Abstract
BACKGROUND Efficacy of necitumumab [recombinant human monoclonal antibody that blocks the ligand binding epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR)] in patients with squamous (SQ) non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) has been confirmed in two randomized clinical trials (SQUIRE and JFCM). This study evaluated the association between efficacy and initial skin toxicity with necitumumab treatment by analyzing pooled data from two clinical trials (SQUIRE and JFCM). MATERIALS AND METHODS Data of 635 patients with SQ-NSCLC (intent-to-treat population) treated with necitumumab plus gemcitabine and cisplatin (N + GC) were pooled from two clinical trials (SQUIRE and JFCM). The relationship between skin toxicities developed by the end of the second cycle and efficacy was evaluated. Efficacy endpoints included overall survival (OS), progression-free survival (PFS), and objective response rate (ORR). Univariate and multivariate analyses were carried out for these endpoints. RESULTS OS and ORR were associated with skin toxicity, whereas PFS was not. Patients with grade ≥2 or grade 1 skin toxicity had significantly longer OS compared to patients without skin toxicity (grade 0) in the N + GC group [median = 15.0 (grade ≥2); 12.7 (grade 1); 9.4 (grade 0) months; hazard ratio (HR) = 0.51 (grade ≥2 to grade 0); 95% confidence interval (CI) 0.40-0.64, P < 0.001 and HR = 0.64 (grade 1 to grade 0); 95% CI 0.52-0.80, P < 0.001]. In multivariate analysis, OS was significantly associated with skin toxicity. CONCLUSIONS A significant association was found between necitumumab-induced skin toxicity and efficacy. These results are consistent with the previously reported association between other EGFR inhibitors-induced skin toxicity and efficacy.

Abstract
To detect and track structural changes in atomic nuclei, the systematic study of nuclear levels with firm spin-parity assignments is important. While linear polarization measurements have been applied to determine the electromagnetic character of gamma-ray transitions, the applicable range is strongly limited due to the low efficiency of the detection system. The multi-layer Cadmium-Telluride (CdTe) Compton camera can be a state-of-the-art gamma-ray polarimeter for nuclear spectroscopy with the high position sensitivity and the detection efficiency. We demonstrated the capability to operate this detector as a reliable gamma-ray polarimeter by using polarized 847-keV gamma rays produced by the [Formula: see text]([Formula: see text]) reaction. By combining the experimental data and simulated calculations, the modulation curve for the gamma ray was successfully obtained. A remarkably high polarization sensitivity was achieved, compatible with a reasonable detection efficiency. Based on the obtained results, a possible future gamma-ray polarimetery is discussed.

Abstract
SS 433 is a microquasar, a stellar binary system that launches collimated relativistic jets. We observed SS 433 in gamma rays using the High Energy Stereoscopic System (H.E.S.S.) and found an energy-dependent shift in the apparent position of the gamma-ray emission from the parsec-scale jets. These observations trace the energetic electron population and indicate that inverse Compton scattering is the emission mechanism of the gamma rays. Our modeling of the energy-dependent gamma-ray morphology constrains the location of particle acceleration and requires an abrupt deceleration of the jet flow. We infer the presence of shocks on either side of the binary system, at distances of 25 to 30 parsecs, and that self-collimation of the precessing jets forms the shocks, which then efficiently accelerate electrons.