Abstract
BACKGROUND A growing body of evidence suggests that non-viral hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) might benefit less from immunotherapy. MATERIALS AND METHODS We carried out a retrospective analysis of prospectively collected data from consecutive patients with non-viral advanced HCC, treated with atezolizumab plus bevacizumab, lenvatinib, or sorafenib, in 36 centers in 4 countries (Italy, Japan, Republic of Korea, and UK). The primary endpoint was overall survival (OS) with atezolizumab plus bevacizumab versus lenvatinib. Secondary endpoints were progression-free survival (PFS) with atezolizumab plus bevacizumab versus lenvatinib, and OS and PFS with atezolizumab plus bevacizumab versus sorafenib. For the primary and secondary endpoints, we carried out the analysis on the whole population first, and then we divided the cohort into two groups: non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD)/non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) population and non-NAFLD/NASH population. RESULTS One hundred and ninety patients received atezolizumab plus bevacizumab, 569 patients received lenvatinib, and 210 patients received sorafenib. In the whole population, multivariate analysis showed that treatment with lenvatinib was associated with a longer OS [hazard ratio (HR) 0.65; 95% confidence interval (CI) 0.44-0.95; P = 0.0268] and PFS (HR 0.67; 95% CI 0.51-0.86; P = 0.002) compared to atezolizumab plus bevacizumab. In the NAFLD/NASH population, multivariate analysis confirmed that lenvatinib treatment was associated with a longer OS (HR 0.46; 95% CI 0.26-0.84; P = 0.0110) and PFS (HR 0.55; 95% CI 0.38-0.82; P = 0.031) compared to atezolizumab plus bevacizumab. In the subgroup of non-NAFLD/NASH patients, no difference in OS or PFS was observed between patients treated with lenvatinib and those treated with atezolizumab plus bevacizumab. All these results were confirmed following propensity score matching analysis. By comparing patients receiving atezolizumab plus bevacizumab versus sorafenib, no statistically significant difference in survival was observed. CONCLUSIONS The present analysis conducted on a large number of advanced non-viral HCC patients showed for the first time that treatment with lenvatinib is associated with a significant survival benefit compared to atezolizumab plus bevacizumab, in particular in patients with NAFLD/NASH-related HCC.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) treatment remains a big challenge in the field of oncology. The liver disease (viral or not viral) underlying HCC turned out to be crucial in determining the biologic behavior of the tumor, including its response to treatment. The aim of this analysis was to investigate the role of the etiology of the underlying liver disease in survival outcomes. PATIENTS AND METHODS We conducted a multicenter retrospective study on a large cohort of patients treated with lenvatinib as first-line therapy for advanced HCC from both Eastern and Western institutions. Univariate and multivariate analyses were performed. RESULTS Among the 1232 lenvatinib-treated HCC patients, 453 (36.8%) were hepatitis C virus positive, 268 hepatitis B virus positive (21.8%), 236 nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) correlate (19.2%) and 275 had other etiologies (22.3%). The median progression-free survival (mPFS) was 6.2 months [95% confidence interval (CI) 5.9-6.7 months] and the median overall survival (mOS) was 15.8 months (95% CI 14.9-17.2 months). In the univariate analysis for OS NASH-HCC was associated with longer mOS [22.2 versus 15.1 months; hazard ratio (HR) 0.69; 95% CI 0.56-0.85; P = 0.0006]. In the univariate analysis for PFS NASH-HCC was associated with longer mPFS (7.5 versus 6.5 months; HR 0.84; 95% CI 0.71-0.99; P = 0.0436). The multivariate analysis confirmed NASH-HCC (HR 0.64; 95% CI 0.48-0.86; P = 0.0028) as an independent prognostic factor for OS, along with albumin-bilirubin (ALBI) grade, extrahepatic spread, neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio, portal vein thrombosis, Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status and alpha-fetoprotein. An interaction test was performed between sorafenib and lenvatinib cohorts and the results highlighted the positive predictive role of NASH in favor of the lenvatinib arm (P = 0.0047). CONCLUSION NASH has been identified as an independent prognostic factor in a large cohort of patients with advanced HCC treated with lenvatinib, thereby suggesting the role of the etiology in the selection of patients for tyrosine kinase treatment. If validated, this result could provide new insights useful to improve the management of these patients.

Abstract
AIM To validate the utility of hepatic resection combined with complementary radiofrequency ablation (RFA) compared with resection alone for patients with multiple hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), and to compare these results with those of a previous report. MATERIALS AND METHODS A total of 78 HCC patients with multiple (≤5) tumours who were initially treated with hepatic resection only (Resection group) or with combined hepatic resection and RFA (Combination group) were included. Overall and disease-free survival were analysed. RESULTS There were 21 women and 57 men with a median age of 72.5 (64.3-76.8) years. Fifty-three patients were treated with resection alone and 25 received combination therapy. The 3-, 5-, and 7-year cumulative overall survival rates were 81.2%, 68.2%, and 57.1%, respectively, in the Resection group, and 81.3%, 59.6%, and 42.4%%, respectively, in the Combination group (hazard ratio [HR], 1.462; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.682-3.136; p=0.329). The 1-, 3-, and 5-year cumulative disease-free survival rates were 61.4%, 45.7%, and 39.8%, respectively, in the Resection group, and 53.1%, 18.6%, and 0%, respectively, in the Combination group (HR, 2.080; 95% CI, 1.157-3.737; p=0.014). The overall survival rate was not significantly different between the Resection and Combination groups in patients within the up-to-seven HCC criteria (n=56; HR, 2.101; 95% CI, 0.805-5.486; p=0.130) or those beyond these criteria (n=22; HR, 0.804; 95% CI, 0.197-3.286; p=0.761). CONCLUSIONS The combination of hepatic resection and RFA therapy may be an effective strategy for HCC patients with multiple tumours.

