Abstract
BACKGROUND The success of liver resection relies on the ability of the remnant liver to regenerate. Most of the knowledge regarding the pathophysiological basis of liver regeneration comes from rodent studies, and data on humans are scarce. Additionally, there is limited knowledge about the preoperative factors that influence postoperative regeneration.
AIM To quantify postoperative remnant liver volume by the latest volumetric software and investigate perioperative factors that affect posthepatectomy liver regeneration.
METHODS A total of 268 patients who received partial hepatectomy were enrolled. Patients were grouped into right hepatectomy/trisegmentectomy (RH/Tri), left hepatectomy (LH), segmentectomy (Seg), and subsegmentectomy/nonanatomical hepatectomy (Sub/Non) groups. The regeneration index (RI) and late regeneration rate were defined as (postoperative liver volume)/[total functional liver volume (TFLV)] × 100 and (RI at 6-months - RI at 3-months)/RI at 6-months, respectively. The lower 25th percentile of RI and the higher 25th percentile of late regeneration rate in each group were defined as “low regeneration” and “delayed regeneration”. “Restoration to the original size” was defined as regeneration of the liver volume by more than 90% of the TFLV at 12 months postsurgery.
RESULTS The numbers of patients in the RH/Tri, LH, Seg, and Sub/Non groups were 41, 53, 99 and 75, respectively. The RI plateaued at 3 months in the LH, Seg, and Sub/Non groups, whereas the RI increased until 12 months in the RH/Tri group. According to our multivariate analysis, the preoperative albumin-bilirubin (ALBI) score was an independent factor for low regeneration at 3 months [odds ratio (OR) 95%CI = 2.80 (1.17-6.69), P = 0.02; per 1.0 up] and 12 months [OR = 2.27 (1.01-5.09), P = 0.04; per 1.0 up]. Multivariate analysis revealed that only liver resection percentage [OR = 1.03 (1.00-1.05), P = 0.04] was associated with delayed regeneration. Furthermore, multivariate analysis demonstrated that the preoperative ALBI score [OR = 2.63 (1.00-1.05), P = 0.02; per 1.0 up] and liver resection percentage [OR = 1.02 (1.00-1.05), P = 0.04; per 1.0 up] were found to be independent risk factors associated with volume restoration failure.
CONCLUSION Liver regeneration posthepatectomy was determined by the resection percentage and preoperative ALBI score. This knowledge helps surgeons decide the timing and type of rehepatectomy for recurrent cases.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE We aimed to apply the free-viewpoint video technology developed and introduced mainly for sports spectators to an open surgical video recording system. DESIGN Prospective feasibility study. SETTING University of Tsukuba Hospital, Ibaraki, Japan. PARTICIPANTS Patients who underwent open pancreaticoduodenectomy for pancreatic cancer between December 2022 and March 2023 were included. The gastrojejunal anastomosis was the subject of the recording. RESULTS Four surgeries were recorded with Surgical Arena 360, which is the free-viewpoint video system that we developed. The feasibility of performing a series of surgical procedures without interrupting the surgeon's line of sight or manipulation was demonstrated in all cases. CONCLUSIONS Our study revealed that Surgical Arena 360, an open surgical video recording system developed by applying free-viewpoint video technology, can provide new insights into surgical support and clinical knowledge to surgeons by enabling secure capture of the open surgical field from multiple angles.

Hypoxia at 3D organoid establishment selects essential subclones within heterogenous pancreatic cancer. Front Cell Dev Biol 2024; 12:1327772.

Abstract
Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is especially hypoxic and composed of heterogeneous cell populations containing hypoxia-adapted cells. Hypoxia as a microenvironment of PDAC is known to cause epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) and resistance to therapy. Therefore, cells adapted to hypoxia possess malignant traits that should be targeted for therapy. However, current 3D organoid culture systems are usually cultured under normoxia, losing hypoxia-adapted cells due to selectivity bias at the time of organoid establishment. To overcome any potential selection bias, we focused on oxygen concentration during the establishment of 3D organoids. We subjected identical PDAC surgical samples to normoxia (O2 20%) or hypoxia (O2 1%), yielding glandular and solid organoid morphology, respectively. Pancreatic cancer organoids established under hypoxia displayed higher expression of EMT-related proteins, a Moffitt basal-like subtype transcriptome, and higher 5-FU resistance in contrast to organoids established under normoxia. We suggest that hypoxia during organoid establishment efficiently selects for hypoxia-adapted cells possibly responsible for PDAC malignant traits, facilitating a fundamental source for elucidating and developing new treatment strategies against PDAC.

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
Severe diarrhea is a common side effect of epidermal growth factor receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitors (EGFR-TKIs). We aimed to evaluate the risk of EGFR-TKI-induced diarrhea using spheroids of human and monkey crypt-derived intestinal stem cells. Intestinal spheroids exhibited higher toxic susceptibility to EGFR-TKIs than Caco-2 cells. As concentration of EGFR-TKIs increased, cellular ATP first decreased relative to the control condition, followed by an increase in LDH release, in contrast with their simultaneous changes with traditional cytotoxic anticancer drugs. The toxic sensitivity of spheroids to various EGFR-TKIs corresponded to clinical diarrhea incidence. Afatinib, a second-generation EGFR-TKI, exhibited higher toxic sensitivity compared with the first-generation ones, corresponding to the clinical evidence that afatinib-induced diarrhea is almost inevitable and severe. By contrast, the third-generation osimertinib, which reduces the risk of diarrhea, showed mitigated cytotoxicity compared with afatinib. For irreversible EGFR-TKIs, the decreased ATP level persisted or its recovery was delayed even after drug removal compared with reversible ones. Furthermore, the highest drug accumulation in spheroids (TKIspheroids) and inhibition potency against EGFR (TKIspheroids/Ki) were observed for afatinib. This system would be useful for predicting the risk of EGFR-TKI-induced diarrhea; moreover, on-target cytotoxicity against intestinal stem cells might contribute to clinically observed diarrhea.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Superior mesenteric artery (SMA) nerve plexus (PLsma) dissection has been performed to achieve R0 resection in pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD) for pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) in high-volume centers. However, full-extent PLsma preservation in PD is employed in our institution. The feasibility of the PLsma preservation strategy was investigated. METHODS Between January 2010 and December 2020, 156 patients underwent PLsma preservation PD for PDAC at our institution. Of these, 118 patients had resectable PDAC (R group) and 38 patients had borderline resectable artery (BR-A group). Clinical and oncological outcomes focusing on local recurrence, patient prognoses, and morbidities (including postoperative refractory diarrhea) were retrospectively analyzed and our postoperative outcomes were compared with those of other institutions. RESULTS Pathological R0 resection by PLsma preservation PD was achieved in 96 R group patients (81.4%) and 27 BR-A group patients (71.1%). The median postoperative hospital stay was 15.0 days in both groups. Local site-only recurrence was observed in 10.2% (12/118) of R-group and 10.5% (4/38) of BR-A-group patients, whereas distant site-only recurrence occurred in 21.2% (25/118) of R-group and 28.9% (11/38) of BR-A-group patients. Median survival times were 64.3 months (R group) and 35.4 months (BR-A group, p = 0.07). Median disease-free survival (DFS) times were 31.0 months (R group) and 12.0 months (BR-A group). No diarrhea requiring opioids was observed in either group. These results were equal or superior to those of PLsma dissection PD in other institutions. CONCLUSIONS PLsma preservation in PD was feasible compared to PLsma dissection in recurrence and overall survival.

