Abstract
Samples of the carbonaceous asteroid Ryugu were brought to Earth by the Hayabusa2 spacecraft. We analyzed 17 Ryugu samples measuring 1 to 8 millimeters. Carbon dioxide-bearing water inclusions are present within a pyrrhotite crystal, indicating that Ryugu's parent asteroid formed in the outer Solar System. The samples contain low abundances of materials that formed at high temperatures, such as chondrules and calcium- and aluminum-rich inclusions. The samples are rich in phyllosilicates and carbonates, which formed through aqueous alteration reactions at low temperature, high pH, and water/rock ratios of <1 (by mass). Less altered fragments contain olivine, pyroxene, amorphous silicates, calcite, and phosphide. Numerical simulations, based on the mineralogical and physical properties of the samples, indicate that Ryugu's parent body formed ~2 million years after the beginning of Solar System formation.

Abstract
The Hayabusa2 spacecraft investigated the C-type (carbonaceous) asteroid (162173) Ryugu. The mission performed two landing operations to collect samples of surface and subsurface material, the latter exposed by an artificial impact. We present images of the second touchdown site, finding that ejecta from the impact crater was present at the sample location. Surface pebbles at both landing sites show morphological variations ranging from rugged to smooth, similar to Ryugu's boulders, and shapes from quasi-spherical to flattened. The samples were returned to Earth on 6 December 2020. We describe the morphology of >5 grams of returned pebbles and sand. Their diverse color, shape, and structure are consistent with the observed materials of Ryugu; we conclude that they are a representative sample of the asteroid.

Abstract
The LEXI and SMILE missions will provide soft X-ray images of the Earth's magnetosheath and cusps after their anticipated launch in 2023 and 2024, respectively. The IBEX mission showed the potential of an Energetic Neutral Atom (ENA) instrument to image dayside magnetosheath and cusps, albeit over the long hours required to raster an image with a single pixel imager. Thus, it is timely to discuss the two imaging techniques and relevant science topics. We simulate soft X-ray and low-ENA images that might be observed by a virtual spacecraft during two interesting solar wind scenarios: a southward turning of the interplanetary magnetic field and a sudden enhancement of the solar wind dynamic pressure. We employ the OpenGGCM global magnetohydrodynamics model and a simple exospheric neutral density model for these calculations. Both the magnetosheath and the cusps generate strong soft X-rays and ENA signals that can be used to extract the locations and motions of the bow shock and magnetopause. Magnetopause erosion corresponds closely to the enhancement of dayside reconnection rate obtained from the OpenGGCM model, indicating that images can be used to understand global-scale magnetopause reconnection. When dayside imagers are installed with high-ENA inner-magnetosphere and FUV/UV aurora imagers, we can trace the solar wind energy flow from the bow shock to the magnetosphere and then to the ionosphere in a self-standing manner without relying upon other observatories. Soft X-ray and/or ENA imagers can also unveil the dayside exosphere density structure and its response to space weather.

Abstract
The Hayabusa2 spacecraft investigated the small asteroid Ryugu, which has a rubble-pile structure. We describe an impact experiment on Ryugu using Hayabusa2's Small Carry-on Impactor. The impact produced an artificial crater with a diameter >10 meters, which has a semicircular shape, an elevated rim, and a central pit. Images of the impact and resulting ejecta were recorded by the Deployable CAMera 3 for >8 minutes, showing the growth of an ejecta curtain (the outer edge of the ejecta) and deposition of ejecta onto the surface. The ejecta curtain was asymmetric and heterogeneous and it never fully detached from the surface. The crater formed in the gravity-dominated regime; in other words, crater growth was limited by gravity not surface strength. We discuss implications for Ryugu's surface age.