Abstract
BACKGROUND After the advent of new treatment options for advanced hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), the identification of prognostic factors is crucial for the selection of the most appropriate therapy for each patient. PATIENTS AND METHODS With the aim to fill this gap, we applied recursive partitioning analysis (RPA) to a cohort of 404 patients treated with lenvatinib. RESULTS The application of RPA resulted in a classification based on five variables that originated a new prognostic score, the lenvatinib prognostic index (LEP) index, identifying three groups: low risk [patients with prognostic nutritional index (PNI) >43.3 and previous trans-arterial chemoembolization (TACE)]; medium risk [patients with PNI >43.3 but without previous TACE and patients with PNI <43.3, albumin-bilirubin (ALBI) grade 1 and Barcelona Clinic Liver Cancer stage B (BCLC-B)]; high risk [patients with PNI <43.3 and ALBI grade 2 and patients with PNI <43.3, albumin-bilirubin (ALBI) grade 1 and Barcelona Clinic Liver Cancer stage C (BCLC-C)]. Median overall survival was 29.8 months [95% confidence interval (CI) 22.8-29.8 months] in low risk patients (n = 128), 17.0 months (95% CI 15.0-24.0 months) in medium risk (n = 162) and 8.9 months (95% CI 8.0-10.7 months) in high risk (n = 114); low risk hazard ratio (HR) 1 (reference group), medium risk HR 1.95 (95% CI 1.38-2.74), high risk HR 4.84 (95% CI 3.16-7.43); P < 0.0001. The LEP index was validated in a cohort of 127 Italian patients treated with lenvatinib. While the same classification did not show a prognostic value in a cohort of 311 patients treated with sorafenib, we also show a possible predictive role in favor of lenvatinib in the low risk group. CONCLUSIONS LEP index is a promising, easy-to-use tool that may be used to stratify patients undergoing systemic treatment of advanced HCC.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Impact of ischemic risk (IR) on long term outcomes in patients at high bleeding risk (HBR) after everolimus-eluting stent (EES) implantation remains unclear.
Purpose
We aimed to evaluate long term bleeding and ischemic events in patient with HBR or IR after EES implantation.
Methods
The study population comprised 1219 patients treated with EES without in-hospital events between 2010 and 2011. The follow-up period was 2996±433 days. HBR was defined as Academic research consortium. IR defined as high-risk features of stent-driven recurrent ischemic events in Europe society of cardiology guidelines in 2019: prior stent thrombosis on adequate antiplatelet therapy, diffuse multivessel disease especially in diabetic patients, creatinine clearance <60 ml/min, at least three stents implanted, bifurcation two stents implanted, total stent length >60 mm, and treatment of a chronic total occlusion. Major bleeding (MB) was defined as defined as the occurrence of a Bleeding Academic Research Consortium (BARC) type 3 or 5 bleeding event. Primary ischemic events included myocardial infarction, definite stent thrombosis, and cardiac death. The Kaplan-Meier method was used for time-to-event analyses.
Results
Of the 1219 patients, 317 (26.0%) patients had no risk, 114 (9.4%) patients had only HBR, 288 (23.6%) patients had only IR, and 500 (41.0%) patients had both risks. The 81.4% of HBR patients had IR. The figure of Kaplan-Meier showed MB and CE for 7–8 years. Both risk groups had higher bleeding risk and Ischemic events (log rank p=0.0039, 0.0001).
Conclusion
HBR patients with EES had a high incidence of IR. Patients who had both HBR and IR are especially at risk for both ischemic events and bleeding compared to those who had no or only one risk.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
It is yet to be known whether mechanisms underlying restenosis in newer-generation durable-polymer (DP) and biodegradable-polymer (BP) drug-eluting stents (DES) are different.
Purpose
This study aims to assess the incidences and predictors of early restenosis and late catch-up phenomenon after newer-generation durable-polymer (DP) and biodegradable-polymer (BP) DES.
Methods
Between 2010 and 2017, 13858 lesions in 6350 patients were treated with DES (4393 BP-DES, 9465 DP-DES). The early-term (within 1 year) and late-term (from 1 to 2 years) follow-up angiographies were scheduled. Late catch-up phenomenon was defined as in-stent restenosis (ISR) in lesions that evaded ISR within 1 year after stent implantation. ISR was defined as angiographic restenosis of more than 50%.
