Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE When multiple complex air pollutants are combined in real-world settings, the reliability of estimating the effect of a single pollutant is questionable. This study aimed to investigate the combined effects of changes in air pollutants on small airway dysfunction (SAD). METHODS We analysed Korea National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (KNHANES) V-VIII database from 2010 to 2018 to elucidate the associations between annual changes in air pollutants over a previous 5-year period and small airway function. We estimated the annual concentrations of five air pollutants: NO2, O3, PM2.5, SO2 and CO. Forced expiratory flow between 25% and 75% of vital capacity (FEF25%-75%) <65% was defined as SAD. Using the quantile generalized-Computation (g-Computation) model, the combined effect of the annual changes in different air pollutants was estimated. RESULTS A total of 29,115 individuals were included. We found significant associations between SAD and the quartiles of annual changes in NO2 (OR = 1.10, 95% CI = 1.08-1.12), O3 (OR = 1.03, 95% CI = 1.00-1.05), PM2.5 (OR = 1.03, 95% CI = 1.00-1.05), SO2 (OR = 1.04, 95% CI = 1.02-1.08) and CO (OR = 1.16, 95% CI = 1.12-1.19). The combined effect of the air pollutant changes was significantly associated with SAD independent of smoking (OR = 1.31, 95% CI = 1.26-1.35, p-value <0.001), and this trend was consistently observed across the entire study population and various subgroup populations. As the estimated risk of SAD, determined by individual-specific combined effect models, increased and the log odds for SAD increased linearly. CONCLUSION The combined effect of annual changes in multiple air pollutant concentrations were associated with an increased risk of SAD.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Ultrasonographic soft markers are normal variants, rather than fetal abnormalities, and guidelines recommend a detailed survey of fetal anatomy to determine the necessity of antenatal karyotyping. Anecdotal reports have described cases with ultrasonographic soft markers in which chromosomal microarray analysis (CMA) revealed pathogenic copy number variants (CNVs) despite normal results on conventional karyotyping, but CMA for ultrasonographic soft markers remains a matter of debate. In this systematic review, we evaluated the clinical significance of CMA for pregnancies with isolated ultrasonographic soft markers and a normal fetal karyotype. METHODS An electronic search was conducted by an experienced librarian through the MEDLINE, Embase, and Cochrane CENTRAL databases. We reviewed 3,338 articles (3,325 identified by database searching and 13 by a hand search) about isolated ultrasonographic soft markers, and seven ultrasonographic markers (choroid plexus cysts, echogenic bowel, echogenic intracardiac focus, hypoplastic nasal bone, short femur [SF], single umbilical artery, and urinary tract dilatation) were included for this study. RESULTS Seven eligible articles were included in the final review. Pathogenic or likely pathogenic CNVs were found in fetuses with isolated ultrasonographic soft markers and a normal karyotype. The overall prevalence of pathogenic or likely pathogenic CNVs was 2.0% (41 of 2,048). The diagnostic yield of CMA was highest in fetuses with isolated SF (9 of 225, 3.9%). CONCLUSION CMA could aid in risk assessment and pregnancy counseling in pregnancies where the fetus has isolated ultrasonographic soft markers along with a normal karyotype.

Abstract
Health risks due to climate change are emerging, particularly from high-temperature exposure. The perceived temperature is an equivalent temperature based on the complete heat budget model of the human body. Therefore, we aimed to analyze the effect of perceived temperature on overall mortality among patients with chronic kidney disease. In total, 32,870 patients with chronic kidney disease in Seoul participated in this retrospective study (2001-2018) at three medical centers. The perceived temperature during the summer season was calculated using meteorological factors, including the air temperature near the automated weather station, dew point temperature, wind velocity, and total cloud amount. We assessed the association between perceived temperature using Kriging spatial interpolation and mortality in patients with CKD in the time-varying Cox proportional hazards model that was adjusted for sex, age, body mass index, hypertension, diabetes mellitus, estimated glomerular filtration rate, smoking, alcohol consumption, and educational level. During the 6.14 ± 3.96 years of follow-up, 3863 deaths were recorded. In multivariable analysis, the average level of perceived temperature and maximum level of perceived temperature demonstrated an increased risk of overall mortality among patients with chronic kidney disease. The concordance index for mortality of perceived temperature was higher than temperature, discomfort index, and heat index. When stratified by age, diabetes mellitus, and estimated glomerular filtration rate, patients with chronic kidney disease with young age (age <65 years) showed higher hazard ratio for mortality (interaction P = 0.049). Moreover, the risk of death in the winter and spring seasons was more significant compared to that of the summer and autumn seasons. Therefore, long-term exposure to high perceived temperature during summer increases the risk of mortality among patients with chronic kidney disease.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Sarcopenia is a risk factor for pneumonia in the elderly, and the timed up-and-go test (TUG) can be used as a screening tool for sarcopenia in this population. This study aimed to evaluate the association between TUG test results and future pneumonia or ventilator care. MATERIALS AND METHODS From the National Health Insurance Service-Senior Cohort database, we identified 19,804 people without neurological diseases who underwent the TUG test in the National Screening Program for Transitional Ages at the age of 66 years during 2007-2008. Gait abnormality was defined as taking 10 s or longer to perform the TUG test. Pneumonia occurrence was defined using the International Classification of Diseases 10th Revision (ICD-10) code for pneumonia (J12-J18, J69), and ventilator care was defined by procedure codes (M5830, M5850, M5867, M5858, M5860, M5859) according to the Healthcare Common Procedure Coding system codes from 2007 to 2015. RESULTS The mean follow-up period was 7.4 years (standard error, SE 0.02). The incidence rates of pneumonia in the normal and slow TUG groups were 38 and 39.5/1000 person-years, respectively. The slow TUG group did not show a higher risk of pneumonia (adjusted hazard ratio [aHR], 1.042; 95% confidence interval [95% CI], 0.988-1.107]). Regarding ventilator care, the incidence was 4.7 and 5.2 cases per 1,000 person-years in the normal and slow TUG groups, respectively. Slow TUG groups also did not show an increased risk of ventilator occurrence (aHR, 1.136, [95% CI = 0.947-1.363]). CONCLUSION The TUG test result was not associated with future pneumonia or ventilator care and may not be useful for predicting pneumonia in community-dwelling elderly individuals. Further studies are needed to identify additional functional tools for sarcopenia associated with future pneumonia occurrences.

Abstract
This prospective observational study investigated the optimal insertion depth of the central venous catheter through the right internal jugular vein using transesophageal echocardiography. After tracheal intubation, the anesthesiologist inserted a probe for esophageal echocardiography into the patient's esophagus. The investigators placed the catheter tip 2 cm above the superior edge of the crista terminalis with echocardiography, which was defined as the optimal point. We measured the inserted length of the catheter. Pearson correlation tests were performed with the measured optimal depth and some patient parameters. We made a new formula for placing the catheter at the optimal position. A total of 89 subjects were enrolled in this trial. The correlation coefficient between the measured optimal depth and the patient's parameters was the highest for patient height (0.703, p < 0.001). We made a new formula of 'height (cm)/10 - 1.5 cm'. The accuracy rate of this formula for the optimal zone was 71.9% (95% confidence interval; 62.4 - 81.4%), which was the highest among the previous formulas or guidelines when we compared. In conclusion, the central venous catheter tip was evaluated with transesophageal echocardiography, and we could make a new formula of 'height (cm)/10 - 1.5', which seemed to be better than other previous guidelines.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Probabilistic graphical modelling (PGM) can be used to predict risk at the individual patient level and show multiple outcomes and exposures in a single model. OBJECTIVE To develop PGM for the prediction of clinical outcome in patients with degenerative cervical myelopathy (DCM) after posterior decompression and to use PGM to identify causal predictors of the outcome. METHODS We included data from 59 patients who had undergone cervical posterior decompression for DCM. The candidate predictive parameters were age, sex, body mass index, trauma history, symptom duration, preoperative and last Japanese Orthopaedic Association (JOA) scores, gait impairment, claudication, bladder dysfunction, Nurick grade, American Spinal Injury Association (ASIA) grade, smoking, diabetes mellitus, cardiopulmonary disorders, hypertension, stroke, Parkinson's disease, dementia, psychiatric disorders, arthritis, ossification of the posterior longitudinal ligament, cord signal change, postoperative kyphosis and the cord compression ratio. RESULTS In regression analyses, preoperative JOA (PreJOA) score, presence of a psychiatric disorder, and ASIA grade were identified as significant factors associated with the last JOS score. Dementia, sex, PreJOA score and gait impairment were causal factors in the PGM. Sex, dementia and PreJOA score were direct causal factors related to the last follow-up JOA (LastJOA) score. Being female, having dementia, and having a low PreJOA score were significantly related to having a low LastJOA score. CONCLUSIONS The causal predictors of surgical outcome for DCM were sex, dementia and PreJOA score. Therefore, PGM may be a useful personalized medicine tool for predicting the outcome of patients with DCM.