Abstract
The near-Earth asteroid (162173) Ryugu is a 900-m-diameter dark object expected to contain primordial material from the solar nebula. The Mobile Asteroid Surface Scout (MASCOT) landed on Ryugu's surface on 3 October 2018. We present images from the MASCOT camera (MASCam) taken during the descent and while on the surface. The surface is covered by decimeter- to meter-sized rocks, with no deposits of fine-grained material. Rocks appear either bright, with smooth faces and sharp edges, or dark, with a cauliflower-like, crumbly surface. Close-up images of a rock of the latter type reveal a dark matrix with small, bright, spectrally different inclusions, implying that it did not experience extensive aqueous alteration. The inclusions appear similar to those in carbonaceous chondrite meteorites.

Abstract
The Hayabusa2 spacecraft arrived at the near-Earth carbonaceous asteroid 162173 Ryugu in 2018. We present Hayabusa2 observations of Ryugu's shape, mass, and geomorphology. Ryugu has an oblate "spinning top" shape, with a prominent circular equatorial ridge. Its bulk density, 1.19 ± 0.02 grams per cubic centimeter, indicates a high-porosity (>50%) interior. Large surface boulders suggest a rubble-pile structure. Surface slope analysis shows Ryugu's shape may have been produced from having once spun at twice the current rate. Coupled with the observed global material homogeneity, this suggests that Ryugu was reshaped by centrifugally induced deformation during a period of rapid rotation. From these remote-sensing investigations, we identified a suitable sample collection site on the equatorial ridge.

Abstract
The near-Earth asteroid 162173 Ryugu, the target of the Hayabusa2 sample-return mission, is thought to be a primitive carbonaceous object. We report reflectance spectra of Ryugu's surface acquired with the Near-Infrared Spectrometer (NIRS3) on Hayabusa2, to provide direct measurements of the surface composition and geological context for the returned samples. A weak, narrow absorption feature centered at 2.72 micrometers was detected across the entire observed surface, indicating that hydroxyl (OH)-bearing minerals are ubiquitous there. The intensity of the OH feature and low albedo are similar to thermally and/or shock-metamorphosed carbonaceous chondrite meteorites. There are few variations in the OH-band position, which is consistent with Ryugu being a compositionally homogeneous rubble-pile object generated from impact fragments of an undifferentiated aqueously altered parent body.

Abstract
The near-Earth carbonaceous asteroid 162173 Ryugu is thought to have been produced from a parent body that contained water ice and organic molecules. The Hayabusa2 spacecraft has obtained global multicolor images of Ryugu. Geomorphological features present include a circum-equatorial ridge, east-west dichotomy, high boulder abundances across the entire surface, and impact craters. Age estimates from the craters indicate a resurfacing age of [Formula: see text] years for the top 1-meter layer. Ryugu is among the darkest known bodies in the Solar System. The high abundance and spectral properties of boulders are consistent with moderately dehydrated materials, analogous to thermally metamorphosed meteorites found on Earth. The general uniformity in color across Ryugu's surface supports partial dehydration due to internal heating of the asteroid's parent body.

Abstract
Newly designed Lyman-alpha absorption cells for imaging hydrogen planetary corona were characterized using an ultra high resolution Fourier transform spectrometer installed on the DESIRS (Dichroïsme Et Spectroscopie par Interaction avec le Rayonnement Synchrotron) beamline of Synchrotron SOLEIL in France. The early absorption cell installed in the Japanese Mars orbiter NOZOMI launched in 1998 had not been sufficiently optimized due to its short development time. The new absorption cells are equipped with the ability to change various parameters, such as filament shape, applied power, H2 gas pressure, and geometrical configuration. We found that the optical thickness of the new absorption cell was ∼4 times higher than the earlier one at the center wavelength of Lyman-alpha absorption, by optimizing the condition to promote thermal dissociation of H2 molecules into two H atoms on a hot tungsten filament. The Doppler temperature of planetary coronas could be determined with an accuracy better than 100 K with the performance of the newly developed absorption cell.

