Abstract
Viral proteases, the key enzymes that regulate viral replication and assembly, are promising targets for antiviral drug discovery. Herpesvirus proteases are enzymes with no crystallographically confirmed noncovalent active-site binders, owing to their shallow and polar substrate-binding pockets. Here, we applied our previously reported "Peptide-to-Small Molecule" strategy to generate novel inhibitors of β-herpesvirus proteases. Rapid selection with a display technology was used to identify macrocyclic peptide 1 bound to the active site of human cytomegalovirus protease (HCMVPro) with high affinity, and pharmacophore queries were defined based on the results of subsequent intermolecular interaction analyses. Membrane-permeable small molecule 19, designed de novo according to this hypothesis, exhibited enzyme inhibitory activity (IC50 = 10-6 to 10-7 M) against β-herpesvirus proteases, and the design concept was proved by X-ray cocrystal analysis.

Abstract
PURPOSE/OBJECTIVE(S) Fractionated stereotactic radiotherapy (SRT) has been applied to large brain metastases to reduce the risk of radiation necrosis. For fractionated SRT, potential of interfractional tumor changes during the treatment period, such as tumor size, shape, and geometry, must be considered to improve the tumor local control. Our center performs adaptive re-planning for large brain metastases based on repeat MRI verification with a contrast agent in the middle of the treatment period. Purpose of this study is to evaluate the dosimetric impact of the changes in tumor size, shape, and geometry on the doses to the targets and normal brain in patients with brain metastases undergoing fractionated SRT. MATERIALS/METHODS Fifteen solitary large intracranial metastatic lesions treated with fractionated SRT were investigated. Standardized planning MRI (MRI-1) and repeat verification MRI (MRI-2) were performed during the middle of the irradiation period. The GTV on the MRI-1 and MRI-2 scans was contoured by the same oncologist. The PTV was created by adding an isotropic margin of 1 mm from the GTV in all directions. Volumetric modulated arc therapy (VMAT) with beam energies of 6 MV (flattening filter-free mode) was used and plans were normalized such that PTV D95% or D98% was equal to the prescribed dose. Beam configuration and intensity on the initial VMAT plan were used to evaluate the dose to the tumor and the normal brain on MRI-2. We evaluated the impact of D98% on the GTV using the plans on the MRI-1 and MRI-2 scans. For the normal brain, the V90%, V80%, and V50% were investigated. RESULTS The median GTV changed from 9.8 cc (range of 3.2-33.0 cc) to 9.7 cc (range of 2.8-36.5 cc) (p = 0.482). Three and four tumors exhibited volume shrinkage and enlargement changes of >10%. Five tumors exhibited volume shrinkage and enlargement changes of <10%. Three tumors showed no volume changes. Of the 15 large brain metastases, 12 tumors required treatment plan modification. The dosimetric parameters of the GTV, PTV, and normal brain did not significantly differ between the MRI-1 and MRI-2 scans. Regarding the tumor dose, the D98% to the GTV increased in patients with tumor shrinkage because of dose inhomogeneity and decreased in patients with tumor enlargement. The V90%, V80%, and V50% increase with decreasing tumor volumes and were linearly related to the tumor volume difference, with a coefficient of determination of 0.97, 0.98, and 0.97, respectively. CONCLUSION Our study demonstrated the usefulness of repeat verification MRI for adaptive radiotherapy in the middle of the treatment period due to changes in tumor size, shape, and geometry in patients with brain metastases. Repeated MRI should be considered to evaluate the dose to the target and normal brain, which improves tumor local control and reduces brain necrosis, to reduce the magnitude of underdosing to the target or overdosing to the normal brain during the treatment period.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Although risk stratification is important in patients with acute heart failure (AHF) to predict patient prognosis, pre-existing risk models have not often been used due to its complexity. Recently, machine learning methods have been presented as an alternative approach to analyzing the predictive probability of large clinical datasets.
Purpose
The aim of this study is to develop a user-friendly risk score developed by one of machine learning methods and compare the performance of the new risk score to the existing conventional risk models.
Methods
A machine-learning-based risk model was developed using least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) regression by identifying predictors of in-hospital mortality in the derivation cohort (REALITY-AHF) and externally validating and comparing its performance with two pre-existing risk models: the Get With The Guidelines risk score incorporating brain natriuretic peptide and hypochloremia (GWTG-BNP-Cl-RS) and the acute decompensated heart failure national registry (ADHERE) risk model.