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Sodium-glucose co-transporter-2 (SGLT2) inhibitors reduce progression of chronic kidney disease and the risk of cardiovascular morbidity and mortality in a wide range of patients. However, their effects on kidney disease progression in some patients with chronic kidney disease are unclear because few clinical kidney outcomes occurred among such patients in the completed trials. In particular, some guidelines stratify their level of recommendation about who should be treated with SGLT2 inhibitors based on diabetes status and albuminuria. We aimed to assess the effects of empagliflozin on progression of chronic kidney disease both overall and among specific types of participants in the EMPA-KIDNEY trial. METHODS EMPA-KIDNEY, a randomised, controlled, phase 3 trial, was conducted at 241 centres in eight countries (Canada, China, Germany, Italy, Japan, Malaysia, the UK, and the USA), and included individuals aged 18 years or older with an estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) of 20 to less than 45 mL/min per 1·73 m2, or with an eGFR of 45 to less than 90 mL/min per 1·73 m2 with a urinary albumin-to-creatinine ratio (uACR) of 200 mg/g or higher. We explored the effects of 10 mg oral empagliflozin once daily versus placebo on the annualised rate of change in estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR slope), a tertiary outcome. We studied the acute slope (from randomisation to 2 months) and chronic slope (from 2 months onwards) separately, using shared parameter models to estimate the latter. Analyses were done in all randomly assigned participants by intention to treat. EMPA-KIDNEY is registered at ClinicalTrials.gov, NCT03594110. FINDINGS Between May 15, 2019, and April 16, 2021, 6609 participants were randomly assigned and then followed up for a median of 2·0 years (IQR 1·5-2·4). Prespecified subgroups of eGFR included 2282 (34·5%) participants with an eGFR of less than 30 mL/min per 1·73 m2, 2928 (44·3%) with an eGFR of 30 to less than 45 mL/min per 1·73 m2, and 1399 (21·2%) with an eGFR 45 mL/min per 1·73 m2 or higher. Prespecified subgroups of uACR included 1328 (20·1%) with a uACR of less than 30 mg/g, 1864 (28·2%) with a uACR of 30 to 300 mg/g, and 3417 (51·7%) with a uACR of more than 300 mg/g. Overall, allocation to empagliflozin caused an acute 2·12 mL/min per 1·73 m2 (95% CI 1·83-2·41) reduction in eGFR, equivalent to a 6% (5-6) dip in the first 2 months. After this, it halved the chronic slope from -2·75 to -1·37 mL/min per 1·73 m2 per year (relative difference 50%, 95% CI 42-58). The absolute and relative benefits of empagliflozin on the magnitude of the chronic slope varied significantly depending on diabetes status and baseline levels of eGFR and uACR. In particular, the absolute difference in chronic slopes was lower in patients with lower baseline uACR, but because this group progressed more slowly than those with higher uACR, this translated to a larger relative difference in chronic slopes in this group (86% [36-136] reduction in the chronic slope among those with baseline uACR <30 mg/g compared with a 29% [19-38] reduction for those with baseline uACR ≥2000 mg/g; ptrend<0·0001). INTERPRETATION Empagliflozin slowed the rate of progression of chronic kidney disease among all types of participant in the EMPA-KIDNEY trial, including those with little albuminuria. Albuminuria alone should not be used to determine whether to treat with an SGLT2 inhibitor. FUNDING Boehringer Ingelheim and Eli Lilly.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Amivantamab plus carboplatin-pemetrexed (chemotherapy) with and without lazertinib demonstrated antitumor activity in patients with refractory epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR)-mutated advanced non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) in phase I studies. These combinations were evaluated in a global phase III trial. PATIENTS AND METHODS A total of 657 patients with EGFR-mutated (exon 19 deletions or L858R) locally advanced or metastatic NSCLC after disease progression on osimertinib were randomized 2 : 2 : 1 to receive amivantamab-lazertinib-chemotherapy, chemotherapy, or amivantamab-chemotherapy. The dual primary endpoints were progression-free survival (PFS) of amivantamab-chemotherapy and amivantamab-lazertinib-chemotherapy versus chemotherapy. During the study, hematologic toxicities observed in the amivantamab-lazertinib-chemotherapy arm necessitated a regimen change to start lazertinib after carboplatin completion. RESULTS All baseline characteristics were well balanced across the three arms, including by history of brain metastases and prior brain radiation. PFS was significantly longer for amivantamab-chemotherapy and amivantamab-lazertinib-chemotherapy versus chemotherapy [hazard ratio (HR) for