomes of single-port and multi-port robotic total mesorectal excision for the treatment of rectal cancer. METHODS This retrospective study reviewed 128 patients who underwent robotic total mesorectal excision between July 2020 and June 2022, of whom 84 (42 each: single-port versus multi-port) were included in the propensity score-matched cohort. Perioperative and pathologic outcomes were compared between groups. RESULTS Median tumor height was similar between groups (single-port versus multi-port, 5.9 ± 2.1 vs 5.6 ± 1.8 cm, P = .719). Preoperative chemoradiotherapy was performed equally. The total operative time was less (160.0 ± 42.2 minutes vs 199.6 ± 78.6 minutes, P = .005), the total length of incision was shorter (4.0 ±0.3 vs 5.4 ± 0.7 cm, P = .003), postoperative hospital stay was shorter (6.2 ±1.7 vs 7.2 ±2.8 days, P = .050), and C-reactive protein levels on postoperative day 3 trended to be lower (7.3 ± 4.7 vs 8.9 ± 5.6 mg/L, P = .096) in the single-port group, compared with the multi-port group. Postoperative complications did not differ between groups (single-port versus multi-port, 11.9% vs 16.6%, P = .864). Anastomotic leakage occurred in 1 and 2 patients in the single-port and multi-port groups, respectively. The circumferential resection margins were positive in 1 patient in the multi-port group. CONCLUSION The perioperative outcomes of single-port robotic total mesorectal excision were comparable to those of multi-port robotic TME. The single-port robot can be considered a surgical option for treating rectal cancer.

Abstract
Purpose The da Vinci single-port (SP) system has been used in various surgical fields, including colorectal surgery. However, limited experience has been reported on its safety and feasibility. This study aims to evaluate the short-term outcomes of SP robotic surgery for the treatment of rectal cancer compared with multiport (MP) robotic surgery. Methods Rectal cancer patients who underwent curative resection in 2020 were reviewed. A total of 43 patients underwent robotic total mesorectal excision (TME), of which 26 (13 in each group, SPTME vs. MPTME) were included in the case-matched cohort for analysis. Intraoperative and postoperative outcomes and pathological results were compared between the 2 groups. Results Median tumor height was similar between the 2 groups (SPTME vs. MPTME: 5.9 cm [range, 2.2-9.6 cm] vs. 6.7 cm [range, 3.4-10.0 cm], P = 0.578). Preoperative chemoradiotherapy was equally performed (38.5%). The median estimated blood loss was less (20.0 mL [range, 5.0-20.0 mL] vs. 30.0 mL [range, 20.0-30.0 mL], P = 0.020) and the median hospital stay was shorter (7 days [range, 6-8 days] vs. 8 days [range, 7-9 days], P = 0.055) in the SPTME group. Postoperative complications did not differ (SPTME vs. MPTME: 7.7% vs. 23.1%, P = 0.587). One patient in the SPTME group and 3 in the MPTME group experienced anastomotic leakage. Conclusion SP robotic TME showed perioperative outcomes similar to MP robotic TME. The SP robotic system can be considered a surgical option for the treatment of rectal cancer. Further prospective randomized trials with larger cohorts are required.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The da Vinci Single-port (SP) system is designed to facilitate single-incision robotic surgery in a narrow space. We developed a new procedure of intersphincteric resection (ISR) using the SP platform and evaluated the technical safety and feasibility of this procedure for the treatment of very low rectal cancer. MATERIALS AND METHODS Eleven rectal cancer patients who underwent SP robotic ISR between August 2020 and July 2021 were included. Patients' clinical characteristics, operative and pathologic findings of the patients were retrospectively analyzed. RESULTS The median tumor height was 3 cm (range, 2-4 cm). A single docking was performed, and the median docking time was 3 min 10 sec (range, 2 min 50 sec-3 min 30 sec). The median total operation time was 210 min (range, 150-280 min), and the median time of pelvic dissection was 57 min (range, 45-68 min). All patients presented with negative distal resection margins [median 1 cm (range, 0.5-2.0 cm)], and only one patient had less than 1mm of circumferential resection margin (0.9 mm). CONCLUSIONS Our initial experience suggests that SP robotic ISR is safe and feasible.