Abstract
The polarization of Λ and Λ[over ¯] hyperons along the beam direction has been measured relative to the second and third harmonic event planes in isobar Ru+Ru and Zr+Zr collisions at sqrt[s_{NN}]=200 GeV. This is the first experimental evidence of the hyperon polarization by the triangular flow originating from the initial density fluctuations. The amplitudes of the sine modulation for the second and third harmonic results are comparable in magnitude, increase from central to peripheral collisions, and show a mild p_{T} dependence. The azimuthal angle dependence of the polarization follows the vorticity pattern expected due to elliptic and triangular anisotropic flow, and qualitatively disagrees with most hydrodynamic model calculations based on thermal vorticity and shear induced contributions. The model results based on one of existing implementations of the shear contribution lead to a correct azimuthal angle dependence, but predict centrality and p_{T} dependence that still disagree with experimental measurements. Thus, our results provide stringent constraints on the thermal vorticity and shear-induced contributions to hyperon polarization. Comparison to previous measurements at RHIC and the LHC for the second-order harmonic results shows little dependence on the collision system size and collision energy.

Abstract
Background The 2019 European Society of Urogenital Radiology (ESUR) guidelines for endometrial cancer recommend performing either dynamic contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (CE MRI) or single-phase CE MRI. However, no study has directly compared these options. Therefore, this study compared dynamic versus single-phase CE MRI for the evaluation of myometrial invasion in women with endometrial cancer. Methods This retrospective, single-institution comparative study was conducted among women with surgically proven endometrial cancer, including 30 consecutive women with single-phase CE MRI and 30 age- and pathologic stage-matched women with dynamic CE MRI. Three readers independently compared dynamic and single-phase CE MRI in terms of the tumor-myometrium signal intensity (SI) difference ratio, depth of myometrial invasion, image quality, and image number. Pathologic findings served as a reference standard for the depth of myometrial invasion. Results The estimated mean SI difference ratios of dynamic CE MRI and single-phase CE MRI fell within an equivalence margin of 0.05 (90% confidence intervals [CIs] = [-0.0497 to -0.0165], [-0.0226 to -0.0403], and [-0.0429 to -0.0433], respectively, for readers A, B, and C). The area under the receiver operating characteristic curve for the detection of deep myometrial invasion was not significantly different between the acquisitions (P = .3315, P = .3345, and P = .8593, respectively). Single-phase CE MRI showed significantly better image quality than dynamic CE MRI (P = .0143, P = .0042, and P = .0066, respectively), while the median number of images for dynamic CE MRI was 2.4 times higher than that for single-phase CE MRI. Conclusion Single-phase acquisition may be a better option for CE MRI in women with endometrial cancer than dynamic acquisition.

Abstract
BACKGROUND A previous national study found that Korean children who were breastfed for at least one year had lesser weight gain, lower protein, calcium, and iron intake relative to calories, and different dietary patterns in the second year of life, compared with children weaned before 12 months of age or those who were never breastfed. Therefore, this study aimed to investigate whether growth status, dietary and nutrient intake patterns differed by prolonged breastfeeding (PBF) experience even in the third year of life, when weaning is considered complete. METHODS This cross-sectional study was based on the data of children aged 24 to 35 months from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (2010-2020). Data on anthropometry, dietary behavior, food and nutrient intake, maternal education, and household income were extracted to analyze the association between PBF and growth, dietary and nutrient intake patterns. RESULTS In the final analysis, 31.6% of the 931 children with a birth weight of ≥ 2.5 kg continued to breastfeed for at least 12 months of age, and their mean breastfeeding (BF) duration was 15.9 months. Children with PBF had significantly less postnatal weight gain than those without (P = 0.006). Regarding food group intake, PBF was significantly associated with lower legume and soy product intake (β [95% confidence interval], -10.688 [-19.314, -2.062], P = 0.015) and higher fruit intake (32.978 [3.349, 62.608], P = 0.029), after adjusting for sex, age in month, total caloric intake, maternal education and household income. Regarding nutrient intake, after adjusting for these variables, PBF had significantly associated with higher dietary fiber (β [95% CI], 1.607 [0.218, 2.996], P = 0.023), iron (0.848 [0.317, 1.380], P = 0.002) and niacin (0.728 [0.222, 1.235], P = 0.005) intake and was significantly associated with lower saturated fatty acid intake (-1.217 [-2.364, -0.071], P = 0.037) and percentage of energy from fat (-1.351 [-2.666, -0.035], P = 0.044). CONCLUSION Even in the third year of life, children who have been breastfed for over one year continue to have relatively slow growth. However, they do appear to have better intake of some beneficial nutrients, which may be attributed to healthier dietary intake patterns in children with PBF. The results of this study can be used to support the recommendation of long-term BF for Korean infants and toddlers.

Abstract
Background Synovitis of the glenohumeral (GH) joint and the subacromial (SA) space is commonly observed during arthroscopic rotator cuff surgery. Purpose To investigate the distribution, severity, and clinical implications of synovitis in the GH joint and SA space in patients with a full-thickness rotator cuff tear (RCT). Study Design Case series; Level of evidence, 4. Methods Data were retrospectively collected from 207 patients with a full-thickness RCT who underwent arthroscopic repair. Preoperative parameters used in the clinical assessment included pain, range of motion (ROM), muscle strength, and functional scores. Macroscopic assessment of synovitis was performed intraoperatively in the 3 regions of interest (ROIs) of the GH joint and 4 ROIS of the SA space using an evaluation system. The distribution and severity of synovitis and the association between synovitis and clinical assessment were evaluated. Results Synovitis was more severe in the GH joint than in the SA space (P < .001). Synovitis in the posterior GH joint and the lateral SA space, where most of the rotator cuff was located, was the most severe area among the ROIs of the GH joint and the SA space, respectively (P < .05). All types of pain, except for pain at rest, were associated with synovitis in the posterior GH joint (P < .05). All ROM measures were associated with synovitis in the posterior and inferior GH joint (|r| > 0.20; P < .05 for both). The strength of the supraspinatus and the infraspinatus was associated with synovitis in the posterior GH joint (P < .05). Shoulder function was associated with synovitis in the posterior and inferior GH joint and more in the posterior GH joint (P < .05 for both). Synovitis in the SA space was not associated with any of the clinical parameters. Conclusion Synovitis in the posterior GH joint was the most severe form of synovitis in the GH joint in patients with a full-thickness RCT. Synovitis in the posterior GH joint was closely associated with increased pain and decreased ROM, muscle strength, and functional score. Synovitis in the SA space was milder and not associated with any clinical parameters.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Mindfulness-based training programs have consistently shown efficacy in stress reduction. However, questions regarding the optimal duration and most effective delivery methods remain. OBJECTIVE This research explores a 4-week neurofeedback-assisted mindfulness training for employees via a mobile app. The study's core query is whether incorporating neurofeedback can amplify the benefits on stress reduction and related metrics compared with conventional mindfulness training. METHODS A total of 92 full-time employees were randomized into 3 groups: group 1 received mobile mindfulness training with neurofeedback assistance (n=29, mean age 39.72 years); group 2 received mobile mindfulness training without neurofeedback (n=32, mean age 37.66 years); and group 3 were given self-learning paper materials on stress management during their first visit (n=31, mean age 38.65 years). The primary outcomes were perceived stress and resilience scales. The secondary outcomes were mindfulness awareness, emotional labor, occupational stress, insomnia, and depression. Heart rate variability and electroencephalography were measured for physiological outcomes. These measurements were collected at 3 different times, namely, at baseline, immediately after training, and at a 4-week follow-up. The generalized estimating equation model was used for data analysis. RESULTS The 4-week program showed significant stress reduction (Wald χ22=107.167, P<.001) and improvements in psychological indices including resilience, emotional labor, insomnia, and depression. A significant interaction was observed in resilience (time × group, Wald χ42=10.846, P=.02). The post hoc analysis showed a statistically significant difference between groups 1 (least squares mean [LSM] 21.62, SE 0.55) and 3 (LSM 19.90, SE 0.61) at the posttraining assessment (P=.008). Group 1 showed a significant improvement (P<.001) at the posttraining assessment, with continued improvements through the 1-month follow-up assessment period (LSM 21.55, SE 0.61). Physiological indices were analyzed only for data of 67 participants (22 in group 1, 22 in group 2, and 23 in group 3) due to the data quality. The relaxation index (ratio of alpha to high beta power) from the right electroencephalography channel showed a significant interaction (time × group, Wald χ22=6.947, P=.03), with group 1 revealing the highest improvement (LSM 0.43, SE 0.15) compared with groups 2 (LSM -0.11, SE 0.10) and 3 (LSM 0.12, SE 0.10) at the 1-month follow-up assessment. CONCLUSIONS The study demonstrated that the neurofeedback-assisted group achieved superior outcomes in resilience and relaxation during the 4-week mobile mindfulness program. Further research with larger samples and long-term follow-up is warranted. TRIAL REGISTRATION ClinicalTrials.gov NCT03787407; https://clinicaltrials.gov/ct2/show/NCT03787407.