Results
In-hospital deaths in the derivation and validation (NARA-HF) cohorts were 76 (5.1%) and 61 (4.9%), respectively. The risk score comprised four variables (systolic blood pressure, blood urea nitrogen, serum chloride, and C-reactive protein) and was developed according to the results of the LASSO regression weighting the coefficient for selected variables using a logistic regression model (4V-RS). Even though 4V-RS comprised fewer variables, In the validation cohort, it showed a higher area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC) than the ADHERE risk model (AUC, 0.783 vs. 0.740; P=0.059) and a significant improvement in net reclassification (0.359; 95% CI, 0.10–0.67; p=0.006). 4V-RS performed similarly to GWTG-BNP-Cl-RS in terms of discrimination (AUC, 0.783 vs. 0.759; p=0.426) and net reclassification (0.176; 95% CI, −0.08–0.43; p=0.178).
Conclusions
The 4V-RS model comprising only four readily available data points at the time of admission performed similarly to the more complex pre-existing risk model in patients with AHF.

Abstract
The study investigated the effect of refraining from going out during the coronavirus disease 2019 pandemic on physical function in community-dwelling older adults. The study included 49 patients who underwent home-visit rehabilitation. Four parameters of physical function—grip strength, five-times sit-to-stand test, single-leg stance test, and standing test for imbalance and disequilibrium (SIDE)—were assessed. They were evaluated before (March 2020) and after (May 2020) the state emergency was imposed, and the results were compared. The grip strength decreased significantly. A significant difference was also observed in the proportion of different SIDE levels in the study group before and after the implementation of the state emergency. The number of SIDE 2a or lower patients increased during the state emergency (p < 0.001). Comprehensive community support and rehabilitation are necessary to maintain physical function in older individuals. In particular, we believe that there is a need to utilize remote rehabilitation using digital devices (such as internet-based guidance) so that older adults can continue to exercise at home.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Although regular physical activity has beneficial cardiovascular effects, exercise can trigger sudden cardiac arrest (SCA). Coronary artery disease (CAD) was identified as the most common cause of an exercise-related out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA). Regular exercise has been reported to reduce the risk of plaque rupture in animal studies and basic research. Therefore, we compared the coronary artery findings in CAD-OHCA patients with and without habitual exercise.
There have been few reports on whether regular exercise changes the prognosis in OHCA due to CAD (CAD-OHCA). We investigated the association between the better clinical outcome and the regular exercise in patients with CAD-OHCA.
Methods
This is a single-center retrospective analysis from 2006 to 2019. The consecutive 397 patients with OHCA due to myocardial ischemia underwent coronary angiography (CAG). After excluding 73 patients with vasospastic angina, the remaining 324 patients with CAD were enrolled in this study. We divided these patients into two groups according to whether they were habitually exercising (Exercise group: N=37) or not/unknown (Non-Exercise group: N=287).
Clinical outcome was a 30-day survival with minimal neurologic impairment represented by a Glasgow-Pittsburgh Cerebral Performance Categories Scale value 1 or 2.
Results
The patients in the Exercise Group were significantly younger (exercise vs. non-exercise, 57±12 vs. 64±12 years; P<0.01) than those in the non-exercise group. The Exercise group had a lower incidence of diabetes mellitus (22% vs. 42%; P=0.02) and a higher incidence of dyslipidemia (81% vs. 62%; P=0.02) than the non-exercise group. The time from collapse to cardiopulmonary resuscitation (1.4±4.0 vs. 3.0±4.8min) and from collapse to return of spontaneous circulation (11.9±10.0 vs. 28.0±25.3min) were shorter in Exercise group (all p<0.05). The ST-segment elevation was recorded on electrocardiography in fewer of the Exercise group (22% vs. 63%; P<0.01). The finding of culprit lesion in the coronary arteries on arrival resulted significant differences between the 2groups (good collateral and/or TIMI3 flow: 62% vs. 25%, the plaque rupture and/or thrombus: 22% vs. 73%) (all p<0.01) (Figure 1). Kaplan-Meier curve showed Exercise group has better neurological outcome at 30days compared than Non-Exercise (95% vs 51%; P<0.001, log-rank test) (Figure 2). Multivariable Cox proportional hazards models revealed that a habitual exercise was one of the predictors of a good neurological outcome (HR 0.21, 95% CI 0.05–0.92; P=0.039).