Results
The mean patient age was 71 years, and 76.7% were male. Early-term angiographies were performed in 10955 lesions (79.0%). Of those without early-term ISR, late-term angiographies were performed in 7771 lesions (56.1%). The incidences of mid-term restenosis and late catch-up phenomenon were 6.6% and 3.9%, respectively.
In the multivariate regression analyses, history of diabetes, hemodialysis and previous PCI were independent predictors of both early restenosis and late catch-up phenomenon. Also, some lesion characteristics such as chronic total occlusion, right coronary artery ostial lesion, small vessel (defined as reference diameter <2.5mm), long lesion (defined as lesion length >30mm) and treatment of ISR lesion were independent predictors of both early restenosis and late catch-up phenomenon.
Bifurcation lesion and heavily calcified lesion treated with rotablator were independent risk of early restenosis. Bypass graft lesion was an independent predictor of late catch-up phenomenon.
Early restenosis was observed less frequently in DP-DES than in BP-DES (6.3% versus 7.4%, P=0.012). On the contrary, late catch-up phenomenon was observed more frequently in DP-DES than in BP-DES (4.3% versus 2.9%, P=0.026).
Conclusions
Some lesion characteristics were independent predictors of early restenosis and late catch-up phenomenon after newer-generation DES implantation. The deployment of BP-DES resulted in more early restenosis and less late catch-up phenomenon compared to that of DP-DES.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Coronary artery embolism (CE) is one of the important causes of acute coronary syndrome (ACS). The feature of CE is that angiographic evidence of coronary artery embolism and thrombosis without atherosclerotic components. However, the prevalence of CE remains unknown because of the diffifulty to diagnose in the acute settings. A recent retrospective analysis suggested that up to 3% of ACS cases may result from CE.
Purpose
The aim of this study was to elucidate the prevalence, clinical features and long-term outcomes including all-cause and cardiac death.
Methods
We analysed the consecutive 2695 patients with first AMI performed coronary intervention between January 2004 and July 2017. CE was diagnosed by clinical histories and angiographic findings. We retrospectively evaluated the clinical and lesion characteristics and outcomes including all-cause and cardiac death.
Results
The prevalence of CE was 2.0% (n=55; CE group and n=2640; non-CE group), including 8 (15%) patients with multivessel CE. The CE group had higher average age (70.8±14.9 vs. 68.4±12.6, p<0.01), prevalence of female (54% vs. 27%, p<0.01), lower prevalence of smoking (34% vs. 62%, p<0.01). The common causes with CE were atrial fibrillation (47%), and malignant tumor (9%), and cardiomyopathy (5%), and patent foramen ovale (4%). Only 20% of patients with CE were treated with anti-coagulant therapy. The rate of distal infarction site (defined as #4, #8, #14–15) was significantly higher in CE group than non-CE group (54.0% vs. 4.9%, p<0.01). During median follow-up of 53.6 [32.6–77.3] months, CE and thromboembolism recurred in 5 patients (CE: 1 patient, stroke 4 patients). The 4-year incidence of all-cause death was significantly higher in the CE group, but cardiac death was not significantly different between the groups (28.8% vs. 14.8%, p=0.03; 12.8% vs. 5.1%, p=0.11).
Conclusion
Compared with non-CE group, the prevalence of distal infarction site was significantly higher in the CE group, and the incidence of cardiac death is not significantly different.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Recently, the Academic Research Consortium for High Bleeding Risk (ARC-HBR) criteria has been suggested as the standard definition of HBR.
Purpose
We aimed to investigate the risk stratification based on ARC-HBR Criteria for long-term bleeding event after everolimus-eluting stent implantation
Methods
The study population comprised 1193 patients treated with EES without in-hospital event between 2010 and 2011. Individual ARC-HBR criteria was retrospectively assessed. Major bleeding were defined as the occurrence of a Bleeding Academic Research Consortium type 3 or 5 bleeding event. The mean follow-up period was 2996±433 days.
Results
There were 656 patients (55.0%) in HBR-groups. Cumulative incidence of major bleeding was significantly higher in HBR-group (8.1% vs 3.4% at 4 year, and 16.2% vs 5.7% at 8 year, P<0.001). Cumulative rate of major bleeding tend to be higher as the number of ARC-HBR criteria increased (≥2 Majors: 24.3%, 1 Major: 17.0%, ≥2 Minors:11.7%, and Non-HBR: 5.7%, P<0.001).
Conclusion
ARC-HBR criteria successfully stratified the long-term bleeding risk after drug-eluting stent implantation in real-world practice.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
The second generation drug-eluting stent (G2-DES) has been reported as superior to the first generation drug-eluting stent (G1-DES) in mid-term outcomes. However, the late-term outcomes between G1-DES and G2-DES in two-stenting for coronary bifurcation lesions are not well studied.
Purpose
To evaluate the late catch-up phenomenon and late-term target lesion revascularization (TLR) of two-stenting for coronary bifurcation lesions between G1-DES and G2-DES.