Abstract
PURPOSE/OBJECTIVE(S) MRI-Linac guided radiotherapy is a novel treatment modality allowing for daily online adaptation of contours and treatment planning. MRI-Linac prostate SBRT (MRL-SBRT) has recently been shown to provide a tangible benefit in decreasing both acute and late toxicity, due to the ability to evaluate soft tissue contrast, directly monitor organ motion, and anatomical changes during the entire treatment course. Multiple MRI-Linac platforms are available, which provide different advantages with regards to imaging and motion management. We undertook this study to assess coverage of the clinical target volume with use of a standard PTV margin in patients receiving either adapt-to-position (ATP) only treatment or a combination of adapt-to-position and adapt-to-shape (ATP+ATS) on the Elekta Unity MR-Linac. MATERIALS/METHODS Data was collected retrospectively in patients who underwent prostate SBRT using a 1.5 T MR-Linac (Unity, Elekta AB, Stockholm, Sweden). Prior to each fraction, determination of ATP or ATS planning was at the discretion of the treating physician. Prostate and organs at risk (OAR's) were contoured on the reference MRI and daily MR image sets acquired prior to each fraction. The prostate PTV consisted of a 5mm margin, except 3mm posteriorly. Contours were merged to account for target and OAR volumes during all fractions. Target volumes from the reference plan were then compared to the clinical target volume (CTV) on pre-treatment MR-Linac imaging as well as intersection with OAR's. RESULTS Nineteen men, median age 72 years (range 67-75), with prostate cancer underwent treatment from May 2021 to January 2023 with MRL-SBRT. The average time for ATP vs ATP+ATS was 45 minutes (range 35-60) and 60 minutes (range 50-80), respectively. The mean CTV treated was 43.4cc (range 31-60) for ATP and 51.8cc (range 36-67) for ATP+ATS. Prior to plan adaptation, target volumes in 92.6% of fractions were not covered completely by the PTV. In the ATP cohort, 89% of fractions had a portion of the CTV uncovered with an average of 2.9cc. In the ATP+ATS cohort, 96.4% had a portion of the CTV uncovered, with an average of 6.9cc. There was no difference in the amount of PTV intersection for ATP or ATP+ATS plans with the rectum (1.1cc vs. 1.5cc) and bladder (9.2cc vs. 12.6cc), respectively. All patients completed the planned course of treatment. CONCLUSION Adaptive radiation therapy for prostate cancer utilizing an MR-Linac based approach with the Elekta Unity was feasible for patients requiring either ATP only or ATP+ATS plans. As expected, ATS plans required longer treatment time, allowing for improved coverage of the target when deemed clinically necessary. Despite a larger overall volume treated in ATS plans, there was no difference in overlap with OARs between ATP and ATS plans. Adaption for each daily fraction and intrafraction motion monitoring improved CT coverage with our pre-specified PTV margin.

Abstract
PURPOSE/OBJECTIVE(S) Accurate measurement of daily target motion on online plan adaptation is essential for re-optimizing the internal target volume (ITV) margins. In this study, by analyzing 2D cine MR images acquired in a 1.5T MR-Linac, we assessed daily target motion and its inter-fractional variations, which is then used to customize ITV margins for MR-based online adaptive plan of liver and pancreatic stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT). MATERIALS/METHODS Twenty-threepatients, enrolled in this study, underwent MR-guided online adaptive SBRT on 1.5 T MR-Linac: liver (n = 12 without compression belt (CB), n = 2 with CB) and pancreas (n = 9 with CB). Target motion in a 2D coronal and sagittal MR images (> 200 cine images to cover multiple breathing cycles), as well as a set of 4D-CT images during the simulation, was analyzed to determine patient specific ITV margins for a reference plan. On every fraction of online adaptive SBRT, the 2D MR images were exported to commercially available software along with a planning MR images: a T1-wighted MR image set for pancreas and or a navigated T2-wighted MR image set for liver. Daily target motion was then measured by overlaying the orthogonal cine image set on the T1- or T2-wighted image set. The ITV margin was adjusted when required prior to online plan optimization RESULTS: Thisstudy successfully assessed the daily target motion and inter-fractional variations in 23 liver or pancreatic cancer patients. We found a discrepancy of daily target motion of orthogonal 2D cine MR images from that of 4D-CT, required to adjust the ITV margin for online plan adaptation. In liver SBRT without CB, 15 out of 45 fractions from 12 patients (33.3 %) went through adjusted ITV margin. The tumor motion was large up to a 2.2 cm along the inferior direction in a patient without CB and thus the patient was treated on a conventional Linac with the active breathing control (ABC) unit for breath-hold. On the other hand, no adjustments were necessary for 2 liver patients with CB. In 9 patients with pancreatic cancers, we found the inter-fractional ITV variations in 3 out of 45 fractions (6.7 %) adjusted the ITV margin. The daily target motion in the pancreatic patients with CB was more stable and relatively smaller than that of the liver patients. CONCLUSION Theorthogonal 2D cine MR images are evidently essential for assessing daily target motion to evaluate the inter-fractional variation and achieve daily ITV-customized liver and pancreatic SBRT in the 1.5 T MR-Linac. The customized ITV approach will improve the treatment outcome of the MR-guided online adaptive therapy.

Abstract
PURPOSE In this study, we investigated the prognostic implications of focal breast edema on preoperative breast magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in patients with breast cancer. METHODS Data of 899 patients with breast cancer at a single institution were retrospectively analyzed. The patients were divided into an edema-positive group (EPG) and an edema-negative group (ENG) based on the presence of peritumoral, prepectoral, or subcutaneous edema. Two radiologists evaluated the presence or absence of focal edema and its subtypes on preoperative breast MRI. Clinicopathologic characteristics and survival outcomes were compared between the two groups and among the three subtypes using Pearson's χ² test, Kaplan-Meier estimator, and Cox proportional hazards model. RESULTS There were 399 (44.4%) and 500 (55.6%) patients in the EPG and ENG, respectively. The EPG showed significantly higher rates of axillary lymph node metastasis (55.6% vs. 19.2%, p < 0.001) and lymphovascular invasion (LVI) (57.9% vs. 12.6%, p < 0.001) than the ENG. Patients in the EPG showed significantly worse overall survival (OS) rate (log-rank p < 0.001; hazard ratio [HR], 4.83; 95% confidence interval [CI], 2.56-9.11) and recurrence-free survival rate (log-rank p < 0.001; HR, 3.00; 95% CI, 1.94-4.63) than those in the ENG. After adjusting for other variables, focal breast edema remained a significant factor affecting the OS rate, regardless of the edema type. Specifically, the presence of subcutaneous edema emerged as the strongest predictor for OS with the highest HR (p < 0.001; HR, 9.10; 95% CI, 3.05-27.15). CONCLUSION Focal breast edema on preoperative breast MRI implies a higher possibility of LVI and axillary lymph node metastasis, which can lead to a poor prognosis. A detailed description of focal breast edema, especially subcutaneous edema, on preoperative breast MRI may provide prognostic predictions. More intensive surveillance is required for patients with breast cancer and focal preoperative breast edema.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of vanishing twin (VT) on maternal serum marker concentrations and nuchal translucency (NT). METHODS This is a secondary analysis of a multicenter prospective cohort study in 12 institutions. Serum concentrations of pregnancy-associated plasma protein-A in the first trimester and alpha-fetoprotein (AFP), total human chorionic gonadotrophin, unconjugated estriol, and inhibin A in the second trimester were measured, and NT was measured between 10 and 14 weeks of gestation. RESULTS Among 6,793 pregnant women, 5,381 women were measured for serum markers in the first or second trimester, including 65 cases in the VT group and 5,316 cases in the normal singleton group. The cases in the VT group had a higher median multiple of the median value of AFP and inhibin A than the normal singleton group. The values of other serum markers and NT were not different between the two groups. After the permutation test with adjustment, AFP and inhibin A remained significant differences. The frequency of abnormally increased AFP was also higher in the VT group than in the normal singleton group. CONCLUSION VT can be considered as an adjustment factor for risk assessment in the second-trimester serum screening test.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Hypertensive disorders during pregnancy are associated with the risk of long-term cardiovascular disease after pregnancy, but it has not yet been determined whether genetic predisposition for hypertensive disorders during pregnancy can predict the risk for long-term cardiovascular disease. OBJECTIVE This study aimed to evaluate the risk for long-term atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease according to polygenic risk scores for hypertensive disorders during pregnancy. STUDY DESIGN Among UK Biobank participants, we included European-descent women (n=164,575) with at least 1 live birth. Participants were divided according to genetic risk categorized by polygenic risk scores for hypertensive disorders during pregnancy (low risk, score ≤25th percentile; medium risk, score 25th∼75th percentile; high risk, score >75th percentile), and were evaluated for incident atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease, defined as the new occurrence of one of the following: coronary artery disease, myocardial infarction, ischemic stroke, or peripheral artery disease. RESULTS Among the study population, 2427 (1.5%) had a history of hypertensive disorders during pregnancy, and 8942 (5.6%) developed incident atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease after enrollment. Women with high genetic risk for hypertensive disorders during pregnancy had a higher prevalence of hypertension at enrollment. After enrollment, women with high genetic risk for hypertensive disorders during pregnancy had an increased risk for incident atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease, including coronary artery disease, myocardial infarction, and peripheral artery disease, compared with those with low genetic risk, even after adjustment for history of hypertensive disorders during pregnancy. CONCLUSION High genetic risk for hypertensive disorders during pregnancy was associated with increased risk for atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease. This study provides evidence on the informative value of polygenic risk scores for hypertensive disorders during pregnancy in prediction of long-term cardiovascular outcomes later in life.

