Abstract
Genetic variants of human flavin-containing monooxygenase 3 (FMO3) were investigated using an updated Japanese population panel containing 54,000 subjects (the previous panel contained 38,000 subjects). One stop codon mutation and six amino acid-substituted FMO3 variants were newly identified in the updated databank. Of these, two substituted variants (p.Thr329Ala and p.Arg492Trp) were previously identified in compound haplotypes with p.[(Glu158Lys; Glu308Gly)] and were associated with the metabolic disorder trimethylaminuria. Three recombinant FMO3 protein variants (p.Ser137Leu, p.Ala334Val, and p.Ile426Val) expressed in bacterial membranes had similar activities toward trimethylamine N-oxygenation (∼75-125 %) as wild-type FMO3 (117 min-1); however, the recombinant novel FMO3 variant Phe313Ile showed moderately decreased FMO3 catalytic activity (∼20 % of wild-type). Because of the known deleterious effects of FMO3 C-terminal stop codons, the novel truncated FMO3 Gly184Ter variant was suspected to be inactive. To easily identify the four impaired FMO3 variants (one stop codon mutation and three amino-acid substitutions) in the clinical setting, simple confirmation methods for these FMO3 variants are proposed using polymerase chain reaction/restriction fragment length polymorphism or allele-specific PCR methods. The updated whole-genome sequence data and kinetic analyses revealed that four of the seven single-nucleotide nonsense or missense FMO3 variants had moderately or severely impaired activity toward trimethylamine N-oxygenation.

Abstract
Modern medicine is increasingly focused on personalized medicine, and multi-omics data is crucial in understanding biological phenomena and disease mechanisms. Each ethnic group has its unique genetic background with specific genomic variations influencing disease risk and drug response. Therefore, multi-omics data from specific ethnic populations are essential for the effective implementation of personalized medicine. Various prospective cohort studies, such as the UK Biobank, All of Us and Lifelines, have been conducted worldwide. The Tohoku Medical Megabank project was initiated after the Great East Japan Earthquake in 2011. It collects biological specimens and conducts genome and omics analyses to build a basis for personalized medicine. Summary statistical data from these analyses are available in the jMorp web database (https://jmorp.megabank.tohoku.ac.jp), which provides a multidimensional approach to the diversity of the Japanese population. jMorp was launched in 2015 as a public database for plasma metabolome and proteome analyses and has been continuously updated. The current update will significantly expand the scale of the data (metabolome, genome, transcriptome, and metagenome). In addition, the user interface and backend server implementations were rewritten to improve the connectivity between the items stored in jMorp. This paper provides an overview of the new version of the jMorp.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Sodium-glucose co-transporter-2 (SGLT2) inhibitors reduce progression of chronic kidney disease and the risk of cardiovascular morbidity and mortality in a wide range of patients. However, their effects on kidney disease progression in some patients with chronic kidney disease are unclear because few clinical kidney outcomes occurred among such patients in the completed trials. In particular, some guidelines stratify their level of recommendation about who should be treated with SGLT2 inhibitors based on diabetes status and albuminuria. We aimed to assess the effects of empagliflozin on progression of chronic kidney disease both overall and among specific types of participants in the EMPA-KIDNEY trial. METHODS EMPA-KIDNEY, a randomised, controlled, phase 3 trial, was conducted at 241 centres in eight countries (Canada, China, Germany, Italy, Japan, Malaysia, the UK, and the USA), and included individuals aged 18 years or older with an estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) of 20 to less than 45 mL/min per 1·73 m2, or with an eGFR of 45 to less than 90 mL/min per 1·73 m2 with a urinary albumin-to-creatinine ratio (uACR) of 200 mg/g or higher. We explored the effects of 10 mg oral empagliflozin once daily versus placebo on the annualised rate of change in estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR slope), a tertiary outcome. We studied the acute slope (from randomisation to 2 months) and chronic slope (from 2 months onwards) separately, using shared parameter models to estimate the latter. Analyses were done in all randomly assigned participants by intention to treat. EMPA-KIDNEY is registered at ClinicalTrials.gov, NCT03594110. FINDINGS Between May 15, 2019, and April 16, 2021, 6609 participants were randomly assigned and then followed up for a median of 2·0 years (IQR 1·5-2·4). Prespecified subgroups of eGFR included 2282 (34·5%) participants with an eGFR of less than 30 mL/min per 1·73 m2, 2928 (44·3%) with an eGFR of 30 to less than 45 mL/min per 1·73 m2, and 1399 (21·2%) with an eGFR 45 mL/min per 1·73 m2 or higher. Prespecified subgroups of uACR included 1328 (20·1%) with a uACR of less than 30 mg/g, 1864 (28·2%) with a uACR of 30 to 300 mg/g, and 3417 (51·7%) with a uACR of more than 300 mg/g. Overall, allocation to empagliflozin caused an acute 2·12 mL/min per 1·73 m2 (95% CI 1·83-2·41) reduction in eGFR, equivalent to a 6% (5-6) dip in the first 2 months. After this, it halved the chronic slope from -2·75 to -1·37 mL/min per 1·73 m2 per year (relative difference 50%, 95% CI 42-58). The absolute and relative benefits of empagliflozin on the magnitude of the chronic slope varied significantly depending on diabetes status and baseline levels of eGFR and uACR. In particular, the absolute difference in chronic slopes was lower in patients with lower baseline uACR, but because this group progressed more slowly than those with higher uACR, this translated to a larger relative difference in chronic slopes in this group (86% [36-136] reduction in the chronic slope among those with baseline uACR <30 mg/g compared with a 29% [19-38] reduction for those with baseline uACR ≥2000 mg/g; ptrend<0·0001). INTERPRETATION Empagliflozin slowed the rate of progression of chronic kidney disease among all types of participant in the EMPA-KIDNEY trial, including those with little albuminuria. Albuminuria alone should not be used to determine whether to treat with an SGLT2 inhibitor. FUNDING Boehringer Ingelheim and Eli Lilly.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The EMPA-KIDNEY trial showed that empagliflozin reduced the risk of the primary composite outcome of kidney disease progression or cardiovascular death in patients with chronic kidney disease mainly through slowing progression. We aimed to assess how effects of empagliflozin might differ by primary kidney disease across its broad population. METHODS EMPA-KIDNEY, a randomised, controlled, phase 3 trial, was conducted at 241 centres in eight countries (Canada, China, Germany, Italy, Japan, Malaysia, the UK, and the USA). Patients were eligible if their estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) was 20 to less than 45 mL/min per 1·73 m2, or 45 to less than 90 mL/min per 1·73 m2 with a urinary albumin-to-creatinine ratio (uACR) of 200 mg/g or higher at screening. They were randomly assigned (1:1) to 10 mg oral empagliflozin once daily or matching placebo. Effects on kidney disease progression (defined as a sustained ≥40% eGFR decline from randomisation, end-stage kidney disease, a sustained eGFR below 10 mL/min per 1·73 m2, or death from kidney failure) were assessed using prespecified Cox models, and eGFR slope analyses used shared parameter models. Subgroup comparisons were performed by including relevant interaction terms in models. EMPA-KIDNEY is registered with ClinicalTrials.gov, NCT03594110. FINDINGS Between May 15, 2019, and April 16, 2021, 6609 participants were randomly assigned and followed up for a median of 2·0 years (IQR 1·5-2·4). Prespecified subgroupings by primary kidney disease included 2057 (31·1%) participants with diabetic kidney disease, 1669 (25·3%) with glomerular disease, 1445 (21·9%) with hypertensive or renovascular disease, and 1438 (21·8%) with other or unknown causes. Kidney disease progression occurred in 384 (11·6%) of 3304 patients in the empagliflozin group and 504 (15·2%) of 3305 patients in the placebo group (hazard ratio 0·71 [95% CI 0·62-0·81]), with no evidence that the relative effect size varied significantly by primary kidney disease (pheterogeneity=0·62). The between-group difference in chronic eGFR slopes (ie, from 2 months to final follow-up) was 1·37 mL/min per 1·73 m2 per year (95% CI 1·16-1·59), representing a 50% (42-58) reduction in the rate of chronic eGFR decline. This relative effect of empagliflozin on chronic eGFR slope was similar in analyses by different primary kidney diseases, including in explorations by type of glomerular disease and diabetes (p values for heterogeneity all >0·1). INTERPRETATION In a broad range of patients with chronic kidney disease at risk of progression, including a wide range of non-diabetic causes of chronic kidney disease, empagliflozin reduced risk of kidney disease progression. Relative effect sizes were broadly similar irrespective of the cause of primary kidney disease, suggesting that SGLT2 inhibitors should be part of a standard of care to minimise risk of kidney failure in chronic kidney disease.

