Abstract
Linelike features in TeV γ rays constitute a "smoking gun" for TeV-scale particle dark matter and new physics. Probing the Galactic Center region with ground-based Cherenkov telescopes enables the search for TeV spectral features in immediate association with a dense dark matter reservoir at a sensitivity out of reach for satellite γ-ray detectors, and direct detection and collider experiments. We report on 223 hours of observations of the Galactic Center region with the MAGIC stereoscopic telescope system reaching γ-ray energies up to 100 TeV. We improved the sensitivity to spectral lines at high energies using large-zenith-angle observations and a novel background modeling method within a maximum-likelihood analysis in the energy domain. No linelike spectral feature is found in our analysis. Therefore, we constrain the cross section for dark matter annihilation into two photons to ⟨σv⟩≲5×10^{-28} cm^{3} s^{-1} at 1 TeV and ⟨σv⟩≲1×10^{-25} cm^{3} s^{-1} at 100 TeV, achieving the best limits to date for a dark matter mass above 20 TeV and a cuspy dark matter profile at the Galactic Center. Finally, we use the derived limits for both cuspy and cored dark matter profiles to constrain supersymmetric wino models.

Abstract
Background
Fractional flow reserve (FFR) is a gold standard method to evaluate functional lesion severity in daily clinical practice. Recently, the resting full-cycle ratio (RFR) was Previous studies showed the better diagnostic performance of RFR comparing with FFR. It is well known that patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) have poor prognosis. Therefore, we should carefully assess the functional lesion severity in CKD patients. However, it is unclear whether the diagnostic performance of RFR for detecting functional ischemia is similar regardless of the degree of renal function. The aim of this study is to compare the diagnostic performance of RFR based on renal function.
Method
This study was a prospectively enrolled observational study. A total of 265 consecutive patients with 373 intermediate lesions were enrolled in this study. There were classified into three groups according to renal function (Group 1: eGFR ≥60 mL/min/1.73m2; Group 2: 30 mL/min/1.73m2 ≤eGFR <60 mL/min/1.73m2; Group 3: eGFR <30mL/min/1.73m2). The RFR was measured after adequately waiting for stable condition, while FFR was measured after intravenous administration of ATP (180mcg/kg/min). The discordance between FFR and RFR were assessed the data using known cutoffs for FFR (≤0.80) and RFR (≤0.89).
Results
Of 373 lesions, the median age was 70.1±11.0 years. Functional significance was observed in 153 lesions (41.0%) of all lesions. RFR showed a significant correlation with FFR in each group (Group 1; r2=0.63 [p<0.001], Group 2: r2=0.67 [p<0.001], Group 3: r2=0.51 [p<0.001], respectively). The ROC curve analysis of RFR showed differential results for predicting functional significance (Group 1: AUC 0.88, cut-off value 0.91; Group 2: AUC 0.88, cut-off value 0.89; Group 3: AUC 0.81, cut-off value 0.83; respectively) in each group. The prevalence of discordant between RFR and FFR was significantly different among 3 groups (Group 1: 16.5%, Group 2: 19.4%, Group 3: 25.0%, respectively, p<0.05 for among 3 groups).
Conclusion
The diagnostic performance of RFR was different based on renal function. During RFR acquisition, the degree of renal function could influence concordance with FFR, and should be taken into account when interpreting RFR.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Recently, wire-based resting indices have been recognized as gold standard for evaluating physiological lesion assessment. The resting full-cycle ratio (RFR) is a unique resting index which is calculated as the point of absolutely lowest distal pressure to aortic pressure during entire cardiac cycle. It is unclear whether the diagnostic performance of RFR for detecting functional coronary artery stenosis is similar in each coronary artery. The aim of this study is to compare the diagnostic performance of RFR based on target coronary vessel.
Method
This study was a prospectively enrolled observational study. A total of 156 consecutive patients with 220 intermediate lesions were enrolled in this study. The RFR was measured after adequately waiting for stable condition, while FFR was measured after intravenous administration of ATP (180mcg/kg/min). Lesions with FFR ≤0.80 were considered functionally significant coronary artery stenosis.
Results
In all lesions, reference diameter, diameter stenosis, lesion length, RFR, and FFR were 3.0±0.7mm, 45±13%, 13.0±8.8mm, 0.90±0.09, and 0.82±0.10, respectively. Functional significance was observed in 88 lesions (40%) of all lesions. RFR showed a significant correlation with FFR in overall lesions (r=0.774, p<0.001). The ROC curve analysis of RFR showed good accuracy for predicting functional significance (AUC 0.87, diagnostic accuracy 81%) in all subjects. Regarding each target vessel, there were similar and significant positive correlation between RFR and FFR (LAD; r=0.733, p<0.001, LCX; r=0.771, p<0.001, RCA; r=0.769, p<0.001, respectively). The prevalence of discordant between RFR and FFR was significantly different among 3 vessels (LAD 26%, LCX 12%, RCA 13%, respectively, p<0.05 for among 3 groups). Regarding the comparison of ROC curves according to lesion location, AUC was significantly lower in LAD than in LCX and RCA (LAD 0.780, LCX 0.947, RCA 0.926, p<0.01 for LAD compared to LCX, p<0.01 for LAD compared to RCA, respectively). Furthermore, the diagnostic accuracy was significantly different according to target vessel (LAD 74%, LCX 88%, RCA 87%, respectively, p<0.05 for among 3 vessels).
Conclusion
RFR demonstrated better diagnostic accuracy for evaluating functional lesion severity. The diagnostic performance of RFR was different based on target vessel. RFR is a unique and useful resting index, and it may detect functionally significant coronary stenosis that cannot be detected with other resting indices in daily practice.