Abstract
PURPOSE To compare refractive prediction errors between phacotrabeculectomy and phacoemulsification. METHODS Refractive prediction error was defined as the difference in spherical equivalent between the predicted value using the Barrett Universal II formula and the actual value obtained at postoperative one month. Forty-eight eyes that had undergone phacotrabeculectomy (19 eyes, open-angle glaucoma; 29 eyes, angle-closure glaucoma) were matched with 48 eyes that had undergone phacoemulsification by age, average keratometry value and axial length (AL), and their prediction errors were compared. The factors associated with prediction errors were analyzed by multivariable regression analyses. RESULTS The phacotrabeculectomy group showed a larger absolute prediction error than the phacoemulsification group (0.51 ± 0.37 Diopters vs. 0.38 ± 0.22 Diopters, p = 0.033). Larger absolute prediction error was associated with longer AL (p = 0.010) and higher intraocular pressure (IOP) difference (p = 0.012). Hyperopic shift (prediction error > 0) was associated with shallower preoperative anterior chamber depth (ACD) (p = 0.024) and larger IOP difference (p = 0.031). In the phacotrabeculectomy group, the prediction error was inversely correlated with AL: long eyes showed myopic shift and short eyes hyperopic shift (p = 0.002). CONCLUSIONS Surgeons should be aware of the possibility of worse refractive outcomes when planning phacotrabeculectomy, especially in eyes with high preoperative IOP, shallow ACD, and/or extreme AL.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE There are several equations for estimating the glomerular filtration rate (GFR), and each method has its limitations. We compared various estimated GFR (eGFR) equations with 24 hours urine creatinine clearance (24u-CCr). DESIGN Sample analysis of randomised controlled trial participants. SETTING AND PARTICIPANTS We compared the mean 24u-CCr values measured 2-3 times for 211 patients with eGFR values calculated using the following equations: isotope dilution mass spectrometry-Modification of Diet in Renal Disease (IDMS-MDRD) equation, Chronic Kidney Disease-Epidemiology Collaboration (CKD-EPI) equation, equations for Koreans (KOR-IDMS-MDRD and KOR-CKD-EPI) and full age spectrum equation. OUTCOME MEASURES Performance of various creatinine-based eGFR equations, including those with Korean coefficients, compared with the results of the 24u-CCr. RESULTS IDMS-MDRD showed the best overall correlation with the 24u-CCr (R=0.949, p<0.001), and KOR-CKD-EPI showed the best agreement in terms of the intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC, 0.969, 95% CI 0.959 to 0.976, p<0.001). In subgroup analysis, IDMS-MDRD-GFR showed the highest ICCs in CKD stages 1 and 3 (ICC 0.872 in stage 1 and 0.927 in CKD stage 3, all p<0.001). KOR-CKD-EPI showed the highest ICC in CKD stage 2 (ICC 0.854, p<0.001). Overall, the accuracy of CKD-EPI (2021) was the highest at P15 (15%) and P30 (30%) (P15: 65.4 and P30: 97.6). In addition, CKD-EPI (2021) showed the highest P30 accuracy in CKD stage 1 (98.7), whereas KOR-IDMS-MDRD showed the highest P30 accuracy in CKD stages 2 and 3 (98.8 and 98.2, respectively). CONCLUSIONS The IDMS-MDRD equation showed the best correlation and overall good agreement with the 24u-CCr; however, the accuracy was low. The most accurate measurements were obtained using the CKD-EPI (2021) equation in CKD stage 1 and the KOR-IDMS-MDRD equation in CKD stages 2-3; nevertheless, the CKD-EPI (2021) equation showed the best overall accuracy.

Abstract
BACKGROUND International authorities recommend prolonged breastfeeding (PBF) for 12-24 months or more with 6 months of exclusive breastfeeding (EBF). Based on the Korean National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (KNHANES) data, this study attempted to help encourage and educate breastfeeding (BF) over 1 year by investigating long-term BF trends and related factors in Korean infants and their mothers. METHODS This cross-sectional study was based on data on children aged 12-23 months and their mothers from 2010 to 2020. BF rates were compared between KNHANES V (2010-2012), KNHANES VI (2013-2015), KNHANES VII (2016-2018), and part of KNHANES VIII (2019-2020). In addition, data related to mothers and infants, including demographics, socioeconomic, educational, and health status, were collected, and their association with BF status was analyzed. RESULTS Of the 933 infants included in the study, the proportions achieving full BF at 6 months of age and PBF at 12 and 18 months were 34.8%, 33.7%, and 7.1%, respectively. Over the past 10 years, the trends of all three BF practices have significantly decreased since 2016 (P < 0.001). Of the 849 infants whose maternal data were available, multiple logistic regression analysis showed that EBF for 6 months (defined as full BF at 1, 3, and 6 months of age) positively correlated with maternal and infants' factors such as unemployed status, past BF experience, no history of drinking, and infants' birth weight of ≥ 2.5 kg. The mother's education level, particularly the nutrition label impact, current employment status, and smoking and drinking status, were significantly associated with PBF for ≥ 12 months but were not related to PBF for ≥ 18 months, except for drinking status. CONCLUSIONS In Korea, the long-term BF rate of ≥ 12 months has declined in the past 10 years, and BF becomes rare after 18 months. Higher maternal interest in nutrition information appears to be driving access to PBF over 12 months than EBF for 6 months or PBF over 18 months. To promote PBF over 12 months in Korea, it may be helpful to strengthen nutrition education that specifically emphasizes the benefits of PBF along with EBF, especially during infant health examinations.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE This study aimed to investigate the prevalence, clinical characteristics, and the correlates of nonsuicidal self-injury (NSSI) in firefighters. We also investigated the mediating role of NSSI frequency in the association between posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD), depression, and suicidal behavior. METHODS A total of 51,505 Korean firefighters completed a web-based self-reported survey, including demographic and occupational characteristics, NSSI, PTSD, depression, and suicidal behavior. Multivariable logistic regression analyses and serial mediation analyses were performed. RESULTS The 1-year prevalence of NSSI was 4.67% in Korean firefighters. Female gender, the presence of recent traumatic experience, and PTSD and depression symptoms were correlated with NSSI. Serial mediation analyses revealed that NSSI frequency mediated the association between PTSD, depression, and suicidal behavior; it indicates more severe PTSD was sequentially associated with more severe depression symptoms and more frequent NSSI, leading to higher risk of suicidal behavior. CONCLUSION NSSI is prevalent and may play a significant mediating role when PTSD is associated with suicidal behavior in firefighters. Our results imply the need for screening and early intervention of NSSI in firefighters.

Abstract
Synthetic and functional grafts are a great alternative to conventional grafts. They can provide a physical support and the precise signaling for cells to heal damaged tissues. In this study, a novel RGD peptide end-functionalized poly(ethylene glycol)-b-poly(lactic acid)-b-poly(globalide)-b-poly(lactic acid)-b-poly(ethylene glycol) (RGD-PEG-PLA-PGl-PLA-PEG-RGD) is synthetized and used to prepare functional scaffolds. The PGl inner block is obtained by enzymatic ring-opening polymerization of globalide. The outer PLA blocks are obtained by ring-opening polymerization of both, l-lactide or a racemic mixture, initiated by the α-ω-telechelic polymacrolactone. The presence of PGl inner block enhances the toughness of PLA-based scaffolds, with an increase of the elongation at break up to 300% when the longer block of PGl is used. PLA-PGl-PLA copolymer is coupled with α-ω-telechelic PEG diacids by esterification reaction. PEGylation provides hydrophilic scaffolds as the contact angle is reduced from 114° to 74.8°. That difference improves the contact between the scaffolds and the culture media. Moreover, the scaffolds are functionalized with RGD peptides at the surface significantly enhancing the adhesion and proliferation of bone marrow-derived primary mesenchymal stem cells and MC3T3-E1 cell lines in vitro. These results place this multifunctional polymer as a great candidate for the preparation of temporary grafts.

Abstract
The elliptic (v_{2}) and triangular (v_{3}) azimuthal anisotropy coefficients in central ^{3}He+Au, d+Au, and p+Au collisions at sqrt[s_{NN}]=200 GeV are measured as a function of transverse momentum (p_{T}) at midrapidity (|η|<0.9), via the azimuthal angular correlation between two particles both at |η|<0.9. While the v_{2}(p_{T}) values depend on the colliding systems, the v_{3}(p_{T}) values are system independent within the uncertainties, suggesting an influence on eccentricity from subnucleonic fluctuations in these small-sized systems. These results also provide stringent constraints for the hydrodynamic modeling of these systems.

