Abstract
PURPOSE Dedifferentiated low-grade osteosarcomas, which are considered high grade malignancies, can arise from the dedifferentiation of parosteal and low-grade osteosarcomas. Usually, localized dedifferentiated low-grade osteosarcomas are treated by wide resection, and the efficacy of adjuvant chemotherapy is controversial. We conducted a systematic review of studies that investigated the rates of mortality and significant events, such as recurrence and metastases, in localized dedifferentiated low-grade osteosarcoma patients who received wide resection only and in those who received wide resection and (neo-)adjuvant chemotherapy. METHODS We identified 712 studies through systematic searches of Embase, PubMed, and the Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials databases. Of those studies, seven were included in this review and none were randomized controlled trials. In the seven studies, 114 localized dedifferentiated low-grade osteosarcoma patients were examined. RESULTS Mortality rates of the resection plus chemotherapy (R + C) and the resection only (Ronly) groups were 20.3% and 11.4%, respectively [overall pooled odds ratio, 1.59 (P = 0.662); heterogeneity I2, 0%]. The local recurrence or distant metastasis rate in the R + C group was 36.7% and that in the Ronly group was 28.6% [overall pooled odds ratio, 1.37 (P = 0.484); heterogeneity I2 was 0%]. CONCLUSIONS Results show a limited efficacy of adjuvant chemotherapy for localized dedifferentiated low-grade osteosarcoma. However, because this was a systematic review of retrospective studies that examined a small number of patients, future randomized controlled trials are needed.

Abstract
AIMS Coronary vasospasm is associated with acute coronary syndrome (ACS) and may persist during primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). We aimed to elucidate the incidence, morphological characteristics, and prognostic impact of residual vasospasm in plaque rupture (PR) and plaque erosion (PE) lesions using optical coherence tomography (OCT). METHODS We enrolled 142 patients with ACS who underwent OCT-guided primary PCI. All patients received intracoronary vasodilators before OCT examination. Residual vasospasm was identified as intimal gathering and categorised as polygonal- or wavy- patterned depending on the luminal shape. A wavy pattern was defined as a curved intimal surface line. A polygonal pattern was defined as a lumen with multiple angles. The incidence of major cardiovascular events, defined as death, non-fatal myocardial infarction, stroke, and any revascularization, within 1-year of PCI was identified. RESULTS The prevalence of residual vasospasm in PR and PE was 15.1% (13 of 86) and 21.4% (12 of 56), respectively. Wavy pattern was the major shape of the residual vasospasm. Polygonal-patterned lumen was more frequently observed in PR than in PE (38.5 vs. 8.3 %). The polygonal-patterned lumens had significantly larger lipid arcs (257.9 vs. 78.0 °; P<0.01), and significantly smaller areas (1.27 vs. 1.88 mm2; P=0.05) than wavy-patterned lumens. Residual vasospasm had a prognostic impact on PR but not PE at 1-year of successful primary PCI. CONCLUSION Considerable proportion of ACS including both PR and PE had residual vasospasm with variable morphological feature and different prognostic impact.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Empty pelvis syndrome (EPS) is a significant source of morbidity following pelvic exenteration (PE), but is undefined. EPS outcome reporting and descriptors of radicality of PE are inconsistent; therefore, the best approaches for prevention are unknown. To facilitate future research into EPS, the aim of this study is to define a measurable core outcome set, core descriptor set and written definition for EPS. Consensus on strategies to mitigate EPS was also explored. METHOD Three-stage consensus methodology was used: longlisting with systematic review, healthcare professional event, patient engagement, and Delphi-piloting; shortlisting with two rounds of modified Delphi; and a confirmatory stage using a modified nominal group technique. This included a selection of measurement instruments, and iterative generation of a written EPS definition. RESULTS One hundred and three and 119 participants took part in the modified Delphi and consensus meetings, respectively. This encompassed international patient and healthcare professional representation with multidisciplinary input. Seventy statements were longlisted, seven core outcomes (bowel obstruction, enteroperineal fistula, chronic perineal sinus, infected pelvic collection, bowel obstruction, morbidity from reconstruction, re-intervention, and quality of life), and four core descriptors (magnitude of surgery, radiotherapy-induced damage, methods of reconstruction, and changes in volume of pelvic dead space) reached consensus-where applicable, measurement of these outcomes and descriptors was defined. A written definition for EPS was agreed. CONCLUSIONS EPS is an area of unmet research and clinical need. This study provides an agreed definition and core data set for EPS to facilitate further research.

Abstract
AIMS Eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) has shown beneficial effects on coronary plaque stabilization. Based on our previous study, we speculated that EPA might be associated with the development of healed plaques and might limit thrombus size. This study aimed to elucidate the association between EPA and arachidonic acid (AA) ratios and various plaque characteristics in patients with plaque rupture. METHODS A total of 95 patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS) caused by plaque rupture who did not take lipid-lowering drugs and underwent percutaneous coronary intervention using optical coherence tomography (OCT) were included. Clinical characteristics, lipid profiles, and OCT findings were compared between patients with lower and higher EPA/AA ratios (0.41) according to the levels in the Japanese general population. RESULTS In the high EPA/AA (n=29, 30.5%) and low EPA/AA (n=66, 69.5 %) groups, the high EPA/AA group was significantly older (76.1 vs. 66.1 years, P<0.01) and had lower peak creatine kinase (556 vs. 1651 U/L, P=0.03) than those with low EPA/AA. Similarly, patients with high EPA/AA had higher prevalence of layered and calcified plaque (75.9 vs. 39.4 %, P<0.01; 79.3 vs. 50.0 %, P<0.01, respectively) than low EPA/AA group. Multivariate logistic regression analysis demonstrated that a high EPA/AA ratio was an independent factor in determining the development of layered and calcified plaques. CONCLUSION A high EPA/AA ratio may be associated with the development of layered and calcified plaques in patients with plaque rupture.