Methods
This study included 1133 lesions in 1089 patients undergoing drug eluting stent implantation with two stenting from 2004 to 2016. These consisted of 496 G1-DES implanted lesions and 637 G2-DES implanted lesions. Late-term follow-up angiography was performed without in-stent restenosis (ISR) and TLR at mid-term follow-up in 582 lesions (242 G1-DES lesions and 340 G2-DES lesions). ISR was defined as more than 50% restenosis. Late catch-up phenomenon was defined as ISR without ISR within 1 year following index stent implantation. Late-term TLR was defined as from 1 to 5 year TLR. Bifurcation lesions were defined as the main branch ranging from the proximal stem to the distal main branch with boundaries defined by 5 mm proximal and distal to the stent-implanted area, and the side branch ranging from the bifurcation carina to the distal side branch with boundaries defined by the carina and 5 mm distal to the stent-implanted area.
Results
The median follow-up duration was 5.1 years (the first and third quarters, 3.2 and 7.1 years). The late-catch up phenomenon rate significantly differed between the G1-DES and G2-DES groups (16.9% vs 8.4%, p=0.001). A significant difference in late catch-up between the same two groups was also observed in bifurcation lesions of the main branch (5.0% vs 0.6%, p=0.001) and side branch (10.3% vs 5.6%, p=0.033), respectively. The 5-year cumulative rates also differed between the two groups in TLR (8.2% vs 3.7% log-rank p=0.001), and late-term TLR (7.0% vs 3.6% log-rank p=0.001).
Conclusion
Two-stenting using G2-DES, compared with G1-DES, significantly reduced late-term restenosis and TLR. The restenosis rate in bifurcation area may be associated with differences between two groups in late-term outcome.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
It was reported that tissue morphology of in-stent restenosis (ISR) lesions assessed with optical coherence tomography (OCT) had an effect on midterm results including ISR and target lesion revascularization (TLR) rates after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). However, little was known about the association between tissue morphology assessed with OCT and late-term results.
Methods
We performed PCI treated with paclitaxel coated balloon (PCB) or drug-eluting stent (DES) for 452 ISR lesions (260 lesions with fibrous plaque and 192 lesions with lipid-laden plaque) using OCT between May 2008 and July 2016. Six- to eight-month (midterm) angiographic follow-up was performed on 422 of the 452 ISR lesions (follow-up rate: 93.4%). Furthermore, eighteen- to twenty-month (late-term) angiographic follow-up was performed on 337 of the 361 ISR lesions (follow-up rate: 93.4%) which were free from midterm TLR. We examined the association between tissue morphology, midterm-results and late-term results including ISR and TLR rates. Fibrous plaque was defined as homogeneous, signal-rich regions with low attenuation. Lipid-laden plaque was defined as diffuse border, signal poor regions with high attenuation.
Results
The patients were 353 men and 69 women, and the mean age was 68.8±9.6 years. PCI were performed with PCB in 285 lesions (PCB group) and DES in 137 lesions (DES group). The figure shows the angiographic midterm results of the 422 lesions and late-term results of the 337 lesions with respect to each tissue morphology and each PCI device. There was no difference in ISR and TLR rates of lesions with both fibrous and lipid-laden plaque at midterm between the two groups. ISR and TLR rates of lesions with lipid-laden plaque at late-term were significantly higher in the PCB group than in the DES group, while there was no difference in ISR and TLR rates of lesions with fibrous plaque at late-term between two groups.
Figure 1
Conclusion
Tissue morphology of ISR lesions might have an impact on outcomes after PCI. Morphological assessment of ISR tissue using OCT might suggest favorable types of PCI for ISR lesions.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Whether preparation techniques during percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) are associated with restenosis in severely calcified lesions is not well studied.
Purpose
We aimed to clarify the effects of the preparation techniques during PCI on mid-term outcomes of severely calcified lesions.
Methods
We examined 2688 consecutive severely calcified lesions (1854 patients) treated by PCI between January 2008 and December 2017, and identified 1789 lesions (66.6%) undergoing routine follow-up angiography within one year postprocedure. The angiographic outcome measure was defined as in-stent restenosis (ISR); ISR was defined as stenosis of ≥50%. We divided the 1789 lesions into two groups on the basis of the presence or absence of ISR: ISR and non-ISR groups.
Result
ISR was detected in 337 of the 1789 lesions (18.8%). The ISR group, in comparison with the non-ISR group, had more chronic total occlusion lesions (17.9% vs. 12%, p<0.01), less bifurcation lesions (41.9% vs. 48.5%, p=0.03), less reference diameter (2.85±0.64 mm2 vs. 2.96±0.54 mm2, p<0.01), lower use rate of scoring or cutting balloon (13.9% vs. 23.1%, p<0.01), and lower postprocedural percent stenosis (25.9±20.7% vs. 16.9±9.3%, p<0.01). After adjusting chronic total occlusion lesions, target lesions, and other factors in multiple logistic regression models, the use of scoring or cutting balloon was independently associated with ISR (hazard ratio, 0.62; 95% confidence interval, 0.44 to 0.89; p<0.01).