Abstract
Purpose Although its efficacy is uncertain, an intraoperative air leak test (ALT) is commonly used to detect mechanical defects following bowel anastomosis. This study aimed to evaluate the efficacy of ALT to detect anastomotic leakage (AL) following rectal excision. Methods We reviewed our database for patients with rectal cancers who had undergone curative surgery between January 2012 and January 2018. Patients were grouped according to whether or not an ALT was performed. Propensity score analyses were performed to compare outcomes for groups in a 1:1 case-matched cohort. Results In total, 1,191 patients underwent rectal excision; 438 (219 in each group) formed the case-matched cohort for analysis. The protective stoma rate was 16.0% and 14.6% in the ALT and the no-ALT groups, respectively (P = 0.791). In the ALT group, 2 patients (0.9%) showed a positive result and were treated with rectal tube drainage, resulting in no leakage. There was no significant difference in postoperative AL rate between the groups (ALT group: 4.6% vs. no-ALT group: 4.1%, P > 0.999). Conclusion ALT played a minimal role in detecting AL following rectal excision. Further studies are warranted to validate our results and clarify whether AL can be prevented with ALT or alternative methods.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
A limitation of the current guidelines of the timing of invasive coronary angiography (ICA) for patients with non-ST-segment elevation (NSTE) acute coronary syndrome is based on randomization time. So far, no study has reported the clinical outcomes of invasive strategy timing based on the time of symptom onset. Herein, we aimed to investigate the effect of invasive strategy timing from the time of symptom onset on the 3-year clinical outcomes of patients with NSTE myocardial infarction (MI).
Methods and results
Among 13,104 patients from the Korea Acute Myocardial Infarction Registry-National Institutes of Health, we evaluated 5,856 patients with NSTEMI. The patients were categorized according to symptom-to-catheter (StC) time (<48 h and ≥48 h). The primary outcome was 3-year all-cause mortality, and the secondary outcome was a 3-year composite of all-cause mortality, recurrent MI, and hospitalization for heart failure. Overall, 3,919 (66.9%) patients were classified into the StC time <48 h group. This group had lower all-cause mortality than the StC time ≥48 h group (7.3% vs. 13.4%, p<0.001). The continuous association of StC time and risk of primary and secondary endpoints showed shorter StC time (reference: 48 h), and lower adjusted hazard ratio reduction was observed. In multivariable analysis, independent predictors of delayed ICA were older age, non-specific symptoms, no use of emergency medical services, no ST-segment deviation, chronic kidney disease, and Global Registry of Acute Coronary Events score >140.
Conclusion
Early invasive strategy based on the StC time improves all-cause mortality in patients with NSTEMI.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
There is little data about clinical role of intravascular ultrasound (IVUS)-guided Percutaneous (PCI) in the setting of ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI).
Methods
From 2005 to 2018, a total of 8,129 patients who underwent PCI with STEMI were investigated from the Korea Acute Myocardial Infarction Registry-National Institute of Health database. Patients with Non-ST segment elevation myocardial infarction, cardiogenic shock, bare metal stent implantation, thrombolytic treatment, and coronary artery bypass graft surgery were excluded. We categorized patients into two groups based on the treatment strategy: IVUS-guided PCI group (n=1,544), and coronary angiography guidance (CAG)-guided PCI group (n=6,585). The primary endpoint was composite of major adverse cardiovascular (MACE), including, cardiac death, myocardial infarction (MI), repeat target vessel revascularization (TVR) and stent thrombosis (ST).
Results
IVUS-guided PCI was performed in 19% patients (1544/8129). After propensity score matching, there were no statistically difference in the rate of cardiac death (0% in IVUS vs. 0.26% in CAG, p=0.947), MI (2.01% vs. 2.01%, p=0.408), TVR (1.23% vs. 0.91%, p=0.131), ST (0.32% vs. 0.45%, p=0.828) and composite of MACE at 1 year between two groups (2.01% vs. 2.40%, p=0.843). Independent risk factors for MACE were diabetes mellitus and multi-vessel disease, but not IVUS-guided PCI (HR 1.167, 95% CI, 0.896–1.520, p=0.251).
Conclusion
This study suggests that routine usage of IVUS in the setting of STEMI may not be necessary. Large-scaled random study will be needed for further evaluation.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
There is some debate on whether or not there is a gender difference is present between current smoking and cardiovascular disease.
Purpose
We decide to evaluate the impact of sex difference on the 2-year clinical outcomes in Korean acute myocardial infarction (AMI) patients who currently smoke and who underwent percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) with drug-eluting stents (DES).
Methods
The data of this study was obtained from the Korea Acute Myocardial Infarction (KAMIR) registry. More than fifty high-volume universites or community hospitals with facilities for primary PCI and onsite cardiac surgery participated in this KAMIR registry. A total of 12565 current smoker AMI patients were enrolled and divided into the male (n=11767, 93.6%) or female (n=798, 6.4%) group. The clinical endpoint was the occurrence of major adverse cardiac events (MACE) defined as all-cause death, recurrent myocardial infarction (re-MI), and total repeat revascularization.
Results
Before risk adjustment, the cumulative incidences of MACE (7.2% vs. 10.0%, hazard ratio [HR], 1.419; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.125–1.790; P=0.003), all-cause death (HR, 1.988; 95% CI, 1.417–2.789; P<0.001), and re-MI (HR, 1.885; 95% CI, 1.154–3.078; P=0.011) were significantly higher in the female group compared with the male group. However, after adjustment the cumulative incidences of MACE (adjusted HR, 1.047; 95% CI, 0.756–1.450; P=0.782), all-cause death, re-MI, total repeat revascularization, TLR, TVR, and non-TVR were similar between the two groups.