disease progression or death 0.48 and 0.44, respectively; P < 0.001 for both; median of 6.3 and 8.3 versus 4.2 months, respectively]. Consistent PFS results were seen by investigator assessment (HR for disease progression or death 0.41 and 0.38 for amivantamab-chemotherapy and amivantamab-lazertinib-chemotherapy, respectively; P < 0.001 for both; median of 8.2 and 8.3 versus 4.2 months, respectively). Objective response rate was significantly higher for amivantamab-chemotherapy and amivantamab-lazertinib-chemotherapy versus chemotherapy (64% and 63% versus 36%, respectively; P < 0.001 for both). Median intracranial PFS was 12.5 and 12.8 versus 8.3 months for amivantamab-chemotherapy and amivantamab-lazertinib-chemotherapy versus chemotherapy (HR for intracranial disease progression or death 0.55 and 0.58, respectively). Predominant adverse events (AEs) in the amivantamab-containing regimens were hematologic, EGFR-, and MET-related toxicities. Amivantamab-chemotherapy had lower rates of hematologic AEs than amivantamab-lazertinib-chemotherapy. CONCLUSIONS Amivantamab-chemotherapy and amivantamab-lazertinib-chemotherapy improved PFS and intracranial PFS versus chemotherapy in a population with limited options after disease progression on osimertinib. Longer follow-up is needed for the modified amivantamab-lazertinib-chemotherapy regimen.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Cyclosporine or infliximab (IFX) have been used to avoid surgery in patients with severe refractory ulcerative colitis (UC). Tacrolimus (Tac) is occasionally used as an alternative to cyclosporine; however, the comparative efficacy of Tac and IFX has not been reported. We aimed to compare the effectiveness of Tac and IFX in hospitalized patients with UC. METHODS In a propensity score-matched cohort derived from a large nationwide database, 4-year effectiveness was compared between patients initiated on Tac and those initiated on IFX. The primary outcome was the colectomy rate during the index hospitalization. We also analyzed the cumulative medication discontinuation, UC-related rehospitalization, and colectomy rates after discharge. RESULTS Among 29,239 hospitalized patients, 4,565 were extracted for eligibility, of whom 2,170 were treated with Tac and the remaining 2,395 with IFX. After propensity score matching, 1,787 patients were selected for each group. During the index hospitalization, excluding patients who switched to another molecular-targeted agent, the colectomy rate was higher in the Tac group than in the IFX group (7.8% vs 4.2%, P < 0.01). Among patients discharged without colectomy, the cumulative medication discontinuation (28.4% vs 17.1%, P < 0.01) and rehospitalization (22.4% vs 15.4%, P < 0.01) rates were higher in the Tac group than in the IFX group; however, there was no difference in the cumulative colectomy rate (3.3% vs 2.7%). DISCUSSION Although Tac and IFX were effective for avoiding surgery in hospitalized patients with UC, IFX was more effective than Tac. IFX also had higher long-term effectiveness. Future prospective studies comparing the efficacy of Tac and IFX are warranted.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The EMPA-KIDNEY trial showed that empagliflozin reduced the risk of the primary composite outcome of kidney disease progression or cardiovascular death in patients with chronic kidney disease mainly through slowing progression. We aimed to assess how effects of empagliflozin might differ by primary kidney disease across its broad population. METHODS EMPA-KIDNEY, a randomised, controlled, phase 3 trial, was conducted at 241 centres in eight countries (Canada, China, Germany, Italy, Japan, Malaysia, the UK, and the USA). Patients were eligible if their estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) was 20 to less than 45 mL/min per 1·73 m2, or 45 to less than 90 mL/min per 1·73 m2 with a urinary albumin-to-creatinine ratio (uACR) of 200 mg/g or higher at screening. They were randomly assigned (1:1) to 10 mg oral empagliflozin once daily or matching placebo. Effects on kidney disease progression (defined as a sustained ≥40% eGFR decline from randomisation, end-stage kidney disease, a sustained eGFR below 10 mL/min per 1·73 m2, or death from kidney failure) were assessed