Conclusion
Using scoring or cutting balloon is associated with good midterm results of severely calcified lesions treated by PCI.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
The incidence of aortic dissection has been reported to be lower in women; however, women have a poor prognosis. Also, the incidence of false lumen thrombosis has been reported to be different between Europe, the United States, and Japan. We aimed to determine gender differences in long-term prognosis of acute type B aortic dissection.
Methods
We retrospectively reviewed 220 consecutive patients hospitalized for acute type B aortic dissection between January 2012 to December 2017. After exclusion criteria of unknown onset time, >14 days after the onset, in-hospital death, and aortic events requiring additional treatment during hospitalization were applied, 186 patients were analyzed by gender: 133 men and 53 women. The patient background, treatment method, prognosis, and outcome were compared and examined.
Results
Both the proportions of smoking history and patients receiving oxygen therapy during hospitalization were significantly higher in men (59% vs. 22%, p<0.01; 91% vs. 72%, p<0.01, respectively), whereas that of classical aortic dissection was similar between men and women (41% vs. 32%, p=0.36). The avoidance rate of a composite of all deaths and aortic events 2 years after discharge was similar (hazard ratio, 0.99; 95% confidence interval, 0.52 to 1.59; p=0.966).(Picture1)
Picture 1
Conclusion
The long-term prognosis of acute type B aortic dissection treated by medical therapy during hospitalization was equivalent in men and women despite gender differences in several background factors.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Statin prevents occurrence and recurrence of atherosclerotic events. With regard to venous thromboembolism (VTE), a randomized controlled trial suggested that statin reduced occurrence of VTE, whereas its usefulness as secondary prevention of VTE remains to be elucidated.
Purpose
This study aimed to assess the association between statin prescription, recurrent VTE and bleeding events in patients with VTE.
Methods
The COMMAND VTE Registry is a multicentre registry enrolling consecutive 3027 patients with acute symptomatic VTE among 29 centres in Japan. We divided the cohort into the patients who were prescribed statin (N=437) and those not (N=2590), and compared the two groups. We assessed hazard ratios (HRs) of those with statin relative to those without for long-term clinical outcomes (recurrent symptomatic VTE and International Society of Thrombosis and Hemostasis [ISTH] major bleeding). Because the durations of anticoagulation therapy were widely different between the two groups, we constructed Cox's proportional hazard model incorporating status of anticoagulation during the follow-up period as a time-varying covariate. Also, because the incidences of death were strikingly different between the two groups due to the difference in the prevalence of active cancer, we used Fine-Gray's subdistribution hazard model in the presence of competing risks. We incorporated clinically relevant factors into these two models as covariates (10 factors for recurrent VTE and 11 for major bleeding).
Results
The statin group was significantly older than the non-statin group (statin 71.2±11.8 vs. non-statin 66.5±15.8, P<0.001). The prevalence of active cancer in the statin group was less than one-half of that in the non-statin group (12% vs. 25%, P<0.001), and the cumulative 3-year incidence of death was significantly lower in the statin group than in the non-statin group (12.8% vs. 26.1%, log-rank P<0.001). The table shows the adjusted HRs of the statin group relative to the non-statin group. The HRs of the statin group relative to non-statin group for recurrent VTE were significantly low, but those for major bleeding were insignificant.
Adjusted hazard ratios Outcome measures Model 1 P value Model 2 P value Adjusted HR [95% CI] Adjusted HR [95% CI] Recurrent VTE 0.59 [0.36–0.98] 0.042 0.53 [0.32–0.89] 0.02 Major bleeding 0.87 [0.60–1.24] 0.43 0.997 [0.69–1.43] 0.99 Model 1 derived from Cox's model with time-varying covariate of anticoagulation status. Model 2 derived from Fine-Gray's model.
Study flowchart
Conclusions
Prescription of satin was associated with significantly low risks for recurrent VTE, whereas that was not for major bleeding events. Statin could be a potential treatment option for secondary prevention of VTE.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Successful recanalisation of percutaneous coronary intervention for chronic total occlusion lesions has been associated with improved survival.
Purpose
This study aimed to assess the impact of successful percutaneous coronary intervention for chronic total occlusion lesions on the long-term outcome of patients with impaired and preserved left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF).
Methods
The study sample consisted of 842 consecutive patients (928 chronic total occlusion lesions) undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention at our institution between October 2005 and December 2009. We divided them into 3 groups by the degree of LVEF: less than 40% (severely reduced LVEF, n=140), 40% to 59% (moderately reduced LVEF, n=470), and 60% and above (normal LVEF, n=232). We evaluated mortality during the 10-year follow-up period the basis of procedural success and failure.
Results
The overall procedural success rate was 89.1%. Median follow-up duration was 7.9 years. The 10-year cumulative incidences of cardiac death in each degree of LVEF are shown in the Figure.
Conclusions
Successful recanalisation for chronic total occlusion lesions in patients with impaired LVEF may be associated with reduced cardiac mortality.

Abstract
Abstract
Background/Introduction
Oral anticoagulants are widely used for the treatment and second prevention of venous thromboembolism (VTE) and stroke prevention in atrial fibrillation (AF). VTE and AF are common diseases and these sometimes might coexist. However, there are few reports about the relationship between VTE and AF.