Abstract
Approximately 80% of desmoid tumors (DTs) show spontaneous regression or disease stabilization during first-line active surveillance. Medical treatment can be considered in cases of disease progression. This systematic review aimed to evaluate the effectiveness and toxicity of each medical treatment by reviewing only the studies that included progressive disease as the inclusion criterion. We searched the EMBASE, PubMed, and CENTRAL databases to identify published studies for progressive DTs. The disease control rates of the medical treatments, such as low-dose chemotherapy with methotrexate plus vinblastine or vinorelbine, imatinib, sorafenib, pazopanib, nilotinib, anlotinib, doxorubicin-based agents, liposomal doxorubicin, hydroxyurea, and oral vinorelbine for progressive DTs were 71-100%, 78-92%, 67-96%, 84%, 88%, 86%, 89-100%, 90-100%, 75%, and 64%, respectively. Low-dose chemotherapy, sorafenib, pazopanib, nilotinib, anlotinib, and liposomal doxorubicin had similar toxicities. Sorafenib and pazopanib were less toxic than imatinib. Doxorubicin-based chemotherapy was associated with the highest toxicity. Hydroxyurea and oral vinorelbine exhibited the lowest toxicity. Stepwise therapy escalation from an initial, less toxic treatment to more toxic agents is recommended for progressive DTs. Sorafenib and pazopanib had limited on-treatment side effects but had the possibility to induce long-term treatment-related side effects. In contrast, low-dose chemotherapy has some on-treatment side effects and is known to have very low long-term toxicity. Thus, for progressive DTs following active surveillance, low-dose chemotherapy is recommended in young patients as long-term side effects are minor, whereas therapies such as sorafenib and pazopanib is recommended for older patients as early side effects are minor.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Neoatherosclerosis (NA), which refers to neointimal atherosclerosis within a stent, is considered one of the underlying causes of late-phase stent failure following a newer generation drug-eluting stent (DES) placement procedure. Even contemporary guideline-directed medical therapy may be insufficient to prevent NA. OBJECTIVE This study aimed to investigate how intricately lipid markers are associated with NA formation in the early phase of treatment with well-maintained low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) levels. METHODS We enrolled 114 consecutive patients undergoing statin treatment and percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) with current-generation DES for coronary artery disease. At a median 12 months after PCI, optical coherence tomography (OCT) was performed. Various lipid markers, including LDL-C, triglyceride (TG), triglyceride-rich lipoprotein cholesterol (TRL-C), non-high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (non-HDL-C), malondialdehyde-modified LDL (MDA-LDL), and several apolipoproteins, were also evaluated. RESULTS NA was observed in 17 (14.9%) patients. The LDL-C level was equivalent in patients with or without NA (77.2 vs. 69.8 mg/dL; p=0.15). However, the levels of TG, apolipoprotein C3 (apoC3), TRL-C, non-HDL-C, and apolipoprotein B (apoB), and MDA-LDL were significantly higher in the patients with NA. Furthermore, multivariate logistic regression adjusting for HbA1c and stent duration revealed apoC3, TRL-C, non-HDL-C, apoB, and MDA-LDL levels as risk factors for NA. However, when apoB was included as a covariate, other factors became nonsignificant. CONCLUSIONS Abnormal triglyceride-rich lipoprotein metabolism and high atherogenic apoB-containing lipoprotein particle numbers are associated with the formation of NA in patients undergoing statin treatment at a median 12 months post-PCI.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Recent clinical study suggests newer-generation drug-eluting stents (DES) that combine ultrathin strut and nano-coating with biodegradable polymers sirolimus-eluting stent (BP-SES) could improve long-term clinical outcomes in patients with ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) undergoing primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) over current generation DES. However, the details of vascular response in very early and chronic phase have not been systematically addressed.
Objective and method
We exploratory investigate early and chronic vascular response following BP-SES implantation in patients with STEMI to reveal mechanism of the favorable clinical outcomes in recent studies using frequency domain-optical coherence tomography (FD-OCT).
Consecutive twenty-four patients with STEMI who underwent FD-OCT after primary PCI and were eligible for follow-up FD-OCT at 2 weeks and 1 year after implantation were enrolled between June 2018 and August 2020.
OCT was performed immediately after PCI, at 2-weeks (2W) and 1-year (1Y) after the primary PCI. Struts were recorded as uncovered if any part was visibly exposed in the lumen or covered if a layer of tissue covered all reflecting surfaces. Struts of stents that are smaller than 3.0mm of diameter with more than 80μm between the center reflection and the adjacent vessel surface were recorded as malapposed. The reduction of atherothrombotic protrusion burden within the stent was also assessed.
Results
Twenty-four patients (age 64.9±11.4 years, male 83.3%) were enrolled.
The percentage of uncovered struts significantly decreased from post-PCI to 2W follow-up and from 2W follow-up to 1Y follow-up (62±20% post-PCI versus 27±11% at 2W follow up, p<0.0001 and 2W follow-up versus 3.3±3.3% at 1Y follow up, p<0.0001). Malapposed struts also decreased from post-PCI to 2W follow-up (4.1±3.6% post-PCI versus 1.5±2.2% at 2W follow-up, p<0.0001), but no significant difference was shown between 2W follow-up and 1Y follow-up (2W follow-up versus 1.0±2.3 at 1Y follow up, p=0.12). The average protrusion area of athero-thrombotic burden decreased (0.57±0.32 at post-PCI versus 0.42±0.22 mm2 at 2W follow up, p<0.0001) and its volume showed similar tendency (16.6±10.7 at post-PCI versus 12.9±8.23 mm3 at 2W follow up, p=0.0011). Thrombus was shown in all patients at post-PCI, but two patients (8.0%) showed it at 1Y follow-up.
Conclusion(s)
This study elucidated very early and chronic vascular responses following ultrathin strut BP-SES implantation in STEMI patients by FD-OCT. It showed resolution of athero-thrombotic materials in very early phase and favorable progression of strut coverage in very early and chronic phase.