Abstract
Abstract
Background/Introduction
Although optimal revascularization strategy in patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction with multivessel coronary artery disease (MVD) was well established, there are few studies which investigated optimal revascularization strategy in non-ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEM) with MVD.
Purpose
We investigated 2-year clinical outcomes according to strategy of revascularization in patients with NSTEMI and MVD.
Methods
Between November 2011 and October 2015, a total of 2474 patients with NSTEMI and MVD who underwent successful percutaneous coronary intervention were analyzed from the Korea Acute Myocardial Infarction Registry-National Institute of Health (staged 308, one-time 1043 and culprit-only 1123 patients). We did not include patients with left main disease and cardiogenic shock. Primary endpoint was major adverse cardiac events (MACE: the composite of cardiac death, myocardial infarction [MI] or target-vessel revascularization [TVR]) during 2-year follow-up (median 737 days [interquartile range 705–764]). We also analyzed the of all-cause mortality, stroke and non-TVR.
Results
Baseline characteristics such as age, gender, and prevalence of atherosclerotic risk factors between multivessel revascularization (MVR; staged or one-time revascularization) and CVR were similar. There was also no difference in symptom to balloon time in 2 groups. MACE occurred in 305 patients (12.3%) during 2-year follow-up. MVR could reduce incidence of MACE (10.2% vs. 14.9%; adjusted hazard ratio [HR] 1.50 for CVR, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.20–1.88, p<0.001), all-cause death (8.4% vs. 12.1%; adjusted HR 1.45 for CVR, 95% CI 1.13–1.87, p=0.003) and non-TVR (1,9% vs. 7.0%; adjusted HR 3.99 for CVR, 95% CI 2.55–6.27, p<0.001). There was no difference in incidence of stroke between MVR and CVR. We also analyzed same analysis between staged and one-time revascularization. Complete revascularization was more achieved in one-time revascularization group compared to staged revascularization group (62.0% vs. 76.1%, p<0.001). In multivariate Cox-regression analysis, staged revascularization was not associated with improved clinical outcomes in terms of MACE (HR 0.74, 95% CI 0.50–1.09, p=0.126), all-cause death (HR 1.07, 95% CI 0.69–1.68, p=0.759), stroke (HR 1.75, 95% CI 0.68–4.52, p=0.245) and non-TVR (HR 2.56, 95% CI 0.75–8.68, p=0.132). Analysis by propensity score matching and inverse probability of treatment weighting did not significantly affect the results.
Conclusions
MVR reduced 2-year adverse cardiac events in patients with NSTEMI and MVD compared to CVR. However, staged revascularization was not superior to one-time revascularization for reducing MACE among NSTEMI patients with MVD who received MVR.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Pulmonary hypertension (PH) is a rarely reported complication of multiple myeloma (MM). PH of MM is usually mild to moderate and can be secondary to a variety of conditions, including left ventricular dysfunction, diastolic dysfunction, chronic heart failure, treatment-related toxicity, thrombophilic condition and precapillary involvement. However, only few reports regarding PH in MM incidence and prognosis exist up to now.
Purpose
The purpose of this study was to investigate the risk factors of transthoracic echocardiography-defined PH and its impact on clinical outcome in patients with MM.
Methods
A total of 277 MM patients was included and divided into 2 groups–those non-pulmonary hypertension (PH) or those with PH, based on the results of the transthoracic echocardiography (TTE); PH group (n=143, 60.9±9.2 years, 68 males) versus non-PH group (n=134, 55.9±11.5 years, 72 males). We analyzed propensity score matching and multiple imputation method were used to deal with the missing data in echocardiographic characteristics.
Results
During the follow-up period (median 618 days), all-cause death occurred in 79 (28.5%) patients and 41 patients (14.8%) died from cardiovascular causes (including acute decompensated heart failure, fatal MI, sudden cardiac arrest). In the Kaplan-Meier survival analysis of crude population and propensity-matched population, cumulative overall survival and cardiovascular death (CVD)-free survival were significantly lower in the PH group than in the non-PH group (p<0.001). In propensity-matched population, estimated pulmonary artery pressure >35mmHg in TTE, congestive heart failure, and DM were significant independent predictors of all-cause death.
KM curves in MM stratified by PH
Conclusion
This study demonstrates that the presence of PH, congestive heart failure, and DM is an independent prognostic factor for all-cause death in MM patients with MM. These results highlight the risk associated cardiovascular disease in MM patients and emphasize that management strategies that prevent deterioration of cardiac function are essential.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Although European guideline recommends that statin should be given to all patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI), irrespective of cholesterol concentration, limited studies were focused on the long-term effects of statin therapy between ST-segment elevation MI (STEMI) and non-ST-segment elevation MI (NSTEMI).
Purpose
The authors conducted the study to compare the relative beneficial role of statin on 2-year major clinical outcomes between STEMI and NSTEMI in patients who underwent successful PCI with DES.
Methods
Finally, a total of 26317 AMI patients who underwent stent implantation and who were prescribed the statin were enrolled and they were separated into two groups; the STEMI group (n=15002) and the NSTEMI group (n=11315). The clinical endpoint was the occurrence of major adverse cardiac events (MACE) defined as all-cause death, recurrent myocardial infarction (re-MI), total coronary revascularization (target lesion revascularization [TLR], target vessel revascularization [TVR], non-TVR) during 2-year follow-up period.
Results
After propensity score-matched (PSM) analysis, two PSM groups (7746 pairs, n=15492, C-statistic = 0.766) were generated. In the total study population, the cumulative incidences of MACE, all-cause death, and cardiac death were significantly higher in the NSTEMI group. However, after PSM, the cumulative incidence of all-cause death (Hazard ratio, 1.386; 95% CI, 1.133–1.696; p=0.002) was significantly higher in the NSTEMI group. The cumulative incidences of MACE, cardiac death, re-MI, total revascularization, TLR, TVR, and non-TVR were similar between the two groups (Table 1).
Outcomes Cumulative Events at 2-year (%) Hazard Ratio (95% CI) p value STEMI NSTEMI Log-rank Propensity score matched patients MACE 532 (7.2) 584 (8.1) 0.092 1.106 (0.984–1.244) 0.092 All-cause death 163 (2.2) 224 (3.1) 0.001 1.386 (1.133–1.696) 0.002 Cardiac death 121 (1.5) 148 (2.0) 0.088 1.232 (0.969–1.566) 0.089 Re-MI 117 (1.6) 107 (1.5) 0.545 0.922 (0.710–1.199) 0.545 Total revascularization 291 (4.1) 307 (4.4) 0.422 1.068 (0.910–1.254) 0.423 TLR 92 (1.3) 89 (1.2) 0.880 0.978 (0.731–1.309) 0.880 TVR 173 (2.4) 184 (2.6) 0.478 1.078 (0.876–1.327) 0.478 Non-TVR 123 (1.7) 130 (1.9) 0.593 1.070 (0.836–1.369) 0.539
Conclusion
The mortality reduction capability of statin was more prominent in the STEMI group compared with the NSTEMI group.