Purpose
We sought to evaluate the clinical characteristics and outcomes in VTE patients with AF.
Methods
The COMMAND VTE Registry is a multicenter registry enrolling consecutive 3027 patients with acute symptomatic VTE objectively confirmed by imaging examination or by autopsy among 29 centers in Japan between January 2010 and August 2014. The current study population consisted of 129 patients with AF (AF group) and 2898 patients without AF (non-AF group). We compared the clinical characteristics, management strategies and long-term outcomes between the 2 groups.
Results
The AF group was older (mean age: 75.3 vs. 66.8 years, P<0.001), and more often had co-morbidities such as hypertension (54.3% vs. 37.7%, P<0.001), diabetes mellitus (20.2% vs. 12.4%, P=0.01), chronic kidney disease (28.7% vs. 18.5%, P=0.004), heart failure (28.7% vs. 18.5%, P=0.004), history of stroke (20.2% vs. 8.4%, P<0.001), and history of major bleeding (12.4% vs. 7.4%, P=0.04) compared with the non-AF group, whereas there were no significant differences in the proportions of active cancer at diagnosis (18.6% vs. 23.2%, P=0.23) and pulmonary embolism at presentation (64.3% vs. 56.3%, P=0.07). The proportion of anticoagulation therapy beyond acute phase was not significantly different (94% vs. 93%, P=0.60), while the cumulative discontinuation rates of anticoagulation therapy was significantly lower in the AF group (26.9% vs. 43.4% at 3 years, Log-rank P=0.03). The cumulative 5-year incidences of recurrent VTE and major bleeding were not significantly different (Recurrent VTE: 7.6% vs. 10.6%, Log-rank P=0.89; Major bleeding: 18.6% vs. 11.8%, Log-rank P=0.07). After adjusting for potential confounders, the risks of the AF group relative to the non-AF group for recurrent VTE and major bleeding remained insignificant (HR 1.19, 95% CI 0.54–2.28, P=0.64; HR 1.28, 95% CI 0.73–2.06, P=0.37). The cumulative 5-year incidence of all-cause death was significantly higher in the AF-group (49.1% vs. 28.6%, Log-rank P<0.001). After adjusting for potential confounders, the risks of the AF group relative to the non-AF group for all-cause death remained significant (HR 1.63, 95% CI 1.23–2.15, P<0.001). The proportion of deaths due to cancer was lower in the AF group (30% vs. 55%, P<0.001), while the proportion of cardiac deaths was higher in the AF group (16.1% vs. 4.0%, P<0.001).
The outcomes of VTE patients with AF
Conclusions
The risks for recurrent VTE between patients with AF and those without AF were not significantly different, although patients with AF received longer-term anticoagulation therapy, whereas the risks for major bleeding tended to be higher in patients with AF.

Abstract
We study the contact mechanics between 3 different tire tread compounds and a smooth glass surface in water. We study both adhesion and sliding friction at low-sliding speeds. For 2 of the compounds the rubber-glass contact in water is hydrophobic and we observe adhesion, and slip-stick sliding friction dynamics. For one compound the contact is hydrophilic, resulting in vanishing adhesion, and steady-state (or smooth) sliding dynamics. We also show the importance of dynamical scrape, both on the macroscopic level and at the asperity level, which reduces the water film thickness between the solids during slip. The experiments show that the fluid is removed much faster from the rubber-glass asperity contact regions for a hydrophobic contact than for a hydrophilic contact. We also study friction on sandblasted glass in water. In this case all the compounds behave similarly and we conclude that no dewetting occur in the asperity contact regions. We propose that this is due to the increased surface roughness which reduces the rubber-glass binding energy.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Whether direct-acting anti-viral therapy can reduce liver fibrosis and steatosis in patients with chronic hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection is unclear. AIMS To evaluate changes in liver stiffness and steatosis in patients with HCV who received direct-acting anti-viral therapy and achieved sustained virological response (SVR). METHODS A total of 198 patients infected with HCV genotype 1 or 2 who achieved SVR after direct-acting anti-viral therapy were analysed. Liver stiffness as evaluated by magnetic resonance elastography, steatosis as evaluated by magnetic resonance imaging-determined proton density fat fraction (PDFF), insulin resistance, and laboratory data were assessed before treatment (baseline) and at 24 weeks after the end of treatment (SVR24). RESULTS Alanine aminotransferase and homeostatic model assessment-insulin resistance levels decreased significantly from baseline to SVR24. Conversely, platelet count, which is inversely associated with liver fibrosis, increased significantly from baseline to SVR24. In patients with high triglyceride levels (≥150 mg/dL), triglyceride levels significantly decreased from baseline to SVR24 (P = 0.004). The median (interquartile range) liver stiffness values at baseline and SVR24 were 3.10 (2.70-4.18) kPa and 2.80 (2.40-3.77) kPa respectively (P < 0.001). The PDFF values at baseline and SVR 24 were 2.4 (1.7-3.4)% and 1.9 (1.3-2.8)% respectively (P < 0.001). In addition, 68% (19/28) of patients with fatty liver at baseline (PDFF ≥5.2%; n = 28) no longer had fatty liver (PDFF <5.2%) at SVR24. CONCLUSION Viral eradication reduces both liver stiffness and steatosis in patients with chronic HCV who received direct-acting anti-viral therapy (UMIN000017020).