Abstract
Cytochrome P450 4F2 (CYP4F2) is an enzyme that is involved in the metabolism of arachidonic acid (AA), vitamin E and K, and xenobiotics including drugs. CYP4F2*3 polymorphism (rs2108622; c.1297G>A; p.Val433Met) has been associated with hypertension, ischemic stroke, and variation in the effectiveness of the anticoagulant drug warfarin. In this study, we characterized wild-type CYP4F2 and 28 CYP4F2 variants, including a Val433Met substitution, detected in 8380 Japanese subjects. The CYP4F2 variants were heterologously expressed in 293FT cells to measure the concentrations of CYP4F2 variant holoenzymes using carbon monoxide-reduced difference spectroscopy, where the wild type and 18 holoenzyme variants showed a peak at 450 nm. Kinetic parameters [Vmax , substrate concentration producing half of Vmax (S50 ), and intrinsic clearance (CL int ) as Vmax /S50 ] of AA ω-hydroxylation were determined for the wild type and 21 variants with enzyme activity. Compared with the wild type, two variants showed significantly decreased CL int values for AA ω-hydroxylation. The values for seven variants could not be determined because no enzymatic activity was detected at the highest substrate concentration used. Three-dimensional structural modeling was performed to determine the reason for reduced enzymatic activity of the CYP4F2 variants. Our findings contribute to a better understanding of CYP4F2 variant-associated diseases and possible future therapeutic strategies. SIGNIFICANCE STATEMENT: CYP4F2 is involved in the metabolism of arachidonic acid and vitamin K, and CYP4F2*3 polymorphisms have been associated with hypertension and variation in the effectiveness of the anticoagulant drug warfarin. This study presents a functional analysis of 28 CYP4F2 variants identified in Japanese subjects, demonstrating that seven gene polymorphisms cause loss of CYP4F2 function, and proposes structural changes that lead to altered function.

Abstract
Mucor rot caused by Mucor piriformis is an emerging postharvest disease of mandarin fruit in California. Natamycin is a newly registered biofungicide for postharvest use on citrus and some other fruits. In the study, baseline sensitivity to natamycin in 50 isolates of M. piriformis was determined in vitro. The mean EC50 (effective concentration to inhibit sporangiospore germination by 50%) and MIC (minimum inhibitory concentration to inhibit mycelial growth by 100%) values were 0.59 μg/ml and less than 1.0 μg/ml, respectively. Natamycin at the label rate of 920 μg/ml alone or in combination with 3% potassium sorbate (PS) or 3% sodium carbonate (SC) applied at 20 or 50°C was evaluated for control of Mucor rot on inoculated 'Tango' mandarin fruit. Natamycin alone reduced Mucor rot incidence on stored mandarin fruit from 100% among nontreated control fruit to approximately 30%, a reduction of more than 70% compared to the nontreated control, while 3% PS and 3% SC had no to little control. When applied at 50°C, natamycin and 3% PS reduced Mucor rot incidence by 65.0 and 31.2%, respectively; while natamycin in combination with 3% PS reduced disease incidence by 92.5% compared to the nontreated control after 2 weeks of storage at 5°C. This combined treatment remained effective even when the application of the treatment was delayed for 6 and 12 h after inoculation. However, the effectiveness of the treatments declined when storage was extended to 3 or 4 weeks. Natamycin can be an effective tool to control Mucor rot on mandarin fruit, and minimizing the period of extended storage could help maintain the control efficacy of natamycin.

Abstract
PURPOSE/OBJECTIVE(S) To describe the patient-reported health-related quality of life (HR-QoL) outcomes at five years for a multicenter randomized trial of tri-modality therapy with iodine-125 brachytherapy, external beam radiation therapy (EBRT), and short- versus long-term androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) for high-risk localized prostate cancer (TRIP/TRIGU0907). MATERIALS/METHODS A total of 332 men with high-risk prostate cancer were randomized to either 6 months of ADT (n = 165) or 30 months of ADT (n = 167) in conjunction with combined modality radiation therapy. For the HR-QoL assessment, general HR-QoL and disease-specific HR-QoL were measured using the Japanese version of the Medical Outcomes Study 8-items Short-Form Health Survey (SF-8) and the Expanded Prostate Cancer Index Composite (EPIC). Patient-reported outcome questionnaires were filled out before ADT initiation, and five years after. Scores were reported as mean with the standard deviation. QoL end points were assessed as the change between pre and post treatment using paired student t-test. Changes in the International Prostate Symptom Scores (IPSS) score, including total score and subscores, were also evaluated. The study was powered according to the primary endpoint of biochemical progression free survival with HR-QoL as a secondary endpoint. In addition, recovery of testosterone level (300ng/dL or higher) was calculated as the cumulative incidence curve and compared between arms by log-rank test. RESULTS The cumulative incidence of biochemical progression, and salvage ADT treatment were not different between the arms. Mean domain scores at baseline were well balanced between the two arms in all HR-QoL. There were no differences in the SF-8 assessment and the total and subscore EPIC assessments between the arms. The average sexual function score was lower in short arm versus long arm; 16.24 versus 20.24 at baseline, but not different at five years, 9.96 versus 7.78 (p = 0.164). There were no significant differences between the arms for the total and subscore IPSS. Significantly higher percentage of patients, 71.7% in the short arm recovered to a normal testosterone level at 6 years after the initiation of ADT compared to 43.2% in long arm (p<0.0001). CONCLUSION At five years after ADT initiation, there were no significant differences in all score changes between the two arms with general HR-QoL and disease-specific HR-QoL. Most of HR-QoL returned to baseline level, and sexual function scores were low from baseline in this population. Two-years' adjuvant ADT did not affect HR-QoL at five years, although it significantly retarded testosterone recovery compared to 6 months of hormone therapy.

Abstract
BACKGROUND This study aimed to identify the current risk factors for coronavirus disease 2019 severity and examine its association with medication use. METHODS We used data from a large United States electronic health record database to conduct an anonymized cohort study of 171,491 patients with coronavirus disease 2019. The study was conducted from January 1, 2020, to August 27, 2021. Data on age, race, sex, history of diseases, and history of medication prescriptions were analyzed using the Cox proportional hazards model analysis to calculate hazard ratios for hospitalization and severe risk. RESULTS Factors that increased the risk of hospitalization and critical care were age ≥ 65 years, male sex, type 2 diabetes, hypertension, interstitial pneumonia, and cardiovascular disease. In particular, age ≥ 65 years significantly increased the risk of hospitalization (hazard ratio, 2.81 [95% confidence interval, 2.58-3.07]; P < 0.001) and critical care (hazard ratio, 3.45 [2.88-4.14]; P < 0.001). In contrast, patients with hyperlipidemia had a reduced risk. However, patients with hyperlipidemia who were not taking statins had a significantly increased risk of hospitalization (hazard ratio, 1.24 [1.16-1.34]; P < 0.001). Sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 inhibitors, angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors, angiotensin II receptor blockers, glucocorticoids, and statins significantly reduced the risk of hospitalization and critical care. The risk of hospitalization and critical care increased in patients of all ethnicities with type 2 diabetes. The factors that significantly increased the risk of hospitalization in all regions were older age, hypertension, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, and cardiovascular disease. CONCLUSION This study identified factors that increase or reduce the risk of severe coronavirus disease. The provision of appropriate drug treatment and modification of lifestyle-related risk factors may reduce coronavirus disease severity.

Abstract
Recombination of vibrationally cold N2+ ions with electrons was studied in the temperature range of 140-250 K. A cryogenic stationary afterglow apparatus equipped with cavity ring-down spectrometer and microwave diagnostics was utilized to probe in situ the time evolutions of number densities of particular rotational and vibrational states of N2+ ions and of electrons. The obtained value of the recombination rate coefficient for the recombination of the vibrational ground state of N2+ with electrons is αv=0 = (2.95 ± 0.50) × 10-7(300/T)(0.28±0.07) cm3 s-1, while that for the first vibrationally excited state was inferred as αv=1 = (4 ± 4) × 10-8 cm3 s-1 at 250 K.