Abstract
This study aimed to investigate the effect of statins for the treatment of depression in individuals with acute coronary syndrome (ACS). We used 1-year follow-up data of a 24-week double-blind, placebo-controlled trial of escitalopram and a naturalistic prospective observational cohort study. Of 446 participants with comorbid depressive disorders and ACS at baseline, 300 participated in a randomised escitalopram trial and the remaining 146 participated in a naturalistic observational study. The participants in the two studies were approached for a 1-year follow-up investigation. Treatment response rates, defined as a ⩾ 50% reduction in the Hamilton Depression Rating Scale (HAM-D) and Beck Depression Inventory (BDI) scores, were used as the outcome variables. In the escitalopram trial, both HAM-D and BDI response rates were highest in patients taking escitalopram and statins together and lowest in patients receiving neither medication. Logistic regression analyses revealed that statin use was significantly associated with higher response rates on both the HAM-D and BDI at 1 year, whereas no such associations were found for escitalopram. In the naturalistic observational study, the response rates at 1 year did not differ significantly by statin use. Instead, the HAM-D response rate was significantly higher in patients taking lipophilic statins than in those who did not. In conclusion, statins may be effective for the treatment of depression independent of medical status and escitalopram use, and they may potentiate the antidepressant action of serotonergic antidepressants in patients with ACS.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Depression is common after acute coronary syndrome (ACS) with adverse effects on prognosis. There is little evidence on whether depression treatment improves quality of life (QoL) in ACS patients. The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of co-morbid depression and its treatment on QoL in ACS. METHOD In total, 1152 patients were recruited at baseline, 2-14 weeks after a confirmed ACS episode, and 828 were followed 1 year thereafter. Of 446 baseline participants with co-morbid depressive disorders, 300 were randomized to a 24-week double blind trial of escitalopram or placebo, while the remaining 146 received medical treatment only (MTO). QoL was measured by the World Health Organization Quality of Life -Abbreviated form (WHOQOL-BREF). RESULTS At baseline, QoL was significantly lower in patients with co-morbid depressive disorder than those without. QoL improvement was significantly greater in those receiving escitalopram than those receiving placebo over the 24-week treatment period. In the 1-year follow-up, the better outcomes associated with escitalopram remained evident against both placebo and MTO. CONCLUSIONS Depression was significantly associated with worse QoL even in patients with recently developed ACS. Depression treatment was associated with QoL improvement in ACS patients in the 24-week treatment period, the effects of which extended to 1 year.