Abstract
Abstract
Introduction
Fractional flow reserve (FFR) is a gold standard method to evaluate functional lesion severity in daily clinical practice. Recently, the resting full-cycle ratio (RFR) which was newly developed resting indices was launched. Unlike other resting indices evaluated in diastolic phase, RFR is evaluated during entire cardiac phase. Previous studies showed discordance predictors between FFR and instantaneous wave-free ratio. However, it is previously unreported what predictor cause discordant outcome between FFR and RFR.
Purpose
The purpose of this study was to evaluate clinical predictors of discordance between FFR and RFR.
Methods
A total of 156 patients with 220 lesions were prospectively enrolled in this study. RFR was evaluated before inducing hyperemia. FFR was measured after intravenous adenosine triphosphate administration (180 mcg/kg/min). According to FFR and RFR values, the patients and lesions were classified into 4 groups: Concordant negative (Group-1 [n=114]: FFR >0.80, RFR >0.89); negative FFR and positive RFR (Group-2 [n=18]: FFR >0.80, RFR ≤0.89); positive FFR and negative RFR (Group-3 [n=25]: FFR ≤0.80, RFR >0.89); Concordant positive (Group-4 [n=63]: FFR ≤0.80, RFR ≤0.89). Among them, discordance predictors with clinical characteristics between RFR and FFR were compared using by two separate logistic regression analyses. (Group-1 vs. Group-2, Group-3 vs. Group-4, respectively). Age, sex and those predictors with a p value ≤0.10 were included in a multivariate regression analysis using by forward stepwise selection to identify independent predictors of discordance.
Results
On multiple regression analysis, hemodialysis (HD) (OR:6.072 [1.090–33.836]), peripheral artery disease (PAD) (OR:9.053 [1.776–46.162]) and left anterior descending artery (LAD) (OR:9.264 [2.092–41.031]) were significantly associated with positive RFR among negative FFR groups (Groupe 2 discordance). Conversely, diabetes mellitus (DM) (OR:0.212 [0.062–0.721]) and Hb (OR:1.480 [1.102–1.987]) were significantly associated with negative RFR among positive FFR groups (Groupe 3 discordance)
Conclusions
Since the clinical characteristics with HD, PAD, LAD, DM and Hb may influence concordant with FFR during RFR evaluation, it should be considered when interpreting RFR.