Abstract
Abstract
Study question
In the management of male infertility, we investigated whether urological consultation could improve the live birth rate, and who should visit urologists in the setting of IVF clinic.
Summary answer
Urologic consultation resulted in improvement of semen quality and live birth rate with more IVF use in those with adverse semen parameters.
What is known already
Male factor infertility exists in about a half of infertility couples. This accounts for about 8% in male reproductive age. Therefore, ideally every male partner of infertility couples attempting conception should have a urological evaluation. However, it is not very easy to access urologists who specialized in reproductive medicine in Japan because we have very few of such urologists. One the other hand, a certain number of couples are wasting their time during IVF failure without urological evaluation.
Study design, size, duration
This is a single-institution retrospective study. We enrolled male partners of infertility couples who visited Kameda IVF clinic Makuhari, Chiba, Japan, between May 2016 and December 2020 and followed at least one year. Live birth rate and the frequency of IVF use were investigated according to semen quality and urological consultation status. Chi-square tests and T tests were used to compare the results between groups.
Participants/materials, setting, methods
Among 2225 couples who visited Kameda IVF clinic Makuhari, 803 male partners (Group A, 36.0%) were evaluated by urologists who were specialized in male reproductive medicine. Remaining 1422 patients did not (Group B, 64.0%). Lifestyle evaluation, physical examination, semen analyses, scrotal ultrasonography, blood test including sexual hormones and zinc concentration were performed in Group A. Semen analyses and lifestyle evaluation were performed in Group B. Urological treatments were done according to factors of male infertility.
Main results and the role of chance
Semen quality was worse in Group A as compared to Group B (sperm motility, 28.5±16.9% vs. 46.0±17.0%; total sperm count, 105±108 million/mL vs. 176±155; total motile sperm count, 34±49 vs.87±98; mean±S.D.; p = 0.0001, 0.0001, 0.0001, A vs. B, respectively). After urologic consultation and managements, sperm motility was improved to 34±18% (p = 0.001). Live birth rate in groups A and B were similar (56.0% vs. 57.2%), however couples who obtained a child in Group A used IVF more often than those in Group B (70% vs. 49.9%, p < 0.001). Among those with adverse semen quality (total motile sperm count less than 15.6 million/mL, n = 472), 350 visited urologists (Group 1, 74.2%) and remaining 122 did not (Group 2, 25.8%). Live birth rate in Group 1 was significantly better than in Group 2 (65.3% vs. 54.1%, p = 0.0359). Use of IVF was significantly more frequent in Group 1 than Group 2 (79.3% vs. 63.6%, p = 0.0359) among who obtained a child. In those with better semen quality (motile sperm count >50 million, n = 900), 119 visited urologist (31.1%, Group 3) and 781 did not (Group 4). Live birth rate and the use of IVF were not different between Groups 3 and 4 (51.1% vs.60.9%; 50.4% vs. 62.9%).
Limitations, reasons for caution
This study is a single-institution, retrospective study in the setting of IVF clinic. There may be a selection bias since men first visit gynecologists. These could affect the study results.
Wider implications of the findings
In the setting of IVF clinic, urologic consultation resulted in improved semen quality and better live birth rate with the use of IVF, especially in those who have adverse semen parameters. The results of this study encourage patients to see urologists and physicians to introduce urologist to patients.

Abstract
AIMS Evidence on the association between ambient temperature and the onset of acute heart failure (AHF) is scarce and mixed. We sought to investigate the incidence of AHF admissions based on ambient temperature change, with particular interest in detecting the difference between AHF with preserved (HFpEF), mildly reduced (HFmrEF), and reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF). METHODS AND RESULTS Individualized AHF admission data from January 2015 to December 2016 were obtained from a multicentre registry (Tokyo CCU Network Database). The primary event was the daily number of admissions. A linear regression model, using the lowest ambient temperature as the explanatory variable, was selected for the best-estimate model. We also applied the cubic spline model using five knots according to the percentiles of the distribution of the lowest ambient temperature. We divided the entire population into HFpEF + HFmrEF and HFrEF for comparison. In addition, the in-hospital treatment and mortality rates were obtained according to the interquartile ranges (IQRs) of the lowest ambient temperature (IQR1 <5.5°C; IQR25.5-13.3°C; IQR3 13.3-19.7°C; and IQR4 >19.7°C). The number of admissions for HFpEF, HFmrEF and HFrEF were 2736 (36%), 1539 (20%), and 3354 (44%), respectively. The lowest ambient temperature on the admission day was inversely correlated with the admission frequency for both HFpEF + HFmrEF and HFrEF patients, with a stronger correlation in patients with HFpEF + HFmrEF (R2 = 0.25 vs. 0.05, P < 0.001). In the sensitivity analysis, the decrease in the ambient temperature was associated with the greatest incremental increases in HFpEF, followed by HFmrEF and HFrEF patients (3.5% vs. 2.8% vs. 1.5% per -1°C, P < 0.001), with marked increase in admissions of hypertensive patients (systolic blood pressure >140 mmHg vs. 140-100 mmHg vs. <100 mmHg, 3.0% vs. 2.0% vs. 0.8% per -1°C, P for interaction <0.001). A mediator analysis indicated the presence of the mediator effect of systolic blood pressure. The in-hospital mortality rate (7.5%) did not significantly change according to ambient temperature (P = 0.62). CONCLUSIONS Lower ambient temperature was associated with higher frequency of AHF admissions, and the effect was more pronounced in HFpEF and HFmrEF patients than in those with HFrEF.