Abstract
Foam cell formation from macrophage is a major cause of atherosclerosis. An efficient macrophage-specific promoter is required for the targeting to macrophages. In this study, we develop a macrophage-specific synthetic promoter for the therapeutic application of adiponectin (APN), an antiatherogenic gene. Synthetic promoter-146 (SP146), registered on the NCBI website (http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/nuccore/DQ107383), was tested for promoter activities in two non-macrophage cell lines (293 T, HeLa) and a macrophage cell line (RAW264.7, bone marrow-derived macrophages). To enforce macrophage specificity, partial elements of p47(phox) including the PU.1 site with various lengths (-C1, -C2 and -C3) were inserted next to the synthetic promoters. SP146-C1 showed the highest specificity and efficacy in RAW264.7 cells and was selected for development of an APN-carrying macrophage-specific promoter. Green fluorescent protein (GFP)- or APN-expressing lentivirus under SP146-C1 (Lenti-SP-GFP or Lenti-SP-APN, respectively) showed the highest expression efficacy in RAW264.7 cells compared with the non-macrophage cell lines. APN overexpression in RAW264.7 cells successfully inhibited intracellular lipid accumulation, and atherosclerotic lesions and lipid accumulation were significantly reduced by Lenti-SP-APN in ApoE-/- atherosclerosis mice. In conclusion, the synthetic promoter SP146-C1, combined with a p47(phox) promoter element, was successfully developed to target macrophage, and macrophage-specific introduction of APN under SP146-C1 was shown to ameliorate the atherosclerotic pathology.

Abstract
Skeletal myogenesis is precisely regulated by multiple transcription factors. Previously, we demonstrated that enhancer of polycomb 1 (Epc1) induces skeletal muscle differentiation by potentiating serum response factor (SRF)-dependent muscle gene activation. Here, we report that an interacting partner of Epc1, ret finger protein (RFP), blocks skeletal muscle differentiation. Our findings show that RFP was highly expressed in skeletal muscles and was downregulated during myoblast differentiation. Forced expression of RFP delayed myoblast differentiation, whereas knockdown enhanced it. Epc1-induced enhancements of SRF-dependent multinucleation, transactivation of the skeletal α-actin promoter, binding of SRF to the serum response element, and muscle-specific gene induction were blocked by RFP. RFP interfered with the physical interaction between Epc1 and SRF. Muscles from rfp knockout mice (Rfp(-/-)) mice were bigger than those from wild-type mice, and the expression of SRF-dependent muscle-specific genes was upregulated. Myotube formation and myoblast differentiation were enhanced in Rfp(-/-) mice. Taken together, our findings highlight RFP as a novel regulator of muscle differentiation that acts by modulating the expression of SRF-dependent skeletal muscle-specific genes.

Abstract
Nucleic acids can be complexed with cationic polymer to form DNA nanoparticles (polyplex) which are then immobilized on the surface coated extracellular matrix protein (ECM), the process termed as reverse transfection. ECM-containing proteins provide a surface for cell attachment and sustain the release of polyplexes from their surface, thereby inducing transgene expression for prolonged period of time. Consequently, long-term expression of the desired protein can be achieved with the smaller amount of required DNA, as compared to bolus delivery. First of all, we investigated the different ECM components as a coating material and the range of optimal coating density in different ECM was examined for enhanced transfection to neighboring cells. Reporter genes such as luciferase (luc) and enhanced green fluorescent protein (eGFP) were initially used to quantitate transfection efficiencies from polyplex from the coated ECMs of Collagen type I (Col I), fetal bovine serum protein (FBS), bovine serum albumin (BSA). DNA was complexed with positively charged polyethyleneimine (PEI) at N/P ratio 9. Our initial work exhibited that, in the case of both NIH/3T3 cell line and bone marrow stromal (D1) cell line, Col I facilitated the greatest cell adhesion compared to the other coating proteins and 0.5 microg/cm2 of Col I coating density resulted in highest transfection efficiency. On the other hand, comparison of reverse delivery system with atelocollagen-I have shown that reverse delivery system to yield ten times higher transfection efficiency than atelocollagen-PEI/DNA delivery system and one hundred times higher than atelocollagen-naked plasmid delivery system. Moreover, the amount of DNA used for reverse delivery system was much lower than the other systems. This methodology would be applied to induce cellular differentiation in 3-dimensional scaffold after coating scaffolds with genes inducing the differentiation in the nanoparticle formulation. Our final goal is to search for the optimal conditions for the differentiation of stem cells to specific cell types.