Conclusions
The patients with habitual exercise had less plaque rupture, less coronary thrombosis than non-exercise. The patients with regular exercise had better clinical outcomes than non-exercise after CAD-OHCA.

Background
Pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) remains a fatal disorder characterized by elevated pulmonary arterial pressure. Survival of the patients with PAH is determined from right ventricular (RV) function. CMR has become an attractive modality for following up and providing prognosis in such patients, and CMR feature tracking has been used as a newer useful parameter to assess RV function. However, it has not yet been determined whether CMR feature tracking can assess RV functional reserve in patients with PAH.
Purpose
We investigated whether CMR feature tracking can estimate RV functional reserve using a rat model with PAH.
Methods
Rats were received injections with monocrotaline (MCT-rats, n = 19) or solvent (Ctr-rats, n = 5). Four weeks after the injections, we performed CMR on 7-T MRI scanner and imaged retrospective ECG-gated cine MR (16 phases/beat). RV ejection fraction (RVEF) and RV strain were analyzed before and after addition of 0.5∼3 nmol endothelin-1 (ET-1). After the measurements, we dissected trabeculae (length = 1.45 ± 0.07 mm, width = 334 ± 27 µm, thickness = 114 ± 6 µm) from the RVs of rat hearts. Trabeculae were electrically stimulated with 2-s intervals at extracellular Ca2+ of 0.7 and 2.0 mmol/L (24°C). Force and maximum dF/dt (dF/dtmax) were then measured using a silicon strain gauge in the absence and presence of 0.1 µM ET-1.
Results
MCT-rats showed higher systolic RV pressure (RVP), lower RVEF, and lower RV global longitudinal strain (RVGLS) in CMR imaging and showed lower developed force and lower dF/dtmax in their trabeculae. Correlation between RVGLS and dF/dtmax was higher (r = 0.53, p < 0.05) than that between RVEF and dF/dtmax (r = 0.24). In 5 MCT-rats with preserved RVEF (>50%), RVGLS had already been reduced, suggesting that RVGLS is reduced earlier than RVEF. ET-1 increased developed force and dF/dtmax in trabeculae from MCT-rats (12.2 ± 5.7 to 17.4 ± 3.1 mN/mm2 and 0.08 ± 0.03 to 0.14 ± 0.06 mN/mm2/sec, respectively, n = 6), and ET-1 also increased RVP in MCT-rats and Ctr-rats (49.0 ± 19.3 to 59.7 ± 16.8 mmHg in MCT-rats, n = 6, 17.3 ± 7.5 to 20.4 ± 7.8 mmHg in Ctr-rats, n = 2). According to RV global circumferential strain (RVGCS) and RVEF, we could divide MCT-rats into three groups as follows: MCT-rats with reduced-RVGCS (> -20%)/preserved-RVEF (> 50%), MCT-rats with increased-RVGCS (< -30%)/preserved-RVEF and MCT-rats with reduced-RVGCS/reduced-RVEF. ET-1 reduced RVGCS in MCT-rats with reduced-RVGCS/preserved-RVEF, while ET-1 did not change RVGCS in MCT-rats with increased-RVGCS/preserved-RVEF. MCT-rats with reduced-RVGCS/reduced-RVEF died after injection of ET-1. In Ctr-rats, ET-1 did not change RVGCS and RVEF. These results suggest that RVGCS can be useful to assess RV functional reserve.
Conclusion
CMR feature tracking can estimate RV functional reserve earlier and more accurately than RVEF in rats with PAH. RV strain may become an important parameter to assess RV functional reserve in patients with PAH.