Abstract
Background The histologic nature of coronary high-intensity plaques (HIPs) at T1-weighted MRI in patients with stable coronary artery disease remains to be fully understood. Coronary atherosclerosis T1-weighted characterization (CATCH) enables HIP detection by simultaneously acquiring dark-blood plaque and bright-blood anatomic reference images. Purpose To determine if intraplaque hemorrhage (IPH) or lipid is the predominant substrate of HIPs on T1-weighted images by comparing CATCH MRI scans with findings on near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) intravascular US (IVUS) images. Materials and Methods This study retrospectively included consecutive patients who underwent CATCH MRI before NIRS IVUS between December 2019 and February 2021 at two facilities. At MRI, HIP was defined as plaque-to-myocardium signal intensity ratio of at least 1.4. The presence of an echolucent zone at IVUS (reported to represent IPH) was recorded. NIRS was used to determine the lipid component of atherosclerotic plaque. Lipid core burden index (LCBI) was calculated as the fraction of pixels with a probability of lipid-core plaque greater than 0.6 within a region of interest. Plaque with maximum LCBI within any 4-mm-long segment (maxLCBI4 mm) greater than 400 was regarded as lipid rich. Multivariable analysis was performed to evaluate NIRS IVUS-derived parameters associated with HIPs. Results There were 205 plaques analyzed in 95 patients (median age, 74 years; interquartile range [IQR], 67-78 years; 75 men). HIPs (n = 42) at MRI were predominantly associated with an echolucent zone at IVUS (79% [33 of 42] vs 8.0% [13 of 163], respectively; P < .001) and a higher maxLCBI4 mm at NIRS (477 [IQR, 258-738] vs 232 [IQR, 59-422], respectively; P < .001) than non-HIPs. In the multivariable model, HIPs were independently associated with an echolucent zone (odds ratio, 24.5; 95% CI: 9.3, 64.7; P < .001), but not with lipid-rich plaque (odds ratio, 2.0; 95% CI: 0.7, 5.4; P = .20). Conclusion The predominant substrate of T1-weighed MRI-defined high-intensity plaques in stable coronary artery disease was intraplaque hemorrhage, not lipid. © RSNA, 2021 Online supplemental material is available for this article.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Caffeine intake from one cup of coffee one hour before adenosine stress tests, corresponding to serum caffeine levels of 3-4 mg/L, is thought to be acceptable for non-invasive imaging. AIMS We aimed to elucidate whether serum caffeine is independently associated with adenosine-induced fractional flow reserve (FFR) overestimation and their concentration-response relationship. METHODS FFR was measured using adenosine (FFRADN) and papaverine (FFRPAP) in 209 patients. FFRADN overestimation was defined as FFRADN - FFRPAP. The locally weighted scatterplot smoothing (LOWESS) approach was applied to evaluate the relationship between serum caffeine level and FFRADN overestimation. Multiple regression analysis was used to determine independent factors associated with FFRADN overestimation. RESULTS Caffeine was ingested at <12 hours in 85 patients, at 12-24 hours in 35 patients, and at >24 hours in 89 patients. Multiple regression analysis identified serum caffeine level as the strongest factor associated with FFRADN overestimation (p<0.001). The LOWESS curve demonstrated that FFRADN overestimation started from just above the lower detection limit of serum caffeine and increased approximately 0.01 FFR unit per 1 mg/L increase in serum caffeine level with a linear relationship. The 90th percentile of serum caffeine levels for the ≤12-hour, the 12-24-hour, and the >24-hour groups corresponded to FFRADN overestimations by 0.06, 0.03, and 0.02, respectively. CONCLUSIONS Serum caffeine overestimates FFRADN values in a linear concentration-response manner. FFRADN overestimation occurs at much lower serum caffeine levels than those that were previously believed. Our results highlight that standardised caffeine control is required for reliable adenosine-induced FFR measurements.

Abstract
Abstract
Aim
In-stent neoatherosclerosis (NA) has emerged as an important contributing factor to late stent failure and cardiovascular events. The aim of this study was to investigate whether lipid markers are associated with NA using optical coherence tomography (OCT) after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in patients with coronary artery disease under well-controlled low density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-c) on statin treatment.
Methods
We enrolled consecutive 115 patients under statin treatment who underwent PCI with current-generation drug-eluting stent for acute and chronic coronary syndrome. OCT image and various lipid markers were obtained at 1-year for scheduled research assessment. NA was defined as a lipid laden neointima or calcified neointima. Both small dense LDL-c (sd-LDL-c) and remnant lipoprotein cholesterol (RL-c) were measured using direct homogenous assay.
Results
During an average follow-up of 13 months, NA was observed in 14 (13.6%) patients. Not LDL-c but sd-LDL-c, Malondialdehyde-modified LDL (MDA-LDL) as oxidized LDL and (RL-c) were significantly higher in patients with NA. The optimal threshold values of sd-LDL-c, MDA-LDL and RL-c for predicting NA according to receiver operating characteristics analysis were 32.3 mg/dl, 91.0 U/L, and 3.3 mg/dL, respectively. On multivariate logistic regression analysis, sd-LDL-c (≥32.3 mg/dL) and MDA (≥91.0 U/L) were significantly associated with NA (odds ratio [OR]:13.62, p=0.016, OR: 12.68, p=0.01, respectively).
Conclusions
In statin-treated patients, sd-LDL-c and MDA-LDL but not LDL-c might be useful biomarkers to identify the formation of NA at 1 years after PCI. Aggressive reduction of these atherogenic LDL may have a potential to prevent the formation of NA.