Abstract
We studied the modulating effect of protein tyrosine kinase inhibitors on the response of cells of the human chronic myelogenous leukemia cell line K562 to radiation. The radiosensitivity of the cells was increased by treatment with herbimycin A and decreased by treatment with genistein. This modulating effect of protein tyrosine kinase inhibitors on radiation sensitivity was associated with the alteration of the mode of radiation-induced cell death. After X irradiation, the cells arrested in the G(2) phase of the cell cycle, but these TP53(-/-) cells were unable to sustain cell cycle arrest. This G(2)-phase checkpoint deficit caused cell death. The morphological pattern of cell death was characterized by swelling of the cytoplasmic compartments, cytosolic vacuolation, disruption of the plasma membrane, less evident nuclear condensation, and faint DNA fragmentation, all of which were consistent with oncosis or cytoplasmic apoptosis. The nonreceptor protein tyrosine kinase inhibitor herbimycin A accelerated the induction of typical apoptosis by X irradiation, which was demonstrated by morphological assessments using nuclear staining and electron microscopy as well as oligonucleosomal fragmentation and caspase 3 activity. Herbimycin A is known to be a selective antagonist of the BCR/ABL kinase of Philadelphia chromosome-positive K562 cells; this kinase blocks the induction of apoptosis after X irradiation. Our results showed that the inhibition of protein tyrosine kinase by herbimycin A enhanced radiation-induced apoptosis in K562 cells. This effect was associated with the activation of caspase 3 and rapid abrogation of the G(2)-phase checkpoint with progression out of G(2) into G(1) phase. In contrast, the receptor-type protein tyrosine kinase inhibitor genistein protected K562 cells from all types of radiation-induced cell death through the inhibition of caspase 3 activity and prolonged maintenance of G(2)-phase arrest. Further investigations using this model may give valuable information about the mechanisms of radiation-induced apoptosis and about the radiosensitivity and radioresistance of chronic myelogenous leukemia cells having the Philadelphia chromosome.

Abstract
A 61-yr-old male patient presented with severe chest pain with cardiogenic shock due to an extensive anterolateral myocardial infarction. Two-dimensional echocardiogram showed severe left ventricular systolic dysfunction (ejection fraction=17%). Emergent coronary angiogram obtained immediately after placing temporary pacing electrode revealed total thrombotic occlusion in the left main stem. We performed direct coronary intervention using kissing balloon technique with the aid of Abciximab (ReoPro) infusion. Residual stenosis with thrombus remained even after high pressure balloon dilatations, therefore we placed two stents, one in the ostia of left anterior descending (LAD) and the other in left circumflex artery (LCX). Coronary angiogram after kissing stents showed improved LAD and LCX flows without residual stenosis. Chest pain resolved and blood pressure normalized after coronary intervention. The whole procedure time was 15 min. Follow-up coronary angiogram taken one week later showed patent previous stented arteries, and echocardiography demonstrated 40% of left ventricular ejection fraction. The clinical course for one-year follow-up was uneventful.

Abstract
This study was conducted to investigate SAFB-induced apoptosis of mast cells as it pertains to both its basic drug mechanism and the potential therapeutics of the pathologic conditions accompanying mast cell proliferation. SAFB induced many apoptotic manifestations as evidenced by changes in cell morphology, generation of DNA fragmentation, activation of caspase 3, and DNA hypoploidy. The reduction of mitochondrial membrane potential and the release of cytochrome c to cytosol were also demonstrated. However, reduction of mitochondrial membrane potential and cytochrome c release were not prevented by caspase inhibitor zVAD-fmk or PTP blockers such as bongkrekic acid and cyclosporin A. Expression levels of Bcl-2 and Fas remained unchanged following SAFB treatment. This results suggest that the clinical effect of SAFB may depend on the pharmacological mechanism regulating the demise of mast cells.

Abstract
We describe a 51-yr-old man presenting with syncope due to torsade de pointes. The torsade de pointes was refractory to conventional medical therapy, including infusion of isoproterenol, MgSO4, potassium, lidocaine, and amiodarone. His past history, physical findings, and hormone study confirmed that QT prolongation was caused by anterior hypopituitarism that developed as a sequela of hemorrhagic fever with renal syndrome. The long QT interval with deep inverted T wave was completely normalized 4 weeks after starting steroid and thyroid hormone replacement. Hormonal disorders should be considered as a cause of torsade de pointes, because this life-threatening arrhythmia can be treated by replacing the missing hormone.

Abstract
Interleukin (IL)-8 and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) are important factors that induce the migration and proliferation of endothelial cells, increase the vascular permeability, and the modulate chemotaxis of monocytes. These molecules have been found in human atherosclerotic plaques. However, it is not clear whether the circulating levels of IL-8 and VEGF correlate with the extents of carotid stenosis. In this study, we investigated the relationship between circulating levels of IL-8 as well as VEGF and the extents of carotid stenosis. Sera from 41 patients with carotid stenosis were assessed for concentrations of IL-8 and VEGF by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. The degree of stenosis of extracranial carotid artery was calibrated by carotid B- mode ultrasonography. The serum concentration of IL-8 (r = -0.04733, p > 0.05) was not correlated with the degree of stenosis. However, the serum concentration of VEGF (r = 0.4974, p < 0.01) was significantly correlated with the degree of carotid stenosis. These findings suggest that increased serum level of VEGF might be a marker for higher degree of stenosis of extracranial carotid artery.