Abstract
BACKGROUND A few studies have been reported on the influence of fetal hiccups on umbilical artery. The aim of this study is to clarify the influence of fetal hiccups on Doppler blood flow waveform (DBFW) of some fetal arteries, and to show the difference in these influences among fetal arteries. OBJECTIVE DBFW of umbilical artery, descending aorta, and middle cerebral artery were recorded at hiccups in normal fetuses between 34th and 40th gestational weeks. The changes on DBFW were classified into three shapes by the direction and the size of the changes. Shape 1: sharp decrease but not to the baseline, Shape 2: sharp decrease to the baseline (absence), and Shape 3: reverse flow. RESULTS At all hiccups, the changes on DBFW of these arteries were observed. These changes were classified into three shapes. Changes of umbilical artery were widely distributed in three shapes depending on when hiccup occurred during cardiac cycle. On the other hand, most changes of the descending aorta and middle cerebral artery were Shape 3 whenever the hiccup occurred during cardiac cycle. CONCLUSION The changes on DBFW of fetal arteries were observed at all hiccups. Changes of umbilical artery were widely distributed in three shapes depending on when hiccup occurred during cardiac cycle. On the other hand, most changes of descending aorta and middle cerebral artery were Shape 3. This is the first study clarified the influence of fetal hiccups on DBFW of some fetal arteries, and showed the difference in these influences among fetal arteries.

Abstract
Single-nucleotide substitutions of human flavin-containing monooxygenase 3 (FMO3) identified in the whole-genome sequences of the updated Japanese population reference panel (now containing 38,000 subjects) were investigated. In this study, 2 stop codon mutations, 2 frameshifts, and 43 amino-acid-substituted FMO3 variants were identified. Among these 47 variants, 1 stop codon mutation, 1 frameshift, and 24 substituted variants were already recorded in the National Center for Biotechnology Information database. Functionally impaired FMO3 variants are known to be associated with the metabolic disorder trimethylaminuria; consequently, the enzymatic activities of the 43 substituted FMO3 variants were investigated. Twenty-seven recombinant FMO3 variants expressed in bacterial membranes had similar activities toward trimethylamine N-oxygenation (~75-125%) to that of wild-type FMO3 (98 min-1). However, 6 recombinant FMO3 variants (Arg51Gly, Val283Ala, Asp286His, Val382Ala, Arg387His, and Phe451Leu) had moderately decreased (≈50%) activities toward trimethylamine N-oxygenation, and 10 recombinant FMO3 variants (Gly11Asp, Gly39Val, Met66Lys, Asn80Lys, Val151Glu, Gly193Arg, Arg387Cys, Thr453Pro, Leu457Trp, and Met497Arg) showed severely decreased FMO3 catalytic activity (<10%). Because of the known deleterious effects of FMO3 C-terminal stop codons, the four truncated FMO3 variants (Val187SerfsTer25, Arg238Ter, Lys416SerfsTer72, and Gln427Ter) were suspected to be inactive with respect to trimethylamine N-oxygenation. The FMO3 p.Gly11Asp and p.Gly193Arg variants were located within the conserved sequences of flavin adenine dinucleotide (positions 9-14) and NADPH (positions 191-196) binding sites, which are important for FMO3 catalytic function. Whole-genome sequence data and kinetic analyses revealed that 20 of the 47 nonsense or missense FMO3 variants had moderately or severely impaired activity toward N-oxygenation of trimethylaminuria. Significance Statement The number of single-nucleotide substitutions in human FMO3 recorded in the expanded Japanese population reference panel database was updated. One novel stop mutation, FMO3 p.Gln427Ter; one novel frameshift (p.Lys416SerfsTer72); and 19 novel amino-acid-substituted FMO3 variants were identified, along with p.Arg238Ter, p.Val187SerfsTer25, and 24 amino-acid-substituted variants already recorded with individual rs numbers. Recombinant FMO3 Gly11Asp, Gly39Val, Met66Lys, Asn80Lys, Val151Glu, Gly193Arg, Arg387Cys, Thr453Pro, Leu457Trp, and Met497Arg variants showed severely decreased FMO3 catalytic activity, possibly associated with the metabolic disorder trimethylaminuria.

Abstract
The drug 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) is the first-choice chemotherapeutic agent against advanced-stage cancers. However, 10% to 30% of treated patients experience grade 3 to 4 toxicity. The deficiency of dihydropyrimidinase (DHPase), which catalyzes the second step of the 5-FU degradation pathway, is correlated with the risk of developing toxicity. Thus, genetic polymorphisms within DPYS, the DHPase-encoding gene, could potentially serve as predictors of severe 5-FU-related toxicity. We identified 12 novel DPYS variants in 3554 Japanese individuals, but the effects of these mutations on function remain unknown. In the current study, we performed in vitro enzymatic analyses of the 12 newly identified DHPase variants. Dihydrouracil or dihydro-5-FU hydrolytic ring-opening kinetic parameters, Km and Vmax , and intrinsic clearance (CLint = Vmax /Km ) of the wild-type DHPase and eight variants were measured. Five of these variants (R118Q, H295R, T418I, Y448H, and T513A) showed significantly reduced CLint compared with that in the wild-type. The parameters for the remaining four variants (V59F, D81H, T136M, and R490H) could not be determined as dihydrouracil and dihydro-5-FU hydrolytic ring-opening activity was undetectable. We also determined DHPase variant protein stability using cycloheximide and bortezomib. The mechanism underlying the observed changes in the kinetic parameters was clarified using blue-native polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and three-dimensional structural modeling. The results suggested that the decrease or loss of DHPase enzymatic activity was due to reduced stability and oligomerization of DHPase variant proteins. Our findings support the use of DPYS polymorphisms as novel pharmacogenomic markers for predicting severe 5-FU-related toxicity in the Japanese population. SIGNIFICANCE STATEMENT: DHPase contributes to the degradation of 5-fluorouracil, and genetic polymorphisms that cause decreased activity of DHPase can cause severe toxicity. In this study, we performed functional analysis of 12 DHPase variants in the Japanese population and identified 9 genetic polymorphisms that cause reduced DHPase function. In addition, we found that the ability to oligomerize and the conformation of the active site are important for the enzymatic activity of DHPase.

Background
Transcatheter left atrial appendage closure (LAAC) provides an alternative to oral anticoagulation for thromboembolic risk reduction in patients with nonvalvular atrial fibrillation (AF). A meta-analysis of previous two randomized trials reported improved rates of hemorrhagic stroke, cardiovascular/unexplained death, and nonprocedural bleeding compared to warfarin (1). Recently, the next-generation LAAC device, the Watchman FLX system, became available, and showed a low incidence of adverse events and a high incidence of anatomic closure (2). This transcatheter stroke prevention has already been approved in Asian countries. However, there is little data of LAAC in Asian population.
Purpose
This study sought to assess efficacy and safety of LAAC for patients with nonvalvular AF in Asia.
Methods
The TERMINATOR (Transcatheter Modification of Left Atrial Appendage by Obliteration with Device) registry is a multicenter nonrandomized study in Japan. This enrolled patients who underwent LAAC in 23 Japanese institutions. The LAAC was indicated for patients with nonvalvular atrial fibrillation in whom oral anticoagulation is required, but who have a risk of bleeding (history of BARC type 3 bleeding or HAS-BLED score ≥3 points). Baseline patient and procedural characteristics and clinical outcomes were evaluated.
Results
A total of 729 patients were enrolled between September 2019 and November 2021. The mean age was 74.9±8.8 years and the mean CHA2DS2-VASc score was 4.7±1.5. The Watchman generation 2.5 and FLX system were used in 469 (64.3%) and 260 patients (35.7%), respectively. Procedural success was achieved in 722 patients (99.0%). In-hospital adverse events were as follows; 6 tamponades (0.8%), 3 pericardial effusion (0.4%), 2 device embolization (0.3%), no stroke (0%), and no death (0%). During follow-up, device-related thrombus and all-cause death were reported in 16 (2.2%) and 23 patients (3.2%), respectively.
Conclusions
LAAC with the Watchman system provides compatible efficacy and safety outcomes in Asian population.

Abstract
Transient receptor potential vanilloid 1 (TRPV1) is mainly expressed in nociceptive primary sensory neurons and acts as a sensor for heat and capsaicin. The functional properties of TRPV1 have been reported to vary among species and, in some cases, the species difference in its thermal sensitivity is likely to be associated with thermal habitat conditions. To clarify the functional properties and physiological roles of TRPV1 in aquatic vertebrates, we examined the temperature and chemical sensitivities of TRPV1 in masu salmon (Oncorhynchus masou ishikawae, Om) belonging to a family of salmonids that generally prefer cool environments. First, behavioral experiments were conducted using a video tracking system. Application of capsaicin, a TRPV1 agonist, induced locomotor activities in juvenile Om. Increasing the ambient temperature also elicited locomotor activity potentiated by capsaicin. RT-PCR revealed TRPV1 expression in gills as well as spinal cord. Next, electrophysiological analyses of OmTRPV1 were performed using a two-electrode voltage-clamp technique with a Xenopus oocyte expression system. Heat stimulation evoked an inward current in heterologously expressed OmTRPV1. In addition, capsaicin produced current responses in OmTRPV1-expressing oocytes, but higher concentrations were needed for its activation compared to the mammalian orthologues. These results indicate that Om senses environmental stimuli (heat and capsaicin) through the activation of TRPV1, and this channel may play important roles in avoiding environments disadvantageous for survival in aquatic vertebrates. Capsaicin evoked behavioral responses of Oncorhynchus masou ishikawae (Om). The behavioral response to heat was potentiated by capsaicin. Heterologously expressed OmTRPV1 was activated by heat and capsaicin.