Abstract
Background
Recently, non-hyperemic physiologic indices have become widespread for evaluating physiological lesion assessment. The resting full-cycle ratio (RFR) is a unique non-hyperemic index which is calculated as the point of absolutely lowest distal pressure to aortic pressure during entire cardiac cycle. It is unclear whether RFR may detect functionally significant coronary stenosis that cannot be detected with other resting indices due to differences in the cardiac cycle. The aim of this study is to compare the diagnostic performance of RFR based on cardiac cycle.
Method
This study was a prospectively enrolled observational study. A total of 156 consecutive patients with 220 intermediate lesions were enrolled in this study. The RFR was measured after adequately waiting for stable condition, while FFR was measured after intravenous administration of ATP (180mcg/kg/min). Lesions with FFR ≤0.80 were considered functionally significant coronary artery stenosis.
Results
In all lesions, reference diameter, diameter stenosis, lesion length, RFR, and FFR were 3.0±0.7mm, 45±13%, 13.0±8.8mm, 0.90±0.09, and 0.82±0.10, respectively. Functional significance was observed in 88 lesions (40%) of all lesions. RFR systole was observed in 24 lesions (10.9%). Regarding to the coronary lesions, RFR systole was more frequent in non-LAD (LAD; 4.2%, left circumflex artery (LCX); 9.8%, and right coronary artery (RCA); 30.4%, respectively, p<0.018). RFR showed a significant correlation with FFR in both systole and diastole (R = 0.918, p<0.001, R = 0.733, p<0.001, respectively). The ROC curve analysis showed similar agreement in both systole and diastole (AUC: 0.881, p<0.001, AUC: 0.864, p<0.001, respectively). RFR provided a good diagnostic accuracy and no difference in both systole and diastole (79.6% and 87.5%, respectively, p=0.58).
Conclusion
RFR is feasible and reliable non-hyperemic index regardless of the difference of cardiac cycle to evaluate physiological lesion severity in daily practice.

Abstract
Here, we investigated the usefulness of silk fibroin nanofibers obtained via mechanical grinding of degummed silkworm silk fibers as an additive in bioinks for extrusion three-dimensional (3D) bioprinting of cell-laden constructs. The nanofibers could be sterilized by autoclaving, and addition of the nanofibers improved the shear thinning of polymeric aqueous solutions, independent of electric charge and the content of cross-linkable moieties in the polymers. The addition of nanofibers to bioinks resulted in the fabrication of hydrogel constructs with higher fidelity to blueprints. Mammalian cells in the constructs showed >85% viability independent of the presence of nanofibers. The nanofibers did not affect the morphologies of enclosed cells. These results demonstrate the great potential of silk fibroin nanofibers obtained via mechanical grinding of degummed silkworm silk fibers as an additive in bioinks for extrusion 3D bioprinting.

Abstract
On January 14, 2019, the Major Atmospheric Gamma Imaging Cherenkov telescopes detected GRB 190114C above 0.2 TeV, recording the most energetic photons ever observed from a gamma-ray burst. We use this unique observation to probe an energy dependence of the speed of light in vacuo for photons as predicted by several quantum gravity models. Based on a set of assumptions on the possible intrinsic spectral and temporal evolution, we obtain competitive lower limits on the quadratic leading order of speed of light modification.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Kimura's disease (KD) is known to be dominant among young Asian men, but it can also occur in middle- and advanced-aged people. The clinical characteristics of KD, especially by age, are not well known. AIM This study was performed to investigate the effects of age on the clinical characteristics of KD. DESIGN We conducted a case series study. METHODS All case studies of patients diagnosed with KD were collected via a PubMed search of studies published until August 2018. The data were analyzed by age group. RESULTS In total, 215 studies were reviewed (238 patients; mean age of 36 years). The male:female ratio was 4:1 overall, 17:1 in patients aged <20 years, 4:1 in patients aged 20-39 years and 2:1 in patients aged ≥40 years (P = 0.01). The percentage of patients with pruritus was 15.4% overall, 3.8% in patients aged <20 years, 15.5% in patients aged 20-39 years and 21.7% in patients aged ≥40 years (P = 0.02). The time to diagnosis was 5.3 years overall, 3.2 years in patients aged <20 years, 4.7 years in patients aged 20-39 years and 7.1 years in patients aged ≥40 years (P < 0.01). CONCLUSIONS The proportion of female patients affected the incidence of pruritus, and the time to diagnosis increased as the patients' age increased. There were no significant age-related differences in region/race, complications, multiplicity, laterality, anatomical distribution, maximum size, eosinophil count, immunoglobulin E level, initial treatment, recurrence or outcomes. This may be useful information for the diagnosis of KD.