Abstract
We compared the background characteristics of patients with chronic hepatitis C who achieved eradication of hepatitis C virus (HCV), that is sustained virologic response (SVR), with interferon (IFN)-based versus IFN-free antiviral therapy in Japan. In addition, we used a previously reported risk assessment model to compare the incidence of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) after SVR by treatment type. Pretreatment characteristics of 1533 patients who achieved SVR with IFN-based therapy and 1086 patients with IFN-free therapy from five institutions across Japan were compared. The risk of HCC after SVR was assessed based on pretreatment characteristics, and the incidence of HCC after SVR was estimated in both groups. Age and serum alpha-fetoprotein levels were higher, platelet count was lower, and liver fibrosis was more advanced in patients who achieved SVR with IFN-free therapy compared with IFN-based therapy. The incidence of HCC after SVR in the IFN-free group was estimated to be more than twofold higher than in the IFN-based therapy group (7.29% vs. 3.09%, and 6.23% vs. 3.01% when excluding patients who have underwent curative treatment for HCC). There are large differences in pretreatment characteristics between patients who achieved SVR with IFN-based and IFN-free therapies in Japan, which are associated with differential risk of HCC after SVR. These differences can influence the incidence of HCC after SVR and should be taken into consideration when comparing IFN-based and IFN-free therapies in terms of hepatocarcinogenesis suppression with HCV eradication.

The Ezo red fox (Vulpes vulpes schrencki), a subspecies endemic to Hokkaido island, Japan, is a known host species for the tapeworm Echinococcus multilocularis. To develop tools for molecular ecological studies, we isolated 28 microsatellite regions from the genome of Ezo red fox, and developed 18 polymorphic microsatellite markers. These markers were characterized using 7 individuals and 22 fecal samples of the Ezo red fox. The number of alleles for these markers ranged from 1 to 7, and the observed heterozygosity, estimated on the basis of the genotypes of 7 individuals, ranged from 0.29 to 1.00. All markers, except DvNok5, were in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium (P > 0.05), and no linkage disequilibrium was detected among these loci, except between DvNok14 and DvNok28 (P = 0.01). Moreover, six microsatellite loci were successfully genotyped using feces-derived DNA from the Ezo red fox. The markers developed in our study might serve as a useful tool for molecular ecological studies of the Ezo red fox.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The emergence of multidrug-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii associated with hospital-acquired infections has been increasingly reported worldwide. 16S rRNA methylase producing Gram-negative bacteria are highly resistant to all clinically important aminoglycosides. We analyzed A. baumannii clinical isolates resistant to aminoglycosides from hospitalized patients. The objective of this study was to investigate the emergence of armA in A.baumannii species associated with nosocomial infection in a university hospital in Nepal. METHODS This was a cross-sectional study conducted at the department of Clinical Microbiology, Tribhuvan University Teaching Hospital (TUTH), from December 2013 to December 2014. A total of 246 Acinetobacter species were isolated from different patients were screened for MDR A. baumannii. Identification at the species level was confirmed by 16S rRNA sequencing. Drug susceptibility testing was performed by Kirby- Bauer disc diffusion method and minimum inhibitory concentrations (MICs) were determined using the guidelines of the Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute (CLSI). Screening for 16S rRNA methylase-production was done for the isolates resistant to gentamicin and amikacin. Detection of 16S rRNA methylase gene was done by PCR. RESULTS All 122 multidrug-resistant A. baumanniiisolates were resistant to majority of the antibiotics used except polymyxin and tigecycline. Ninty-six MDR A. baumannii isolates had MICs of > 512 mg/L to amikacin and arbekacin indicating their high resistance to aminoglycosides.Of the 96 pan-aminoglycoside resistant isolates, 75 isolates had 16SrRNAmethylasewith all isolates harboring armA gene. CONCLUSIONS This is the first report describing multidrug-resistant A. baumannii strains harboring armA from hospitalized patients in Nepal. A methylase gene (armA), conferring high level of resistance to aminoglycosides, was detected in majority of our isolates.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Long-term graft survival of partial pancreas auto-transplantation after total pancreatectomy has not been clarified. The clinical implications of repeat completion pancreatectomy for locally recurrent pancreatic carcinoma in the remnant pancreas after initial pancreatectomy also have not been clarified. METHODS We have previously reported a 61-year-old woman presenting with re-sectable carcinoma of the remnant pancreas at 3 years after undergoing a pylorus-preserving pancreaticoduodenectomy for invasive ductal carcinoma of the pancreas head. We also performed distal pancreas auto-transplantation with the use of a part of the resected pancreas to preserve endocrine function. RESULTS The patient was discharged at 20 days after surgery without any complications. She had been followed regularly in our outpatient clinic. She had been treated with S-1 as adjuvant chemotherapy; 72 months after the completion total pancreatectomy with distal partial pancreas auto-transplantation, the patient was alive without any evidence of the pancreatic carcinoma recurrence. The pancreas graft was still functioning with a blood glucose level of 112 mg/dL, HbA1C of 6.7%, and serum C-peptide of 1.2 ng/mL; and urinary C-peptide was 11.6 μg/d. CONCLUSIONS Our patient demonstrated that repeated pancreatectomies can provide a chance for survival after a locally recurrent pancreatic carcinoma if the disease is limited to the remnant pancreas. An additional partial pancreas auto-transplantation was successfully performed to preserve endocrine function. However, the indications for pancreas auto-transplantation should be decided carefully in the context of pancreatic carcinoma recurrence.