Abstract
Objectives To investigate the prevalence of post coronavirus disease (COVID-19) condition of the Omicron variant in comparison to other strains. Study design A single-center cross-sectional study. Methods Patients who recovered from Omicron COVID-19 infection (Omicron group) were interviewed via telephone, and patients infected with other strains (control group) were surveyed via a self-reporting questionnaire. Data on patients’ characteristics, information regarding the acute-phase COVID-19, as well as presence and duration of COVID-19-related symptoms were obtained. Post COVID-19 condition in this study was defined as a symptom that lasted for at least 2 months, within 3 months of COVID-19 onset. We investigated and compared the prevalence of post COVID-19 condition in both groups after performing propensity score matching. Results We conducted interviews for 53 out of 128 patients with Omicron and obtained 502 responses in the control group. After matching cases with controls, 18 patients from both groups had improved covariate balance of the factors: older adult, female sex, obesity, and vaccination status. There were no significant differences in the prevalence of each post COVID-19 condition between the two groups. The number of patients with at least one post COVID-19 condition in the Omicron and control groups were 1 (5.6%) and 10 (55.6%) (p = 0.003), respectively. Conclusions The prevalence of post Omicron COVID-19 conditions was less than that of the other strains. Further research with a larger sample size is needed to investigate the precise epidemiology of post COVID-19 condition of Omicron, and its impact on health-related quality of life and social productivity.

Abstract
"Leukerin® powder 10%" containing mercaptopurine (6-MP) is an oral anticancer drug that requires careful handling. As a powder formulation, there are risks of exposure due to scattering during dispensing and possible 6-MP contamination to other drugs due to adhesion to the packaging machine. We previously reported that wiping with an alcohol-containing towel is useful for removing scattered powder after dispensing. However, it is recommended to wipe disk-type powder-packaging machines with water instead of cleaning with the alcohol-containing towel. Hence, we scattered 6-MP powder 100 mg (total amount of 6-MP: 10 mg), and then wiped with water three times using different types of cloth each time. We confirmed that third time wiping cloth did not have any 6-MP. Furthermore, we confirmed that the adhering 6-MP could be removed by wipe-cleaning (water-wiping twice and dry-wiping once) after dispensing 6-MP powder at two pharmacies that routinely dispensed 6-MP powder using a disk-type powder-packaging machine. In addition, we confirmed the adhesion of 6-MP in parts of the machine not cleaned by wipe-cleaning and also in parts that were washed only with water, in both the pharmacies. Based on the above observations, we recommend the following steps for cleaning disk-type powder-packaging machines after dispensing 6-MP powder: (1) wipe-cleaning that includes water-wiping twice and then dry-wiping once, (2) cleaning all areas of the packaging machine, and (3) wipe-cleaning with water before washing with water.

Abstract
Dihydropyrimidine dehydrogenase (DPD), encoded by the DPYD gene, is the rate-limiting enzyme in 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) degradation. In Caucasians, four DPYD risk variants are recognized to be responsible for interindividual variations in the development of 5-FU toxicity. However, these risk variants have not been identified in Asian populations. Recently, 41 DPYD allelic variants, including 15 novel single nucleotide variants, were identified in 3,554 Japanese individuals by analyzing their whole-genome sequences; however, the effects of these variants on DPD enzymatic activity remain unknown. In the present study, an in vitro analysis was performed on 41 DPD allelic variants and three DPD risk variants to elucidate the changes in enzymatic activity. Wild-type and 44 DPD-variant proteins were heterologously expressed in 293FT cells. DPD expression levels and dimerization of DPD were determined by immunoblotting after SDS-PAGE and blue native PAGE, respectively. The enzymatic activity of DPD was evaluated by quantification of dihydro-5-FU, a metabolite of 5-FU, using high-performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry. Moreover, we used 3D simulation modeling to analyze the effect of amino acid substitutions on the conformation of DPD. Among the 41 DPD variants, seven exhibited drastically decreased intrinsic clearance (CLint) compared to the wild-type protein. Moreover, R353C and G926V exhibited no enzymatic activity, and the band patterns observed in the immunoblots after blue native PAGE indicated that DPD dimerization is required for its enzymatic activity. Our data suggest that these variants may contribute to the significant inter-individual variability observed in the pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of 5-FU. In our study, nine DPD variants exhibited drastically decreased or no enzymatic activity due to dimerization inhibition or conformational changes in each domain. Especially, the rare DPYD variants, although at very low frequencies, may serve as important pharmacogenomic markers associated with the severe 5-FU toxicity in Japanese population.

Abstract
BackgroundNeuropsychiatric systemic lupus erythematosus (NPSLE) is one of severe organ manifestations and directly associated with neuropsychiatric damages, such as cerebral vascular accident, cognitive impairment, or seizures. However, factors associated with damage accrual of neuropsychiatric and non-neuropsychiatric domains in NPSLE patients remain unknown.ObjectivesThe aim of this study was to identify factors associated with damage accrual in patients with NPSLE.MethodsWe reviewed all patients with SLE who had attended our hospital between January 2010 to December 2020 retrospectively and identified those with NPSLE. We analyzed clinical characteristics and laboratory data including cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) in association with the Systemic Lupus International Collaborating Clinics/American College of Rheumatology (SLICC/ACR) damage index (SDI) progression after the onset of NPSLE.Results461 patients with SLE were reviewed. Among them, 37 (8.0%) were diagnosed with NPSLE. Thirty-six patients were included in the analysis after excluding one patient with insufficient information. Seventeen (47.2%) patients were diagnosed with NPSLE at the same time with SLE diagnosis and 19 patients were diagnosed at relapse. At NPSLE onset, the mean age was 33.7 years, 35 were female, and the mean SLEDAI-2K was 21.8. Eighteen (50.0%) patients had active lupus nephritis simultaneously at the onset of NPSLE. The most frequent NPSLE types according to the 1999 ACR classification were lupus headache in 10 patients, followed by cerebrovascular disease in 7, seizure disorders in 6, acute confusional state, psychosis and mononeuropathy in 3, and aseptic meningitis in 2. All patients were treated with glucocorticoids, and the mean initial dose of prednisolone was 52.3 mg/day with steroid pulse therapy in 19 patients. Thirty (83.3%) patients were treated with concomitant immunosuppressive treatments. During the observation period with the mean of 10.0 years, 17 (47.2%) patients developed at least one point of SDI. Among them, 9 patients (25.0%) had neuropsychiatric damage progression including cerebrovascular accident in 6, seizures requiring drug treatment for more than 6 months in 2, and cognitive impairment in 1. Non-neuropsychiatric damage was also increased such musculoskeletal in 5, ocular in 3, cardiovascular in 2, renal, gastrointestinal, premature gonadal failure, diabetes, and malignancy in each one case. Neither neuropsychiatric nor overall damage progression were associated with SLEDAI-2K, anti-cardiolipin antibodies positivity, abnormal electroencephalogram, abnormal single photon-emission computed tomography at NPSLE onset or kinds of immunosuppressive treatments. In 21 patients who underwent CSF examination, the high level of CSF IL-6 was associated with neuropsychiatric damage progression (p=0.032). Also, high levels of CSF protein (p=0.030), cell counts (p=0.007), and IL-6 (p=0.032) were associated with overall SDI progression.ConclusionCSF IL-6 concentrations are associated with neuropsychiatric damage progression, and high CSF protein, cell counts and IL-6 at onset in patients with NPSLE can predict overall damage accrual.References[1]Liang MH, Corzillius M, Bae SC, et al.