Abstract
PURPOSE/OBJECTIVE(S) Palliative radiotherapy is an effective and commonly used treatment for pain relief in metastatic cancer patients. This study aimed to classify the patients to predict their response to palliative radiotherapy. MATERIALS/METHODS This study used the data from our single-center, prospective observational study (UMIN000044984), which included all patients undergoing palliative radiotherapy for the painful tumor, except for postoperative setting or brain metastases. The eligibility criteria were as follows: (1) numerical rating scale (NRS) was two or more before treatment, and (2) underwent palliative radiotherapy between August 2021 and September 2022. Questionnaires for pain site, NRS, and presence/dose of opioids were obtained before, on the last day of treatment, two weeks later, one month later, three months later, and every three months after that. Patients with severe performance status (PS) were contacted by telephone. Pain response was defined to reduce NRS 2 or more at the treated site without an analgesic increase. The primary outcome was the response rate within three months of the treatment. We used multivariable logistic regression to find the independent prognostic factors for the response based on the following covariates: age, sex, PS, body mass index, NRS, history of radiotherapy, treated site, radiographic features (lytic/sclerotic/mixed), metastatic complication, presence/dose of opioids, bone-modifying agents, radiation dose, type of primary tumor, radiosensitivity, number of metastases, and days from diagnosis to treatment. A classification model was created using significant factors, and response rates were calculated for each class. Statistical significance was defined as P<0.05. RESULTS Among 488 targets of 300 patients registered, 366 targets of 261 patients met the criteria. The median age was 65 years, 44% were female, and PS (0/1/2/3/4) was 6/63/18/9/4%. The major type of tumor was gastrointestinal (32%), lung (19%), and breast (12%). Bone metastases were 75% at treated sites. Opioids were used by 72%, BMA was 27%, and chemotherapy was 50%. Re-irradiation rate was 22%. With a median follow-up of 5.8 months, 113 patients were alive, 129 had died, and 20 were lost follow-up. The average NRS was reduced from 6.1 to 3.1 from pretreatment to 3 months later per evaluable 232 targets, resulting in a pain relief rate of 60%. Opioids use (P<0.001) and re-irradiation (P<0.001) were significant factors of poor response in multivariate analysis. In our classification model, 89 targets were classified as class 1 (no opioids & no irradiation history), 211 were class 2 (other than class 1 and 3), and 66 were class 3 (opioids & re-irradiation), were 75/61/36% (P<0.001) of response rate. The 6-month cumulative pain progression rate was 12/22/32% (P<0.001), respectively. CONCLUSION Palliative radiotherapy is highly effective for patients with painful tumors especially for those without previous irradiation history or use of opioids.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Locally advanced pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC), accounting for about 30% of PDAC patients, is difficult to cure by radical resection or systemic chemotherapy alone. A multidisciplinary strategy is required and our TT-LAP trial aims to evaluate whether triple-modal treatment with proton beam therapy (PBT), hyperthermia, and gemcitabine plus nab-paclitaxel is a safe and synergistically effective treatment for patients with locally advanced PDAC. METHODS This trial is an interventional, open-label, non-randomized, single-center, single-arm phase I/II clinical trial organized and sponsored by the University of Tsukuba. Eligible patients who are diagnosed with locally advanced pancreatic cancer, including both borderline resectable (BR) and unresectable locally advanced (UR-LA) patients, and selected according to the inclusion and exclusion criteria will receive triple-modal treatment consisting of chemotherapy, hyperthermia, and proton beam radiation. Treatment induction will include 2 cycles of chemotherapy (gemcitabine plus nab-paclitaxel), proton beam therapy, and 6 total sessions of hyperthermia therapy. The initial 5 patients will move to phase II after adverse events are verified by a monitoring committee and safety is ensured. The primary endpoint is 2-year survival rate while secondary endpoints include adverse event rate, treatment completion rate, response rate, progression-free survival, overall survival, resection rate, pathologic response rate, and R0 (no pathologic cancer remnants) rate. The target sample size is set at 30 cases. DISCUSSION The TT-LAP trial is the first to evaluate the safety and effectiveness (phases1/2) of triple-modal treatment comprised of proton beam therapy, hyperthermia, and gemcitabine/nab-paclitaxel for locally advanced pancreatic cancer. ETHICS AND DISSEMINATION This protocol was approved by the Tsukuba University Clinical Research Review Board (reference number TCRB22-007). Results will be analyzed after study recruitment and follow-up are completed. Results will be presented at international meetings of interest in pancreatic cancer plus gastrointestinal, hepatobiliary, and pancreatic surgeries and published in peer-reviewed journals.

Abstract
Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is resistant to current treatments but lectin-based therapy targeting cell surface glycans could be a promising new horizon. Here, we report a novel lectin-based phototherapy (Lec-PT) that combines the PDAC targeting ability of rBC2LCN lectin to a photoabsorber, IRDye700DX (rBC2-IR700), resulting in a novel and highly specific near-infrared, light-activated, anti-PDAC therapy. Lec-PT cytotoxicity was first verified in vitro with a human PDAC cell line, Capan-1, indicating that rBC2-IR700 is only cytotoxic upon cellular binding and exposure to near-infrared light. The therapeutic efficacy of Lec-PT was subsequently verified in vivo using cell lines and patient-derived, subcutaneous xenografting into nude mice. Significant accumulation of rBC2-IR700 occurs as early as 2 hours postintravenous administration while cytotoxicity is only achieved upon exposure to near-infrared light. Repeated treatments further slowed tumor growth. Lec-PT was also assessed for off-target toxicity in the orthotopic xenograft model. Shielding of intraperitoneal organs from near-infrared light minimized off-target toxicity. Using readily available components, Lec-PT specifically targeted pancreatic cancer with high reproducibility and on-target, inducible toxicity. Rapid clinical development of this method is promising as a new modality for treatment of pancreatic cancer.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Severe asthma is associated with a serious disease burden, partially caused by limitations in activity and work impairment (1,2). AIMS AND OBJECTIVES This study aims to relate treatment with biologics targeting IL-5/5Ra to work productivity and activity in the long term in a real-world context. MATERIAL AND METHODS This is a registry-based multi-center cohort study evaluating data from adults with severe eosinophilic asthma included in the Dutch Register of Adult Patients with Severe Asthma for Optimal DIsease management (RAPSODI). Patients that started with anti-IL-5/5Ra biologics and completed the work productivity and activity improvement questionnaire, were included. Study and patient characteristics were compared between the employed and unemployed patients. Work productivity and activity impairment are related to accompanying improvements in clinical outcomes. RESULTS At baseline, 91 of 137 patients (66%) were employed which remained stable throughout the follow-up period. Patients in the working age category were younger and had significantly better asthma control (p =0.02). Mean overall work impairment due to health decreased significantly from 25.5% (SD2.6) to 17.6% (SD 2.8) during 12 months anti-IL-5/5Ra biologics treatment (P = 0.010). There was a significant association between ACQ6 and overall work improvement after targeted therapy (β =8.7, CI 2.1-15.4, P = 0.01). The improvement of asthma control of 0.5 points on the asthma Control Questionnaire was associated with an overall work impairment of - 9%. CONCLUSIONS Work productivity and activity in severe eosinophilic asthma improved after starting anti-IL-5/5Ra biologics. Clinically relevant improvement in asthma control was associated with an overall work impairment score of - 9% in this study.