Abstract
Background R-CHOP-21 has been the standard treatment for diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL), but there is a paucity of evidence focusing on the number of cycles of regimens. Patients and methods We conducted a retrospective study to compare the effectiveness of six cycles of standard regimens versus eight cycles for overall survival (OS) in DLBCL patients using propensity score matching, in consideration of relative dose intensity (RDI). Results A total of 685 patients with newly diagnosed DLBCL were identified in three institutions from 2007 to 2017. Patients treated using six cycles of standard regimens were matched by propensity scores with those treated using eight cycles. A 1 : 1 propensity score matching yielded 138 patient pairs. Eight cycles did not significantly improve OS in the conventional Cox proportional hazards model (hazard ratio 0.849, 95% confidence interval 0.453-1.588, P = 0.608). Restricted cubic spline Cox models for OS confirmed that the effect of the number of cycles was not modified by total average RDI, the International Prognostic Index, and age. Occurrence of adverse events did not differ between six and eight cycles. Conclusion Even considering the impact of RDI, six cycles of the initial standard regimen for DLBCL is not inferior to eight cycles. The optimal number of cycles of standard regimens including R-CHOP-21 for newly diagnosed DLBCL has not been determined. This study was conducted to verify whether six cycles or eight cycles of standard regimen improved the prognosis of DLBCL. Propensity score matching and a Cox hazards model with restricted cubic spline were used in this study. No survival benefit of eight cycles compared with six cycles was seen, even taking into account RDI. Prognosis was no better with eight cycles of (R-)CHOP-21 or THP-COP-21 than with six cycles, after age and IPI modifications.

Abstract
Nicotinamide N-methyltransferase (NNMT), which catalyzes the methylation of nicotinamide, is a cytosolic enzyme that has attracted much attention as a therapeutic target for a variety of diseases. However, despite the considerable interest in this target, reports of NNMT inhibitors have still been limited to date. In this work, utilizing in vitro translated macrocyclic peptide libraries, we identified peptide 1 as a novel class of NNMT inhibitors. Further exploration based on the X-ray cocrystal structures of the peptides with NNMT provided a dramatic improvement in inhibitory activity (peptide 23: IC50 = 0.15 nM). Furthermore, by balance of the peptides' lipophilicity and biological activity, inhibitory activity against NNMT in cell-based assay was successfully achieved (peptide 26: cell-based IC50 = 770 nM). These findings illuminate the potential of cyclic peptides as a relatively new drug discovery modality even for intracellular targets.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Right ventricular (RV) function is an important prognostic factor in patients with pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH). Recently, CMR has become an attractive modality for follow up and providing prognosis in the patients, and strain has been used as a newer parameter to assess contractile properties of ventricle. It has not yet been established, however, whether RV strain with CMR can estimate RV functional reserve in the patients with PAH.
Purpose
We focused on CMR imaging of RV, investigating whether RV longitudinal strain can estimate RV functional reserve using a rat model with PAH.
Method
Rats were given a subcutaneous injection of 60 mg/kg monocrotaline (MCT-rats) or solvent (Ctr-rats). Four weeks after the injection, 25% of MCT-rats died due to RV failure. In the survivors of MCT- (n=19) and Ctr-rats (n=5), retrospective ECG-gated cine MR (16 phases/beat) was imaged with a 7T scanner. Subsequently, we measured RV pressure (RVP) via right internal jugular vein and dissected trabeculae (length = 1.45±0.07 mm, width = 334±27 μm, thickness = 114±6 μm) from RVs. We calculated weight ratio of RV free wall to left ventricle (LV) by RV/(LV+septum). Trabeculae were electrically stimulated with 2-s stimulus intervals, and force was measured using a silicon strain gauge (0.7 mM extracellular Ca2+, 24°C). To determine contractile properties of RV muscle, dF/dt was calculated. Using CMR imaging, we measured RV ejection fraction (RVEF) and RV longitudinal strain (RVLS). To modulate RVP, we intravenously injected 5 nmol endothelin-1 (ET-1) and again measured RVEF and RVLS.