Abstract
BackgroundThe current gold standard for the diagnosis and classification, assessment of the severity of lupus nephritis (LN) is a renal biopsy. On the other hand, since the procedure is highly invasive, there is a pressing need to identify biomarkers for predicting the presence and its histological severity of LN. In addition, the background pathogenesis of each histological findings is not clearly understood.ObjectivesThe purpose of this study was to elucidate the urine biomarkers for predicting the presence and the severity of histological findings of LN, and to search the pathogenic signal pathway.MethodsUrine samples from 24 biopsy-proven active LN patients were initially screened for the levels of 1305 distinct human proteins using an aptamer-based-targeted proteomic assay. We developed histological scoring system based on ISN/RPS lesion definitions and classification, NIH activity and chronicity score. Two experienced evaluators assessed the histological scores. Cluster analysis and pathway analysis were performed.ResultsA total of 24 LN patients were included: 20 (83%) had a proliferative histological class (III or IV +/-V), 4 (17%) pure membranous (V). Through cluster analysis, several histological subgroups were extracted according to correlation with each histological finding, and proteins which corelated with each histological scores were analyzed. We focused on two subgroups: one in which including active glomerular histological findings (endocapillary hypercellularity, karyorrhexis, neutrophil infiltration, subendothelial deposits) and the other in which including interstitial histological findings (interstitial inflammation, interstitial fibrosis, tubular atrophy). Histological scores in the former group showed strong positive correlation with protein group which contained 59 proteins (Group A), including CCL21, CXCL10, VCAM1. Histological scores in the latter group corelated with another protein group which contained 85 proteins (Group B), including MCP-1, CCL11. Ingenuity Pathway Analysis showed 16 pathways (PDGF Signaling, Granulocyte Adhesion and Diapedesis, etc) were upregulated in Group A and 11 pathways (IL-17 signaling, Fibrosis signaling pathway, etc) upregulated in Group B. Among group A and group B urine proteins, those showed strong correlation between respective histological findings were validated with ELISA assays.ConclusionAn aptamer-based-targeted proteomic assay screening by combining with renal histological scoring system suggested several urine proteins can predict the severity and the presence of major renal histological findings, and suggested to be related with the pathogenesis in patients with LN.Disclosure of InterestsKazuoto Hiramoto: None declared, Shuntaro Saito: None declared, Hironari Hanaoka: None declared, Katsuya Suzuki: None declared, Jun Kikuchi: None declared, Hiroyuki Fukui: None declared, Ryo Takano Employee of: Mitsubishi Tanabe Pharma Corporation Sohyaku, Fumihiko Miyoshi Employee of: Mitsubishi Tanabe Pharma Corporation Sohyaku, Noriyasu Seki Employee of: Mitsubishi Tanabe Pharma Corporation Sohyaku, Kunio Sugahara Employee of: Mitsubishi Tanabe Pharma Corporation Sohyaku, Yuko Kaneko: None declared, Tsutomu Takeuchi: None declared.

Abstract
BackgroundCytomegalovirus (CMV) infection is one of serious opportunistic infections for immunosuppressed patients, therefore, identifying patients at risk for CMV infection is of importance. However, no prospective study about CMV infection in systemic rheumatic disease has been reported.ObjectivesTo identify risk factors relevant with CMV infection in patients with systemic rheumatic disease during intensive remission induction therapy.MethodsConsecutive systemic rheumatic disease cases who started intensive immunosuppressive therapy from February 2017 until February 2019 were enrolled. Serum CMV-IgG was measured before the induction therapy, and subsequently, CMV pp65 antigen was monitored weekly. Patients were divided into 2 groups according to the presence or absence of CMV infection, and risk factors for CMV infection were analyzed.Results157 patients consisting of 136 CMV-IgG positive and 21 CMV-IgG negative patients were enrolled in the study. Mean age was 60.8 ± 17.4 y/o, and female was 70.7%. The underlying diseases were following; vasculitides 54, systemic lupus erythematosus 27, polymyositis/dermatomyositis 25, rheumatoid arthritis 14, IgG4-related disease 13, mixed connected tissue disease 6, Behçet disease 5, adult-onset Still’s disease 4, and others 9. The initial dose of glucocorticoid (GC) was 48.4 ± 11.5 mg/day (0.91 ± 0.16 mg/kg/day) as prednisolone (PSL) with additional methylprednisolone (mPSL) pulse therapy being conducted in 44 (28.0%). Concomitant immunosuppressive therapies were intravenous cyclophosphamide (IVCY) in 55, calcineurin inhibitor 27, mycophenolate mofetil 16, hydroxychloroquine 5, and methotrexate 4. Concomitant biological agents were rituximab 12, tocilizumab 6, infliximab 2, golimumab 1, and abatacept 1. CMV infection occurred in 52 patients (33.1%), and all of them were CMV-IgG positive before induction therapy (38.2% in the CMV-IgG positive patients). Univariable analysis revealed initial PSL dose >0.91 mg/kg/day (odds ratio [OR] 5.2, p<0.01), IVCY (OR 3.4, p<0.01), diabetes mellitus (OR 5.2, p<0.01), and a history of malignancy (OR 2.9, p=0.02) were independent risk factors for CMV infection. CMV antiviral drugs were administered in 22 patients (42.3%). At the first detection of CMV pp65 antigen, PSL dose ≥37.5 mg/day (OR 5294.8, p<0.01), CMV pp65 antigen-positive cells ≥2 cells/2 slides (OR 16.0, p = 0.04), and serum albumin levels <3.0 g/dL (OR 26.3, p=0.01) were associated with subsequent CMV antiviral drug administration.ConclusionCMV infection occurred only in CMV-IgG positive patients with systemic rheumatic diseases who were undergoing intensive remission induction therapy. CMV infection was related with treatment regimen and comorbidities, and the necessity of CMV antiviral treatment was predicted with prednisolone dose, the number of CMV pp65 antigen positive cells, and albumin levels at the first detection of CMV pp65 antigen.Disclosure of InterestsNone declared

Abstract
BackgroundThe SARS-CoV-2 messenger RNA (mRNA) vaccines BNT162b2 (Pfizer-BioNTech) and mRNA-1273 (Moderna) have benefitted all countries amid the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) crisis. Whereas both of them have shown efficacy in preventing COVID-19 illness in healthy participants, there is paucity of data about immunogenicity and safety of mRNA COVID-19 vaccines in patients with autoimmune, inflammatory rheumatic disease. Recent observational studies evaluated mainly BNT162b2, suggesting that glucocorticoids, immunosuppressive agents impair SARS-CoV-2 vaccine responses. However, difference in immune reactions and safety between BNT162b2 and mRNA-1273 have not been clarified in patients with inflammatory rheumatic diseases.ObjectivesTo assess humoral and T cell immune responses and safety profiles after two doses of different mRNA vaccine against SARS-CoV-2; BNT162b2 and mRNA-1273.MethodsWe enrolled consecutive, previously uninfected patients with inflammatory rheumatic diseases receiving mRNA vaccine including BNT162b2 and mRNA-1273. Healthy participants receiving BNT162b2 were also recruited as control. Blood samples were obtained 3weeks, 2 months, 3 months, 4 months, and 6 months after second dose of vaccines. We measured titres of neutralizing antibodies against SARS-CoV-2 and calculated seroconversion rates to evaluate humoral responses. We also assessed T-cell immunity responses by using interferon releasing assay against SARS-CoV-2 in a part of the patients. Answers to questionnaires about adverse reactions were obtained from participants.ResultsA total of 974 patients with inflammatory rheumatic diseases and healthy 630 control participants were enrolled. Among them, 796 patients received BNT162b2, 178 patients received mRNA-1273, and all control participants received BNT162b2. Seroconversion rates and neutralizing antibody titres 3 weeks after vaccination were significantly higher in patients with mRNA-1273 and healthy participants with BNT162b2 compared with patients with BNT162b2; seroconversion rates, 97.2% vs 99.5% vs 83.3%, p<0.001; titers of neutralizing antibodies, 29.4±33.9 IU/mL vs 23.9±14.2 IU/mL vs 10.8±16.5 IU/mL, p<0.001, respectively. On another front, T cell reaction against SARS-CoV-2 was similar in both patients with mRNA-1273 and BNT162b2; interferon gamma levels for antigen 1, 1.2±2.1 IU/mL vs 0.8±2.5 IU/mL, p=0.23; and for antigen 2, 1.4±1.9 IU/mL vs 1.0±2.1 IU/mL, p=0.11, respectively. Regarding adverse reaction of each mRNA vaccine, the frequency of systemic adverse reactions including fever and general fatigue are also significantly higher in patients with mRNA-1273 and healthy controls than patients with BNT162b2; fever, 48.0% vs 44.9% vs 10.2%, p<0.001; general fatigue, 70.4% vs 61.8% vs 31.2%, p<0.001, respectively). In longitudinal measurement, neutralizing antibody titres in patients with BNT162b2 were decreased more rapidly than those in healthy controls; 3.3±3.2 IU/mL in patients with BNT162b2 at 4 months and 3.2±4.7 IU/mL in healthy controls with BNT162b2 at 6 months. We identified age, glucocorticoid dose (prednisolone > 7.5mg), use of immunosuppressants including methotrexate, mycophenolate, cyclophosphamide, and tacrolimus are associated with rapid attenuation of humoral responses in patients with BNT162b2.ConclusionOur results demonstrated a significant higher humoral immunogenicity and frequency of systemic adverse reaction of the SARS-CoV-2 mRNA-1273 (Moderna) compared with the BNT162b2 (Pfizer-BioNTech) in inflammatory rheumatic disease patients. Glucocorticoid and immunosuppressive agents impaired induction and sustention of neutralizing antibody, and earlier third booster vaccination may be required within 4 months, especially for those receiving BNT162b2.References[1]Steensels D, Pierlet N, Penders J et al.