Abstract
Background/Introduction
Erythropoietin (EPO) exerts haematopoiesis-independent cardiovascular and renal protective effects by binding to EPO receptors expressed in hearts, arteries, and kidneys. We have reported that EPO inhibits vascular and renal injury in rat models of hypertension and type 1 diabetes. Recent studies report that EPO improves glucose tolerance in insulin resistant animals.
Purpose
This study investigated whether EPO would inhibit vascular and renal dysfunction in the setting of insulin resistance.
Methods
Rats were treated with sucrose (12% in drinking water) for 10 weeks to induce insulin resistance. EPO (3 times/week, s.c) was administered at the dose of 150U/kg for 10 weeks from the beginning (group A) or at the dose of 75U/kg for the last 4 weeks (group B) of sucrose treatment. Blood pressure was measured every second week by the tail-cuff method. HOMA-IR, haematocrit, and urinary protein excretion were measured. Using isolated aortas, acetylcholine-induced vasorelaxation under phenylephrine-induced pre-contraction was examined. Aortic sections were stained with haematoxylin-eosin.
Results
Both groups A and B showed higher haematocrit levels compared with the control and sucrose alone-treated groups. Sucrose treatment increased HOMA-IR (7.7±2.0 vs. 24±4.5, p<0.05), which was attenuated in groups A (3.6±0.9) and B (9.7±4.0). EPO treatment (150U/kg) had no effects on blood pressure for the first 4 weeks but caused time-dependent increases in blood pressure from the 6th week. Increased proteinuria and impaired aortic vasorelaxation in sucrose-treated rats were exacerbated by EPO (150U/kg) maybe because of hypertension (Control 122±2mmHg, Sucrose 125±2mmHg, group A 148±5mmHg), one of the major side effects of EPO. According to these results, we treated a half dose of EPO only for the last 4 weeks (group B). A lower dose of EPO treatment for a shorter period did not increase proteinuria (Control 15±2mg/day, Sucrose 25±3mg/day, group B 24±3mg/day) despite a mild increase in blood pressure (132±2mmHg). Impaired endothelium-dependent vasodilation and aortic thickening in the aorta of sucrose alone-treated rats were attenuated by lower and shorter EPO treatment (group B).
Conclusions
EPO inhibited insulin resistance and vascular injury in sucrose-induced insulin resistant rats. Further investigation into the mechanisms of tissue protective effects of EPO, especially focusing on the effects on insulin signalling in not only hepatic and muscle cell but also vascular and renal cells, will be needed.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Triglyceride deposit cardiomyovasculopathy (TGCV) is a novel disease concept characterized by the excessive accumulation of triglyceride in cardiomyocytes and vascular smooth muscle cells, leading to coronary artery disease (CAD), heart failure, and arrhythmia. However, it is rarely known whether TGCV contributes to the increased risk of vascular failure after drug eluting stent (DES) implantation.
Purpose
The aim of this study was to evaluate vascular failure after 2nd generation DES implantation in patients with TGCV.
Methods
Among 637 consecutive patients suspected of having CAD who underwent both coronary angiography and iodine-123-β-methyliodophenyl-pentadecanoic acid (BMIPP) scintigraphy between 2010 and 2018, we analyzed the data from 92 patients who met the inclusion criteria (shown in Table and Figure). Ninety-two patients were allocated to the presence (TGCV group, 11 patients) or absence (control group, 81 patients) of TGCV. All of 92 patients were implanted 2nd generation DES and underwent planned follow up coronary angiography. Control patients were diagnosed of diabetes mellitus. Binary restenosis (ISR), defined as angiographic luminal diameter ≥50% by quantitative coronary angiography, target lesion revascularization (TLR), In-stent late loss and restenosis morphology were assessed in 23 stents of TGCV group and 120 stents of control group.
Results
There were no significant differences in baseline characteristics between the two groups except for the prevalence of hypertension. In-stent late loss was greater in TGCV than in control (0.45 (−0.04 to 3.33) vs. 0.15 (−0.18 to 2.75), p=0.ehz748.10067), resulting in greater incidence of ISR and TLR in TGCV than in control (34.8% vs. 10.0%, p=0.0017; 21.7% vs. 6.7%, p=0.021, respectively). On multivariable logistic regression analysis, TGCV was found to be a significant and independent predictor for ISR after 2nd generation DES implantation. Regarding restenosis morphology, diffuse and occlusive pattern of ISR, were more frequently observed in TGCV than control (87.5% and 33.3%, Fisher's exact test p=0.028).