using prespecified Cox models, and eGFR slope analyses used shared parameter models. Subgroup comparisons were performed by including relevant interaction terms in models. EMPA-KIDNEY is registered with ClinicalTrials.gov, NCT03594110. FINDINGS Between May 15, 2019, and April 16, 2021, 6609 participants were randomly assigned and followed up for a median of 2·0 years (IQR 1·5-2·4). Prespecified subgroupings by primary kidney disease included 2057 (31·1%) participants with diabetic kidney disease, 1669 (25·3%) with glomerular disease, 1445 (21·9%) with hypertensive or renovascular disease, and 1438 (21·8%) with other or unknown causes. Kidney disease progression occurred in 384 (11·6%) of 3304 patients in the empagliflozin group and 504 (15·2%) of 3305 patients in the placebo group (hazard ratio 0·71 [95% CI 0·62-0·81]), with no evidence that the relative effect size varied significantly by primary kidney disease (pheterogeneity=0·62). The between-group difference in chronic eGFR slopes (ie, from 2 months to final follow-up) was 1·37 mL/min per 1·73 m2 per year (95% CI 1·16-1·59), representing a 50% (42-58) reduction in the rate of chronic eGFR decline. This relative effect of empagliflozin on chronic eGFR slope was similar in analyses by different primary kidney diseases, including in explorations by type of glomerular disease and diabetes (p values for heterogeneity all >0·1). INTERPRETATION In a broad range of patients with chronic kidney disease at risk of progression, including a wide range of non-diabetic causes of chronic kidney disease, empagliflozin reduced risk of kidney disease progression. Relative effect sizes were broadly similar irrespective of the cause of primary kidney disease, suggesting that SGLT2 inhibitors should be part of a standard of care to minimise risk of kidney failure in chronic kidney disease.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Endovascular thrombectomy (EVT) is performed for acute ischemic stroke (AIS) caused by large vessel occlusion; therefore, preoperative visualization of the occluded invisible vessel course reduces complications and ensures success. Three-dimensional (3D) proton density-weighted (PDW) vessel wall imaging (VWI) using variable refocusing flip angle pulse-turbo spin-echo sequences (VRFA-TSE) with 3.0-T magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) can provide this information. PURPOSE To assess the effectiveness of 3D PDW-VWI using 1.5-T MRI without VRFA function. MATERIAL AND METHODS Five consecutive patients with AIS caused by large vessel occlusion underwent EVT in our institute. VWI with 1.5-T MRI using 3D PDW-fast spin echo (FSE) technique was added to conventional brain imaging. RESULTS PDW-FSE was successfully performed in all cases. 3D PDW-FSE was useful to visualize both the anterior and posterior circulations by clearly revealing invisible vessels but could not demonstrate the length and size of the clot in all five cases. CONCLUSION 3D PDW-FSE with 1.5-T MRI without VRFA could clearly depict the course of the invisible occluded artery and might support favorable outcomes after EVT in patients with AIS.

Abstract
Antiferromagnetic (AF) topological materials offer a fertile ground to explore a variety of quantum phenomena such as axion magnetoelectric dynamics and chiral Majorana fermions. To realize such intriguing states, it is essential to establish a direct link between electronic states and topology in the AF phase, whereas this has been challenging because of the lack of a suitable materials platform. Here we report the experimental realization of the AF topological-insulator phase in NdBi. By using micro-focused angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy, we discovered contrasting surface electronic states for two types of AF domains; the surface having the out-of-plane component in the AF-ordering vector displays Dirac-cone states with a gigantic energy gap, whereas the surface parallel to the AF-ordering vector hosts gapless Dirac states despite the time-reversal-symmetry breaking. The present results establish an essential role of combined symmetry to protect massless Dirac fermions under the presence of AF order and widen opportunities to realize exotic phenomena utilizing AF topological materials.