Abstract
Even small declines in renal function are associated with worse short-term outcomes after AMI. The clinical impact of the timing of acute kidney injury (AKI) onset after AMI is unknown. Early-phase AKI is associated with poor long-term mortality. Late-phase AKI is not associated with poor long-term mortality. Careful clinical attention and intensive care should be used in patients with early-phase AKI after AMI.
Background The mechanisms and clinical impact of acute kidney injury (AKI) after acute myocardial infarction (AMI) may differ depending on whether AKI develops during the early or late phase after AMI. The present study assessed the timing of AKI onset and the prognostic impact on long-term outcomes in patients hospitalized with AMI. Methods The present study enrolled consecutive AMI survivors who had undergone successful percutaneous coronary interventions at admission. AKI was defined as an increase in the serum creatinine level of ≥0.3 mg/dL above the admission value within 7 days of hospitalization. AKI patients were further divided into two subgroups (early-phase AKI: within 3 days vs. late-phase AKI: 4 to 7 days after AMI onset). The primary endpoint was all-cause death. Results In total, 506 patients were included in this study, with 385 men and a mean age of 69.5 ± 13.5 years old. The mean follow-up duration was 1289.5 ± 902.8 days. AKI developed in 127 patients (25.1%). Long-term mortality was significantly higher in the AKI group than in the non-AKI group (log-rank p < 0.001). Early-phase AKI developed in 98 patients (19.3%), and late-phase AKI developed in 28 patients (5.5%). In the multivariable analysis, early-phase AKI was significantly associated with all-cause mortality (HR 2.83, 95% CI [1.51–5.29], p = 0.0012), while late-phase AKI was not. Conclusion Early-phase AKI but not late-phase AKI was associated with poor long-term mortality. Careful clinical attention and intensive care are needed when AKI is observed within 3 days of AMI onset.

Abstract
A recent thinner strut drug-eluting stent might facilitate early strut coverage after its placement. We aimed to investigate early vascular healing responses after the placement of an ultrathin-strut bioresorbable-polymer sirolimus-eluting stent (BP-SES) compared to those with a durable-polymer everolimus-eluting stent (DP-EES) using optical coherence tomography (OCT) imaging.This study included 40 patients with chronic coronary syndrome (CCS) who underwent OCT-guided percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Twenty patients each received either BP-SES or DP-EES implantation. OCT was performed immediately after stent placement (baseline) and at 1-month follow-up.At one month, the percentage of uncovered struts reduced significantly in both the BP-SES (80.9 ± 10.3% to 2.9 ± 1.7%; P < 0.001) and DP-EES (81.9 ± 13.0% to 5.7 ± 1.8%; P < 0.001) groups, and the percentage was lower in the BP-SES group than in the DP-EES group (P < 0.001). In the BP-SES group, the percentage of malapposed struts also decreased significantly at 1 month (4.9 ± 3.7% to 2.6 ± 3.0%; P = 0.025), which was comparable to that of the DP-EES group (2.5 ± 2.2%; P = 0.860). The optimal cut-off value of the distance between the strut and vessel surface immediately after the placement to predict resolved malapposed struts was ≤ 160 μm for BP-SES and ≤ 190 μm for DP-EES.Compared to DP-EES, ultrathin-strut BP-SES demonstrated favorable vascular responses at one month, with a lower rate of uncovered struts and a comparable rate of malapposed struts.

Abstract
Recent clinical studies suggest that newer-generation drug-eluting stents that combine ultrathin struts and nanocoating (biodegradable polymer sirolimus-eluting stents, BP-SES) could improve long-term clinical outcomes in patients with ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) undergoing primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). However, the early vascular response to BP-SES in these patients has not been investigated so far.We examined this response in 20 patients with STEMI caused by plaque rupture using frequency-domain optical coherence tomography (OCT) to understand the underlying mechanisms. Plaque rupture was diagnosed by OCT before PCI with BP-SES implantation was performed. OCT was again performed before the final angiography (post-PCI) and after 2 weeks (2W-OCT).BP-SES placement caused protrusion of atherothrombotic material into the stent lumen and incomplete stent apposition in all patients. After 2 weeks, incomplete stent apposition was significantly reduced (% malapposed struts: post-PCI 4.7 ± 3.3%; 2W-OCT 0.9 ± 1.2%; P < 0.0001), and the percentage of uncovered struts also significantly decreased (% uncovered struts: post-PCI; 69.8 ± 18.3%: 2W-OCT; 29.6 ± 11.0%, P < 0.0001). The maximum protrusion area of the atherothrombotic burden was significantly reduced (post-PCI 1.36 ± 0.70 mm2; 2W-OCT 0.98 ± 0.55 mm2; P = 0.004).This study on the early vascular responses following BP-SES implantation showed rapid resolution of atherothrombotic material and progression of strut apposition and coverage.