Abstract
Iatrogenic arteriovenous fistula (AVF) is a complication accompanying venous and arterial puncture. Herein we report a case of ligation closure of an iatrogenic AVF in the brachial artery after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) for the patient with end-stage kidney disease (ESKD). A 68-year-old woman presented with a history of several coronary angiographies (CAG) and PCI through the right brachial artery. After PCI, the patient experienced a thrill in the right elbow. Two years later, the patient initiated hemodialysis (HD) using a temporary HD catheter for ESKD and congestive cardiac failure. Ultrasonography and computed tomographic angiography revealed an iatrogenic AVF between the right brachial artery and the medial brachial vein. Blood flow in the brachial artery was 760 mL/min. However, the iatrogenic AVF was unusable as vascular access for HD, and prior ligation closure of the iatrogenic AVF was performed, considering the risk of cardiac failure due to double AVFs after the creation of a new AVF for HD. Subsequently, a new radial-cephalic AVF was created in the left forearm. Therefore, clinicians should consider the possibility of iatrogenic AVF in patients with ESKD having a history of CAG or PCI.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Muir-Torre syndrome is an autosomal-dominant mutation in mismatch repair genes that gives rise to sebaceous tumors and visceral malignancies over time. Because colorectal and genitourinary cancers are common in Muir-Torre syndrome, duodenal carcinoma diagnoses are often delayed. CASE PRESENTATION A 58-year-old woman presented with severe emaciation, anorexia, and upper abdominal pain. She had a history of rectal carcinoma, ascending colon carcinoma, and a right shoulder sebaceous carcinoma. Upper gastrointestinal endoscopy and computed tomography examinations suggested duodenal obstruction due to superior mesenteric artery syndrome, leading to long-term observation. Seven months later, she was finally diagnosed with duodenal carcinoma of the third portion. As the papilla of Vater was preservable due to tumor location, she received a partial duodenectomy in lieu of a pancreatoduodenectomy. Pathologically, the tumor was a well-differentiated adenocarcinoma with a classification of T3N0M0 Stage IIA (UICC, 8th edition). The postoperative course was uneventful and her appetite returned. A mutation in mismatch repair gene MSH2 confirmed the diagnosis of Muir-Torre syndrome genetically. Three years later, her nutritional status has fully recovered and she is free from both recurrence and metastasis. CONCLUSION In patients with comorbid skin sebaceous tumors and gastrointestinal malignancies, genetic screening is strongly recommended. Patients with Muir-Torre syndrome require long-term follow-up, and function-preserving treatment is desirable.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Predictive markers and prognosis remain unclear in hospitalized hemodialysis (HD) patients with coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) during the Omicron epidemic. METHODS We evaluated characteristics, laboratory parameters, and outcomes in hospitalized HD patients with COVID-19 (n = 102) at two centers between January and April 2022. RESULTS The 30-day mortality rate was higher in moderate-critical group (n = 43) than mild group (n = 59) (16.3% vs. 1.7%; p = 0.007), and higher in patients with lower CC chemokine ligand 17 (CCL17) levels (<95.0 pg/mL) compared with normal CCL17 levels (19.0% versus 4.9%; p = 0.03). In multivariate analyses, a low CCL17 level (p = 0.003) was associated with moderate-critical conditions, and moderate-critical conditions (p = 0.04) were associated with 30-day mortality, whereas CCL17 was not associated with 30-day mortality. CONCLUSIONS COVID-19 remains a fatal complication, and CCL17 was a predictive marker of severity in hospitalized HD patients during the Omicron epidemic.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION The association between tunneled central venous hemodialysis catheters (TCVCs) and mortality in hospitalized elderly hemodialysis (HD) patients remains unclear. METHODS This retrospective observational study was conducted in a long-term care hospital. We evaluated the association between TCVC and mortality in HD patients hospitalized between 2015 and 2020. RESULTS A total of 463 patients were compared: TCVC group (n = 53) and non-TCVC group (n = 410) including arteriovenous fistula (AVF, n = 369), arteriovenous graft (AVG, n = 30), and superficialized brachial artery (SBA, n = 11). The mean ages were 80 and 78 years in the TCVC and non-TCVC groups, respectively. Overall mortality rates for all-cause and cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) were higher in the TCVC group than in the non-TCVC group (log-rank, p = 0.01, and p = 0.009). Overall mortality was higher in the TCVC group than in the AVF group (p = 0.04), but there were no significant differences between the TCVC, AVG, and SBA groups. In Cox proportional hazards regression models, age, dialysis vintage, male sex, Charlson Comorbidity Index (CCI), and serum albumin level were associated with all-cause, CVD, and infectious disease (ID) mortalities, but TCVC was not associated with all-cause (hazard ratio, 1.31; 95% confidence interval, 0.95-1.80; p = 0.1), CVD (1.54; 0.99-2.39; p = 0.051), and ID (0.91; 0.48-1.70; p = 0.8) mortalities. Among patients aged ≥80 years, with dialysis vintage ≥7 years and CCI ≥10, the overall mortality rates were comparable between the two groups. CONCLUSIONS Among elderly HD patients in the long-term care hospital, TCVC was not associated with mortality.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
The treatment of duplicated thoracic ducts (TDs) injury after esophagectomy generally requires a bilateral transthoracic approach. We present the cases of two patients with postoperative chylothorax who underwent transhiatal bilateral TD ligation for duplicated TDs.
Case presentation
Two patients diagnosed with chylothorax after esophagectomy performed for thoracic esophageal cancer underwent transhiatal TD ligation. Although supradiaphragmatic mass ligation was performed on the fat tissue of the right side of the aorta containing the TD, chyle leakage persisted. To tackle this, the fat tissue of the left side of the aorta was ligated, after which the chyle leakage stopped.
Conclusion
Compared to the conventional transthoracic approach, the transhiatal approach enables the ligation of both left- and right-sided TD in a single surgical operation, without the need to change the patient’s posture. This approach may be appropriate for the treatment of chylothorax after esophagectomy, considering the possibility of duplicated TDs.

Abstract
Early renal function after living-donor kidney transplantation (LDKT) depends on the "nephron mass" in the renal graft. In this study, as a possible donor-recipient size mismatch parameter that directly reflects the "nephron mass," the cortex to recipient weight ratio (CRWR) was calculated by CT-volumetric software, and its ability to predict early graft function was examined. One hundred patients who underwent LDKT were enrolled. Patients were classified into a developmental cohort (n = 79) and a validation cohort (n = 21). Using the developmental cohort, the correlation coefficients between size mismatch parameters, including CRWR, and the posttransplantation estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) were calculated. Multiple regression analysis was conducted to define a formula to predict eGFR 1-month posttransplantation. Using the validation cohort, the validity of the formula was examined. The correlation coefficient was the highest for CRWR (1-month r = 0.66, p < 0.001). By multiple regression analysis, eGFR at 1-month was predicted using the linear model: 0.23 × donor preoperative eGFR + 17.03 × CRWR + 8.96 × preemptive transplantation + 5.10 (adjusted coefficient of determination = 0.54). In most patients in the validation cohort, the observed eGFR was within a 10 ml/min/1.73 m2 margin of the predicted eGFR. CRWR was the strongest parameter to predict early graft function. Predicting renal function using this formula could be useful in clinical application to select proper donors and to avoid unnecessary postoperative medical interventions.