Abstract
PURPOSE/OBJECTIVE(S) To investigate the incidence of severe radiation-induced lymphopenia (SRL) and the survival in patients with stage Ⅲ non-small cell lung cancer treated with concurrent chemoradiotherapy with passive scattering proton beam (PSPT) or photon-based radiotherapy (XRT) including 3D-CRT and IMRT. MATERIALS/METHODS We conducted a retrospective cohort study including 355 patients who received definitive concurrent chemoradiotherapy with PSPT (n = 38) or XRT (n = 317) at our institution between January 2010 and December 2020. SRL during concurrent chemoradiotherapy was defined as absolute lymphocyte counts (ALCs) of <500 cells/mm3. Propensity score matching (PSM) analysis was performed to adjust for the patient characteristics between the PSPT and XRT groups. Propensity scores were calculated using age, sex, PS (0-1 vs. 2), primary tumor location (upper/middle vs. lower lobe), pathology (Adeno vs. Others), PTV volume, ALCs at pretreatment, year of treatment (before vs. after July 2018, when durvalumab approved in Japan), and platinum-based chemotherapy regimen (CDDP based vs. CBDCA based). After PSM, the incidence of SRL and the overall survival (OS) were analyzed. RESULTS The GTV and PTV volumes were significantly lower in the PSPT group than in the XRT group (median, 57 vs. 103 mm3; p < 0.05, 322 vs. 399 mm3; p < 0.05, respectively). ALCs at pretreatment were significantly lower in the PSPT group than in the XRT group (median, 1531 vs. 1718 cells/mm3; p < 0.05). SRL was observed in 275 patients (87%) in the XRT group and 27 patients (71%) in the PSPT group (p < 0.05). After PSM, PSPT significantly reduced the incidence of SRL compared to XRT (68.6 % vs. 88.6 %, p < 0.05), and the patients without SRL may have better 3-year OS than those with SRL (71.1 % vs. 55.3 %; p = 0.062). CONCLUSION Compared with XRT, PSPT significantly reduced the incidence of SRL, and the patients without SRL had a good prognosis.

Abstract
PURPOSE/OBJECTIVE(S) Clinical practice is not always performed in accordance with guideline recommendations. Quality indicators (QIs) are valuable tools for evaluating the quality of healthcare systems. We sought to identify potential gaps between clinical practice and evidence using QIs previously developed using a modified Delphi method. MATERIALS/METHODS We used seven QIs (Table 1) to assess the quality of radiation therapy for bone (BoM) and brain metastases (BrM) at 29 centers; 13 (45%) were academic (12 university hospitals and 1 cancer center) and 16 (55%) were nonacademic hospitals. Compliance rate was calculated as the percentage of patients for whom recommended medical care was conducted. Random effects models were used to estimate pooled compliance rates. Mixed effects models with a Q test were used to compare compliance rates between academic and nonacademic centers. RESULTS The estimates of the compliance rates with 95% confidence intervals are presented in Table 1. For BoM-1, the compliance rate was higher in academic hospitals (100% [100-100%]) than in non-academic hospitals (96% [89-100%]) (P = 0.021). For BrM-3, the compliance rate was lower in academic hospitals (92% [81-99%]) than in nonacademic hospitals (100% [98-100%]) (P = 0.016). CONCLUSION A quality assessment based on these seven QIs is feasible. Overall, compliance rates were high; however, for BoM-3, the practice remains to be improved in some centers. Based on BoM-4 compliance rates, steroids are infrequently used concurrently with radiation therapy for malignant spinal cord compression. Extended fractionation for BoM was less frequently performed in academic than in nonacademic centers. The initiation of radiation therapy for brain metastases was more frequently delayed in academic than in nonacademic centers.

Abstract
Rothamsted Research (RRes) is the world's oldest agricultural research centre, notable for the development of the first synthetic fertilizer (superphosphate) and long-term farming experiments (LTEs) spanning over 170 years. In 2015, RRes recruited several life cycle assessment (LCA) experts and began adopting the method to utilize high resolution agronomical data covering livestock (primarily ruminants), grassland/forage productivity and quality, and arable systems established on its North Wyke Farm Platform (NWFP) and the LTEs. The NWFP is a UK 'National Bioscience Research Infrastructure' (NBRI) developed for informing and testing systems science utilising high-resolution data to determine whether it is possible to produce nutritious food sustainably. Thanks largely to the multidisciplinary knowledge at RRes, and its collaborators, its LCA Team has been at the forefront of methodological advances during a 6-year Institute Strategic Programme (ISP) 'Soil-to-Nutrition' (S2N). While S2N investigated the co-benefits and trade-offs of new mechanistic understanding of efficient nutrient use across scales from pot to landscape, this commentary specifically synthesizes progress in incorporating human nutrition in the context of environmental footprinting, known as 'nutritional LCA' (nLCA). We conclude our commentary with a brief discussion on future pathways of exploration and methodological developments covering various activities along entire agri-food supply-chains.