Abstract
Aim:
This study investigated whether the small dense low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (sd-LDL-c) level is associated with the rapid progression (RP) of non-culprit coronary artery lesions and cardiovascular events (CE) after acute coronary syndrome (ACS).
Methods:
In 142 consecutive patients with ACS who underwent primary percutaneous coronary intervention for the culprit lesion, the sd-LDL-c level was measured using a direct homogeneous assay on admission for ACS and at the 10-month follow-up coronary angiography. RP was defined as a progression of any pre-existing coronary stenosis and/or stenosis development in the initially normal coronary artery. CEs were defined as cardiac death, myocardial infarction, stroke, or coronary revascularization.
Results:
Patients were divided into two groups based on the presence (
n
=29) or absence (
n
=113) of RP after 10 months. The LDL-c and sd-LDL-c levels at baseline were equivalent in both the groups. However, the sd-LDL-c, triglyceride, remnant lipoprotein cholesterol (RL-c), and apoC3 levels at follow-up were significantly higher in the RP group than in the non-RP group. The optimal threshold values of sd-LDL-c, triglyceride, RL-c, and apoC3 for predicting RP according to receiver operating characteristics analysis were 20.9, 113, 5.5, and 9.7 mg/dL, respectively. Only the sd-LDL-c level (≥ 20.9 mg/dL) was significantly associated with incident CEs at 31±17 months (log-rank: 4.123,
p
=0.043).
Conclusions:
The sd-LDL-c level on treatment was significantly associated with RP of non-culprit lesions, resulting in CEs in ACS patients. On-treatment sd-LDL-c is a residual risk and aggressive reduction of sd-LDL-c might be needed to prevent CEs.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Orsiro ultrathin-strut bioresorbable-polymer sirolimus-eluting stent (BP-SES) might facilitate early vascular healing responses that seems to be associated with improved long-term clinical outcomes. We compared the early vascular healing responses to BP-SES and Xience durable-polymer everolimus-eluting stent (DP-EES) in patients with chronic coronary syndrome (CCS) using optical coherence tomography (OCT).
Methods
A total of 40 patients with CCS receiving OCT-guided PCI were included. 20 patients were assigned to BP-SES, and 20 to DP-EES. OCT was performed immediately after stent placement (post-procedure) and at 1 month follow-up. Struts were recorded as uncovered if any part was visibly exposed in the lumen or covered if a layer of tissue covered all reflecting surfaces. The incidence of intrastent thrombus (IS-Th) and irregular protrusion (IRP) were also assessed.
Results
At 1 month, the percentage of uncovered struts was significantly lower in the BP-SES compared with the DP-EES (2.8±1.6% vs. 5.8±1.8%, respectively; p<0.001), and that of malapposed struts was similar between both groups (2.5±3.1% vs. 2.4±2.2%; p=0.76). There were no differences in the incidence of IS-Th (65.0% vs. 55.0% at post-procedure; p=0.54, 30.0% vs. 35.0% at 1 month; p=0.75) and IRP (30.0% vs. 25.0% at post-procedure; p=0.74). IRP had completely resolved at 1 month in both groups.
Conclusion
Early vascular healing response to Orsiro BP-SES implantation was revealed in CCS patients at 1 month compared with Xience DP-EES. Orsiro BP-SES may have a potential to shorten the dual antiplatelet therapy duration.

Abstract
AIMS We evaluated the relationship between the ratios of eicosapentaenoic acid and arachidonic acid (EPA/AA), docosahexaenoic acid (DHA)/AA, and delta-5 desaturase activity (D5D) and atherogenic lipid profiles (ALP) and coronary atherosclerosis. METHODS Polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) and ALP were assessed in 436 men with the first episode of acute coronary syndrome (ACS) not take any lipid-lowering drugs. D5D was estimated as the ratio of AA to dihomogamma-linolenic acid (DGLA). These biomarkers were compared between the lower and higher levels of EPA/AA (0.41) or DHA/AA (0.93) according to the levels in Japanese general population. The thrombolysis in myocardial infarction flow (TIMI) grade of the culprit coronary artery was visually estimated during the initial angiography. RESULTS Approximately 70% of patients had low EPA/AA or DHA/AA. Serum levels of LDL-cholesterol, apolipoprotein B (apoB), and remnant lipoprotein cholesterol (RL-C) were significantly higher in the low EPA/AA or DHA/AA groups, while those of triglycerides and malondialdehyde-modified LDL (MDA-LDL) were significantly higher in the low EPA/AA group alone. The levels of EPA, EPA/AA, DHA/AA, and HbA1c increased and those of DGLA and apoA1 decreased with increasing number of stenotic vessels. Patients with three stenotic coronary vessels or TIMI grade ≥ 1 had significantly higher EPA levels compared with the others. The levels of LDL-cholesterol, non-HDL-cholesterol, triglycerides, small dense LDL-cholesterol, RL-C, MDA-LDL, apoB, and apoE decreased progressively and those of EPA, DHA, EPA/AA and HDL-cholesterol increased as D5D increased. CONCLUSIONS The EPA/AA is a superior risk marker than DHA/AA in term of correlation with ALP in ACS patients.

Abstract
Background
Recent clinical study suggests newer-generation drug-eluting stents (DES) that combine ultrathin strut and nano-coating with biodegradable polymers sirolimus-eluting stent (BP-SES) could improve long-term clinical outcomes in patients with ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) undergoing primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) over current generation DES. However, safety profiles in very early phase have not been systematically addressed.
Objective and method
We exploratory investigate early vascular response following BP-SES implantation in patients with STEMI to reveal mechanism of the favorable clinical outcomes in recent studies using frequency domain-optical coherence tomography (FD-OCT).
Consecutive twenty patients with STEMI who underwent FD-OCT immediately after primary PCI and were eligible for follow-up FD-OCT at 2 weeks after implantation were enrolled between June 2018 and November 2019.
Results
Twenty patients (age 62.7±11.3 years, male 85.0%) were enrolled with frequencies of hypertension (45.0%), diabetes mellitus (35.0%), dyslipidemia (55.0%) and smoking (80.0%). Aspiration catheter were used in all patients, and 1.13±0.34 stents were used. Only one patient (5.0%) received chronic antiplatelet therapy with aspirin prior to the onset of STEMI. All patients started to receive prasugrel as thienopyridine from this event and continued dual antiplatelet therapy for 2 weeks.
The percentage of uncovered struts significantly decreased from post-procedure to 2W follow-up (69±18% post-procedure versus 30±11% at 2W follow up, p<0.0001). Malapposed struts also decreased (5.6±5.7% post-procedure versus0.9±1.2% at 2W follow up, p<0.0001).The average protrusion area of athero-thrombotic burden numerically decreased (0.37±0.19 at post-procedure versus 0.34±0.14 mm2 at 2W follow up, p=0.19) and its volume showed similar tendency (10.60±6.40 at post-procedure versus 9.36±5.14 mm3 at 2W follow up, p=0.19).
Conclusion(s)
This study firstly elucidated very early vascular responses following ultrathin strut BP-SES implantation in STEMI patients, showing early progression of strut coverage and resolution of athero-thrombotic materials. This technology may have a potential to overcome the current generation DESs in this clinical setting.