Abstract
Background Mediastinoscope and laparoscope-assisted esophagectomy for esophageal cancer occasionally causes postoperative accumulation of pleural effusion despite the preservation of the mediastinal pleura. Transhiatal chest drainage has been reported to be useful for thoracic esophagectomy; however, its use in mediastinoscope and laparoscope-assisted esophagectomy remains unelucidated. This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of transhiatal chest drainage in mediastinoscope and laparoscope-assisted esophagectomy. Methods This retrospective study included patients who underwent mediastinoscope and laparoscope-assisted esophagectomy for esophageal cancer from 2018 to 2021. Transhiatal chest drainage involved the insertion of a 19-Fr Blake® drain from the abdomen to the left thoracic cavity through the hiatus. We assessed its effectiveness and safety by the daily drainage output, accumulation of postoperative pleural effusion, frequency of postoperative thoracentesis, and other complications. The drainage group comprising 24 patients was compared with the non-drainage group comprising 13 patients, in whom a transhiatal chest drainage tube was not placed during mediastinoscope and laparoscope-assisted esophagectomy. Results The median daily output of the transhiatal chest drainage was 230 mL on day 1, 385 mL on day 2, and 313 mL on day 3. The number of patients with postoperative pleural effusion was significantly reduced from 10/13 (76.9%) in the non-drainage group to 4/24 (16.7%) in the drainage group (p = 0.001). The frequency of thoracentesis in the drainage group was significantly lower than that in the non-drainage group (p = 0.002). There were no significant differences in the occurrence of other postoperative complications. Conclusions Transhiatal chest drainage could evacuate pleural effusion effectively and safely after mediastinoscope and laparoscope-assisted esophagectomy.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Pancreatic fistula remains the biggest problem in pancreatic surgery. We have previously reported a new pancreatojejunostomy method using an inter-anastomosis drainage (IAD) suction tube with Blumgart anastomosis for drainage of the pancreatic juice leaking from the branched pancreatic ducts. This study aimed to evaluate the postoperative outcomes of our novel method, in pancreatojejunostomy and investigate the nature of the inter-anastomosis space between jejunal wall and pancreas parenchyma. METHODS This retrospectively study consist of 282 pancreatoduodenectomy cases, including 86 reconstructions via the Blumgart method plus IAD (B + IAD group) and 196 cases reconstructed using the Blumgart method alone (B group). Postoperative outcomes and the amylase value and the volume of the drainage fluids were compared between the two groups. The IAD tube was placed to collect amylase-rich fluid from the inter-anastomosis space during operative procedure between the jejunal wall and pancreatic stump. RESULTS The daily IAD drainage volume and the amylase level was significantly higher in patients with a soft pancreas (vs hard pancreas; 16.5 vs. 10.0 mL/day, p = 0.012; 90,900 vs. 1634 IU/L, p < 0.001, respectively). The mean amylase value of IAD collection in 86 cases of B + IAD group was 63,100 IU/L. The incidence of clinically relevant pancreatic fistula grade B and C (23.2% vs. 23.0%, p = 0.55) and the hospital stay was similar between the groups (median 17 vs. 18 days, p = 0.55). In 176 patients with soft pancreas, the incidence of pancreatic fistula grade B and C (33.3% vs. 35.3%, p = 0.67) and the hospital stay was also similar between the groups (median 22.5 vs. 21 days, p = 0.81). CONCLUSIONS Positive effect of the IAD method observed in the pilot cases was not reproduced in the current study. IAD tube objectively demonstrated the existence of amylase-rich discharge at the anastomosis site, and countermeasures to eliminate this liquid are highly desired for preventing pancreatic fistula, especially in patients with soft pancreatic texture. Trial registration Retrospectively registered.

Abstract
Abstract
Study question
Could autologous adipose stem cell (ASC) mitochondria supplementation restore the post-fertilization development potentialin vitrified-thawed oocytes?
Summary answer
Autologous ASC mitochondria supplementation could rejuvenate the quality of vitrified-thawed oocytes and enhance the embryo’s developmental capacity.
What is known already
Pre- and post-implantation developmental potential of embryos derived from vitrified oocytes are remarkedly lower than those of fresh oocytes. Despite its’ low efficacy, oocyte cryopreservation is becoming prevalent in assisted reproductive technologies to cater the growing demands due to patients' sociological and pathological conditions. Unfavorable effects to mitochondrial membrane potential, mitochondrial structure, ATP production, reactive oxygen species (ROS), meiotic spindle and microfilaments, and Ca2+ ion regulation are reported as detrimental damages in oocytes following the cryopreservation, that adversely affect the development potential. Furthermore, autologous stem cell mitochondria supplementation can rescue the aging-related oocyte mitochondrial damages.
Study design, size, duration
The mature oocytes, autologous ASC, and mitochondria were collected from young mice and analyzed at Osaka City University, Japan. In total, 600 young mouse mature oocytes were occupied in this prospective study.
Participants/materials, setting, methods
Young C57BL/6JJmsmouse (8weeks) mature oocytes that have been pre-vitrified were thawed before the start of the ICSI procedure.ASC specificity and ASC mitochondria function and ultrastructure were pre-analyzed. ASC mitochondria were isolated on the same day and supplemented with intracellular sperm injection (ICSI) and as the control, the mitochondrial buffer was injected. The survival rate, fertilization rate, blastulation, mitochondria function, ROS level in 2 cell embryos, and live birth rates were compared between the 2 groups.
Main results and the role of chance
The ASC mitochondriashowed higher membrane potential compared to the somatic cells and were spherical in shape with low cristae numbers. The survival rate and the fertilization ratewere comparable in both mitochondria supplemented and control groups. However, theASC mitochondria supplementation seemed to havesignificantly improvedthe blastocyst development capacity from 2cell embryos compared to the control group (P < 0.05;56.8% & 38.2%, respectively).And interestingly, a significantly higher ATP level was found in the mitochondria supplemented group’s 2 cell embryos thanin the control group (P < 0.05;905.6pmol & 561.1pmol respectively). And though it was not statistically significant, a higher potential ofgetting live birth was found in the mitochondria supplemented group thanthe control group after 2 cell embryo transfer.
Limitations, reasons for caution
We acknowledge that the absence of compared data with fresh oocytes’ ICSI, the detailed cellular mechanism behind theimprovement of embryo development, and transgenerational safety in offspring developed fromthe mitochondria supplementation werethe limitations of this study.
Wider implications of the findings
With these results, we propose that ASC mitochondria supplementation could rejuvenate the quality of cryopreserved oocytes and enhance the embryo developmental capacity, signifying another possible approach of mitochondrial transplantation therapy.

Abstract
Abstract
Study question
Does an increase of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+) level in oocytes lead to an improvement of blastulation after IVF?
Summary answer
The addition of NAD+ precursor to the oocyte maturation medium increased NAD+ levels in the oocytes, improving the developmental competence to the blastocyst after IVF.
What is known already
With maternal ageing, the enzyme that degrades NAD+ (CD38) increases in cells and the amount of NAD+ in cells, including oocytes, decreases. The degradation of NAD+ is also increased when cells are isolated from tissues. NAD+, which is an electron carrier used by all eukaryotes, is reduced to NADH via beta-oxidation of fatty acids and the TCA cycle, enhancing ATP synthesis in the mitochondrial electron transfer system. In addition, an enzyme in the inner mitochondrial membrane donates protons from NADH to NADP+ to synthesize NADPH, which maintains the intracellular redox state.
Study design, size, duration
This study is a prospective study using bovine oocytes retrieved from ovaries obtained from a local slaughterhouse in Osaka city. A total of 2,501 bovine oocytes were used in this study.
Participants/materials, setting, methods
Bovine cumulus-oocyte-complexes (COCs) were matured in vitro in the culture (IVM) medium supplemented with 0-100 μM nicotinamide mononucleotide (NMN). Matured oocytes were inseminated with the washed spermatozoa and cultured to assess the blastulation. Matured oocytes were also used to examine their NAD+, reactive oxygen species (ROS) and ATP levels.
Main results and the role of chance
The addition of NMN to the IVM medium increased intracellular NAD+ levels of bovine mature oocytes at 1 µM and above. As a result, it increased intracellular ATP levels and decreased ROS levels at 10 µM and above. It also improved blastocyst formation rates after IVF at 100 µM (P < 0.05; 35%) compared with control (22.2%). Moreover, the supplementation of NMN to the IVM medium decreased the percentage of apoptotic cells and intracellular ROS levels in cumulus cells surrounding oocytes.
Limitations, reasons for caution
This study was conducted in vitro using bovine oocytes. Thus, studies using human samples should be performed before clinical application.
Wider implications of the findings
By replenishing NAD+, we have found a clue to improving the IVM and IVF outcome, which has been shown to have a lower blastocyst formation rate than conventional IVF methods using in vivo matured oocytes. It may also improve the developmental potential of oocytes retrieved from older women.