Abstract
A silicon retina that emulates the sustained and the transient responses in the vertebrate retina was fabricated. The circuit of the chip consists of two layers of resistive network that have different length constants. The output emulating the sustained response possesses a Laplacian-Gaussian-like receptive field and, therefore, carries out a smoothing and contrast-enhancement on the input images. This receptive field was realized by subtracting voltages distributing over the two resistive networks. The output emulating the transient response was obtained by subtracting consecutive images that were smoothed out by the resistive network and is sensitive to moving objects. The outputs of these two channels can be obtained alternately from the silicon retina in real time, within time delays not exceeding a few tens of milliseconds, with indoor illumination. The outputs of the chip are offset-suppressed analog voltages since the uncontrollable mismatches of transistor characteristics are compensated for with the aid of sample/hold circuits embedded in each pixel circuit. The silicon retina fabricated in the present study can be readily used in current engineering applications, e.g., robot vision.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The regulation of transgene expression is a key issue for the development of safe gene therapy. Various strategies have been used to regulate protein production at the levels of transgene expression, transcription, translation, and secretion. Neutralization following secretion is another important backup system to prevent super-therapeutic levels of a protein from being expressed by gene transfer. METHODS We tested whether the soluble human erythropoietin receptor (EpoR)/IgG(1)Fc could neutralize the rat Epo at the post-secretory level and suppress erythrocytosis. RESULTS To assess whether soluble human EpoR could bind rat Epo in vitro, we used the Epo-dependent human leukemic cell line, AS-E2. EpoR/IgG(1)Fc significantly inhibited the growth of AS-E2 cells in Epo-containing medium. To test this neutralization effect of EpoR/IgG(1)Fc in vivo, we first transferred pCAGGS-Epo into rat muscle by in vivo electroporation, confirmed erythropoiesis for 3 weeks, and then delivered EpoR/IgG(1)Fc by liver-targeted gene transfer via tail-vein injection with hydrodynamics-based transfection. Reticulocyte counts and hematocrit levels in rats that received pCAGGS-EpoR/IgG(1)Fc injections were significantly lower than in rats that received pCAGGS-EpoR, pCAGGS-IgG(1)Fc, or no injection. CONCLUSIONS These results demonstrate that liver-targeted pCAGGS-EpoR/IgG(1)Fc transfer by tail-vein injection with hydrodynamics-based transfection is useful for neutralizing Epo delivered by in vivo electroporation. This backup strategy at the level of post-secretion could facilitate the clinical application of gene therapy in the future.

Abstract
We recently developed a novel kidney-targeted gene transfer technique in rats, using the retrograde renal vein injection of naked plasmid DNA. Many animal disease models are created in mice by transgenic or knockout technologies. However, it is much harder to perform renal vein injection in mice than in rats because they have a thin and short vein. Here we transferred the mouse interleukin (IL)-10 gene into mice by retrograde renal vein injection, using an IL-10 and immunoglobulin fusion protein (IL-10/Fc) (96-kDa) expression plasmid, pCAGGS-IL10/Fc. We observed a dose-response relationship between serum IL-10 levels and the amount of injected DNA. The serum IL-10 levels peaked at day 1 and then were sustained for at least 2 weeks. These results demonstrate that the kidney-targeted naked plasmid DNA transfer of mice by retrograde renal vein injection can be achieved, and the kidney serves as a depot organ for the production of large proteins.

Abstract
A high level of plasmid DNA expression in rat liver can be achieved by the rapid injection of a large volume of a naked DNA solution into the tail vein, called the 'hydrodynamics-based procedure.' The preparation of PCR-amplified DNA fragments is easier than that of naked DNA. In this paper we evaluated the effects of expressing the erythropoietin (Epo) gene in the rat liver by injecting fCAGGS-Epo, an Epo-expressing PCR-amplified DNA fragment, via the tail vein. After injection of 5 pmol fCAGGS-Epo (10 microg) or pCAGGS-Epo (18.4 microg), plasmid DNA, the serum Epo levels peaked at week 1, then persisted for at least 12 weeks. Transgene-derived Epo secretion resulted in significant erythropoiesis. These results demonstrated that transfer of PCR-amplified DNA fragments into the rat liver via rapid tail vein injection can be achieved. This method may provide a useful means for studying the physiologic function of a putative gene.