Results
MCT-rats showed higher systolic RVP (62.5±16.6 vs. 25.9±1.86 mmHg, p<0.01) and higher weight ratio of RV (0.60±0.03 vs. 0.28±0.02, p<0.05). In CMR imaging, MCT-rats showed lower RVEF (36.1±11.2 vs. 64.8±8.4%, p<0.001) and lower RVLS (−18±9 vs. −30±1%, p<0.05). In trabeculae from RVs, MCT-rats showed lower developed force and lower dF/dt (p<0.01). Correlation between RVLS and dF/dt was higher (n=20, r=0.53, p<0.05) than that between RVEF and dF/dt (r=0.24). In addition, RVLS and dF/dt had already been decreased in 5 MCT-rats with relatively preserved RVEF (>50%), suggesting that RVLS decreases earlier than RVEF in MCT-rats. Ten minutes after the injection of ET-1, RVP was increased from 49.4±7.9 to 57.9±6.4 mmHg in MCT-rats (n=6). In MCT-rats with preserved RVEF and decreased RVLS, the increase in RVP chiefly decreased RVEF while it did not change RVLS and RVEF in Ctr-rats, meaning that RV functional reserve had been decreased in MCT-rats. In trabeculae, developed force and dF/dt were increased after the addition of 0.1 μM ET-1 in MCT- (n=11, p<0.01) and Ctr-rats (n=4, p<0.01).
Conclusion
These results suggest that in rats with PAH, RVLS obtained from CMR can estimate RV functional reserve earlier and more accurately than RVEF. Therefore, RV strain with CMR may become an important parameter to assess RV functional reserve in patients with PAH.

Abstract
We measured missing mass spectrum of the ^{12}C(γ,p) reaction for the first time in coincidence with potential decay products from η^{'} bound nuclei. We tagged an (η+p) pair associated with the η^{'}N→ηN process in a nucleus. After applying kinematical selections to reduce backgrounds, no signal events were observed in the bound-state region. An upper limit of the signal cross section in the opening angle cosθ_{lab}^{ηp}<-0.9 was obtained to be 2.2 nb/sr at the 90% confidence level. It is compared with theoretical cross sections, whose normalization ambiguity is suppressed by measuring a quasifree η^{'} production rate. Our results indicate a small branching fraction of the η^{'}N→ηN process and/or a shallow η^{'}-nucleus potential.

Abstract
AIMS To quantify the static and moving cutaneous sensibility threshold of diabetic patients using a neurosensory device for quantitative pressure detection. METHODS Three hundred thirty-four (n = 334) patients with type 2 diabetes and no previous history of wounds on the feet were studied using the one- and two-point static (1SP;2 SP) and one- and two-point moving (1MP;2 MP) tests through the pressure-specified sensory device (PSSD) on the cutaneous territory of the dorsal first web, hallux pulp, and medial calcaneal. In addition, patients were evaluated using the Semmes-Weinstein monofilament (SWM) No. 5.07 and tuning fork (128 Hz), which were used as normality parameters to detect the loss of protective sensibility. The same examinations were used to assess the control group (228 nondiabetic). RESULTS Altered values were observed for the static and moving tests over the three studied nerve territories. In comparing the sensibility threshold between diabetic patients who were sensitive and nonsensitive to SWM 5.07, we observed that this filament is not the most indicated for identifying the loss of sensibility in these patients. The prevalence of patients at risk varied between 85 and 89%. The biochemical marker associated with these high rates was HbA1c (p = 0.02). CONCLUSIONS Numeric quantification of the pressure threshold allowed us to determine the functional deficit of nerve fibers. Our findings suggest that the neurosensory device should be used as an adjuvant tool to evaluate the degree of loss of sensation on the skin.

Abstract
Abstract
Background and introduction
The percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) for acute coronary syndrome (ACS) shows worse clinical outcomes than that for stable angina. As the one of the reasons, a recent optical coherence tomography (OCT) registry showed that the presence of irregular protrusion (IP)after coronary stenting was the worse predictor of 1-year device-oriented clinical end points. However, the impact of the quantitative findings on IP has not been well investigated in ACS patients.
Aim
To investigate the clinical impact of the post stent OCT findings, especially IP, detected by OCT after coronary stenting in ACS patients.
Methods
Consecutive 256 ACS lesions treated with OCT-guided PCI in our Medical University Hospital from January 2013 to November 2016 was retrospectively analyzed. In 256 lesions, 173 lesions were enrolled which had ST-elevation acute myocardial infarction (STEMI) with the onset to recanalization time within 720 minutes. In 170 lesions, the OCT images were available. In OCT image, IP was detected in 140 lesions (82.3%). Quantitative analysis of IP in post-procedure OCT imaging was observed to identify the OCT predictors for clinical endpoint including cardiac death, target vessel revascularization ant stent thrombosis in 1 year after index PCI.