Abstract
To test bound-state quantum electrodynamics (BSQED) in the strong-field regime, we have performed high precision x-ray spectroscopy of the 5g-4f and 5f- 4d transitions (BSQED contribution of 2.4 and 5.2 eV, respectively) of muonic neon atoms in the low-pressure gas phase without bound electrons. Muonic atoms have been recently proposed as an alternative to few-electron high-Z ions for BSQED tests by focusing on circular Rydberg states where nuclear contributions are negligibly small. We determined the 5g_{9/2}- 4f_{7/2} transition energy to be 6297.08±0.04(stat)±0.13(syst) eV using superconducting transition-edge sensor microcalorimeters (5.2-5.5 eV FWHM resolution), which agrees well with the most advanced BSQED theoretical prediction of 6297.26 eV.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Although live-attenuated vaccines are contraindicated under immunosuppression, the immune status of patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) has not been fully assessed prior to immunosuppressive therapy. AIMS To investigate antiviral serostatus against viruses requiring live vaccines for prevention in IBD patients undergoing immunosuppressive therapy. METHODS This multicenter study included IBD patients who were aged <40 years and were treated with thiopurine monotherapy, molecular-targeted monotherapy, or combination therapy. Gender- and age-matched healthy subjects (HS) living in the same areas were included as control group. Antibody titers against measles, rubella, mumps, and varicella were measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays. RESULTS A total of 437 IBD patients (163 ulcerative colitis [UC] and 274 Crohn's disease [CD]) and 225 HS were included in the final analysis. Compared with HS, IBD patients had lower seropositivity rates for measles (IBD vs. HS = 83.91% vs. 85.33%), rubella (77.55% vs. 84.89%), mumps (37.50% vs. 37.78%), and varicella (91.26% vs. 96.44%). Gender- and age-adjusted seropositivity rates were lower in UC patients than in both CD patients and HS for measles (UC, CD, and HS = 81.60%, 85.29%, and 85.33%), rubella (76.40%, 78.23%, and 84.89%), mumps (27.16%, 43.70%, and 37.78%), and varicella (90.80%, 91.54%, and 96.44%); the difference was significant for all viruses except measles. Divided by the degree of immunosuppression, there were no significant differences in seropositivity rates among IBD patients. CONCLUSIONS IBD patients, especially those with UC, exhibit reduced seropositivity rates and may benefit from screening prior to the initiation of immunosuppressive therapy.

Abstract
Samples of the carbonaceous asteroid Ryugu were brought to Earth by the Hayabusa2 spacecraft. We analyzed 17 Ryugu samples measuring 1 to 8 millimeters. Carbon dioxide-bearing water inclusions are present within a pyrrhotite crystal, indicating that Ryugu's parent asteroid formed in the outer Solar System. The samples contain low abundances of materials that formed at high temperatures, such as chondrules and calcium- and aluminum-rich inclusions. The samples are rich in phyllosilicates and carbonates, which formed through aqueous alteration reactions at low temperature, high pH, and water/rock ratios of <1 (by mass). Less altered fragments contain olivine, pyroxene, amorphous silicates, calcite, and phosphide. Numerical simulations, based on the mineralogical and physical properties of the samples, indicate that Ryugu's parent body formed ~2 million years after the beginning of Solar System formation.

Abstract
1. This study assessed 1) the effects of Paracoccus carotinifaciens supplementation containing high astaxanthin levels on egg production performance and quality, 2) dynamics of carotenoids levels in the egg yolk and 3) taste of astaxanthin-rich egg yolk.2. Laying hens were fed diets containing different levels of P. carotinifaciens-derived astaxanthin (ASX; 0, 2, 4, 8, or 16 ppm) for 28 d (experiment 1) or a diet containing 16 ppm astaxanthin for 28 d followed by a 0 ppm astaxanthin diet for 28 days (experiment 2).3. Production performance, egg quality and egg yolk carotenoid levels were examined in experiment 1 (Ex1) and the dynamics of egg yolk carotenoid levels and egg yolk taste in experiment 2 (Ex2).4. ASX supplementation did not affect production performance or egg quality. ASX levels in the egg yolk became saturated after seven days of 16 ppm supplementation and decreased to less than one-tenth of the saturated levels seven days after supplementation cessation. Supplementation with 16 ppm ASX for 28 d did not affect egg yolk taste.5. Supplementation resulted in the production of ASX-rich eggs for a brief period without affecting production performance, egg quality or taste. Understanding the time taken for the incorporation of ASX into egg yolks is beneficial for value-added egg production and may help in minimising supplementation costs.