Abstract
PURPOSE This study was conducted to assess the role of renal Doppler ultrasonography (US) in predicting non-diabetic kidney disease (NDKD) in patients with diabetes, using histologic findings as the reference standard. METHODS Fifty-nine consecutive patients with diabetes who underwent renal Doppler US and native kidney biopsy were included in this retrospective, single-institutional study. Based on histologic findings, patients were classified as having diabetic nephropathy (DN) or NDKD. Renal Doppler US findings, including cortical echogenicity, corticomedullary differentiation, and the resistive index (RI), were compared between DN and NDKD. A subgroup analysis according to chronic kidney disease (CKD) status was also performed. RESULTS Cortical echogenicity and corticomedullary differentiation showed no significant differences between DN and NDKD (P=0.887 and P>0.99, respectively), whereas the RI was significantly higher in patients with DN than in those with NDKD (P=0.032). The subgroup analysis revealed a significant difference in the RI between DN and NDKD in patients with diabetes and CKD (P=0.010), but a significant difference was not found in those without CKD (P=0.713). When limited to patients with diabetes and CKD, the RI had an area under the curve value of 0.759, sensitivity of 57.1%, specificity of 81.0%, positive likelihood ratio of 3.0, and negative LR of 0.5 for predicting NDKD, using a cutoff value of ≤0.69. CONCLUSION Renal Doppler US may be useful in predicting NDKD in patients with diabetes and CKD.

Abstract
We report here the first observation of directed flow (v_{1}) of the hypernuclei _{Λ}^{3}H and _{Λ}^{4}H in mid-central Au+Au collisions at sqrt[s_{NN}]=3 GeV at RHIC. These data are taken as part of the beam energy scan program carried out by the STAR experiment. From 165×10^{6} events in 5%-40% centrality, about 8400 _{Λ}^{3}H and 5200 _{Λ}^{4}H candidates are reconstructed through two- and three-body decay channels. We observe that these hypernuclei exhibit significant directed flow. Comparing to that of light nuclei, it is found that the midrapidity v_{1} slopes of _{Λ}^{3}H and _{Λ}^{4}H follow baryon number scaling, implying that the coalescence is the dominant mechanism for these hypernuclei production in the 3 GeV Au+Au collisions.

Abstract
We report the triton (t) production in midrapidity (|y|<0.5) Au+Au collisions at sqrt[s_{NN}]=7.7-200 GeV measured by the STAR experiment from the first phase of the beam energy scan at the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider. The nuclear compound yield ratio (N_{t}×N_{p}/N_{d}^{2}), which is predicted to be sensitive to the fluctuation of local neutron density, is observed to decrease monotonically with increasing charged-particle multiplicity (dN_{ch}/dη) and follows a scaling behavior. The dN_{ch}/dη dependence of the yield ratio is compared to calculations from coalescence and thermal models. Enhancements in the yield ratios relative to the coalescence baseline are observed in the 0%-10% most central collisions at 19.6 and 27 GeV, with a significance of 2.3σ and 3.4σ, respectively, giving a combined significance of 4.1σ. The enhancements are not observed in peripheral collisions or model calculations without critical fluctuation, and decreases with a smaller p_{T} acceptance. The physics implications of these results on the QCD phase structure and the production mechanism of light nuclei in heavy-ion collisions are discussed.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Although the optimal duration of breastfeeding remains unclear, breastfeeding is generally recommended exclusively for the first 6 months of life, which continues into late infancy. However, the awareness regarding the effects of long-term breastfeeding is relatively low compared with that of breastfeeding in early infancy. We aimed to investigate the growth and nutritional characteristics of the children with prolonged breastfeeding (PBF) over 1 year. METHODS This cross-sectional study was based on the data of children aged 12 to 23 months from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (2010-2020) conducted by the Korean Center for Disease Control and Prevention. Data on anthropometric measurements, dietary behavior, and food and nutrient intake were extracted, and the association between PBF and growth, nutritional status, and dietary patterns were analyzed. RESULTS Of the 872 children with a birth weight of ≥ 2.5 kg in the final analysis, 34.2% continued breastfeeding over 12 months of age, and their median breastfeeding duration was 14.2 months. Children with PBF were more likely to have lower current body weight (P < 0.001) and weight gain (P < 0.001), lower daily protein (P = 0.012), calcium (P < 0.001), and iron (P < 0.001) intake per calorie compared with children weaned by 12 months of age or those who were never breastfed. Furthermore, they were started on complementary food at 6 months or later rather than 4-5 months (P < 0.001), consumed cow's milk earlier (P = 0.012), and consumed probiotics as dietary supplements (P < 0.001) significantly less commonly. When comparing the intake of food groups, children with PBF had a significantly higher intake of cereals and grains (P = 0.023) and fruits (P = 0.020) and a significantly lower intake of bean products (P = 0.020) and milk and dairy products (P = 0.003). CONCLUSION Korean children who continued breastfeeding over 12 months of age showed distinct characteristics in terms of growth, nutritional status, and dietary patterns in the second year of life compared to children who did not. Long-term additional research on their growth and nutritional status may be needed; however, these findings are significant as important fundamental data for nutritional counseling to establish healthy PBF.

Abstract
In drug discovery, efficient screening of protein-drug interactions (PDIs) is hampered by the limitations of current biophysical approaches. Here, we develop a biological nanopore sensor for single-molecule detection of proteins and PDIs using the pore-forming toxin YaxAB. Using this YaxAB nanopore, we demonstrate label-free, single-molecule detection of interactions between the anticancer Bcl-xL protein and small-molecule drugs as well as the Bak-BH3 peptide. The long funnel-shaped structure and nanofluidic characteristics of the YaxAB nanopore enable the electro-osmotic trapping of diverse folded proteins and high-resolution monitoring of PDIs. Distinctive nanopore event distributions observed in the two-dimensional (ΔI/Io-versus-IN) plot illustrate the ability of the YaxAB nanopore to discriminate individual small-molecule drugs bound to Bcl-xL from non-binders. Taken together, our results present the YaxAB nanopore as a robust platform for label-free, ultrasensitive, single-molecule detection of PDIs, opening up a possibility for low-cost, highly efficient drug discovery against diverse drug targets.

Abstract
We report on measurements of sequential ϒ suppression in Au+Au collisions at sqrt[s_{NN}]=200 GeV with the STAR detector at the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC) through both the dielectron and dimuon decay channels. In the 0%-60% centrality class, the nuclear modification factors (R_{AA}), which quantify the level of yield suppression in heavy-ion collisions compared to p+p collisions, for ϒ(1S) and ϒ(2S) are 0.40±0.03(stat)±0.03(sys)±0.09(norm) and 0.26±0.08(stat)±0.02(sys)±0.06(norm), respectively, while the upper limit of the ϒ(3S) R_{AA} is 0.17 at a 95% confidence level. This provides experimental evidence that the ϒ(3S) is significantly more suppressed than the ϒ(1S) at RHIC. The level of suppression for ϒ(1S) is comparable to that observed at the much higher collision energy at the Large Hadron Collider. These results point to the creation of a medium at RHIC whose temperature is sufficiently high to strongly suppress excited ϒ states.

Abstract
Although the association of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) with obesity or sarcopenia is known, few studies have investigated the combined effect of various body composition parameters on the risk of NAFLD. Thus, the aim of this study was to evaluate effects of interactions between various body composition parameters, including obesity, visceral adiposity, and sarcopenia, on NAFLD. Data of subjects who underwent health checkups between 2010 and December 2020 were retrospectively analyzed. Body composition parameters including appendicular skeletal muscle mass (ASM) and visceral adiposity were assessed using bioelectrical impedance analysis. Sarcopenia was defined as ASM/weight beyond two standard deviations below the gender-specific mean for healthy young adults. NAFLD was diagnosed using hepatic ultrasonography. Interaction analyses, including relative excess risk due to interaction (RERI), synergy index (SI), and attributable proportion due to interaction (AP), were performed. Among a total of 17,540 subjects (mean age: 46.7 years, 49.4% males), the prevalence of NAFLD was 35.9%. The odds ratio (OR) of interaction between obesity and visceral adiposity affecting NAFLD was 9.14 (95% CI: 8.29-10.07). The RERI was 2.63 (95% CI: 1.71-3.55), SI was 1.48 (95% CI: 1.29-1.69) and AP was 29%. The OR of interaction between obesity and sarcopenia affecting NAFLD was 8.46 (95% CI: 7.01-10.21). The RERI was 2.21 (95% CI: 0.51-3.90). SI was 1.42(95% CI: 1.11-1.82) and AP was 26%. The OR of interaction between sarcopenia and visceral adiposity affecting NAFLD was 7.25 (95% CI: 6.04-8.71), however, there was no significant additive interaction with RERI = 0.87 (95% CI: -0.76 to 2.51). Obesity, visceral adiposity, and sarcopenia were found to be positively associated with NAFLD. Obesity, visceral adiposity, and sarcopenia were found to have additive interaction effects on NAFLD.