Abstract
PURPOSE General surgeons are at high risk for work-related musculoskeletal disorders (WRMSDs), especially in their neck and back. The prevalence and risk factors for surgeons' WRMSDs in Japan have not been well surveyed. METHODS A cross-sectional questionnaire survey on WRMSDs was conducted among general surgeons in Japan. Surgeons were asked about the presence and degree of neck, shoulder, and back disability in relation to open and laparoscopic surgery. RESULTS The questionnaire was sent to 174 general surgeons in 21 hospitals and 106 (60.9%) responded. The prevalence of WRMSDs in the last month was 65.1%, and the prevalence at least once in a lifetime was 79.2%. The rate of WRMSDs of the neck and back was higher after open surgery (44.3%, 42.5%) than after laparoscopic surgery (28.2%, 31.1%), but there was no marked difference in shoulder pain. Age was the strongest risk factor for WRMSDs, and the pain scores, prevalence of chronic pain, and rate of WRMSD-related absence from work tended to increase with age. CONCLUSION A questionnaire survey of surgeons in Japan showed that about 80% of surgeons suffer from WRMSDs. Countermeasures for WRMSDs among surgeons are urgently desired to ensure that limited numbers of surgeons work in the operating theatre throughout their career.

Abstract
Introduction and importance Hepatic artery aneurysms (HAAs) are rare. Typical treatment options for HAAs are surgical resection and endovascular treatment but treatment choices remain controversial. Case presentation A 65-year-old woman was rushed to our hospital suspected to have hemorrhage. Contrast-enhanced CT showed a large 12 cm aneurysm of the common hepatic artery (CHA). We diagnosed duodenal hemorrhage due to imminent rupture of the HAA. Angiography was first performed. The inferior pancreaticoduodenal artery was embolized with a coil under interventional radiology technique for arterial bleeding control. Next, we performed resection of the aneurysm and total pancreatectomy with splenic artery reservation. We reconstructed via splenic artery transposition because of the reconstruction distance, vascular system, and stability of the anastomosis. The patient was discharged from the hospital on postoperative day 21 without any complications. Clinical discussion There are two key points in this report. Firstly, the choice of splenic artery transposition is optimal for caliber difference and reconstruction distance. The choice of splenic artery should be considered a reliable option. Secondly, total pancreatectomy avoids exposure to pancreatic juice at the anastomosis site due to pancreatic fistula. Conclusion Splenic artery transposition for HAA is advantageous in adjustability of the caliber difference and securing of sufficient distance. In addition, total pancreatectomy may be acceptable in patients with a normal pancreas to avoid fatal complications such as disruption of the anastomosis and reconstructed artery due to pancreatic juice exposure. Visceral artery aneurysms are rare and often involve the hepatic and splenic arteries. Typical treatment for HAAs are surgical resection and endovascular treatment but treatment choices remain controversial. The reconstruction via splenic artery transposition is an option for reconstruction after resection of HAAs. Splenic artery transposition is advantageous in adjustability of the caliber difference, securing of sufficient distance.

Abstract
Background Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19)-associated pulmonary aspergillosis (CAPA) is a fatal complication in the general population. However, there are few reports on CAPA in patients undergoing hemodialysis (HD). Methods This retrospective observational cohort study was conducted at a single center between December 2020 and June 2021. We enrolled 21 HD patients with COVID-19 undergoing treatment and divided them into two groups, CAPA and non-CAPA (COVID-19 with and without pulmonary aspergillosis), and evaluated their characteristics, clinical outcomes and comorbidities. Results The log-rank test revealed that the 90-day survival rate after the initiation of treatment for COVID-19 was significantly lower in the CAPA (n = 6) than in the non-CAPA group (n = 15) (P = 0.0002), and the 90-day mortality rates were 66.6% and 0% in the CAPA and non-CAPA groups, respectively. In the CAPA group, four patients died due to respiratory failure (on Days 6 and 20), gastrointestinal bleeding (Day 8) and sepsis (Day 33); the reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) for severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) remained positive when they died. The remaining two patients survived and the negative conversion of RT-PCR for SARS-CoV-2 was confirmed on Days 10 and 15. The negative conversion of serum (1, 3)-β-d-glucan (BDG) was confirmed on Day 15 in one patient; the BDG remained positive on Day 64 in the other. Conclusions CAPA is a fatal complication in HD patients and the general population. Therefore, clinicians should consider the possibility of testing for CAPA in patients undergoing HD. Mycological workups may be helpful for the early detection of CAPA.

Usefulness of human jejunal spheroid-derived differentiated intestinal epithelial cells for the prediction of intestinal drug absorption in humans. Drug Metab Dispos 2022; 50:204-213.

Abstract
This study aimed to demonstrate the usefulness of human jejunal spheroid-derived differentiated intestinal epithelial cells as a novel in vitro model for clarifying the impact of intestinal drug-metabolizing enzymes and transporters on the intestinal absorption of substrate drugs in humans. Three-dimensional human intestinal spheroids were successfully established from surgical human jejunal specimens and expanded for a long period using L-WRN-conditioned medium, which contains Wnt3a, R-spondin 3, and noggin. The mRNA expression levels of intestinal pharmacokinetics-related genes in the human jejunal spheroid-derived differentiated intestinal epithelial cells were drastically increased over a 5-day period after seeding compared with those in human jejunal spheroids and were approximately the same as those in human jejunal tissue over a culture period of at least 13 days. Activities of typical drug-metabolizing enzymes (cytochrome P450 [CYP] 3A, CYP2C9, uridine 5'-diphospho-glucuronosyltransferase 1A, and carboxylesterase 2) and uptake/efflux transporters (peptide transporter 1/SLC15A1, P-glycoprotein, and breast cancer resistance protein) in the differentiated cells were confirmed. Furthermore, intestinal availability (Fg) values estimated from the apical-to-basolateral permeation clearance across cell monolayer showed a good correlation with the in vivo Fg values in humans for five CYP3A substrate drugs (Fg range, 0.35-0.98). In conclusion, the functions of major intestinal drug-metabolizing enzymes and transporters could be maintained in human jejunal spheroid-derived differentiated intestinal epithelial cells. This model would be useful for the quantitative evaluation of the impact of intestinal drug-metabolizing enzymes and transporters on the intestinal absorption of substrate drugs in humans. Significance Statement Limited information is available regarding the quantitative prediction of the impact of drug-metabolizing enzymes and transporters on the human intestinal absorption of substrates using in vitro assays with differentiated cells derived from human intestinal spheroids/organoids. We confirmed the functions of typical drug-metabolizing enzymes and transporters in human jejunal spheroid-derived differentiated intestinal epithelial cells and demonstrated that Fg values estimated from apical-to-basolateral permeation clearance across cell monolayers showed a good correlation with in vivo human Fg values for CYP3A substrate drugs.