Abstract
GOAL AND THEORETICAL COMMENTARY A number of recent life cycle assessment (LCA) studies have concluded that animal-sourced foods should be restricted-or even avoided-within the human diet due to their relatively high environmental impacts (particularly those from ruminants) compared with other protein-rich foods (mainly protein-rich plant foods). From a nutritional point of view, however, issues such as broad nutrient bioavailability, amino acid balances, digestibility and even non-protein nutrient density (e.g., micronutrients) need to be accounted for before making such recommendations to the global population. This is especially important given the contribution of animal sourced foods to nutrient adequacy in the global South and vulnerable populations of high-income countries (e.g., children, women of reproductive age and elderly). Often, however, LCAs simplify this reality by using 'protein' as a functional unit in their models and basing their analyses on generic nutritional requirements. Even if a 'nutritional functional unit' (nFU) is utilised, it is unlikely to consider the complexities of amino acid composition and subsequent protein accretion. The discussion herein focuses on nutritional LCA (nLCA), particularly on the usefulness of nFUs such as 'protein,' and whether protein quality should be considered when adopting the nutrient as an (n)FU. Further, a novel and informative case study is provided to demonstrate the strengths and weaknesses of protein-quality adjustment. CASE STUDY METHODS To complement current discussions, we present an exploratory virtual experiment to determine how Digestible Indispensable Amino Acid Scores (DIAAS) might play a role in nLCA development by correcting for amino acid quality and digestibility. DIAAS is a scoring mechanism which considers the limiting indispensable amino acids (IAAs) within an IAA balance of a given food (or meal) and provides a percentage contribution relative to recommended daily intakes for IAA and subsequent protein anabolism; for clarity, we focus only on single food items (4 × animal-based products and 4 × plant-based products) in the current case exemplar. Further, we take beef as a sensitivity analysis example (which we particularly recommend when considering IAA complementarity at the meal-level) to elucidate how various cuts of the same intermediary product could affect the interpretation of nLCA results of the end-product(s). RECOMMENDATIONS First, we provide a list of suggestions which are intended to (a) assist with deciding whether protein-quality correction is necessary for a specific research question and (b) acknowledge additional uncertainties by providing mitigating opportunities to avoid misinterpretation (or worse, dis-interpretation) of protein-focused nLCA studies. We conclude that as relevant (primary) data availability from supply chain 'gatekeepers' (e.g., international agri-food distributors and processors) becomes more prevalent, detailed consideration of IAA provision of contrasting protein sources needs to be acknowledged-ideally quantitatively with DIAAS being one example-in nLCA studies utilising protein as a nFU. We also contend that future nLCA studies should discuss the complementarity of amino acid balances at the meal-level, as a minimum, rather than the product level when assessing protein metabolic responses of consumers. Additionally, a broader set of nutrients should ideally be included when evaluating "protein-rich foods" which provide nutrients that extend beyond amino acids, which is of particular importance when exploring dietary-level nLCA.