Abstract
Gene therapy is expected to revolutionize the treatment of kidney diseases. Viral interleukin (vIL)-10 has a variety of immunomodulatory properties. We examined the applicability of vIL-10 gene transfer to the treatment of rats with crescentic glomerulonephritis, a T helper 1 (Th 1) predominant disease. To produce the disease, Wistar-Kyoto rats were injected with a rabbit polyclonal anti-rat glomerular basement membrane antibody. After 3 h, a large volume of plasmid DNA expressing vIL-10 (pCAGGS-vIL-10) solution was rapidly injected into the tail vein. pCAGGS solution was similarly injected into control rats (pCAGGS rats). We confirmed the presence of vector-derived vIL-10 mainly in the liver and observed high serum vIL-10 levels in pCAGGS-vIL-10-injected rats. Compared with the pCAGGS rats, the pCAGGS-vIL-10 rats showed significant therapeutic effects: reduced frequency of crescent formation, decrease in the number of total cells, macrophages, and CD4+ T cells in the glomeruli, decrease in urine protein, and attenuation of kidney dysfunction. Using quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction, we also observed that this model was Th1-predominant in the glomeruli and that the ratio of the transcripts of CD4, interferon-gamma, tumor necrosis factor-alpha, and monocyte chemotactic protein-1 to the transcripts of glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase in the glomeruli were all significantly lower in the pCAGGS-vIL-10 rats than in the pCAGGS rats. These results demonstrate that pCAGGS-vIL-10 gene transfer by hydrodynamics-based transfection suppresses crescentic glomerulonephritis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND High levels of foreign gene expression in mouse hepatocytes can be achieved by rapid tail vein injection of a large volume of a naked DNA solution, the 'hydrodynamics-based procedure'. Rats are more tolerant of the frequent phlebotomies required for monitoring blood parameters than mice, and thus are better for some biomedical research. METHODS We tested this technique for the delivery of a therapeutic protein in normal rats, using a rat erythropoietin (Epo) expression plasmid vector, pCAGGS-Epo. RESULTS We obtained maximal Epo expression when the DNA solution was injected in a volume of 25 ml (approximately 100 ml/kg body weight) within 15 s. We observed a dose-response relationship between serum Epo levels and the amount of injected DNA up to 800 microg. Using quantitative real-time PCR, the vector-derived Epo mRNA expression was mainly detected in the liver. When a lacZ expression plasmid was injected similarly, beta-galactosidase was exclusively detected in the liver, mainly in hepatocytes. Toxicity attributable to the technique was mild and transient, as assessed by histochemical analysis. Epo gene expression and erythropoiesis occurred with Epo gene transfer in a dose-dependent manner, and persisted for at least 12 weeks, the last time point examined. Repeated administration of the plasmid DNA also effectively led to erythropoiesis. CONCLUSIONS These results demonstrate that gene transfer into the liver via rapid tail vein injection can easily be achieved in the rat, which is more than 10 times larger than the mouse, and has significant value for gene function analysis in rats.

Abstract
It has been suggested that acute eosinophilic pneumonia (AEP) is associated with cigarette smoking because in Japan, the patients with AEP are young and have a high incidence of short-term smoking history. However, there has been no direct evidence to support that cigarette smoke causes AEP. Herein is reported the first case showing the direct evidence and a long-term clinical course of cigarette smoking-induced AEP, in which tolerance to repeated resumption of smoking cigarettes might have occurred. We should pay attention to the history of cigarette smoking in seeing patients with AEP, especially in young patients.