Abstract
Abstract
Background: Obesity, the modern ‘epidemic’, has shared correlation with fatty liver disease and breast cancer. However, previous studies on the relation between fatty liver and breast cancer have shown conflicting results on the impact of fatty liver on the survival and recurrence of breast cancer patients. And there was no attempt to find out the effect of liver fibrosis, which is the consequence of fatty liver disease, on female breast cancer patients. So we attempted to investigate the prognostic value of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) and non-alcoholic steatohepatitis(NASH)-related liver fibrosis in patients with breast cancer undergoing surgery, using noninvasive tools like liver-to-spleen attenuation(L/S) ratio and Fibrosis-4(FIB-4) score, respectively. Methods: A total of 933 patients diagnosed with primary invasive breast cancer and receiving surgery at the university-affiliated referral center between April 2006 and December 2019 were included. After excluding patients who had significant alcohol consumption and hepatitis viral infection,838 patients were divided into two groups according to the L/S ratio of 1 measured by the preoperative low-dose computed tomography: 91 patients(10.9%) with a L/S ratio< 1 vs 747 patients(89.1%) with a L/S ratio≥1. They were also divided into two groups based on the FIB-4 score of 2.67: 804 patients (95.9%) with a FIB-4 score< 2.67 vs 34 patients (4.1%) with a FIB-4 score≥2.67. The Cox proportional hazards model was used to calculate the hazard ratio (HR) and the 95% confidence interval (CI). Results: Patients with NAFLD were older, had higher BMI, and had a higher proportion of mastectomy and hyper-transaminasemia. They showed worse overall, disease-free, and regional recurrence-free survivals compared to those without NAFLD (p=0.008, 0.043, and 0.017, respectively), but no significant differences in local recurrence-free, systemic recurrence-free, and contralateral breast cancer-free survivals. The survival outcome of breast cancer did not show any relationship with NASH-related liver fibrosis (overall survival; p=0.061, disease-free survival; p=0.557). NAFLD was a significant risk factor for mortality in multivariable analysis (HR, 2.077; 95% CI, 1.052–4.102; p=0.035). After stratifying for subtypes of breast cancer, the L/S ratio remained a significant predictor of overall, disease-free, local recurrence-free, and regional recurrence-free survivals in only the hormone receptor-positive/HER2−negative subtype (p=0.007, 0.005, 0.009, and < 0.001, respectively). Conclusion: NAFLD is significantly associated with decreased overall survival, disease-free survival and increased regional recurrence in patients with breast cancer especially the hormone receptor-positive/HER2−negative subtype. NASH-related fibrosis was not associated with survival. Therefore, NAFLD should be assessed in the preoperative setting for predicting long-term prognoses of breast cancer patients

Abstract
PURPOSE The purpose of the study was to investigate whether the position of the central retinal vascular trunk (CRVT), as a surrogate for lamina cribrosa (LC) offset, is associated with the dominant hemisphere of visual field defect in primary angle-closure glaucoma (PACG) eyes. METHODS Central retinal vascular trunk deviation was measured from Bruch's membrane opening (BMO) centre, which was delineated by OCT imaging, using the horizontal midline as a reference. The dominant hemisphere developing visual field defect was defined as three connected abnormal points (having a p-value < 5% probability of being normal) appearing in only one hemisphere or each point of the hemisphere having a statistically worse value compared with its mirrored point in the opposite hemisphere on pattern deviation plots. RESULTS One hundred five (80%) of 132 eyes with PACG had dominant hemisphere of visual field defect initially: 70 eyes (67%) in the superior and 35 eyes (33%) in the inferior hemisphere. The CRVT was located superiorly in the dominant superior visual field defect group (p < 0.001). A logistic regression analysis revealed that superior deviation of the CRVT was the only factor associated with dominant superior visual field defect (p < 0.001). Externally oblique border (EOB) presence was associated with larger BMO (p = 0.005) and angular deviation of CRVT (p = 0.002). CONCLUSIONS Central retinal vascular trunk deviation was associated with the dominant hemisphere of visual field defect in PACG eyes. This finding implies that the LC position relative to the BMO centre (LC/BMO offset) may incur structural vulnerability in the optic nerve head of PACG eyes.

Abstract
We report the beam energy and collision centrality dependence of fifth and sixth order cumulants (C_{5}, C_{6}) and factorial cumulants (κ_{5}, κ_{6}) of net-proton and proton number distributions, from center-of-mass energy (sqrt[s_{NN}]) 3 GeV to 200 GeV Au+Au collisions at RHIC. Cumulant ratios of net-proton (taken as proxy for net-baryon) distributions generally follow the hierarchy expected from QCD thermodynamics, except for the case of collisions at 3 GeV. The measured values of C_{6}/C_{2} for 0%-40% centrality collisions show progressively negative trend with decreasing energy, while it is positive for the lowest energy studied. These observed negative signs are consistent with QCD calculations (for baryon chemical potential, μ_{B}≤110 MeV) which contains the crossover transition range. In addition, for energies above 7.7 GeV, the measured proton κ_{n}, within uncertainties, does not support the two-component (Poisson+binomial) shape of proton number distributions that would be expected from a first-order phase transition. Taken in combination, the hyperorder proton number fluctuations suggest that the structure of QCD matter at high baryon density, μ_{B}∼750 MeV at sqrt[s_{NN}]=3 GeV is starkly different from those at vanishing μ_{B}∼24 MeV at sqrt[s_{NN}]=200 GeV and higher collision energies.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The association between abdominal visceral adipose tissue and the risk of incident chronic kidney disease according to body mass index in the Asian population, remains unclear. We evaluated the impact of abdominal adiposity stratified by body mass index on the risk of incident chronic kidney disease. METHODS A cohort study included 11,050 adult participants who underwent health check-ups and re-evaluated the follow-up medical examination at a single university-affiliated healthcare center. Cross-sectional abdominal adipose tissue areas were measured using computed tomography. The primary outcome was progression to chronic kidney disease (estimated glomerular filtration rate <60 ml/min/1.73m2). The highest quartile of visceral adipose tissue was used for the cut-off of central obesity. RESULTS During the mean of 5.6 follow-up years, 104 incident chronic kidney disease cases were identified. The risk for chronic kidney disease incidence was significantly increased in the 3rd and 4th quartile ranges of visceral adipose tissue [hazard ratio (95% confidence interval)]: 4.59 (1.48-14.30) and 7.50 (2.33-24.20), respectively. In the analysis stratified by body mass index, the chronic kidney disease incidence risk was increased in the highest quartile range of visceral adipose tissue in the normal weight group: 7.06 (1.35-37.04). However, there was no significant relationship between visceral adipose tissue and chronic kidney disease in the obese group. Compared to the subjects with normal weight and absent central obesity, the hazard ratio for chronic kidney disease incidence was 2.32 (1.26-4.27) among subjects with normal weight and central obesity and 1.81 (1.03-3.15) among subjects with obesity and central obesity. CONCLUSION Visceral adipose tissue was a significant risk factor for subsequent chronic kidney disease progression, and the association was identified only in the normal weight group. Normal-weight central obesity was associated with excess risk of chronic kidney disease, similar to the risk in the group with obesity and central obesity.

Abstract
Elliptic flow measurements from two-, four-, and six-particle correlations are used to investigate flow fluctuations in collisions of U+U at sqrt[s_{NN}]=193 GeV, Cu+Au at sqrt[s_{NN}]=200 GeV and Au+Au spanning the range sqrt[s_{NN}]=11.5-200 GeV. The measurements show a strong dependence of the flow fluctuations on collision centrality, a modest dependence on system size, and very little if any, dependence on particle species and beam energy. The results, when compared to similar LHC measurements, viscous hydrodynamic calculations, and trento model eccentricities, indicate that initial-state-driven fluctuations predominate the flow fluctuations generated in the collisions studied.