Result
In post-procedure OCT findings, stent edge dissection was detected in 32.4% of lesions. Incomplete stent apposition was detected in 74.1%. Maximum angle of irregular protrusion was 194±86 degree and the incidence of maximum IP angle >180 degree was 52.9%. Maximum height of IP was 0.26±0.11mm. Small minimal stent area, defined as a lesion with minimal stent area <5.0 mm2 in a drug-eluting stent or <5.6 mm2 in a bare metal stent, was observed in 32.4% of lesions. Maximum IP angle and that of >180degree was significantly associated with the clinical endpoint (p=0.0259 and 0.0429, respectively).
Conclusion
In STEMI patients, IP was frequently observed in post-procedure OCT imaging during primary PCI. The maximum angle of IP was significantly associated with the clinical end points. The prognostic impact of maximum IP angle in STEMI patient needs further investigations.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Intracoronary erosion and thrombus are sometimes detected in patients with vasospastic angina (VSA) through intracoronary imaging modalities. However, the clinical characteristics of these intracoronary findings remain unclear. Therefore, we assessed the clinical and lesion characteristics of these intracoronary abnormalities in patients with VSA.
Methods
We included 48 patients with VSA who underwent coronary angiography (CAG), spasm provocation test (SPT), and coronary angioscopy (CAS). In all patients, acetylcholine was infused in the left and right coronary arteries. The vessels were classified into spastic vessels (SVs) and non-spastic vessels (NSVs) based on SPT results. SVs that could not be observed using CAS were excluded from the study. CAG and SPT findings were evaluated for the presence of atherosclerotic lesions (%stenosis <30%) and types of spasm (segmental or diffuse). Two experts examined the presence of an intracoronary erosion and thrombus on CAS. Other serious symptoms such as cold sweating or syncope were also assessed.
Results
Among the 48 patients, intracoronary erosion and thrombus were detected in 11 (23%) and 10 (21%) patients, respectively, and total intracoronary abnormalities were observed in 17 (35%) patients. Male sex (p<0.05), smoking (p<0.05), and presence of other serious symptoms (p<0.01) were associated with the presence of intracoronary abnormalities. The logistic regression analysis showed the presence of other serious symptoms to be the only factor associated with the presence of intracoronary abnormalities (p<0.05). In the lesion analyses, among the 72 vessels, intracoronary abnormalities were observed only in SVs (17/53, 33%) but not in NSVs (0/19, 0%, p<0.01). Among the 53 SVs, the presence of atherosclerotic lesions (p<0.05) and segmental spasm type (p<0.05) were found to be associated with the presence of intracoronary abnormalities.
Conclusions
Intracoronary erosion and thrombus were observed in approximately 35% of patients with VSA. Such intracoronary abnormalities may be partly affected by the forms of the coronary artery and coronary spasm, leading to the onset of serious symptoms of VSA.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Reducing near-fatal asthma exacerbations is a critical problem in asthma management. OBJECTIVES To determine patterns of factors preceding asthma exacerbations in a real-world setting. METHODS In a nationwide prospective study of 190 patients who had experienced near-fatal asthma exacerbation, cluster analysis was performed using asthma symptoms over the 2-week period before admission. RESULTS Three distinct clusters of symptoms were defined employing the self-reporting of a visual analogue scale. Cluster A (42.1%): rapid worsening within 7.4 hours from moderate attack to admission, young to middle-aged patients with low Body mass index and tendency to depression who had stopped anti-asthma medications, smoked, and hypersensitive to environmental triggers and furred pets. Cluster B (40.0%): fairly rapid worsening within 48 hours, mostly middle-aged and older, relatively good inhaled corticosteroid (ICS) or ICS/long-acting beta-agonist (LABA) compliance, and low perception of dyspnea. Cluster C (17.9%): slow worsening over 10 days before admission, high perception of dyspnea, smokers, and chronic daily mild-moderate symptoms. There were no differences in overuse of short-acting beta-agonists, baseline asthma severity, or outcomes after admission for patients in these 3 clusters. CONCLUSION To reduce severe or life-threatening asthma exacerbation, personalized asthma management plans should be considered for each cluster. Improvement of ICS and ICS/LABA compliance and cessation of smoking are important in cluster A. To compensate for low perception of dyspnea, asthma monitoring of peak expiratory flow rate and/or exhaled nitric oxide would be useful for patients in cluster B. Avoidance of environmental triggers, increase usual therapy, or new anti-type 2 response-targeted therapies should be considered for cluster C.