Abstract
A linear analog network model is proposed to characterize the function of the outer retinal circuit in terms of the standard regularization theory. Inspired by the function and the architecture of the model, a vision chip has been designed using analog CMOS Very Large Scale Integrated circuit technology. In the chip, sample/hold amplifier circuits are incorporated to compensate for statistic transistor mismatches. Accordingly, extremely low noise outputs were obtained from the chip. Using the chip and a zero-crossing detector, edges of given images were effectively extracted in indoor illumination.

Abstract
When arthroscopy of the temporomandibular joint (TMJ) is performed, we often observe differences in the resistance of hydraulic pressure during intra-articular pumping. It can be speculated that intra-articular adhesion and contracture of the capsule and ligament may cause these differences in resistance. In order to measure the changes in intra-articular hydraulic pressure before and after arthroscopic ablation surgery, seven cases were examined by balloon pumping technique. We concluded that the values of intra-articular hydraulic pressure are implicated in the severity of the internal derangement of TMJ.

Abstract
We have investigated the invasive activity of mouse trophoblast cells during embryo implantation in vitro by culturing blastocysts with extracellular matrix (ECM) purified from mouse endometrium obtained on day 4 of pregnancy. Endometrium was dissected from lyophilized mouse uteri, and intact ECM was isolated by sequential precipitation in nonionic detergent and high salt. Electron microscopic examination of the ECM revealed typical collagen fibers plus an amorphous material resembling basement membrane. Electrophoretic analysis of the ECM revealed an enrichment of high molecular weight proteins, and immunoblotting indicated the presence of fibronectin, laminin, entactin, and type IV collagen, but not the intracellular proteins 2',3'-cyclic nucleotide-3'-phosphodiesterase or vimentin. Mouse blastocysts cultured with this ECM attached to it within 3 days, and the trophoblast cells began to migrate through the matrix in a manner resembling trophoblast invasion in utero. Unlike blastocysts cultured on plastic surfaces, the trophoblast did not flatten and become disorganized, but retained a polarized, spherical structure. Fluorescent microscopy with fluorescein isothiocyanate-labeled phalloidin revealed a high degree of microfilament organization and established that actin was absent from the ECM preparation. In the presence of a serum substitute, differentiation continued through yolk sac formation. Without serum components, yolk sac did not form; however, light and electron microscopic examination indicated that the invasive behavior of trophoblast cells persisted and was comparable to that of trophoblasts cultured in the presence of the serum substitute. A three-dimensional model for investigating trophoblast behavior in ECM from the endometrium should be of great value in elucidating the cellular and molecular events surrounding the process of blastocyst implantation.

Abstract
The intranuclear course, distribution and termination of the tegmental afferents in the interpeduncular nucleus (IP) were studied in the mouse by means of the rapid Golgi method. Primarily on the basis of terminal branching patterns and distribution areas, two types of afferents were distinguished. The type 1 fibers distribute mainly within the rostral half in the form of numerous glomerular endings, the size of which corresponds well with that of the tufted terminal dendrites of the IP neurons. On the other hand, the caudal half of the IP has far fewer fibers than the rostral IP and is innervated by the type 2 fibers, which follow a tortuous course, terminating in dense fiber plexus. Thus, the rostral and caudal IP are innervated in a different fashion by different afferents originating from tegmental regions. These results are discussed in relation to the distribution patterns of another conspicuous afferent system of the IP, the fasciculus retroflexus.

Abstract
The courses and terminal patterns of the fasciculus retroflexus (FR) in the interpeduncular nucleus (IP) were studied in the mouse, using the rapid Golgi method. Mainly on the basis of the distribution areas and terminal patterns, the FR fibers are divided into two types. The type 1 FR fibers are coarse in contour and take zigzag courses to distribute throughout the entire rostral half and core region of the caudal IP. In contrast, the type 2 fibers are fine, travel caudally along the lateral boundary of the IP and terminate in the lateral regions of the caudal half, forming a dense fiber plexus. The distribution areas of the type 1 and type 2 fibers are clearly differentiated from each other, from the cytoarchitectural as well as the fibroarchitectural viewpoint. Thus, the type 1 and type 2 FR fibers form different fiber systems in the IP. These results are discussed in the light of the known hodological, histochemical and ultrastructural studies.