Conclusion
Patients with TGCV showed the greater incidence of vascular failure even after 2nd generation DES implantation, contributing to the novel risk factor for coronary intervention even in the 2nd DES era.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Previous optical coherence tomography (OCT) study demonstrated that the incomplete stent apposition (ISA) distance <355 μm immediately after an index procedure was the corresponding cut-off point for predicting the resolution of ISA at 8–12 months follow-up in the second-generation DES. However, the natural course of acute ISA in the earlier phase remains unknown. The aim of the present study is to evaluate the natural course of acute ISA in the early phase after second-generation everolimus-eluting stent (EES) using serial OCT analyses at 2-week and 4-month.
Methods
From the population of the ACS-OCT trial, we identified a total of 45 patients who successfully underwent serial OCT examinations at post-stenting, 2-week follow-up, and 4-month follow-up. The presence of ISA was assessed in the OCT images, and ISA distance was measured within the stented segment. The target site for OCT analysis was the cross-section at the proximal edge of implanted stent. Serial OCT images at post-stenting, 2-week follow-up and 4-month follow-up were reviewed side by side on the screen, and maximum ISA distance and cross-sectional ISA area were measured.
Results
Incomplete stent apposition was observed in all EES at post-stenting, and it was persistent in 37.8% at 2-week follow-up and 11.1% at 4-month follow-up. Maximum ISA distance was significantly decreased over time (post-stenting, 144±150mm; 2-week follow-up, 88±146mm; 4-month follow-up, 34±111mm). Receiver-operating curve analysis identified that the best cut-off value of OCT-estimated ISA distance at post-stenting for predicting persistent ISA at 2-week follow-up and 4-month follow-up was >140μm and >215μm, respectively.
ROC curve analysis
Conclusion
ISA distance at post-stenting is an useful predictor for the resolution of ISA in the early phase after EES implantation.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Although fractional flow reserve (FFR) is a gold standard method to evaluate functional lesion severity in the catheterization laboratory, the need of hyperemic condition limits the widespread adoption of FFR. Recently, the resting full-cycle ratio (RFR) which was newly developed resting indices was launched. It is unclear whether RFR as resting condition could assess physiological lesion severity of coronary artery stenosis. The aim of this study was to evaluate the diagnostic impact of RFR compared to FFR in entire range of coronary artery stenosis.
Method
A total of 53 patients with 70 lesions were enrolled in this study. The RFR was measured after adequately waiting for stable condition, while FFR was measured after intravenous administration of ATP (180mcg/kg/min). Lesions with FFR ≤0.80 were considered functionally significant coronary artery stenosis.
Results
In all lesions, reference diameter, diameter stenosis, lesion length, RFR, and FFR were 3.3±0.8mm, 44±12%, 14.6±7.2mm, 0.90±0.11, and 0.83±0.11, respectively. Functional significance was observed in 24 lesions (34%) of all lesions. The RFR showed a significant correlation with FFR (y = 0.800x + 0.239, R = 0.817, p<0.001). The Bland-Altman plot demonstrated a good agreement with a mean difference of 0.07 and a standard deviation of 0.06 between RFR and FFR across entire range of coronary artery stenosis. ROC curve analysis showed an excellent accuracy of RFR cut-off of ≤0.90 in predicting FFR ≤0.80 which had 78% sensitivity and 87% specificity (AUC 0.87, diagnostic accuracy 84%).
Conclusion
The RFR as newly resting indices is reliable to the assessment of functional lesion severity. This physiology-based approach may be a possible alternative method for FFR measurements in daily practice.