Abstract
Aim To compare deep learning and experienced physicians in diagnosing gangrenous cholecystitis using computed tomography images and explore the feasibility of diagnostic assistance for acute cholecystitis requiring emergency surgery. Methods This retrospective study included 25 patients with pathologically confirmed gangrenous cholecystitis and 129 patients with noncomplicated acute cholecystitis who underwent computed tomography between 2016 and 2021 at two institutions. All available computed tomography images at the time of the initial diagnosis were used for the analysis. A deep learning model based on a convolutional neural network was trained using 1,517 images of 112 patients (18 patients with gangrenous cholecystitis and 94 patients with acute cholecystitis) and tested with 68 images of 42 patients (seven patients with gangrenous cholecystitis and 35 patients with acute cholecystitis). Three blinded, experienced physicians independently interpreted the test images. The sensitivity, specificity, accuracy, and area under the receiver operating characteristic curve were compared between the convolutional neural network and the reviewers. Results The convolutional neural network (sensitivity, 0.70; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.44–0.87, specificity, 0.93; 95% CI, 0.88–0.96, accuracy, 0.89; 95% CI, 0.81–0.95, area under the receiver operating characteristic curve, 0.84; 95% CI, 0.68–1.00) had achieved a better diagnostic performance than the reviewers (ex. sensitivity, 0.55; 95% CI, 0.30–0.77, specificity, 0.67; 95% CI, 0.62–0.71, accuracy, 0.65; 95% CI, 0.57–0.72, area under the receiver operating characteristic curve, 0.63; 95% CI, 0.44–0.82; P = 0.048 for area under the receiver operating characteristic curve versus convolutional neural network). Conclusions Deep learning had a better diagnostic performance than experienced reviewers in diagnosing gangrenous cholecystitis and has potential applicability for assisting in identifying indications for emergency surgery in the future.

Abstract
Purpose Total or proximal gastrectomy of the upper-third early gastric cancer (u-EGC) often causes severe post-gastrectomy syndrome, suggesting that these procedures are extremely invasive for patients without pathologically positive lymph node (LN) metastasis. This study aimed to evaluate the clinical applicability of a stomach function-preserving surgery, local resection (LR), with prophylactic left gastric artery (LGA)-basin dissection (LGA-BD). Materials and Methods The data of patients with u-EGC (pathologically diagnosed as T1) were retrospectively analyzed. Total gastrectomy was performed in 30 patients, proximal gastrectomy in 45, and subtotal gastrectomy in 6; the LN status was evaluated assuming that the patients had already underwent LR + LGA-BD. This procedure was considered feasible in patients without LN metastases or in patients with cancer in the LGA basin. The reproducibility of the results was also evaluated using an external validation dataset. Results Of the 82 eligible patients, 79 (96.3%) were cured after undergoing LR + LGA-BD, 74 (90.2%) were pathologically negative for LN metastases, and 5 (6.1%) had LN metastases, but these findings were only observed in the LGA basin. Similarly, of the 406 eligible tumors in the validation dataset, 396 (97.5%) were potentially curative. Tumors in the lesser curvature, post-endoscopic resection status, and small tumors (<20 mm) were considered to be stronger indicators of LR + LGA-BD as all subpopulation cases met our feasibility criteria. Conclusions More than 95% of the patients with u-EGC might be eligible for LR + LGA-BD. This function-preserving procedure may contribute to the development of u-EGC without pathological LN metastases, especially for tumors located at the lesser curvature.

Abstract
Background Primary liposarcoma arising from the liver is exceedingly rare. There have been very few reports documenting primary hepatic liposarcoma, especially of the pleomorphic subtype. Surgery is currently the only established treatment method, and the prognosis remains poor. In this report, we present an unusual case of hepatic liposarcoma of the pleomorphic subtype with literature review. In addition, we discuss theories regarding pathogenesis and the pathological and clinical features of primary hepatic liposarcoma to better outline this rare entity. Case presentation An asymptomatic 65-year-old female was found to have a right hepatic mass on a computed tomography scan 2 years after surgical resection of the left adrenal gland and kidney for adrenocortical carcinoma. Laboratory examinations were unremarkable. Magnetic resonance imaging demonstrated a 16-mm mass in the right hepatic lobe. Adrenocortical carcinoma metastasis was suspected. Laparoscopic partial hepatectomy completely removed the tumor with clear margins. Macroscopically, the surgical specimen contained a nodular, yellow–white mass lesion 20 mm in diameter. On pathologic examination, pleomorphic, spindle-shaped tumor cells containing hypochromatic, irregularly shaped nuclei of various sizes formed fascicular structures. Scattered lipoblasts intervened in varying stages. Mitotic cells were frequent. Ki-67 labeling index was 15%. Immunohistochemically, the tumor cells were diffusely positive for vimentin and focally positive for CD34 and alpha-SMA; lipoblasts were focally positive for S-100. Tumor cells were nonreactive for SF-1, inhibin alpha, desmin, HHF35, HMB45, Melan A, MITF, c-kit, DOG1, cytokeratin AE1/AE3, h-caldesmon, STAT6, CD68, MDM2, CDK4, c17, DHEAST, 3BHSD, CD31, Factor 8, and ERG. From these findings, primary hepatic liposarcoma of pleomorphic subtype was diagnosed. The tumor recurred intrahepatically 3 years later, and the patient died 5 months after recurrence. Conclusions In our report, we discussed the rarity, theories regarding pathogenesis, and a review of the literature of this atypical condition. To the best of our search, this is the 14th case of primary hepatic liposarcoma and the 2nd case of the pleomorphic subtype reported throughout the world. Further research regarding the etiology of this unusual clinical entity is warranted to establish effective diagnostic and management protocols.

Abstract
A 74-year-old man presented to our hospital because of anorexia. Upper gastrointestinal endoscopy revealed type 3 gastric cancer. Further examination disclosed metastasis to the perigastric lymph nodes and to the liver, and a diagnosis of non- resectable advanced gastric cancer(cT4N2H1P0M0)in cStage Ⅳ was made. A total of 4 courses of S-1 plus oxaliplatin therapy(80 mg/body/day and 100 mg/m2/cycle, respectively, for 2 weeks followed by a 1-week rest)were administered as the primary chemotherapy. Then, another metastasis to the abdominal lymph nodes and increased liver metastasis were found; thus, the patient's condition was rated as progressive disease(PD). Secondary chemotherapy comprising 10 courses of weekly nab-paclitaxel(nab-PTX)plus ramucirumab(RAM)therapy(100 mg/m2 on days 1, 8, and 15 and 8 mg/kg on days 1 and 15, respectively, every 4 weeks)were administered. Although temporary reductions in the perigastric lymph node metastasis and liver metastasis as compared with the baseline were observed, another metastasis to the abdominal lymph nodes occurred subsequently, resulting in PD. As tertiary chemotherapy, nivolumab therapy(240 mg/body, every 3 weeks) was repeated up to a total of 30 courses over 13 months. This therapy was markedly effective, achieving a near complete response. The patient is currently being followed up as an outpatient.

Abstract
BACKGROUND An open abdomen with frozen adherent bowels is classified as grade 4 in Björck's open abdomen classification, and skin grafting after wound granulation is a typical closure option. We achieved delayed primary fascia closure for a patient who developed open abdomen with enteroatmospheric fistulas due to severe adherent small bowel obstruction. We present here the details of his management. CASE PRESENTATION A 52-year-old man suffered acute abdominal pain during a flight and received an emergency laparotomy due to adhesive small bowel obstruction. Repeated laparotomies were required, and later open abdomen and proximal site jejunostomy were selected. After negative pressure wound therapy, he was transferred to our institution. Two enteroatmospheric fistulas emerged on the exposed intestine, and we diagnosed the condition as a Björck grade 4 open abdomen. After 8 months of wound care and parenteral nutrition, we decided to attempt primary wound closure because the patient required permanent oral restriction and total parenteral nutrition due to short bowel syndrome. A circular incision along the circumference of the exposed bowel allowed us to take a safe approach into the abdominal cavity. We removed the intestinal adhesions completely and resected the bowels, including the fistulas and anastomosed parts. Finally, the abdominal wall defect was reconstructed using the component separation technique, and the patient was discharged without an ostomy. CONCLUSIONS Primary fascia closure for grade 4 open abdomen is hard, but leaving a long interval before radical surgery and applying pertinent wound management may help solve this adverse situation.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Various minimally invasive surgery (MIS) procedures are used for gastric submucosal tumors (SMTs), and their technical difficulties vary. Preoperative understanding of difficulties is crucial; however, objective indicators are lacking. METHODS Gastric SMTs requiring MIS (n = 36) were retrospectively analyzed. Preoperative factors were evaluated using a multivariate linear regression analysis. A scoring system was then constructed, and its feasibility was evaluated. RESULTS Three factors were identified and scored based on the weighted contribution for predicting surgical time: tumor location (cardia, score of "2"; posterior wall of fundus, "1"); tumor size (greater than 4 cm, "1"); and tumor growth appearance (intraluminal, "1"). The summed scores could stratify the surgical time stepwise in each score, and patients who scored higher than 3 had larger intraoperative blood loss and a longer hospital stay. CONCLUSION Our scoring system predicted surgical difficulties and may, therefore, be useful in selecting appropriate surgical approaches for gastric SMTs.