Abstract
The intrinsic organization of the olfactory bulb (OB) was studied in the red stingray using the rapid Golgi method. The OB is horse shoe-shaped, surrounding the equator region of the nasal capsule. As seen in the sagittal sections, the OB is round with the long olfactory peduncle extending from the dorsocaudal region and the olfactory fibers in a thick bundle entering from the rostroventral aspect. Although not so distinct, the following areas are distinguished. A rostroventral ovoid area adjacent to the entrance of the olfactory fibers consists exclusively of the olfactory fibers running in various directions. Dorsocaudal to the olfactory fiber area is a wide crescent region containing thin bundles of olfactory fibers, olfactory glomeruli, mitral cells and a few disseminated granule cells. A narrow crescent area made up of scattered granule cells is located dorsocaudally to the above wide crescent area. The outermost region consists of a fiber layer encapsulating the dorsal to caudal aspect of the OB. Thus, while the major constituents of the vertebrate OB are recognized, the lamination is very obscure.

Abstract
Afferent fibers to the habenular ganglion (HG) were derived mainly from the stria medullaris thalami (SM), which was roughly divided into a dorsal and ventral bundle. In the left ganglion seen at the level of the rostrocaudal middle, the dorsal bundle gave off collaterals to the lateral habenular nucleus (LH) and dorsal subnucleus of the medial habenular nucleus (MH), while the ventral bundle innervated the intermediate and ventral subnuclei of the MH. On the other hand, in the right ganglion at the level of the rostrocaudal middle, the dorsal subnucleus of the MH was innervated by collaterals from the dorsal bundle of the SM, whereas in the intermediate and ventral subnucleus fibers from the ventral bundle were seen. In the left ganglion at the caudal level, the dorsal and ventral bundle extended medially and joined the same bundle of the opposite side to constitute a dorsal and intermediate component of the habenular commissure, respectively. A third component of the HC, a ventral component, was seen to run between the fasciculus retroflexus of both sides. As in the case of the rostral level, the dorsal bundle of the SM emitted collaterals to the LH and dorsal subnucleus of the MH, while the intermediate and ventral subnuclei of the MH were projected upon by collaterals from the ventral bundle of the SM. At the caudal level of the right ganglion, the dorsal bundle gave off collaterals to the dorsal subnucleus of the MH. In contrast, the LH and the intermediate and ventral subnuclei of the MH were innervated by fibers from the ventral bundle. With regard to terminal patterns of the SM, fibers to the MH gave off many short fine branchlets forming the glomerular structures, whereas those to the LH branched out into numerous terminals to form a dense fiber plexus. Thus, the afferent fibers to the HG in the red stingray exhibited a striking left-right asymmetry.

Abstract
The neuronal organization of the habenular ganglion (HG) was studied in the red stingray using the rapid Golgi method. The HG was made up of the medial (MH) and lateral habenular nucleus (LH), and the former nucleus was further divided into a dorsal, intermediate and ventral subnucleus. Only one type of neurons were observed in the MH, while the LH was composed of two types of neurons. In the left HG cut at the rostrocaudal middle of the ganglion, the LH was located in the dorsolateral region, while the dorsal, intermediate and ventral subnuclei of the MH occupied the dorsomedial, intermediate and ventral portions of the ganglion, respectively. In contrast, the right ganglion seen at this level was composed exclusively of the MH, with the dorsal, intermediate and ventral subnuclei located in the dorsomedial, intermediate and ventral portions, respectively. In the caudal level of the left ganglion, each nucleus was seen almost in the same region as in the level of the rostrocaudal middle, however, three subnuclei of the MH fused with the same subnuclei of the opposite side. In the right ganglion at the caudal level, the LH appeared in the intermediate area. The right LH was far smaller and was located more ventrocaudally than the left LH. On account of the LH, the intermediate subnucleus of the MH was divided into a dorsal and ventral part. The dorsal and ventral subnuclei of the MH remained in the same region as in the rostral level. Thus, the HG of the red stingray exhibited a striking left-right asymmetry, the most remarkable aspect of which was considered to be differences of the size, form and location of the LH between the left and right HG.