Abstract
Background Continuous epidural infusion (CEI) has some disadvantages, such as increased local anesthetic consumption and limited area of anesthetic distribution. Programmed intermittent bolus (PIB) is a technique of epidural anesthesia in which boluses of local anesthetic are automatically injected into the epidural space. The usefulness of PIB in thoracic surgery remains unclear. In this study, we aimed to compare the efficacies of PIB epidural analgesia and CEI in patients undergoing thoracic surgery. Methods This randomized prospective study was approved by the Institutional Review Board. The study included 42 patients, who were divided into CEI (n = 21) and PIB groups (n = 21). In the CEI group, patients received continuous infusion of the local anesthetic at a rate of 5.1 mL/90 min. In the PIB group, a pump delivered the local anesthetic at a dose of 5.1 mL every 90 min. The primary endpoints were the frequency of patient-controlled analgesia (PCA) and the total dose of local anesthetic until 36 h following surgery. Student’s t-test, the chi-square test, and the Mann–Whitney U test were used for statistical analyses. Results The mean number of PCA administrations and total amount of local anesthetic were not significantly different between the two groups up to 24 h following surgery. However, the mean number of PCA administrations and total amount of local anesthetic at 24–36 h after surgery were significantly lower in the PIB group than in the CEI group (median [lower–upper quartiles]: 0 [0–2.5] vs. 2 [0.5–5], P = 0.018 and 41 [41–48.5] vs. 47 [43–56], P = 0.035, respectively). Hypotension was significantly more frequent in the PIB group than in the CEI group at 0–12 h and 12–24 h (3.3% vs. 0.5%, P = 0.018 and 7.9% vs. 0%, P = 0.017, respectively). Conclusion PIB can reduce local anesthetic consumption in thoracic surgery. However, it might result in adverse events, such as hypotension. Trial registration This randomized prospective study was approved by the Institutional Review Board (IRB No. 15-9-06) of the Fukuoka University Hospital, Fukuoka, Japan, and was registered in the clinical trials database UMIN (ID 000019904) on 24 November 2015. Written informed consent was obtained from all patients.

Abstract
In cynomolgus macaques (Macaca fascicularis), widely used in drug metabolism studies, CYP2C9, CYP2C76, CYP2D6, CYP3A4, and CYP3A5, important drug-metabolizing enzymes, are abundantly expressed in liver and metabolize cytochrome P450 substrates. CYP2C9 (c.334A>C), CYP2C76 (c.449TG>A), CYP2D6 (c.891A>G), CYP3A4 (IVS3 + 1G>del), and CYP3A5 (c.625A>T) substantially influence metabolic activity of enzymes, and thus are important variants in drug metabolism studies. In this study, a real-time PCR method was developed for genotyping these variants. The validity of the methods was verified by genotyping two wild type, two heterozygous, and two homozygous DNAs and was used to genotype 41 cynomolgus macaques (from Cambodia, Indonesia, the Philippines, or Vietnam) for the five variants, along with another important variant CYP2C19 (c.308C>T). The CYP2C9 and CYP2C19 variants were found only in Cambodian and Vietnamese animals, while the CYP2C76 and CYP2D6 variants were found only in Indonesian and Philippine animals. The CYP3A4 and CYP3A5 variants were not found in any of the animals analyzed. Mauritian animals, genotyped using next-generation sequencing data for comparison, possessed the CYP2C19 and CYP2D6 variants, but not the other variants. These results indicated differences in prevalence of these important variants among animal groups. Therefore, the genotyping tool developed is useful for drug metabolism studies using cynomolgus macaques.