Abstract
In hypothermic cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB), various vasodilators are used to control the perfusion pressure. These agents, however, often decrease the pressure excessively, and the low perfusion pressure may persist until the end of CPB. In this study we evaluate the safety and characteristics of the regulation of perfusion pressure during CPB using a volatile anesthetic, sevoflurane which has an extremely low partition coefficient. Twenty adult patients who underwent cardiac surgery were studied. Sevoflurane was applied by a vaporizer inserted into the oxygenator gas supply line. Pump flows were fixed at 2.4 L/min/m2 during the hypothermic period. Sevoflurane concentration was adjusted to keep mean arterial pressure (MAP) between 40 and 70 mmHg during CPB. Hemodynamic and metabolic parameters were measured and compared to the group we previously treated with chlorpromazine. In all cases, MAP could be maintained adequately. In the sevoflurane group, systemic vascular resistance indices (SVRI) during the rewarming period and at the end of CPB were higher, and doses of norepinephrine needed at the end of CPB were significantly lower than in the chlorpromazine group. The regulation of perfusion pressure during CPB using sevoflurane was safe and could easily maintain adequate SVRI.

Abstract
The biodistribution of N-isopropyl-p-iodoamphetamine (IMP) was studied in the rat brain.131 l-labelled IMP was injected intravenously in awake animals. Activities in the brain of Sprague-Dawley rats were 2.68–3.22 (% dose/g) in the cortex and 0.59–0.66 (% dose/g) in the white matter at 1 min p. i. Activities in the cortex were slightly increased at 60 min p. i., while activities in the white matter increased markedly at 60 min and 6 h p. i. Therefore, the cerebral cortex-to-white matter ratio decreased from 5 to 1 within 60 min after injection. Autoradiograms of the rat brain at 1–10 min p. i. showed high contrasts. Activities were high in the cortex and low in the white matter, but homogeneous at 60 min – 6 h. IMP seems to be a useful agent for cerebral perfusion imaging in the early phase after injection. Knowledge of biodistribution of this agent is considered to be indispensable for the interpretation of images.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Recent preclinical and phase I studies have reported that rebamipide decreased the severity of chemoradiotherapy-induced oral mucositis in patients with oral cancer. This placebo-controlled randomized phase II study assessed the clinical benefit of rebamipide in reducing the incidence of severe chemoradiotherapy-induced oral mucositis in patients with head and neck cancer (HNC). METHODS Patients aged 20-75 years with HNC who were scheduled to receive chemoradiotherapy were enrolled. Patients were randomized to receive rebamipide 2% liquid, rebamipide 4% liquid, or placebo. The primary endpoint was the incidence of grade ≥ 3 oral mucositis determined by clinical examination and assessed by central review according to the Common Terminology Criteria of Adverse Events version 3.0. Secondary endpoints were the time to onset of grade ≥ 3 oral mucositis and the incidence of functional impairment (grade ≥ 3) based on the evaluation by the Oral Mucositis Evaluation Committee. RESULTS From April 2014 to August 2015, 97 patients with HNC were enrolled, of whom 94 received treatment. The incidence of grade ≥ 3 oral mucositis was 29% and 25% in the rebamipide 2% and 4% groups, respectively, compared with 39% in the placebo group. The proportion of patients who did not develop grade ≥ 3 oral mucositis by day 50 of treatment was 57.9% in the placebo group, whereas the proportion was 68.0% in the rebamipide 2% group and 71.3% in the rebamipide 4% group. The incidences of adverse events potentially related to the study drug were 16%, 26%, and 13% in the placebo, rebamipide 2%, and rebamipide 4% groups, respectively. There was no significant difference in treatment compliance among the groups. CONCLUSIONS The present phase II study suggests that mouth washing with rebamipide may be effective and safe for patients with HNC receiving chemoradiotherapy, and 4% liquid is the optimal dose of rebamipide.