Abstract
Aneurysms of the sinus of Valsalva often remain undiagnosed until they rupture. A 61-year-old man had a huge, heavily calcified unruptured aneurysm, originating from the right sinus of Valsalva, detected incidentally on a chest radiograph taken for the diagnosis of cardiomegaly. Two-dimensional echocardiography revealed pericardial effusion with a huge calcified mass compressing the right ventricular outflow tract. The Doppler color-flow echocardiogram showed blood flow from the aortic root into the aneurysm. A chest computed tomographic scan revealed a large thrombosed aneurysm originating from the aortic root and measuring 10x10 cm. After pericardiocentesis, cardiac catheterization was performed, which showed that the right ventricular systolic pressure had elevated to 80 mmHg. Aortic root aortography demonstrated a huge unruptured calcified aneurysm in the sinus of Valsalva arising from the right coronary sinus. The patient underwent surgical correction to prevent aneurysmal rupture and to relieve the right ventricular outflow obstruction.

Abstract
In Western countries, sudden cardiac death (SCD) is closely related to coronary artery disease, but in Korea the clinical characteristics of SCD are not well determined. Over a 4-year period (June 1995 to May 1999), 186 cases of SCD, ranging in age from 16 to 75 years, were admitted to the Chonnam National University Hospital. In 82 (44.1%) of these, neither symptoms nor evidence of structural heart disease was found and so their clinical characteristics were investigated. There were 66 (80.5%) men and 16 (19.5%) women (male/female ratio = 4.1:1). The mean age was 50 +/- 14 years: 19 (23.2%) were in their 40s, 21 (25.6%) in their 50s, and 17 (20.7%) in their 60s. The time of circulatory collapse witnessed in 68 cases of SCD showed 2 peaks: between midnight and 03.00h (n=16, 23.5%) and between 09.00h and midday (n=15, 22.1%). Unexplained SCD occurred at home in 48 (64.9%) cases and on the street in 12 (16.2%); it occurred during normal daily routine activity in 23 (39.6%) and during sleep in 15 (25.9%). Thirty-three patients (40.2%) experienced various prodromal symptoms, including chest discomfort (n=13, 15.9%) and dyspnea (n=8, 9.8%). The electrocardiogram taken on arrival recorded asystole in 65 (79.3%) and ventricular fibrillation in 17 (20.7%). Idiopathic ventricular fibrillation was diagnosed in 14 (10 men, 4 women; 45 +/- 11 years) of 21 patients who recovered spontaneous circulation. Five (6.1%) patients were discharged alive, and an implantable cardioverter-defibrillator was implanted in 2. Unexplained SCD is common in Korea and develops predominantly in middle-aged males around midnight or in the late morning usually with no prodromal symptoms (59.8%). Idiopathic ventricular fibrillation is thought to be one of the important causes.

Abstract
Although the long-term survival of patients suffering from coronary spasm is usually excellent, serious complications can develop, such as disabling pain, myocardial infarction, ventricular tachyarrhythmias, atrioventricular block and sudden cardiac death. A 40-year-old man who had intractable chest pain from coronary artery spasm suffered ventricular fibrillation and an acute anterior myocardial infarction upon first admission. The patient underwent a coronary angiogram, which revealed a spontaneous focal spasm at the proximal left anterior descending coronary artery (LAD). He was treated by the combination of nitrate and calcium channel blocker, but continued to complain of severe chest pain despite intensive medical therapy and he had to be treated in the emergency room 5 times during an 8-month follow-up period. An ergonovine coronary angiogram was performed and an intracoronary ultrasound examination, which revealed a focal spasm at the same site of the proximal LAD with a small amount of localized eccentric atheromatous plaque. A coronary artery stent was placed in the proximal LAD and his symptoms resolved. A follow-up coronary angiogram was performed 3 years after stenting and the stent remained patent without any in-stent restenosis or spasm.

Abstract
Although previous studies demonstrated that genistein-induced apoptosis of various cell types including RPE-J cells, the involvement of mitochondrial events in such types of apoptosis has not been demonstrated to date. In this investigation of genistein-induced apoptosis of RPE-J cells, genistein induced the reduction of the mitochondrial membrane potential and the release of cytochrome c to cytosol. A mitochondrial permeability transition pore (PTP) blocker bongkrekic acid prevented the reduction of the mitochondrial membrane potential and cytochrome c release, and consequently abolished caspase-3 activation, nuclear condensation, and DNA fragmentation. On the other hand, zVAD-fmk did not inhibit the mitochondrial event such as the reduction of the mitochondrial membrane potential and cytochrome c release although it prevented caspase-3 activation, nuclear condensation, and DNA fragmentation. Taken together, genistein induces apoptosis of RPE-J cells by opening the mitochondrial PTP, and the mitochondrial event in this type of apoptosis is caused independently of caspase.