Abstract
Purpose We investigated the effects of economic status (classified based on insurance type and residential area) on oncological outcomes of prostate cancer using a nationwide database. We additionally investigated oncological outcomes based on economic status and residential area in patients who underwent surgical treatment. Materials and Methods The study included 75,518 men with newly diagnosed prostate cancer between 2009 and 2018 in whom oncological outcomes were investigated based on economic status and residential area. Among the 75,518 men with prostate cancer, the data of 29,973 men who underwent radical prostatectomy were further analyzed. Multivariate analysis was performed to determine the effects of economic status and residential area on postoperative oncological outcomes. Results Among the 75,518 patients with prostate cancer, 3,254 (4.31%) were medical aid beneficiaries. The 5-year overall survival rates were 81.2% and 64.8% in the health insurance and medical aid groups, respectively. Radical prostatectomy was more common in the health insurance group, and surgical intervention was significantly affected by the residential area. Among patients who underwent surgery, 5-year androgen deprivation therapy-free and overall survival were better in the health insurance group. Multivariate analysis showed that insurance type and residential area were significantly associated with the androgen deprivation therapy-free and overall survival after adjustment for other variables. Conclusion Economic status and residential area were shown to affect not only treatment patterns but also post-diagnosis and postoperative oncological outcomes. Political support for early diagnosis and appropriate treatment of prostate cancer is warranted for medically vulnerable populations.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Anatomic repair of a torn rotator cuff tendon on the greater tuberosity (GT) is an important surgical goal in rotator cuff repair. However, few studies have investigated whether the efforts made to maximize coverage of the GT are associated with the clinical and structural outcomes after rotator cuff repair surgery. PURPOSE To investigate whether the quality of repair at the time of surgery is associated with clinical and structural outcomes after surgery and to identify factors influencing the quality of repair. STUDY DESIGN Cohort study; Level of evidence, 3. METHODS Data were retrospectively collected from 141 patients who underwent arthroscopic rotator cuff repair between 2008 and 2016. All repairs were classified according to the amount of postoperative GT coverage: A, complete coverage of the GT (n = 96); B, incomplete coverage, comprising more than half of GT (n = 27); C, incomplete coverage, comprising less than half of the GT (n = 16); and D, exposure of the glenohumeral joint (n = 2). All patients underwent magnetic resonance imaging 1 year after surgery. Clinical outcomes and structural integrity based on Sugaya classification were assessed 2 years and 1 year after surgery, respectively. Preoperative factors associated with the postoperative GT coverage (measured at the close of surgery) were identified using a multivariable proportional odds cumulative logit model. RESULTS The forward flexion strength in group A (10.3 ± 4.6 lb) was significantly greater than that in group C (6.5 ± 3.7 lb) (P = .003) 2 years after surgery. The postoperative Constant score in group A (76.6 ± 11.5) was greater than that in group C (66.7 ± 15.6) (P = .018). The number of cases that showed retearing of the repaired tendon was as follows: group A (5/96; 5.2%), group B (7/27; 25.9%), and group C (10/16; 62.5%). There was no significant difference in the changes of pain visual analog scale scores among groups 2 years after surgery (all P > .05). Also, there was no significant difference in the changes of range of motion in all directions among groups 2 years after surgery (all P > .05). Patients with preoperative GT coverage B included in the postoperative GT coverage groups through surgery were as follows: group A (23/45; 51.1%), group B (17/45; 37.8%), and group C (5/45; 11.1%). Preoperative GT coverage was the only independent factor that was associated with GT coverage in multivariable analysis. CONCLUSION Quality of repair, measured as the extent of postoperative GT coverage at the time of surgery, was associated with clinical and structural outcomes after rotator cuff repair surgery.