Abstract
AIM At presentation, 15-20% of patients with rectal cancer already have synchronous liver metastases. The aim of this study was to determine the surgical and survival outcomes in patients with advanced rectal cancer who underwent combined pelvic exenteration and liver (oligometastatic) resection. METHOD Data from 20 international institutions that performed simultaneous pelvic exenteration and liver resection between 2007 and 2017 were accumulated. Primarily, we examined perioperative outcomes, morbidity and mortality. We also assessed the impact that margin status had on survival. RESULTS Of 128 patients, 72 (56.2%) were men with a median age of 60 years [interquartile range (IQR) 15 years]. The median size of the liver oligometastatic deposits was 2 cm (IQR 1.8 cm). The median duration of surgery was 406 min (IQR 240 min), with a median blood loss of 1090 ml (IQR 2010 ml). A negative resection margin (R0 resection) was achieved in 73.5% of pelvic exenterations and 66.4% of liver resections. The 30-day mortality rate was 1.6%, and 32% of patients had a major postoperative complication. The 5-year overall survival for patients in whom an R0 resection of both primary and metastatic disease was achieved was 54.6% compared with 20% for those with an R1/R2 resection (P = 0.006). CONCLUSION Simultaneous pelvic exenteration and liver resection is feasible, with acceptable morbidity and mortality. Simultaneous resection should only be performed where an R0 resection of both pelvic and hepatic disease is anticipated.

Abstract
BACKGROUND This prospective randomized multicenter open-label trial evaluated whether sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 inhibitor (SGLT2-i) improves left ventricular (LV) pump function and suppresses elevation of LV filling pressure (LVFP) and right ventricular systolic pressure (RVSP) during exercise in type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) patients.Methods and Results:Based on HbA1c and LV ejection fraction, 78 patients with poorly controlled T2DM were randomly assigned to D-group (dapagliflozin 5 mg/day add-on) or C-group (conventional therapy add-on). Physical examination, home and office blood pressure examination, blood tests, and echocardiography at rest and during ergometer exercise were performed at baseline and at 1.5 and 6 months after treatment. The primary endpoint was defined as the change in RVSP (mmHg) between baseline and 6-month follow up. The secondary endpoints were changes in LVFP (ratio), stroke volume index (SVi; mL/m2), and cardiac index (CI; L/min/m2). Both RVSP and LVFP during exercise significantly decreased from baseline to 6 months after starting treatment in the D-group (P<0.001). No changes to either parameter was observed in the C-group. The SVi and CI did not improve in either group. Both home and office blood pressure significantly decreased in the D-group. Decreases in HbA1c were somewhat greater in the C-group. CONCLUSIONS Dapagliflozin significantly improved RVSP and LVFP during exercise in patients with T2DM and cardiovascular risk, which may contribute to favorable effects on heart failure.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Japan Clinical Oncology Group (JCOG) 0212 (ClinicalTrials.gov NCT00190541) was a non-inferiority phase III trial of patients with clinical stage II-III rectal cancer without lateral pelvic lymph node enlargement. The trial compared mesorectal excision (ME) with ME and lateral lymph node dissection (LLND), with a primary endpoint of recurrence-free survival (RFS). The planned primary analysis at 5 years failed to confirm the non-inferiority of ME alone compared with ME and LLND. The present study aimed to compare ME alone and ME with LLND using long-term follow-up data from JCOG0212. METHODS Patients with clinical stage II-III rectal cancer below the peritoneal reflection and no lateral pelvic lymph node enlargement were included in this study. After surgeons confirmed R0 resection by ME, patients were randomized to receive ME alone or ME with LLND. The primary endpoint was RFS. RESULTS A total of 701 patients from 33 institutions were assigned to ME with LLND (351) or ME alone (350) between June 2003 and August 2010. The 7-year RFS rate was 71.1 per cent for ME with LLND and 70·7 per cent for ME alone (hazard ratio (HR) 1·09, 95 per cent c.i. 0·84 to 1·42; non-inferiority P = 0·064). Subgroup analysis showed improved RFS among patients with clinical stage III disease who underwent ME with LLND compared with ME alone (HR 1·49, 1·02 to 2·17). CONCLUSION Long-term follow-up data did not support the non-inferiority of ME alone compared with ME and LLND. ME with LLND is recommended for patients with clinical stage III disease, whereas LLND could be omitted in those with clinical stage II tumours.