Abstract
The FIB-4 index is a simple formula using age, aspartate aminotransferase, alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and platelet count to evaluate liver fibrosis. We investigated the ability of the FIB-4 index for hepatocarcinogenesis in hepatitis C virus (HCV) carriers with normal ALT levels. A total of 516 patients with ALT levels persistently at or below 40 IU/L during an observation period of over 3 years were included. Factors associated with the development of HCC were determined. Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) developed in 60 of 516 patients (11.6%). The incidence rate of HCC at 5 and 10 years was 2.6% and 17.6%, respectively. When patients were categorized according to the FIB-4 index as ≤ 2.0 (n = 226), >2.0 and ≤ 4.0 (n = 169), and > 4.0 (n = 121), the cumulative incidence of HCC at 5 years was 0.5%, 1.3% and 8.0%, respectively, and 2.8%, 25.6% and 37.1% at 10 years, respectively. Patients with FIB-4 index >4.0 were at the highest risk (P < 0.001). Factors that were significantly associated with HCC in the multivariate analysis were FIB-4 index >2.0 (hazard ratio (HR), 7.690), FIB-4 index >4.0 (HR, 8.991), α-fetoprotein (AFP) >5 ng/mL (HR, 2.742), AFP >10 ng/mL (HR, 4.915) and total bilirubin >1.2 mg/dL (HR, 2.142). A scoring system for hepatocarcinogenesis that combines the FIB-4 index and AFP predicted patient outcomes with excellent discriminative ability. The FIB-4 index is strongly associated with the risk of HCC in HCV carriers with normal ALT levels.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION The increasing reports on extended-spectrum-beta-lactamase and metallo-beta-lactamase producing Escherichia coli have addressed a potential threat to global health since it is found to be highly resistance to most of the currently available antibiotics including carbapenems. The present study was aimed to determine the antibiogram of extended-spectrum-beta-lactamase and metallo-beta-lactamase producing MDR E. coli isolates from various clinical samples. METHODS This was a cross-sectional study conducted over a period of seven months from December 2013 to July 2014 at bacteriology laboratory of Tribhuvan University Teaching Hospital. A total of 250 clinical specimens (urine, pus, sputum, blood, body fluid, bile, tissue and central venous pressure line tip) were processed from inpatients, with multidrug-resistant Escherichia coli infections. Standard microbiological techniques were used for isolation and identification of the isolates. The presence of extended-spectrum-beta-lactamase was detected by phenotypic confirmatory test recommended by Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute and imipenem (IMP) /EDTA combined disc method was performed to detect metallo-beta-lactamase mediated resistance mechanism. RESULTS We found high level of beta lactamase mediated resistance mechanism as part of multidrug resistance. Among 250 MDR isolates, 60% isolates were extended-spectrum-beta-lactamase producers and 17.2% isolates were metallo-beta-lactamase producers. Co-existence of extended-spectrum-beta-lactamase and metallo-beta-lactamase identified in 6.8% isolates. CONCLUSIONS Beta-lactamase mediated resistance mechanisms are accounting very high in the multidrug resistant isolates of E. coli. Therefore, early detection of beta lactamase mediated resistant strains and their current antibiotic susceptibility pattern is necessary to avoid treatment failure and prevent the spread of MDR.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The Japanese 'BALAD' model offers the first objective, biomarker-based, tool for assessment of prognosis in hepatocellular carcinoma, but relies on dichotomisation of the constituent data, has not been externally validated, and cannot be applied to the individual patients. METHODS In this Japanese/UK collaboration, we replicated the original BALAD model on a UK cohort and then built a new model, BALAD-2, on the original raw Japanese data using variables in their continuous form. Regression analyses using flexible parametric models with fractional polynomials enabled fitting of appropriate baseline hazard functions and functional form of covariates. The resulting models were validated in the respective cohorts to measure the predictive performance. RESULTS The key prognostic features were confirmed to be Bilirubin and Albumin together with the serological cancer biomarkers, AFP-L3, AFP, and DCP. With appropriate recalibration, the model offered clinically relevant discrimination of prognosis in both the Japanese and UK data sets and accurately predicted patient-level survival. CONCLUSIONS The original BALAD model has been validated in an international setting. The refined BALAD-2 model permits estimation of patient-level survival in UK and Japanese cohorts.