Abstract
The reported beneficial effects of statins on cardiovascular outcome based on risk assessment are inconsistent. Therefore, we investigated statin therapy effectiveness for the primary prevention of cardiovascular disease (CVD), according to the Korean Risk Prediction Model (KRPM). Subjects aged 40–79 years with low density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) of < 190 mg/dL and without CVD history were categorized as statin users or non-users using the National Health Insurance Service-National Sample Cohort (NHIS-NSC) database, Korea, 2002–2015. The 10-year atherosclerotic CVD (ASCVD) risk was calculated using the validated KRPM and categorized as low, borderline, intermediate, or high-risk groups; the incidence of major adverse cardiovascular events (MACEs) was compared over a mean follow-up period of 5.7 years using Cox proportional hazard models. The MACE incidence risk was decreased in statin users [hazard ratio (HR) 0.90, 95% confidence interval (CI) (0.84–0.98)]. However, there was an increased risk of MACE incidence in low-risk statin users [HR 1.80, 95% CI (1.29–2.52)], and no significant relationship was identified between statin use and MACE in the borderline [HR 1.15, 95% CI (0.86–1.54)] and intermediate-risk [HR 0.94, 95% CI (0.85–1.03)] groups. The risk of MACE incidence decreased only in the high CVD risk group among statin users. Statin use is not associated with MACE reduction in low- to intermediate-risk participants. Therefore, individuals with LDL-C level of < 190 mg/dL and low ASCVD risk should consider statin therapy only when CVD risk is proved obvious using an appropriate ASCVD risk tool.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Previous studies showed that gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) can be a risk factor for subsequent atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease. However, there is a paucity of information regarding diverse cardiovascular outcomes in elderly women after GDM. In the current study, we examined whether women with a history of GDM have an increased risk for long-term overall cardiovascular outcomes. METHODS Among the UK participants, we included 219,330 women aged 40 to 69 years who reported at least one live birth. The new incidence of diverse cardiovascular outcomes was compared according to GDM history by multivariable Cox proportional hazard models. In addition, causal mediation analysis was performed to examine the contribution of well-known risk factors to observed risk. RESULTS After enrollment, 13,094 women (6.0%) developed new overall cardiovascular outcomes. Women with GDM history had an increased risk for overall cardiovascular outcomes [adjusted HR (aHR) 1.36 (95% CI 1.18-1.55)], including coronary artery disease [aHR 1.31 (1.08-1.59)], myocardial infarction [aHR 1.65 (1.27-2.15)], ischemic stroke [aHR 1.68 (1.18-2.39)], peripheral artery disease [aHR 1.69 (1.14-2.51)], heart failure [aHR 1.41 (1.06-1.87)], mitral regurgitation [aHR 2.25 (1.51-3.34)], and atrial fibrillation/flutter [aHR 1.47 (1.18-1.84)], after adjustment for age, race, BMI, smoking, early menopause, hysterectomy, prevalent disease, and medication. In mediation analysis, overt diabetes explained 23%, hypertension explained 11%, and dyslipidemia explained 10% of the association between GDM and overall cardiovascular outcome. CONCLUSIONS GDM was associated with more diverse cardiovascular outcomes than previously considered, and conventional risk factors such as diabetes, hypertension, and dyslipidemia partially contributed to this relationship.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION This prospective cohort study investigated the clinical role of circulating tumor necrosis factor receptor (cTNFR) levels as prognostic biomarkers in severe acute kidney injury (AKI) patients requiring continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT). METHODS We enrolled 136 patients from 7 hospitals participating in the VENUS (VolumE maNagement Under body composition monitoring in critically ill patientS on CRRT) trial from July 2017 to October 2019. The levels of cTNFR1 and cTNFR2 were measured using plasma samples collected on days 0 (D0), 2 (D2), and 7 (D7). Patients were divided into high- and low-cTNFR groups based on their receptor concentrations. RESULTS D0 concentrations of cTNFR1 and cTNFR2 were positively correlated with one another (R2 = 0.37, p < 0.001). The high-cTNFR1 group displayed a higher in-hospital mortality rate than the low-TNFR1 group (p = 0.002). Moreover, the mortality rate was significantly higher in the high-TNFR1 group than in the low-TNFR1 group after adjusting for age, sex, and acute physiology, and chronic health evaluation II scores (hazard ratio 1.82, 95% confidence interval 1.09-3.03, p = 0.025). D2 and D7 cTNFR1 levels were also associated with in-hospital mortality; contrastingly, cTNFR2 levels were not associated with this outcome. Additionally, patients were divided into three groups according to the change in cTNFR levels from D0 to D2 (ΔcTNFR). Those in the highest ΔcTNFR tertile had a higher mortality rate than the remaining patients (p = 0.033 for ΔcTNFR1; p = 0.025 for ΔcTNFR2). Patients who underwent AKI-to-chronic kidney disease transition had higher concentrations of cTNFR1 (p = 0.014). DISCUSSION/CONCLUSION Plasma cTNFR1 concentrations at CRRT initiation and changes in cTNFR1 and 2 levels immediately following CRRT initiation are significant biomarkers for predicting the outcomes of patients with severe AKI.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Patients with atrial fibrillation (AF) who experienced stroke before are at high risk for dementia. Although early rhythm control in patients with AF reduces the risk of stroke, there is a lack of evidence on whether early rhythm control reduces the risk of developing dementia in patients with new-onset AF and a history of prior stroke.
Purpose
To compare the risk of dementia between early rhythm control therapy and usual care in patients with new-onset AF and a history of prior stroke
Methods
Using the Korean nationwide claims database, we identified patients who were newly diagnosed as AF and had a history of prior stroke. Patients with prevalent dementia were excluded. Patients who received rhythm control therapy, including antiarrhythmic drug, direct current cardioversion, or AF catheter ablation, within 1 year after incident AF were defined as the early rhythm control group, otherwise as the usual care group. The inverse probability of treatment weighting method was used to balance baseline characteristics between the two groups. The incidence of all dementia, Alzheimer dementia, and vascular dementia were evaluated during follow-up.
Results
A total of 41,370 patients were included (mean age, 70±11 years; mean CHA2DS2-VASc score 5.3±1.6; 43% female); 10,213 were in the early rhythm control group and 31,157 in the usual care group. All patients received oral anticoagulants. During a median 2.7 years of follow-up, 6414 patients developed incident dementia (incidence rate, 4.9 per 100 person-years). Compared to usual care, early rhythm control was associated with lower risks of all dementia, Alzheimer dementia, and vascular dementia (weighted hazard ratio [95% confidence interval], 0.825 [0.776–0.876], 0.831 [0.774–0.893], and 0.800 [0.702–0.913], respectively, all p<0.001) (Figure 1). The beneficial effect of early rhythm control on the risk of dementia were consistent regardless of the characteristics of prior stroke, for example, recent stroke within 6-month from their enrollment, disabling stroke that required continuous rehabilitation therapy, and severe stroke causing intensive care unit admission.
Conclusion
Early rhythm control within 1 year after AF diagnosis might be beneficial to prevent dementia in patients with incident AF and a history of stroke. To prevent progression of further cognitive dysfunction, early rhythm control should be considered in these patients.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
There are limited data regarding the association between the burden of the left atrial low-voltage area (LVA) and the outcome of pulmonary vein isolation (PVI) alone in persistent atrial fibrillation (PeAF).
Purpose
The study aimed to investigate the impact of the burden of LVA on the patients with PeAF treated with PVI alone.
Methods
Using a retrospective cohort of PeAF patients who underwent PVI alone, both clinical and the left atrial voltage mapping data were reviewed. LVA was defined as an area of ≤0.5 mV (bipolar) when mapped during sinus rhythm and ≤0.2 mV during AF. The high burden of LVA was defined as a case when the LVA constitutes ≥10% of the total left atrial body area. The patients were categorized into either the high or low burden groups. The recurrence of any atrial tachyarrhythmia was followed up, and multivariable Cox's regression analysis was performed.
Results
A total of 50 and 25 patients were investigated for the low burden (LVA<10%) and high burden (LVA≥10%) groups, respectively. Compared to the low burden group, the high burden group had a significantly less male proportion (56.0% versus 78.0%), a higher CHA2DS2-VASc score (median 3 versus 2), more chronic kidney disease (16.0% versus 2.0%), and a higher burden of LVA (20±11% versus 5±3%). During the median follow-up of 9.5 (6.2–16.2)months, there were 30.0% and 48.0% ofrecurrences for the low and high burden groups, respectively. Compared to the low burden group, the high burden group was associated with higher risks of both early and late recurrences (HR [95% CI] =2.67 [1.15–6.18] and 2.08 [1.03–4.20], respectively) (Figure 1). The best cut-off of LVA to predict 2-year recurrence was 10.1% (Figure 2).
Conclusion
The high burden of LVA was significantly associated with an increased risk of recurrence among PeAF patients treated with PVI alone. Tailored ablation in addition to PVI would be needed to improve outcomes in patients with PeAF having a high burden of LVA.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Early rhythm control therapy and lifestyle modification have both been associated with a lower risk of stroke in patients with atrial fibrillation (AF). Although guidelines have emphasized integrated care for patients with AF to improve clinical outcomes, the synergistic impact of early rhythm control therapy and lifestyle modification on the risk of stroke is unclear.
Purpose
To evaluate the impact of the combination of early rhythm control therapy and lifestyle modification on the risk of stroke
Methods
Based on data from the Korean National Health Insurance Service database, we included patients with new-onset AF between January 2009 and December 2016. Based on questionnaires from health checks, patients with ≥2 healthy lifestyle behaviors among quitting smoking, abstaining from alcohol, and performing regular exercise were defined as “healthy lifestyle” group. Patients who received rhythm control therapy within 2-year after new-onset AF were defined as the early rhythm control group. With a two-by-two factorial design, patients were categorized into 4 groups as follows: (i) those without early rhythm control and healthy lifestyle (group 1); (ii) those with a healthy lifestyle but without early rhythm control (group 2); (iii) those with early rhythm control but without healthy lifestyle (group 3); and (iv) those with both early rhythm control and healthy lifestyle (group 4). The primary outcome was stroke.
Results
Among a total of 208,662 patients, 46,972, 110,479, 15,133, and 36,078 patients were included in group 1, 2, 3, and 4, respectively. For the early rhythm control group, the mean duration from AF diagnosis to rhythm control therapy was 27±76 days. During a median follow-up of 4.2 years, 9905 patients had an incident stroke (incidence rate, 10.6 per 100 person-years). After multivariable adjustment, compared to group 1, group 2 (healthy lifestyle only) and group 3 (early rhythm control only) were associated with a lower risk of stroke (HR and 95% CI: 0.769, 0.728–0.881, and 0.774, 0.703–0.852, respectively) (Figure 1). Group 4 with early rhythm control and a healthy lifestyle had the lowest risk of stroke among all groups (HR 0.575, 95% CI 0.536–0.617 compared to group 1) (Figure 1). After propensity score (PS) weighting for group 2 and 4, additional early rhythm control based on healthy lifestyle was associated with a lowered risk of stroke by 22% (Figure 2). After PS weighting between groups 3 and 4, additional lifestyle modification based on early rhythm control was associated with a lowered risk of stroke by 27% (Figure 2).
Conclusion
In this large-scale observational cohort study, early rhythm control therapy and healthy lifestyle behavior might reduce the risk of stroke in patients with new-onset AF, consistent with the results from recent randomized clinical trials. Furthermore, implementing both early rhythm control therapy and a healthy lifestyle could synergize stroke prevention in these populations.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
The concurrent use of proton pump inhibitor (PPI) in oral anticoagulant (OAC) treated patients may be associated with a lower risk of gastrointestinal bleeding (GIB), but evidence is still conflicting according to individual OACs.
Purpose
We conducted a meta-analysis to estimate the risk of GIB in patients with OAC and PPI co-therapy.
Methods
A systematic search of PubMed, EMBASE, and Cochrane was performed for studies reporting GIB risk in OAC and PPI co-therapy. Primary outcomes were total GIB and major GIB events. We calculated pooled estimates of GIB risk by a random-effect meta-analysis and reported as odds ratios (OR) and 95% CI. Stratified analyses according to the origin of GIB, ethnic groups, individual OACs, and the presence of underlying GIB risk factors were performed.
Results
A total of 10 studies (1 randomized controlled study and 9 observational studies) and 1,970,931 patients who received OAC were included. OAC and PPI co-therapy were associated with a lower risk of total GIB, and major GIB; OR (95% CI) was 0.67 (0.62–0.74) for total GIB and 0.68 (0.63–0.75) for major GIB, respectively. Among total GIB, only the risk of upper GIB was lower with OAC and PPI co-therapy (OR 0.67, 95% CI 0.64–0.70). No difference in the lower risk of primary GIB outcomes of PPI co-therapy was observed between Asians and non-Asians (p-for-difference, total GIB=0.695, major GIB=0.748, respectively) and among individual OACs except for edoxaban. The protective effect of PPI on total GIB was more significant in high-risk patients, defined as those with concurrent medication of antiplatelets or non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (OR 0.62, 95% CI 0.52–0.73) and presence of high bleeding risk factors such as previous GIB history, HAS-BLED score ≥3, or underlying gastrointestinal diseases. (OR 0.65, 95% CI 0.61–0.70).
Conclusion
In patients who receive OAC, the use of PPI co-therapy was associated with a lower risk of total GIB and major GIB irrespective of ethnic group and OAC type except for edoxaban. PPI co-therapy can be considered particularly in patients on concomitant NSAID and antiplatelet use or patients with high GIB risk factors.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Diabetes mellitus (DM) is known to increase the risk of mental disorders, which increases the health care burden in these patients. Also, DM is one of the risk factors leading to atrial fibrillation (AF), and the presence of concomitant AF and DM adds to the increased risks of stroke and death. It is uncertain whether mental disease is an independent risk factor of incident AF in patients with DM.
Purpose
To investigate whether diabetic patients with mental disease have an increased risk of AF.
Methods
Using the Korea National Health Insurance Service database, we enrolled 2,512,690 patients diagnosed with DM without AF between 2009 and 2021. Newly diagnosed AF was identified during the follow-up period. We compared the risk of AF between patients with mental disease and those without.
Results
Among the total population, 828,929 (32.99%; mean age 61.58±11.28; 56.71% female) patients were diagnosed with mental diseases (Figure 1). Anxiety (564,786 patients, 68.13%) was the most common mental disease, while depression was the second most common (313,773 patients, 37.85%). Diabetic patients with mental diseases had a higher percentage of women, hypertension, dyslipidemia, chronic kidney failure, congestive heart failure, obstructive sleep apnea, and thyroid disease. During a median 7.0 years (IQR 5.93–8.07) follow-up, 34,523 were diagnosed new-onset AF (4.66 per 1,000 person-year). In multivariate analysis, diabetic patients with mental disorders showed a higher risk of new-onset AF (HR 1.19; 95% CI 1.17–1.21; p-value <0.0001) (Figure 2). Among mental diseases, depression, insomnia, and anxiety were associated with increased risks of new-onset AF (HR 1.15; 95% CI 1.12–1.17; HR 1.15; 95% CI 1.13–1.18; and HR 1.19; 95% CI, 1.67–1.21; all p-value <0.0001, respectively), whereas bipolar disorder and schizophrenia showed non-statistically significant trends (due to small numbers). Subgroup analyses showed that younger age had significant interactions with depression, insomnia, and anxiety.
Conclusion
Mental diseases, especially depression, insomnia, and anxiety, showed an increased risk of AF in patients with DM. Awareness and prompt diagnosis and management of AF would be necessary for these high-risk populations at risk of incident AF.