Abstract
Most of patients with tsutsugamushi disease are diagnosed by their clinical histories suggesting the opportunities of Rickettsia infection in a rural region. We reported a 76-year-old female patient, who was considered to be infected in her house in the urban area of Komatsu City. She has shown typical clinical manifestations of tsutsugamushi disease, and was remitted successfully by oral administration of minocycline. Although specific antibodies to Rickettsia tsutsugamushi could not be detected in her serum by the complement fixation (CF) method during her clinical course, their significant elevation was confirmed by the indirect immunofluorescence (IF) method.

Abstract
A 40 year old woman with Sheehan's syndrome demonstrated polymorphous ventricular tachycardia and hypomagnesemia. The diagnosis of Sheehan's syndrome was based on her history, physical examination and endocrinological data. Serum magnesium level was 1.5 mg/dl. After the treatment of polymorphous ventricular tachycardia by lidocaine, an electrocardiogram showed low voltage, T-wave inversion or flattening and QT-prolongation, and these electrocardiographic abnormalities gradually improved after the initiation of cortisone therapy. A chest roentgenogram, an echocardiogram, thallium-201 scan of the myocardium and hemodynamic parameters indicated no abnormal findings. It is suspected that hypomagnesemia caused polymorphous ventricular tachycardia. However, the cause of hypomagnesemia and its relation to Sheehan's syndrome in the present case were not determined, although, hypomagnesemia was improved after the administration of cortisone.

Abstract
We treated a Japanese man with Rendu-Osler-Weber disease and a recurrent encephalopathy with hyperammonemia concomitant with recurrent epistaxis, G-I bleeding, congestive heart failure with aortic and mitral regurgitation, and chronic renal failure. At peritoneoscopy, several telangiectasia were noted on the surface of the liver. Angiographical studies revealed widened and tortuous hepatic arteries with early filling of hepatic veins and small pools of contrast medium scattered throughout the parenchyma. The recurrent encephalopathy was attributed to the porto-systemic shunt formed in the liver.

Abstract
Cefuzonam (CZON), a new cephem antibiotic agent, was studied in terms of its pharmacokinetics and clinical efficacy in the field of obstetrics and gynecology, and the results were summarized as follows. 1. The absorption and the tissue penetration of CZON into intrapelvic genital organs were good. The peak serum level in uterine artery after an intravenous drip infusion of 1.0 g was 49.0 micrograms/ml, and the highest peak level of 23.0 micrograms/g in tissues was obtained. After drip infusion of 2.0 g, the peak serum level in uterine artery was 137 micrograms/ml and the highest peak tissue concentration was 54.6 micrograms/g. Tissue concentrations of the drug changed in a similar pattern to serum levels and a dose-dependent response was recognized. 2. The penetration of CZON into intrapelvic dead space exudate was good. The level reached a peak of 8.17 micrograms/ml 4 hours after and intravenous drip infusion of 1.0 g and diminished slowly. 3. The clinical efficacy of CZON at a daily dose of 2 g was evaluated in 21 cases of obstetrics and gynecologic infections. The efficacy rate was 85.7% (18/21 cases). Bacteriologically, the eradication rate obtained was 93.3%. No side effects or abnormal laboratory values were observed.

Abstract
The authors studied mortality among 2513 relatives of 56 Japanese patients with systemic lupus erythematosus. The observed deaths in 142 relatives were compared with the expected number of deaths. The observed number of deaths was significantly less among relatives of patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (p less than 0.01). Deaths from malignant neoplasms and senility (senescence) were significantly lower than the expected number of deaths among relatives (p less than 0.05).