Abstract
Scalloped tongue is considered as a possible clinical finding of obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA). There are few evidence of the association between scalloped tongue and OSA. To examine the association between scalloped tongue and nocturnal intermittent hypoxia (NIH), a surrogate marker of OSA, among a general Japanese population. Study participants were 398 men and 732 women aged 30-79 years who participated in the Toon Health Study from 2011 to 2014. Scalloped tongue was classified into three categories: none, mild and moderate-to-severe. Moderate-to-severe NIH was defined as the 3% oxygen desaturation index of ≥15 events/h during sleep for one night with pulse oximetry. The multivariable-adjusted odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) for moderate-to-severe NIH were calculated according to scalloped tongue categories using a logistic regression model. There were 69 (6·1%) moderate-to-severe NIH cases in this population. The multivariable-adjusted ORs (95% CIs) of moderate-to-severe NIH were 1·59 (0·85-2·95) for mild and 2·39 (1·10-5·17) for the moderate-to-severe scalloped tongue group compared with the group without scalloped tongues. When stratified by overweight status (BMI <25 or ≥25 kg m-2 ), the respective ORs (95% CIs) were 2·83 (1·06-7·55) and 4·74 (1·28-17·49) among overweight individuals, and 0·94 (0·40-2·70) and 1·52 (0·57-4·05) among non-overweight individuals. Scalloped tongue was associated with higher prevalence of moderate-to-severe NIH among the general Japanese population and this association was more evident in overweight individuals.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To identify CT findings of massive venous invasion (MVI) in colorectal cancer, compare them to pathological findings and evaluate its clinical implications. METHODS Among 423 patients who received surgical resection of colorectal cancer, pre-operative CT of 26 patients (15 males, 11 females; mean age, 63.0 ± 12.1 years) with histopathologially proven MVI and 26 patients (14 males, 12 females; mean age, 71.1 ± 9.6 years) with histopathologically proven lymph node (LN) metastases were reviewed and compared with histopathological findings. We evaluated CT detectability of MVI and the morphologic differences between MVI and LN metastasis. All cases were followed up for at least 6 months after surgery. RESULTS Pre-operative CT correctly diagnosed only one case as tumour thrombus. 9 lesions were not detected on CT, and others were misdiagnosed pre-operatively as regional LN metastasis (14 cases) and juxtatumoural abscess (2 cases). After reviewing these cases, MVIs were identifiable in 20 of 26 cases. MVI was depicted on CT as nodules (oval, lobulated), abscess-like or intravenous tumour thrombus. MVI was significantly larger than LN metastasis (p < 0.05), while contrast enhancement was significantly lower (p < 0.05), and MVI often had an enhanced rim. Ten patients had synchronous metastases, and six patients had metachronous distant metastases within 5 years. CONCLUSION Many cases of MVI were distinguishable from LN metastases on pre-operative CT of colorectal cancer, but their appearances were varied, reflecting their histopathological behaviours. The distant metastatic rate was much higher in cases with MVI. ADVANCES IN KNOWLEDGE Radiologists should be aware of CT findings of MVI in colorectal cancer as a sentinel sign of distant metastasis.

Abstract
To understand the effects of radionuclides on non-human biota and the environment, it is essential to study the intake and metabolism of radio-isotopes in earthworms which are among the most important soil organisms, and Eisenia fetida, which were used in this study, are known to be sufficiently sensitive to chemicals and representative of common earthworms. In this study, we assessed the concentration ratios, uptake and retention, absorbed dose rate, and distribution of radio-caesium in earthworms. The concentration ratios of (137)Cs (i.e., the concentrations of radio-caesium in earthworms relative to those in dry soil) were higher early in the culturing period and decreased gradually over the experimental period. (137)Cs taken up by E. fetida was cleared rapidly after the worms were cultured in radio-caesium-free soil, suggesting that the metabolism of radio-caesium in earthworms is very rapid. Autoradiography demonstrated that the concentration of radio-caesium within the digestive tract was as high as that in the soil, while radio-caesium in the body tissue was lower than radio-caesium in the soil and was almost uniformly distributed among earthworm tissues. The highest absorbed dose rate of total exposure to radio-caesium ((137)Cs + (134)Cs) was calculated to be 1.9 × 10(3) (μGy/day) in the earthworms.

Abstract
Magnetars are a special type of neutron stars, considered to have extreme dipole magnetic fields reaching ∼ 10(11) T. The magnetar 4 U 0142+61, one of the prototypes of this class, was studied in broadband x rays (0.5-70 keV) with the Suzaku observatory. In hard x rays (15-40 keV), its 8.69 sec pulsations suffered slow phase modulations by ± 0.7 sec, with a period of ∼ 15 h. When this effect is interpreted as free precession of the neutron star, the object is inferred to deviate from spherical symmetry by ∼ 1.6 × 10(-4) in its moments of inertia. This deformation, when ascribed to magnetic pressure, suggests a strong toroidal magnetic field, ∼ 10(12) T, residing inside the object. This provides one of the first observational approaches towards toroidal magnetic fields of magnetars.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The pathogenic mechanisms of atopic dermatitis (AD) and recurrent wheezing (RW) during infancy are not fully understood. OBJECTIVE We evaluated immunological markers associated with AD and RW during infancy. METHODS We followed a cohort (n = 314) from birth to 14 months of age. Some of the participants underwent a physical examination and blood test at 6 and 14 months of age. Univariate and multivariate logistic regression analysis and receiver operating characteristic curve analysis were performed to find which immunological markers could be risk factors for AD and RW. RESULTS Of 16 immunological markers found in cord blood, only immunoglobulin (Ig) E was associated with AD at 6 months of age (adjusted OR [aOR], 1.607). None of the markers was associated with AD or RW at 14 months of age. Of 23 immunological markers at 6 months of age, total IgE (aOR, 1.018) and sensitization to egg white (aOR, 23.246) were associated with AD at 14 months of age. Phytohemagglutinin (PHA)-induced production of interleukin (IL) 4 from peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) (aOR, 1.043) was associated with RW at 14 months of age. CONCLUSION Cord blood IgE was a risk factor for AD at 6 months of age. Total IgE and sensitization to egg white at 6 months of age were risk factors for AD at 14 months of age. PHA-induced IL-4 production in PBMCs at 6 months of age was a risk factor for RW at 14 months of age.