Abstract
Only limited epidemiological evidence exists regarding the relationship between diabetic neuropathy and erectile dysfunction (ED) among Japanese patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus. To investigate the relationship between diabetic neuropathy and ED among Japanese patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus, a multicenter cross-sectional study was conducted in 287 male Japanese patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus, age (19-65 years). Diabetic neuropathy was diagnosed if the patients showed two or more of the following three characteristics: neuropathic symptoms, decreased or disappeared Achilles tendon reflex and/or abnormal vibration perception. ED, moderate to severe ED, and severe ED were defined as present when a subject had a Sexual Health Inventory for Men score <22, <12 and <8, respectively. The prevalence values of diabetic neuropathy and severe ED were 47.0 and 39.0%, respectively. Diabetic neuropathy was independently positively associated with severe ED, but not ED and moderate ED: the adjusted odds ratio was 1.90 (95% confidence interval: 1.08-3.38). No relationships were found between diabetic retinopathy or diabetic nephropathy and ED. Diabetic neuropathy is positively associated with severe erectile dysfunction among Japanese type 2 diabetes mellitus patients aged <65 years.

Abstract
Dynamic helical CT-guided needle localization of non-palpable and mammographically occult breast lesions is described. Dynamic helical CT-technique enabled fast volume scanning of the whole breast during the early contrast enhancement phase, which provided sufficient contrast to localize the target lesions. The procedures were successfully completed without complications.

Abstract
We describe follow-up clinical and angiographical results in patients with unruptured cerebral aneurysms treated with IDC or GDC. In 28 patients who underwent intra-aneurysmal occlusion for unruptured aneurysms, there were no permanent neurological deficits in the periprocedural period, while three transient neurological deficits were observed. On the angiograms obtained immediately after the procedure, complete aneurysmal occlusion was achieved in three patients (10.7%), a small neck remnant was detected in two cases (7.1%), a body filling in 12 cases (42.9%) and both of them were detected in 11 patients (39.3%). On the follow up angiograms (median angiographical follow-up period 15.6 months), 46.4% of incompletely obliterated aneurysms showed aneurysmal recanalization, and a incompletely embolized aneurysm ruptured 15 months after initial embolization. Detachable platinum coil embolization is a safe treatment for unruptured aneurysms with a lower incidence of peri-procedural morbidity, wheareas follow-up results are less satisfactory in cases involving incompletely obliterated lesions. With this limitation in mind, patients need to be very carefully chosen for GDC embolization and strict follow-up angiography is mandatory when a complete embolization is not achieved.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Severe or life-threatening asthma exacerbation is one of the worst outcomes of asthma because of the risk of death. To date, few studies have explored the potential heterogeneity of this condition. OBJECTIVES To examine the clinical characteristics and heterogeneity of patients with severe or life-threatening asthma exacerbation. METHODS This was a multicentre, prospective study of patients with severe or life-threatening asthma exacerbation and pulse oxygen saturation < 90% who were admitted to 17 institutions across Japan. Cluster analysis was performed using variables from patient- and physician-orientated structured questionnaires. RESULTS Analysis of data from 175 patients with severe or life-threatening asthma exacerbation revealed five distinct clusters. Cluster 1 (n = 27) was younger-onset asthma with severe symptoms at baseline, including limitation of activities, a higher frequency of treatment with oral corticosteroids and short-acting beta-agonists, and a higher frequency of asthma hospitalizations in the past year. Cluster 2 (n = 35) was predominantly composed of elderly females, with the highest frequency of comorbid, chronic hyperplastic rhinosinusitis/nasal polyposis, and a long disease duration. Cluster 3 (n = 40) was allergic asthma without inhaled corticosteroid use at baseline. Patients in this cluster had a higher frequency of atopy, including allergic rhinitis and furred pet hypersensitivity, and a better prognosis during hospitalization compared with the other clusters. Cluster 4 (n = 34) was characterized by elderly males with concomitant chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Although cluster 5 (n = 39) had very mild symptoms at baseline according to the patient questionnaires, 41% had previously been hospitalized for asthma. CONCLUSIONS & CLINICAL RELEVANCE This study demonstrated that significant heterogeneity exists among patients with severe or life-threatening asthma exacerbation. Differences were observed in the severity of asthma symptoms and use of inhaled corticosteroids at baseline, and the presence of comorbid COPD. These findings may contribute to a deeper understanding and better management of this patient population.