Abstract
A novel immunostimulating factor (ISTF) of Actinobacillus actinomycetemcomitans ATCC 29522 was isolated and characterized as inducing proliferation of mouse B cells and human peripheral blood mononuclear cells. This factor was isolated from the bacterial culture medium and purified by size exclusion chromatography, dye-ligand affinity chromatography, immunoaffinity chromatography using monoclonal antibodies, and preparative electrophoresis. Analysis by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis revealed that the purified ISTF migrated as a single band corresponding to a molecular mass of 13 kDa. ISTF was a proteinaceous material distinct from lipopolysaccharide; it directly induced the proliferation of B lymphocytes but had no effect on the proliferation of T lymphocytes, even in the presence of antigen-presenting cells. A B-lymphocyte-mitogenic activity of ISTF was also shown by flow cytometric analysis of responding cell subpopulations. Immunoblot analysis revealed that ISTF was a component of the outer membranes of bacteria, could exist as a soluble form, and was released by growing and/or lysed bacteria. These results suggest that ISTF produced by A. actinomycetemcomitans may play an important role in immunopathologic changes associated with A. actinomycetemcomitans infections.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE Smooth muscle cell migration and proliferation from arterial media into the neointima are major factors in the restenosis process following coronary angioplasty. Because short wave ultraviolet (UV) radiation is cytotoxic for rat carotid artery smooth muscle cells, the aims of this study were to determine the effects of short wave UV irradiation on normal pig coronary arteries and to evaluate the efficacy of UV laser energy for reducing neointimal hyperplasia (NI). STUDY DESIGN/MATERIALS AND METHODS In 13 pigs fed a normal diet, 37 coronary arteries were studied. UV laser light (275 nm) was applied in escalating doses from 0-16,353 mJ/cm2 via fiberoptic through a 20 mm PTCA balloon catheter. The pigs were euthanized at 21 days and histologic analysis performed. Arterial media was rendered acellular (ACM) in 20 of 33 irradiated coronary arteries (61%). The minimum UV energy density inducing ACM was 1348 mJ/cm2. The fraction of acellular media to internal elastic lamina length (ACM/IEL) was 0.79 +/- 0.29. RESULTS No statistically significant difference was found between NI thickness at normal media sites (NM) vs. ACM sites (0.17 +/- 0.14 mm vs. 0.16 +/- 0.17 mm). No correlation was found between UV dose and NI formation (r = 0.307, P = 0.08). CONCLUSION Short wave UV irradiation induces ACM in normal porcine coronary arteries. Induction of acellular media is not associated with a reduction of NI formation in this porcine coronary model.

Abstract
Atherosclerosis is an inflammatory disease. Platelet-endothelium interaction plays an important role in the pathophysiology of atherogenesis. We investigated the role of activated platelets for secretion of interleukin (IL)-1beta, monocyte chemotactic protein (MCP)-1 and macrophage inflammatory protein (MIP)-1alpha and expression of intercellular adhesion molecule (ICAM)-1 on endothelial cells. Human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVEC) were incubated with non-stimulated or ADP-activated platelets for 6 hr. Secretion of interleukin (IL)-1beta, MCP-1 and MIP-1alpha and surface expression of ICAM-1 were measured by ELISA and flow cytometry. In the presence of activated platelets, the secretion of IL-1beta, MCP-1, and MIP-1alpha and surface expression of ICAM-1 were significantly increased compared with non-activated platelets. The present study shows that activated platelets may contribute to expression of various inflammatory mediators on endothelial cells.

Abstract
One of the major limitations in coronary intervention is restenosis. This study was aimed to identify clinical, angiographic, and procedural factors that may be related to the second restenosis (SR). We studied 101 patients who underwent more than two follow-up coronary angiograms after two coronary interventions between January 1996 and December 1998 in Chonnam University Hospital (out of 4,092 total coronary interventions in 3,030 patients during the same period). The patients were divided into two groups according to the evidence of SR. Fifty-two patients (group A: 57+/-10 years, M:F = 44:8) who had SR and the other 49 patients (group B: 54+/-9 years, M:F = 44:5) without SR were analyzed. Clinical features, angiographic characteristics, coronary interventional procedures, and other risk factors were compared between two groups by univariate analysis and multivariate stepwise logistic regression analysis was performed for the predictive factors for SR. The clinical variables of age, sex, clinical diagnosis, and risk factors were not different between two groups. The lesion severer than B(2) by AHA/ACC classification were associated with SR (P<0.05). Recurrent angina as an indication for follow-up angiography was associated with SR (P<0.01). Predictive factors associated with SR were patient's subjective symptom and lesion severer than type B(2) according to AHA/ACC classification.