Abstract
Background: Platinum derivatives are important treatment options for patients with esophageal carcinoma (EC), and a predictive marker for platinum-based therapy is needed for precision medicine. Patients and methods: This study contained two cohorts consisting of EC patients treated using platinum-based chemoradiation therapy (CRT) as the first-line and another external cohort of nationwide clinicogenomic data from the BioBank Japan (BBJ). Results: Genome-wide association study (GWAS) of therapeutic outcomes, refractory disease or not, following platinum-based CRT as first-line in 94 patients in the first cohort suggested the association of 89 SNPs using p < 0.0001. The top 10 SNPs selected from each chromosomal region by odds ratio were evaluated for progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) hazard ratios in the first cohort, resulting in four candidates (p < 0.0025). The four selected candidates were re-evaluated in another cohort of 24 EC patients, which included patients prospectively enrolled in this study to fulfill the sample size statistically suggested by the results of the first cohort, and of the four, only rs3815544 was replicated (p < 0.0125). Furthermore, this candidate genotype of rs3815544 proceeded to the re-evaluation study in an external cohort consisting of EC patients treated with platinum derivatives and/or by radiation therapy as the first-line treatment in BBJ, which confirmed that the alternative allele (G) of rs3815544 was statistically associated with non-response (SD or PD) to platinum-based therapy in EC patients (odds ratio = 1.801, p = 0.048). The methylation QTL database as well as online clinicogenomic databases suggested that the region including rs3815544 may regulate MSX1 expression through CpG methylation, and this down-regulation was statistically associated with poor prognosis after platinum-based therapies for EC. Conclusion: rs3815544 is a novel candidate predictive marker for platinum-based EC therapy.

Abstract
Background Anti-programmed cell death protein 1 (PD-1) antibody monotherapy (PD1) has led to favorable responses in advanced non-acral cutaneous melanoma among Caucasian populations; however, recent studies suggest that this therapy has limited efficacy in mucosal melanoma (MCM). Thus, advanced MCM patients are candidates for PD1 plus anti-cytotoxic T lymphocyte-associated antigen-4 (CTLA-4) combination therapy (PD1 + CTLA4). Data on the efficacy of immunotherapy in MCM, however, are limited. We aimed to compare the efficacies of PD1 and PD1 + CTLA4 in Japanese advanced MCM patients. Patients and methods We retrospectively assessed advanced MCM patients treated with PD1 or PD1 + CTLA4 at 24 Japanese institutions. Patient baseline characteristics, clinical responses (RECIST), progression-free survival (PFS), and overall survival (OS) were estimated using Kaplan–Meier analysis, and toxicity was assessed to estimate the efficacy and safety of PD1 and PD1 + CTLA4. Results Altogether, 329 patients with advanced MCM were included in this study. PD1 and PD1 + CTLA4 were used in 263 and 66 patients, respectively. Baseline characteristics were similar between both treatment groups, except for age (median age 71 versus 65 years; P < 0.001). No significant differences were observed between the PD1 and PD1 + CTLA4 groups with respect to objective response rate (26% versus 29%; P = 0.26) or PFS and OS (median PFS 5.9 months versus 6.8 months; P = 0.55, median OS 20.4 months versus 20.1 months; P = 0.55). Cox multivariate survival analysis revealed that PD1 + CTLA4 did not prolong PFS and OS (PFS: hazard ratio 0.83, 95% confidence interval 0.58-1.19, P = 0.30; OS: HR 0.89, 95% confidence interval 0.57-1.38, P = 0.59). The rate of ≥grade 3 immune-related adverse events was higher in the PD1 + CTLA4 group than in the PD1 group (53% versus 17%; P < 0.001). Conclusions First-line PD1 + CTLA4 demonstrated comparable clinical efficacy to PD1 in Japanese MCM patients, but with a higher rate of immune-related adverse events. Anti-PD-1 plus anti-CTLA-4 antibody therapy (PD1 + CTLA4) is an option for patients with advanced mucosal melanoma (MCM). Data on the efficacy of PD1 + CTLA4 compared with PD-1 monotherapy (PD1) for MCM, however, are limited. We retrospectively analyzed data from 329 Japanese patients with advanced MCM treated with PD1 or PD1 + CTLA4. No significant differences in objective response rate, progression-free survival, or overall survival were observed. Immune-related adverse events resulting in treatment cessation were higher in the PD1 + CTLA4 group.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
For patients with severe heart failure (HF) who are not eligible for transplantation, there is destination therapy (DT) that uses a continuous flow left ventricular assist device (LVAD). Implantation of LVAD improves HF and can be expected to improve the prognosis of life. Elderly refractory HF patients with non-responders for cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) may benefit from LVAD as DT. In considering indications of LVAD as DT for the elderly in Japan, conditions such as a low risk of Heart Mate Risk Score (HMRS) have been raised. HMRS has been shown to correlate with mortality in the cohort of LVAD patients enrolled in the Heartmate II trials.
Purpose
Because elderly CRT non-responder refractory HF patients are not indicated for transplantation and may benefit from LVAD as DT in Japan, we aimed to investigate the HMRS and prognosis among elderly CRT non-responders.
Methods
Of 467 patients underwent CRT implantation between 2000 and 2015, 157 were aged 65–75 years old. Of which 59 patients who could be determined to be non-responders based on echocardiographic data were included in this study. The primary endpoint was all-cause mortality, the secondary was readmission for HF and appropriate implantable cardioverter defibrillator (ICD) therapy.
Results
The patients' mean age was 68 years, males were 71%. The mean serum creatinine value was 1.1 mg/dl, albumin was 3.8 mg/dl, and BNP was 383 pg/ml. The mean left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) was 26%. The subjects were divided into 3 groups according to HMRS. The average of HMRS was 2.2, the low-risk group included 17 (29%) patients, the medium was 22 (37%), and the high was 20 (34%). There was no significant difference in age, LVEF, BNP, and NYHA functional classification at the time of CRT implantation between three groups. In the low-risk group, creatinine and INR were significantly lower, and albumin was significantly higher compared to the high-risk group. BNP tended to be lower in the low-risk group, but there was no significant difference. The mortality rate by HMRS was 12% in the low-risk group, 36% in the medium-risk group, and 50% in the high-risk group. On the Kaplan-Meier analysis, the low-risk group had a significantly lower mortality rate than the high-risk group (Figure). Furthermore, focusing on HF readmission, the rate of readmission was 59% in the low-risk group, 86% in the medium -risk group, and 65% in the high-risk group, and there was no significant difference between three groups. There was also no significant difference in appropriate ICD therapy between three groups.
Conclusion
Approximately 30% of elderly non-responders of CRT are in the low-risk group by HMRS and their mortality was lower than that of the other two groups. These elderly CRT non-responder patients might be considered a candidate for DT in Japan.

Background
Although I-123 meta-iodobenzylguanidine (mIBG) has been applied to patients with chronic heart failure (CHF), a diagnostic tool for differential prediction of fatal arrhythmic events (ArE) and heart-failure death (HFD) has been pursued.
Purpose
The aim of this study was to create a calculator of mortality risk for differentiating mode of cardiac death using a machine learning (ML) method, and to test the accuracy in a new cohort of patients with CHF.
Methods
A total of 529 patients with CHF was used as the training database for ML. The ArE group consisted of patients with arrhythmic death, sudden cardiac death and appropriate therapy by implantable cardioverter defibrillator. A heart-to-mediastinum ratio (H/M) standardized to the medium-energy collimator condition was calculated with a planar anterior mIBG scintigram. The best classifier models for predicting HFD and ArE were determined by four-fold cross validation. Input variables included age, sex, New York Heart Association (NYHA) functional class, left ventricular ejection fraction, ischemic etiology, mIBG H/M and washout rate, and b-type natriuretic peptide (BNP) or NT Pro BNP, estimated glomerular filtration rate, hemoglobin, and complications such as diabetes and hypertension. After creating the ML-based model, the constructed classifier functions for ArE, HFD, and survival were exported for subsequent use. A new cohort of patients (n = 312, age 67 ± 13 years, 2015 or later) was used to test the ML-based model.
Results
The training database included 141 events (27%) with ArE (7%) and HFD (20%). Receiver-operating characteristic analysis by four-fold validation showed area under the curve value of 0.90 for HFD and 0.73 for ArE. Among various ML methods, the logistic regression method demonstrated the most stable calculation of the probability of ArE followed by random forest and gradient boosted tree methods. Therefore, the logistic-regression method was used for calculating both HFD and ArE probabilities. In the test cohort, patients with a high HFD probability >8% resulted in 6.3-fold higher HFD than those with low probability (≤ 8%). Patients with high ArE probability >8% showed 2.5-fold higher ArE than those with low probability (≤ 8%).
Conclusion
The ML-based mortality risk calculator could be used for stratifying patients at high and low risks, which might be useful for estimating appropriate treatment strategy.