Abstract
We aimed to reveal the effects of range expansion and subsequent lineage admixture from separated glacial refugia on genetic diversity of Kalopanax septemlobus in Japan, by combining nuclear microsatellite data and ecological niche modelling. Allelic richness and gene diversity were compared at the population and regional level. We also statistically examined these indices as a function of population accessibility to the last glacial maximum (LGM) palaeodistribution reconstructed by ecological niche modelling to test a simple range expansion scenario from glacial refugia. Genetic diversity was highest in the populations of southern Japan and gradually decreased towards the north. However, an additional centre of genetic diversity, when measured as gene diversity, was found in northern Honshu Island, where distinct lineages were shown to be in contact. Positive effects of population accessibility to the LGM range were detected in both diversity indices at different spatial scales. The combined data support independent postglacial range expansions towards the north from the edge populations on the exposed coastal shelf of Pacific and Sea of Japan in northern Honshu during the LGM, which subsequently resulted in markedly low genetic diversity in the northernmost extant range, Hokkaido. The regional increase in gene diversity in northern Honshu is likely to be the result of postglacial lineage admixture. Relative difference in the spatial scales best relating population genetic diversity with the LGM distribution can be explained by a higher rate of allelic richness diversity loss during range expansions and stronger effects of lineage admixture on gene diversity.

Abstract
AbstractThis paper describes examination of in-service coating degradation in land based gasturbine blades by means of a small punch testing (SP) method and scanning Auger microprobe(SAM). SP tests on coated specimens with unpolished surfaces indicated large variations ofthe mechanical properties because of the surface roughness and curvature in gas turbine blades, SP tests on polished specimens better characterized the mechanical degradation of bladecoatings. The coated specimens greatly softened and the room temperature ductility of thecoatings and substrates tended to decrease with increasing operation time. The ductile-brittletransition temperature of the coatings shifted to higher temperatures during the bladeoperation. From SAM analyses on fracture surfaces of unused and used blades, it has beenshown that oxidation and sulfidation near the coating surface, which control the fractureproperties, result from high temperature environmental attack.

Abstract
This study prospectively evaluated the clinical performance of computer-assisted design and computer-assisted manufacturing (CAD/CAM)-generated In-Ceram Alumina core crowns in Japanese patients for up to 5 years. A total of 101 In-Ceram crowns with aluminium copings fabricated using the GN-I system were placed in Japanese patients. The crowns were evaluated using a California Dental Association (CDA) quality assessment system at baseline and at all follow-up examinations. Gingival condition was assessed using plaque and bleeding scores. The survival of anterior and posterior crowns was analysed according to the Kaplan-Meier method. The scores of gingival condition were compared between restored crowns and contralateral teeth using a t-test. During the observation period, six crowns were lost to follow-up. Five crowns were fractured from the copings and removed, and four crowns were removed for other reasons. Chipping within the porcelain was detected in three crowns, which were then polished. The cumulative survival rates after 60 months were 96·9% for anterior crowns and 87·7% for posterior ones, and there were no significant differences between anterior and posterior crowns. According to the CDA criteria, most of the crowns were rated as satisfactory during the observation period. There were significant differences in soft tissue conditions between In-Ceram crowns and control teeth at 2- and 5-year examinations. Despite the five fractures from copings, In-Ceram Alumina crowns with copings fabricated using the CAD/CAM (GN-I system) for replacing both anterior and posterior teeth showed predictable results during a 5-year observation period.