Abstract
The capacity to solubilize immune complexes formed in vitro was measured in 25 patients with Behcet's disease. Both the level of circulating immune complexes and that of complement are increased in these patients. The solubilization capacity appeared to increase, paralleling the rise of serum complement levels in patients with Behcet's disease. Thus, increased capacity to solubilize immune complexes may be attributed to complement that is increased in these patients. The relationship between the capacity to solubilize complexes and the pathogenesis of Behcet's disease is discussed.

Abstract
The phagocytic activity of peripheral blood leukocytes was assayed by means of oxygen consumption in 28 patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) and 22 normal individuals. The method in which zymosan was added to a small volume of whole blood enabled us to assay quantitatively and rapidly both the phagocytosis-connected oxygen consumption and the opsonizing time. The degree of oxygen consumption by phagocytes from SLE patients was not significantly different from that in normals. Opsonizing time of zymosan by autologous serum in SLE patients did not differ from that in normals either. It should be emphasized, however, that the opsonizing time of zymosan in SLE patients was inversely correlated with serum complement level, especially C3 level (coefficient of correlation = -0.76, p less than 0.001). This raises the possibility that the phagocytosis may be delayed in SLE patients with low titers of C3.

Abstract
An attempt was made to elucidate the pathogenesis of hepatoma. The material comprises 20 cases which were followed up more than 3 years after diagnosed liver cirrhosis and verified by autopsy. Hepatoma was found in 10 out of these 20 cases (50%). The follow-up period of these 10 cases with hepatoma was from 3 to 9.5 years (the mean value; 5.5 years). All 10 cases were not heavy drinkers, and showed liver cirrhosis of the mixed type by autopsy. HBsAG was positive in 6 out of 8 cases by RIA method (75%), and alpha-f was also detected in 5 of 7 cases by RIA method (70%). On the contrary, only 2 out of 10 cases without hepatoma were HBsAG positive (20%). The present results indicate that HBsAG positive liver cirrhosis of the mixed type is closely related to hepatoma in our country.

Abstract
An attempt was made to find reliable indices for the early recognition of fatal cases of acute viral hepatitis, using the values of serum proteins with rapid turnover. Prealbumin and alpha2-HS-glycoprotein were measured in the sera of 44 cases by immunodiffusion method before the appearance of hepatic coma and/or gastrointestinal bleeding. The difference of the mean values of prealbumin between fatal and surviving cases of subacute form of fulminant hepatitis was not statistically significant. In contrast to this, there was statistically significant difference between both groups in the mean values of alpha2-HS-glycoprotein (p less than 0.05). The present results indicate the possibility of differentiating fatal cases from surviving ones at an early stage, using the reduction of alpha2-HS-glycoprotein by a simple and reproducible immunodiffusion method.

Abstract
An attempt was made to find reliable indices for early diagnosis of fatal cases of acute viral hepatitis, using the values of serum proteins with rapid turnover. Of the subfractions of serum protein, prealbumin, alpha2-HS-glycoprotein and Normotest were measured simultaneously before the appearance of hepatic coma/or gastrointestinal bleeding in 78 cases of acute viral hepatitis, verified by biopsy or necropsy. The mean value of prealbumin with a very short half-life of one or two days, was 6.0 mg/dl in fatal cases, 7.4 mg/dl in surviving ones of subacute form of fulminant hepatitis. The difference between fatal and surviving cases was not statistically significant. In contrast to this, the values alpha2-HS-glycoprotein with a comparatively short halflife of four to six days, showed statistically significant difference between fatal (21.9 mg/dl) and surviving cases (37.4 mg/dl). Normotest was also depressed in fatal (10.7%) and surviving cases (45.3%). The difference was statistically significant. The present results indicate the possibility of differentiating fatal cases from surviving ones at an early stage, using the reduction of alpha2-HS-glycoprotein and the value of Normotest.