Abstract
Pulsating aurorae (PsA) are caused by the intermittent precipitations of magnetospheric electrons (energies of a few keV to a few tens of keV) through wave-particle interactions, thereby depositing most of their energy at altitudes ~ 100 km. However, the maximum energy of precipitated electrons and its impacts on the atmosphere are unknown. Herein, we report unique observations by the European Incoherent Scatter (EISCAT) radar showing electron precipitations ranging from a few hundred keV to a few MeV during a PsA associated with a weak geomagnetic storm. Simultaneously, the Arase spacecraft has observed intense whistler-mode chorus waves at the conjugate location along magnetic field lines. A computer simulation based on the EISCAT observations shows immediate catalytic ozone depletion at the mesospheric altitudes. Since PsA occurs frequently, often in daily basis, and extends its impact over large MLT areas, we anticipate that the PsA possesses a significant forcing to the mesospheric ozone chemistry in high latitudes through high energy electron precipitations. Therefore, the generation of PsA results in the depletion of mesospheric ozone through high-energy electron precipitations caused by whistler-mode chorus waves, which are similar to the well-known effect due to solar energetic protons triggered by solar flares.

Abstract
We search for gravitational-wave signals produced by cosmic strings in the Advanced LIGO and Virgo full O3 dataset. Search results are presented for gravitational waves produced by cosmic string loop features such as cusps, kinks, and, for the first time, kink-kink collisions. A template-based search for short-duration transient signals does not yield a detection. We also use the stochastic gravitational-wave background energy density upper limits derived from the O3 data to constrain the cosmic string tension Gμ as a function of the number of kinks, or the number of cusps, for two cosmic string loop distribution models. Additionally, we develop and test a third model that interpolates between these two models. Our results improve upon the previous LIGO-Virgo constraints on Gμ by 1 to 2 orders of magnitude depending on the model that is tested. In particular, for the one-loop distribution model, we set the most competitive constraints to date: Gμ≲4×10^{-15}. In the case of cosmic strings formed at the end of inflation in the context of grand unified theories, these results challenge simple inflationary models.

Abstract
We search for gravitational-wave signals produced by cosmic strings in the Advanced LIGO and Virgo full O3 dataset. Search results are presented for gravitational waves produced by cosmic string loop features such as cusps, kinks, and, for the first time, kink-kink collisions. A template-based search for short-duration transient signals does not yield a detection. We also use the stochastic gravitational-wave background energy density upper limits derived from the O3 data to constrain the cosmic string tension Gμ as a function of the number of kinks, or the number of cusps, for two cosmic string loop distribution models. Additionally, we develop and test a third model that interpolates between these two models. Our results improve upon the previous LIGO-Virgo constraints on Gμ by 1 to 2 orders of magnitude depending on the model that is tested. In particular, for the one-loop distribution model, we set the most competitive constraints to date: Gμ≲4×10^{-15}. In the case of cosmic strings formed at the end of inflation in the context of grand unified theories, these results challenge simple inflationary models.

Abstract
A 31-year-old woman who was clinically diagnosed with Silver-Russell syndrome (SRS) in childhood was admitted with complaints of dyspnea. She had hypercapnic respiratory failure accompanied by nocturnal hypoventilation. Computed tomography revealed systemic muscle atrophy and superior mesenteric artery syndrome; however, the bilateral lung fields were normal. She was treated with nocturnal noninvasive positive pressure ventilation and showed improvement of respiratory failure. In this case, loss of methylation on chromosome 11p15 and maternal uniparental disomy of chromosome 7, which are the common causes of SRS, were not detected. This is a rare case of adult SRS manifesting as chronic hypercapnic respiratory failure.

Abstract
UNLABELLED The effects of the age at estrogen replacement therapy (ERT) initiation on bone quality in Turner syndrome were evaluated using trabecular bone score. Early puberty ERT positively correlated with increase in bone quality. Early initiation of ERT is necessary for the acquisition of bone quality as well as bone density. INTRODUCTION Studies have reported associations between bone mineral density and estrogen replacement therapy (ERT) in Turner syndrome (TS) patients; however, few studies exist on the effect on bone quality. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of the age at ERT initiation on bone quality of Japanese TS patients, cross-sectionally and longitudinally. METHODS Cross-sectionally, 95 TS patients were divided into three groups based on their age at initiation of ERT: A (12-14 years, 11 patients), B (15-17 years, 47 patients), and C (over 18 years, 37 patients). To assess bone quality, trabecular bone score (TBS) was used. The effects of age at initiation and duration of ERT on TBS were examined using multiple regression analysis. In the longitudinal study, 48 patients who underwent dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry multiple times were divided into three groups: D (12-14 years, 8 patients), E (15-17 years, 18 patients), and F (over 18 years, 22 patients). Each group was analyzed for the rate of change in TBS per year. RESULTS Cross-sectionally, the TBS showed significant differences among the three groups (TBS A, 1.302; B, 1.299; C, 1.245) (p = 0.013); group C was significantly lower than B (p = 0.014); bone quality was degraded. Multiple regression analysis revealed that age at ERT initiation significantly affected the increase in TBS (p = 0.002). Longitudinally, the rate of change of TBS was not significantly different in the three groups (p = 0.73). CONCLUSION Early initiation of ERT may have positive effects on bone quality in TS. Large prospective studies will be needed.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Chromodomain helicase DNA-binding (CHD) proteins play important roles in developmental processes. CHD3, a member of the CHD family of proteins, was reported to be a cause of a neurodevelopmental syndrome by Snijders Blok et al., but only a small number of probands have been reported. CASE REPORT The patient was a 9-year-old female with severe intellectual disability, speech impairment, autism, joint laxity and dysmorphisms. Whole exome sequencing revealed a de novo missense variant in CHD3 (NM_001005273:exon18: c.2896C > T:p.R966W). CONCLUSION We report a case with a pathogenic variant in the CHD3 gene. Our report indicates that CHD3 analysis is helpful for diagnosis of the cases with neurodevelopmental disorders, joint laxity, and coarse facial phenotype.

Abstract
The oxygenation of food-derived trimethylamine to its N-oxide is a representative reaction mediated by human flavin-containing monooxygenase 3 (FMO3). Impaired FMO3 enzymatic activity is associated with trimethylaminuria (accumulation of substrate), whereas trimethylamine N-oxide (metabolite) is associated with arteriosclerosis. We previously reported FMO3 single-nucleotide and/or haplotype variants with low FMO3 metabolic capacity using urinary phenotyping and the whole-genome sequencing of Japanese populations. Here, we further analyze Japanese volunteers with self-reported malodor and interrogate an updated Japanese database for novel FMO3 single-nucleotide and/or haplotype variants. After 3 years of follow up, seven probands were found to harbor the known impaired FMO3 variant p.(Gly191Cys) identified in the database or novel variants/haplotypes including p.(Met66Val), p.(Arg223Gln), p.(Glu158Lys;Glu308Gly;Arg492Trp), and p.(Glu158Lys;Glu308Gly;Pro496Ser). The known severe mutation p.(Cys197Ter) (a TG deletion) and four variants including p.(Tyr269His) and p.(Pro496Ser) were first detected in the updated genome panel. Among previously unanalyzed FMO3 variants, the trimethylamine/benzydamine N-oxygenation activities of recombinant p.(Met66Val), p.(Arg223Gln), p.(Tyr269His), p.(Glu158Lys;Glu308Gly;Arg492Trp), and p.(Glu158Lys;Glu308Gly;Pro496Ser) FMO3 variant proteins were severely decreased (Vmax/Km <10% of wild-type). Although the present novel mutations or alleles were relatively rare, both in self-reported Japanese trimethylaminuria sufferers and in the genomic database panel, three common FMO3 missense or deletion variants severely impaired FMO3-mediated N-oxygenation of trimethylamine.