Abstract
Introduction: Obstetric severe perineal laceration can frequently occur as a surgical site infection (SSI), which sometimes leads to rectovaginal fistula after repair. We encountered a rare case of a rectoperineal fistula 5 months after repair of a severe perineal laceration. Case presentation: The patient was a 39-year-old woman who underwent repair of a fourth-degree perineal laceration after vaginal delivery. Five months after primary repair, she presented with perineal swelling and pain followed by uncontrollable flatulence or passage of feces at the perineum, which was finally diagnosed as a rectoperineal fistula. Transperineal repair with fistulous tract excision was performed for the rectoperineal fistula. Closure of the rectum, perineal body, and vagina was performed layer-by-layer constructing a thick perineum to prevent anal dysfunction. The fistula was successfully closed, and the patient did not show any symptoms of fecal incontinence 6 months after surgery. Discussion: As the rectoperineal fistula might have resulted in SSI at the primary repair of the obstetric injury, the delayed occurrence of the rectoperineal fistula was unusual. A perineal approach should be performed for complete fistulous tract excision, reconstruction of a robust perineal structure, and preservation of anal sphincter function.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Persistent pancreatic leakage (PL) due to disconnected pancreatic duct syndrome (DPDS) is associated with severe morbidity and mortality and it usually treated with internal drainage. However, in cases without localized fistula formation, internal drainage is challenging to perform. We report an original one-stage surgical approach for nonlocalized persistent PL, namely, the "intentional internal drainage tube method". CASE PRESENTATION A 49-year-old woman whose main pancreatic duct was penetrated during endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography experienced severe PL. Peritoneal lavage and a second operation involving central pancreatectomy failed to relieve the symptoms, and nonlocalized PL persisted due to DPDS. Although we attempted a radical resection of the pancreatic remnants as a third strategy, the highly inflamed tissue and massive bleeding prevented the completion of the procedure. We sutured the pancreatic head margin and performed a pancreaticojejunostomy to the distal margin. Because these two cut margins could possibly be the source of the persistent PL, we created a hole at the Roux-en-Y jejunal limb, and a silicone drainage tube was inserted into the peritoneal space via this hole. Postoperatively, we continuously suctioned the intentional internal drainage tube, and the residual PL cavity gradually diminished. Even after removal of the tube, the residual PL drained internally into the jejunum through this hole. CONCLUSIONS We present this intentional internal drainage tube method as a novel alternative approach for the management of nonlocalized PL consequential of DPDS. Due to the simplicity and minimally invasive nature of this method, we propose this technique may also be used to treat various types of nonlocalized persistent PL or be used prophylactically for central pancreatectomy.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) accompanied by portal vein tumour thrombus (PVTT) presents an aggressive disease course, worsening liver function reserve, and a high recurrence rate. Clinical practice guidelines recommend systemic therapy as the first-line option for HCC with portal invasion. However, to achieve longer survival in these patients, the treatment strategy should be concluded with removal of the tumour by locoregional therapy. We experienced a case of initially unresectable HCC with main PVTT converted to radical hepatectomy after lenvatinib treatment.
CASE SUMMARY A 59-year-old male with chronic hepatitis C infection visited our clinic as a regular post-surgery follow-up. Contrast-enhanced abdominal computed tomography revealed a liver mass diffusely located at the lateral segment with a massive PVTT extending from the umbilical portion to the main and contralateral third-order portal branches. With the diagnosis of unresectable HCC with Vp4 (main trunk/contralateral branch) PVTT, lenvatinib was started at 12 mg/d. The computed tomography taken 3 mo after starting lenvatinib showed regression of the PVTT, which had retreated to the contralateral first-order portal branch. He tolerated the full dose without major adverse effects. With cessation of lenvatinib for 7 d, radical left lobectomy and PVTT thrombectomy were conducted. The patient’s postoperative course was uneventful. Microscopically, the primary lesion showed fibrotic changes, with moderately to poorly differentiated tumour cells surrounded by granulation tissues in some areas. The majority of the PVTT showed necrosis. He was alive without recurrence for 8 mo.
CONCLUSION This is the first case of HCC with Vp4 PVTT in which radical conversion hepatectomy was succeeded after lenvatinib treatment.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Present treatment strategy for unresectable locally advanced (UR-LA) pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) patients is controversial. Hence, a triple-modal therapy, which is a multidisciplinary strategy, was designed for patients with UR-LA PDAC by adding hyperthermia to conventional chemoradiotherapy at our institution. In this study we aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of this strategy. METHODS Data of 21 UR-LA PDAC patients who underwent the triple-modal treatment were retrospectively analyzed for evaluating the safety and oncological effect of the treatment. The treatment schedule included, five concurrent infusions of gemcitabine (800 mg/m2) followed by hyperthermia (1 h) and X-ray (2 Gy) or proton beam radiation (2.7 Gy) on days 1, 8, 15, 29, and 36. Additional radiotherapies applied a total dose of 50 Gy/25 fr for X-ray radiation or 67.5 Gy/25 fr for proton beam radiation. RESULTS Median overall survival (OS) was 23.6 months. Conversion surgery was performed in 5 patients (23.8%), and a R0 margin could be achieved in 4 of them; however, their median OS (16.3 months) tended to be shorter than that of the patients who did not undergo resection (23.6 months, p = 0.562). Further, the median OS of patients who underwent proton beam radiation (28.0 months) was significantly longer than that of patients who underwent X-ray radiation (13.9 months, p = 0.045). Most adverse events were manageable, except for one grade 3 gastric ulcer. The median tumor size and marker reduction rates were -17% and -91%, respectively. The tumor responses were partial response, stable disease, and progressive disease in 3, 15, and 3 patients, respectively. CONCLUSION Triple-modal strategy, especially when combined with proton beam radiation, is feasible and results in favorable survival outcomes in patients with UR-LA PDAC.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Since the outermost layer of cancer cells is covered with various glycans, targeting these groups may serve as an effective strategy in cancer therapy. We previously reported that fucosylated glycans are specifically expressed on pancreatic cancer cells, and that a protein specifically binding to these glycans, namely rBC2LCN lectin, is a potential guiding drug carrier. In the present study, a novel type of glycan-targeting nanoparticle was developed by modifying the surface of doxorubicin-containing liposomes with rBC2LCN lectin. The efficiency and specificity of this formulation, termed Lec-Doxosome, were examined in vitro and in vivo in human pancreatic cancer models. METHODS Lec-Doxosome was prepared by a post-insertion method based on the insertion of rBC2LCN lectin into the liposomal surface via a lipid linker. The in vitro cellular binding, uptake, and cytotoxicity of Lec-Doxosome were compared with the corresponding parameters in the unmodified liposomes by applying to human pancreatic cancer cell line (Capan-1) with affinity for rBC2LCN lectin. For the in vivo assay, Lec-Doxosome was intravenously injected once per week for a total of 3 weeks into mice bearing subcutaneous tumors. RESULTS The in vitro application of Lec-Doxosome resulted in a 1.2- to 1.6-fold higher intracellular doxorubicin accumulation and a 1.5-fold stronger cytotoxicity compared with the respective rates of accumulation and cytotoxicity in the unmodified liposomes. In vivo, Lec-Doxosome reduced the mean tumor weight (368 mg) compared with that in mice treated with unmodified liposomes (456 mg), without causing any additional adverse events. CONCLUSION It was demonstrated from the results obtained herein that rBC2LCN lectin is a potent modifier, as a means for boosting the efficiency of nanoparticles in the targeting of cancer cell surface glycans.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
In conjunction with fractional flow reserve (FFR), our previous study has shown the accuracy and utility of saline induced Pd/Pa ratio (SPR) for the assessment of myocardial ischemia. However, the potential mechanism how saline injection leads to increase in coronary flow remains speculative.
Purpose
This study aimed to clarify the underlying mechanism of SPR by using swine models.
Methods
The study was conducted in four swine models, and bolus of 25°C saline, 40°C saline, and 25°C dextran was injected at rates of 40mL/5sec through a catheter inserted into the superior mesenteric artery. Its peripheral arterioles were observed and recorded by a digital microscope, and transit time of each fluid and a luminal diameter of arterioles before and after injection were measured.
Results
The result from arterioles diameters of pre- and post-injection (0.049±0.016mm vs. 0.050±0.016mm; P=0.636) indicated that luminal diameters remained unchanged regardless of fluid administration. The transit time of 25°C saline was significantly shorter than 25°C dextran (3.19±0.68sec vs. 6.15±1.19sec; P<0.0001). Although the result showed no significance, the transit time of 40°C saline with lower viscosity was shorten compared to 25°C saline (3.1±0.43sec vs. 3.65±0.46sec; P=0.088).
Conclusions
Compared to 25°C dextran (viscosity of 4.991mPa·s) having the same viscosity as 37°C whole blood, 25°C saline (viscosity of 1.012mPa·s) caused increasing to double the intravascular flow volume without dilating arterioles. The results strongly suggested that the potential mechanism of SPR was viscosity reduction effect. Combined with FFR which is based on vasodilation-mediated hyperemia, these findings may contribute to clarifying the pathophysiology and especially the microcirculation in coronary artery diseases.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
The effective treating method of coronary side branch lesions such as ostial stenosis or thin arteries has not been established. On the other hand, tortuous side branch rarely has stenotic lesions.
Purpose
We focused on coronary side branches on the ventricular free wall, and examined coronary risk factors and bending and stretching motion of branch which can contribute to the development of atherosclerotic lesion.
Methods
In elective and first-time coronary angiograms, we included side branches on the ventricular free wall (>2mm in diameter) and excluded previously treated ones. Study A; we divided arteries into proximal, middle, and distal segment, and examined the presence of tortuosity and stenotic lesions exceeding 50% diameter stenosis (DS) for each segment. A score of 1 was assigned to tortuous segment, and 0 to non-tortuous one. Study B; we included stenotic lesion (>50% DS) in side branch ostium and excluded those extended across main coronary arteries. Relation between lesions and patients' characteristics was examined.
Results
Study A; in 1,828 side branches from 472 patients, middle and distal segments had significantly higher tortuosity score than proximal (0.68, 0.78 vs. 0.34; p<0.0001). On the contrary, proximal segments had more stenotic lesions except ostial stenosis (230 vs. 69, 5; p<0.0001). Study B; in 1,740 side branches from 465 patients, 122 ostial stenotic lesions were found (7.0%). Multivariate logistic regression analysis revealed diabetes mellitus and age as independent contributors to development of ostial stenosis (Table).
Conclusions
Side branch stenosis developed less frequently in middle and distal segments, where stronger ventricular wall motion reinforces bending and stretching motion and tortuosity of arteries. This fact indicates that those characteristics may prevent developing atherosclerosis through increasing shear stress. On the other hand, diabetes mellitus strongly contributes to the development of ostial stenosis. Thus, the developing mechanism of atherosclerotic lesion in side branch on the ventricular free wall differs by the location of lesion.