Abstract
Background More extensive lymphadenectomy may improve survival after resection of colonic cancer. Nomograms were created predicting overall survival and recurrence for patients who undergo D2-D3 lymph node dissection, and their validity determined. Methods This was a multicentre study of patients with colonic cancer who underwent resection with D2-D3 lymph node dissection in Japan. Inclusion criteria included R0 resection. A training cohort of patients operated on from 2007 to 2008 was analysed to construct prognostic models predicting survival and recurrence. Discrimination and calibration were performed using an external validation cohort from the Japanese colorectal cancer registry (procedures in 2005-2006). Results The training cohort consisted of 2746 patients. Predictors of survival were: age (hazard ratio (HR) 1·04), female sex (HR 0·71), depth of tumour invasion (HR 1·15, 1·22, 2·96 and 3·14 for T2, T3, T4a and T4b respectively versus T1), lymphatic invasion (HR 1·11, 1·15 and 2·95 for ly1, ly2 and ly3 versus ly0), preoperative carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) level (HR 1·21, 1·59 and 1·99 for 5·1-10·0, 10·1-20·0 and 20·1 and over versus 0-5·0 ng/ml), number of metastatic lymph nodes (HR 1·07), number of lymph nodes examined (HR 0·98) and extent of lymphadenectomy (HR 0·23, 0·13 and 0·11 for D1, D2 and D3 versus D0). Predictors of recurrence were: female sex (HR 0·82), macroscopic type (HR 3·82, 4·56, 6·66, 7·74 and 3·22 for types I, II, III, IV and V versus type 0), depth of invasion (HR 1·25, 2·66, 5·32 and 6·43 for T2, T3, T4a and T4b versus T1), venous invasion (HR 1·43, 3·05 and 4·79 for v1, v2 and v3 versus v0), preoperative CEA level (HR 1·39, 1·43, 1·56 and 1·85 for 5·1-10·0, 10·1-20·0, 20·1-40·0 and 40·1 or more versus 0-5 ng/ml), number of metastatic lymph nodes (HR 1·07) and number of lymph nodes examined (HR 0·98). The validation cohort comprised 4446 patients. The internal and external validated Harrell's C-index values for the nomogram predicting survival were 0·75 and 0·74 respectively. Corresponding values for recurrence were 0·78 and 0·75. Conclusion These nomograms could predict survival and recurrence after curative resection of colonic cancer.

Abstract
As an alternative to conventional indium-tin-oxide (ITO) electrodes, a transparent Cu grid electrode was fabricated by etching a sputtered Cu on a flexible polyethylene naphthalate film through a polyvinyl alcohol (PVA)-based protecting layer. The masking pattern of the PVA-based polymer on the Cu was generated by evaporation of an aqueous solution containing PVA-based polymers using a screen mesh as a template. The solution formed a stable liquid-bridge network between contact points of the screen mesh and the substrate after being dropped onto the mesh placed on the substrate. Drying of the solution yielded grid or dotted patterns, depending on the concentration of PVA. Etching of the Cu film covered with the PVA pattern was done with a FeCl3 methanolic solution to form a grid-patterned Cu electrode. Although some underetching was observed, adjusting the etching time gave a fine line network of Cu with the PVA coated thoroughly. The Cu grid electrode showed a transparency of 87.2 ± 5.2% at 550 nm and 6.1 ± 5.3 Ω □-1, which is comparable to or greater than that of the conventional ITO. Furthermore, we found that the PVA coating barrier significantly enhanced the oxidation resistance of the Cu grid electrode.

Abstract
Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is one of the most fatal types of cancer and the 5-year survival rate is only 5%. Several studies have suggested that cancer stem cells (CSCs) are thought to be involved in recurrence and metastasis and so it is essential to establish an approach targeting CSCs. Here we have demonstrated that cyclic guanosine monophosphate (cGMP) suppressed CD44 expression and the properties of CSCs in PDAC. Microarray analysis suggested that cGMP inhibited Forkhead box O3 (FOXO3), which is known as a tumor suppressor. Surprisingly, our data demonstrated that FOXO3 is essential for CD44 expression and the properties of CSCs. Our data also indicated that patients with high FOXO3 activation signatures had poor prognoses. This evidence suggested that cGMP induction and FOXO3 inhibition could be ideal candidates for pancreatic CSC.

Abstract
Our data shows the regional coronary artery calcium scores (lesion CAC) on multidetector computed tomography (MDCT) and the cross-section imaging on MDCT angiography (CTA) in the target lesion of the patients with stable angina pectoris who were scheduled for percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). CAC and CTA data were measured using a 128-slice scanner (Somatom Definition AS+; Siemens Medical Solutions, Forchheim, Germany) before PCI. CAC was measured in a non-contrast-enhanced scan and was quantified using the Calcium Score module of SYNAPSE VINCENT software (Fujifilm Co. Tokyo, Japan) and expressed in Agatston units. CTA were then continued with a contrast-enhanced ECG gating to measure the severity of the calcified plaque condition. We present that both CAC and CTA data are used as a benchmark to consider the addition of rotational atherectomy during PCI to severely calcified plaque lesions.

Abstract
Adoptive immunotherapies have been developed for antiviral agent-refractory cytomegalovirus (CMV) disease after stem cell transplantation (SCT). However, the application of such strategies is limited, particularly in terms of need for donor cooperation regarding blood sampling and inaccessibility in the setting of cord blood transplantation. Herein, we describe the first successful treatment of antiviral agent-refractory CMV enteritis after allogeneic SCT by the infusion of ex vivo-expanded donor-derived CD4(+) lymphocytes obtained from the recipient's peripheral blood.

Abstract
Smad1, Smad5 and Smad9 (also known as Smad8) are activated by phosphorylation by bone morphogenetic protein (BMP)-bound type I receptor kinases. We examined the role of Smad1, Smad5, and Smad9 by creating constitutively active forms (Smad(DVD)). Transcriptional activity of Smad9(DVD) was lower than that of Smad1(DVD) or Smad5(DVD), even though all three Smad(DVD)s associated with Smad4 and bound to the target DNA. The linker region of Smad9 was sufficient to reduce transcriptional activity. Smad9 expression was increased by the activation of BMP signaling, similar to that of inhibitory Smads (I-Smads), and Smad9 reduced BMP activity. In contrast to I-Smads, however, Smad9 did not inhibit the type I receptor kinase and suppressed the constitutively active Smad1(DVD). Smad9 formed complexes with Smad1 and bound to DNA but suppressed the transcription of the target gene. Taken together, our findings suggest that Smad9 is a new type of transcriptional regulator in BMP signaling.