Abstract
Botrytis cinerea on grapes causes bunch rot at both pre- and postharvest stages, in which losses can reach up to 100%. Chemical control primarily relies on the prophylactic use of site-specific fungicides. Repeated applications of these products raise the risk of fungicide resistance development in B. cinerea populations, which can result in disease control failures. To determine the extent of resistance, B. cinerea isolates were collected from grape clusters in the northwest and southwest grape growing regions of Michigan in 2014 and 2018 (n = 115 and 125, respectively). These isolates were phenotyped using discriminatory doses of eight fungicides to determine the levels of resistance. Fungicide resistance increased from 2014 to 2018, mostly affecting the active ingredients fenhexamid, fluopyram, and iprodione. B. cinerea isolates resistant to multiple fungicides were detected in 2014 and 2018, with a higher frequency of resistance in 2018. TaqMan real-time PCR has been developed to detect B. cinerea fungicide resistance to fenhexamid and to differentiate the erg27 F412S/I/V alleles. The TaqMan assay was tested for sensitivity, specificity, and reproducibility on purified DNA and infected grape tissue samples. Our data provide essential information to growers about the efficacy for B. cinerea control using the available botryticides. Furthermore, the developed fenhexamid markers will be transferred to diagnostic clinics to assist growers in the management of bunch rot before resistance-related control failures occur.

Abstract
A baseline oral microbiome study of the Tohoku Medical Megabank Organization (TMM) was planned to characterize the profile of the oral microbiome in the Japanese population. The study also aimed to clarify risk factors for multifactorial diseases by integrated analysis of the oral microbiome and host genome/omics information. From 2013 to 2016, we collected three types of oral biospecimens, saliva, supragingival plaque, and tongue swab, from a total of 25,101 participants who had a dental examination in TMM. In this study, we used two independent cohorts; the Community-Based Cohort and Birth and Three-Generation Cohort as discovery and validation cohorts, respectively, and we selected participants examined by a single dentist. We found through the 16S ribosomal RNA gene sequencing analysis of 834 participants of the Community-Based Cohort Study that there are differences in the microbial composition and community structure between saliva and plaque. The species diversities in both saliva and plaque were increased in correlation with the severity of periodontal disease. These results were nicely reproduced in the analysis of 455 participants of the Birth and Three-Generation Cohort Study. In addition, strong positive and negative associations of microbial taxa in both plaque and saliva with periodontitis-associated biofilm formation were detected by co-occurrence network analysis. The classes Actinobacteria and Bacilli, including oral health-associated bacterial species, showed a positive correlation in saliva. These results revealed differences in microbial composition and community structure between saliva and plaque and a correlation between microbial species and the severity of periodontal disease. We expect that the large database of the oral microbiome in the TMM biobank will help in the discovery of novel targets for the treatment and prevention of oral diseases, as well as for the discovery of therapeutic and/or preventive targets of systemic diseases.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Erythrocyte mass contributes to maintaining systemic oxygen delivery and blood viscosity, with the latter being one of the determinants of blood pressure. However, the physiological response to blood pressure changes under anaemic conditions remain unknown. METHODS AND FINDINGS We show that anaemia decreases blood pressure in human patients and mouse models. Analyses of pathways related to blood pressure regulation demonstrate that anaemia enhances the expression of the gene encoding the vasopressor substance renin in kidneys. Although kidney juxtaglomerular cells are known to continuously produce renin, renal interstitial fibroblasts are identified in the present study as a novel site of renin induction under anaemic hypotensive conditions in mice and rats. Notably, some renal interstitial fibroblasts are found to simultaneously express renin and the erythroid growth factor erythropoietin in the anaemic mouse kidney. Antihypertensive agents but not hypoxic stimuli induced interstitial renin expression, suggesting that blood pressure reduction triggers interstitial renin induction in anaemic mice. The interstitial renin expression was also detected in injured fibrotic kidneys of the mouse and human, and the renin-expressing interstitial cells in murine fibrotic kidneys were identified as myofibroblasts originating from renal interstitial fibroblasts. Since the elevated expression levels of renin in fibrotic kidneys along with progression of renal fibrosis were well correlated to the systemic blood pressure increase, the renal interstitial renin production seemed to affect systemic blood pressure. INTERPRETATION Renal interstitial fibroblasts function as central controllers of systemic oxygen delivery by producing both renin and erythropoietin.

Abstract
The immunosuppressant azathioprine (AZA) is classified as a hazardous drug. AZA contamination during tablet-splitting increases exposure risk. However, there is no study on contamination and exposure during AZA tablet splitting and dispensing. AZA tablet splitting and dispensing methods were classified based on whether tweezers are used during splitting and packaging. In Dispensing Method (1), no tweezers were used in either step. In Dispensing Method (2), no tweezers were used during tablet splitting, but were used during packaging. In Dispensing Method (3), tweezers were used in both steps. After AZA half-tablet split-dispensing, we quantified the adherent AZA removed from the tools, packaging machines, and dispensing counters by three consecutive wipings with water-dampened polypropylene cloths. A large amount of AZA adhered to the gloves used in Dispensing Methods (1) and (2), wherein tablets were placed with gloved hands, compared with Dispensing Method (3), wherein tablets were held with tweezers. Thus, the gloves must be replaced before touching the packaging paper during the final step. After three consecutive wipings, AZA was not detected at most of the sites in the third round. Thus, we recommend that (1) AZA tablet splitting should be performed while wearing gloves, (2) the gloves should be changed before packaging the half tablets, and (3) the tools, packaging machines, and dispensing counters should be wiped twice or thrice with a water-dampened cloth after dispensing.

Abstract
CYP3A4 is among the most abundant liver and intestinal drug-metabolizing cytochrome P450 enzymes, contributing to the metabolism of more than 30% of clinically used drugs. Therefore, interindividual variability in CYP3A4 activity is a frequent cause of reduced drug efficacy and adverse effects. In this study, we characterized wild-type CYP3A4 and 40 CYP3A4 variants, including 11 new variants, detected among 4773 Japanese individuals by assessing CYP3A4 enzymatic activities for two representative substrates (midazolam and testosterone). The reduced carbon monoxide-difference spectra of wild-type CYP3A4 and 31 CYP3A4 variants produced with our established mammalian cell expression system were determined by measuring the increase in maximum absorption at 450 nm after carbon monoxide treatment. The kinetic parameters of midazolam and testosterone hydroxylation by wild-type CYP3A4 and 29 CYP3A4 variants (K m , k cat , and catalytic efficiency) were determined, and the causes of their kinetic differences were evaluated by three-dimensional structural modeling. Our findings offer insight into the mechanism underlying interindividual differences in CYP3A4-dependent drug metabolism. Moreover, our results provide guidance for improving drug administration protocols by considering the information on CYP3A4 genetic polymorphisms. SIGNIFICANCE STATEMENT: CYP3A4 metabolizes more than 30% of clinically used drugs. Interindividual differences in drug efficacy and adverse-effect rates have been linked to ethnicity-specific differences in CYP3A4 gene variants in Asian populations, including Japanese individuals, indicating the presence of CYP3A4 polymorphisms resulting in the increased expression of loss-of-function variants. This study detected alterations in CYP3A4 activity due to amino acid substitutions by assessing the enzymatic activities of coding variants for two representative CYP3A4 substrates.

Abstract
Background Although chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension (CTEPH) and acute pulmonary embolism (APE) share some clinical manifestations, a limited proportion of patients with CTEPH have a history of APE. Moreover, in histopathologic studies, it has been revealed that pulmonary vasculature lesions similar to pulmonary arterial hypertension existed in patients with CTEPH. Thus, it remains unknown whether these 3 disorders also share genetic backgrounds. Methods and Results Whole exome screening was performed with DNA isolated from 51 unrelated patients with CTEPH of Japanese ancestry. The frequency of genetic variants associated with pulmonary arterial hypertension or APE in patients with CTEPH was compared with those in the integrative Japanese Genome Variation Database 3.5KJPN. Whole exome screening analysis showed 17 049 nonsynonymous variants in patients with CTEPH. Although we found 6 nonsynonymous variants that are associated with APE in patients with CTEPH, there was no nonsynonymous variant associated with pulmonary arterial hypertension. Patients with CTEPH with a history of APE had nonsynonymous variants of F5, which encodes factor V. In contrast, patients with CTEPH without a history of APE had a nonsynonymous variant of THBD, which encodes thrombomodulin. Moreover, thrombin-activatable fibrinolysis inhibitor, which is one of the pathogenic proteins in CTEPH, was significantly more activated in those who had the variants of THBD compared with those without it. Conclusions These results provide the first evidence that patients with CTEPH have some variants associated with APE, regardless of the presence or absence of a history of APE. Furthermore, the variants might be different between patients with CTEPH with and without a history of APE.