Abstract
Hepatic epithelioid hemangioendothelioma is a rare neoplasm with a variable malignant potential and a high risk of recurrence. No general treatment guidelines have been established. Fortunately, we were able to minimize immunosuppressant after liver transplantation because of a full HLA-matched case. There was no recurrence 1 year after treatment.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Brugada syndrome (BrS) has been characterized by no apparent structural abnormalities in both ventricles, but, recently, the presence of subtle right ventricular (RV) structural abnormalities in patients with BrS has been reported.
Purpose
The aim of this study was to evaluate the occurrence of RV dysfunction in patients with BrS and their characteristics.
Methods
We enrolled 49 consecutive patients (54 ± 11 years old) diagnosed with Brs and underwent echocardiography from 2017 to 2018. The echocardiographic parameters and electrophysiological examinations were evaluated including RV size and function such as RV outflow and inflow tract diameter, TAPSE, S’, and FAC. Abnormality threshold for parameters of RV dysfunction is defined as followed: a TAPSE of <17 mm, an S’ of <9.5 cm, and an FAC of <35%.
Results
Among 49 patients, one patient showed a TAPSE of <17 mm, 5 patients an S’ of <9.5 cm, and 10 patients an FAC of <35%. Evaluating characteristics of Brs patients with RV dysfunction, all patients were divided into 2 groups by the value of RV FAC; 39 patients showing FAC >35% (group A), 10 patients FAC ≤35% (group B). The comparison of each parameter between 2 groups is shown in Table. TAPSE and S’ in group B were lower than in group A. RV inflow tract diameter in group B was larger than in group A, although there was no differences in RV out tract diameter. There were no significant differences in left ventricular parameters, and grade of tricuspid regurgitation. QRS duration prolonged and the rate of ICD implantation was higher in group B than in group A. Moreover, all patients in group B showed RV wall motion abnormalities and the distribution was as followed: diffuse (n = 2), RV mid (n = 2), RV apex (n = 6).
Conclusions
BrS patients frequently showed RV dysfunction during follow-up, and it may be related to the prolongation of QRS duration. We should pay much attention to the occurrence of RV dysfunction in follow-up echocardiography.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) is a rare malignancy in kidney transplant (KT) recipients. Although dasatinib is the first-line treatment for CML, it has inhibitory activity against CYP3A4; this might increase the blood concentration of tacrolimus (administered to KT patients for immune suppression). Furthermore, tacrolimus can also increase blood concentrations of dasatinib through P-glycoprotein inhibition. METHODS Here, we report a case of sustained molecular remission of CML with prolonged first-line dasatinib therapy in a KT recipient being treated with tacrolimus. A 61-year-old woman developed CML-chronic phase (CML-CP) 38 months post KT. Her maintenance immunosuppressive therapy consisted of tacrolimus, mycophenolate mofetil, and methylprednisolone. Considering the potential drug interaction with tacrolimus, dasatinib was administered at a low dose of 50 mg/day. Her immune status was evaluated regularly by assessing the mixed lymphocyte reaction (MLR) using an intracellular carboxyfluorescein diacetate succinimidyl ester (CFSE)-labeling technique; immunosuppressive therapy was adjusted accordingly. RESULTS The patient achieved complete hematologic remission (CHR) after 1 month of dasatinib treatment. Six months after dasatinib treatment, she achieved a major molecular response. During the observation period, neither antibody-mediated nor acute cellular rejection were encountered in the patient. She remained in CHR with a major molecular response 12 months after the diagnosis of CML-CP. CONCLUSION Data obtained from immune monitoring assays using CFSE-MLR helped us to successfully manage a KT recipient with CML-CP being treated with dasatinib. Drug-drug interactions are a key consideration while designing treatment regimens; such strategies would ensure that drug-drug interactions do not negatively affect the treatment outcomes.