Abstract
AIMS Although palliative radiotherapy for gastric cancer may improve some symptoms, it may also have a negative impact due to its toxicity. We investigated whether symptoms improved after radiotherapy with adjustment for the Palliative Prognostic Index (PPI) considering that patients with limited survival tend to experience deterioration of symptoms. MATERIALS AND METHODS This study was an exploratory analysis of the Japanese Radiation Oncology Study Group study (JROSG 17-3). We assessed six symptom scores (nausea, anorexia, fatigue, shortness of breath, pain at the irradiated area and distress) at registration and 2, 4 and 8 weeks thereafter. We tested whether symptoms linearly improved after adjusting for the baseline PPI. Shared parameter models were used to adjust for potential bias in missing data. RESULTS The present study analysed all 55 patients enrolled in JROSG 17-3. With time from registration as the only explanatory variable in the model, a significant linear decrease was observed in shortness of breath, pain and distress (slopes, -0.26, -0.22 and -0.19, respectively). Given that the interaction terms (i.e. PPI × time) were not significantly associated with symptom scores in any of the six symptoms, only PPI was included as the main effect in the final multivariable models. After adjusting for the PPI, shortness of breath, pain and distress significantly improved (slope, -0.25, -0.19 and -0.17; P < 0.001, 0.002 and 0.047, respectively). An improvement in fatigue and distress was observed only in patients treated with a biologically effective dose ≤14.4 Gy. CONCLUSION Shortness of breath, pain and distress improved after radiotherapy. Moreover, a higher PPI was significantly associated with higher symptom scores at all time points, including baseline. In contrast, PPI did not seem to influence the improvement of these symptoms. Regardless of the expected survival, patients receiving radiotherapy for gastric cancer can expect an improvement in shortness of breath, pain and distress over 8 weeks. Multiple-fraction radiotherapy might hamper the improvement in fatigue and distress by its toxicity or treatment burden.

Abstract
A double-chord ion Doppler spectroscopy (IDS) system was developed to measure the ion temperature and flow velocity of field-reversed configuration (FRC) plasmas in the FRC amplification via a translation-collisional merging (FAT-CM) device. Adopting a Czerny-Turner mount monochromator and 16-channel photomultiplier tube array, the developed IDS system achieves high wavelength resolution and fast time response. In addition, two vertically aligned optical paths share the optical system up to the monochromator and then branch just before the detector, successfully reducing crosstalk to <1%. The Doppler broadening was measured at two measurement points in the FAT-CM device, simultaneously, and ion temperatures of ∼50 eV were measured. Toroidal spin-up from 7 to 15 km/s and a steady flow velocity of ∼10 km/s were estimated from the Doppler shift obtained by the developed system. The observation of the toroidal flow velocity and the spatial profile of the ion temperature of the FRC plasma in the FAT-CM device were realized. These spectroscopic diagnostic's double chord capabilities will aid in understanding and improving the FRC plasmas.

Abstract
PURPOSE/AIM To evaluate the effect of different veneering liquids used for modeling on microhardness, fracture toughness and biaxial flexural strength of a glass-veneering ceramic. MATERIAL AND METHODS The manufacturer recommended modeling liquid (ML), distilled water (DW), isopropyl alcohol (IA), 0.5% (P05), 1% (P1), and 2% (P2) polyethylene glycol solutions were mixed with feldspathic ceramic powder to form disc-shaped samples (n=20, 15 mm × 1.2 mm). After sintering, samples were mirror-polished and subjected to Vickers indentation (n=5) for measurement of microhardness and fracture toughness. The remaining 15 samples from each group were subjected to biaxial flexural strength. Data were subjected to one-way ANOVA and Weibull analysis. RESULTS The microhardness was affected by veneering liquid (p=0.002): DW promoted higher microhardness values than ML and IA. Fracture toughness (p=0.301) and flexural strength (p=0.930) were not affected by the veneering liquid but Weibull parameters were affected. All groups presented surface pores under high magnification. CONCLUSION Even though the use of DW led to higher values of surface microhardness than the ML, all obtained values are inside the range of enamel microhardness values reported in the literature. Such parameters may affect antagonist wear and should be reported in clinical trials.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Ustekinumab (UST), an antibody against the p40 subunit of interleukin-12/23, has been proven to be effective in patients with Crohn's disease (CD). However, large, long-term comparative studies of UST against anti--tumor necrosis factor (TNF) agents are lacking. We compared the effectiveness of anti-TNF agents and UST in CD patients without prior use of biologics. METHODS We used a large nationwide anonymized Japanese database containing administrative medical claims data and various related patient data. In a propensity score-matched cohort with similar clinical characteristics, 2-year effectiveness was compared between patients treated with infliximab or adalimumab (anti-TNF group) and those treated with UST (UST group). Primary outcomes were cumulative rates of hospitalization, surgery, and persistence. RESULTS Among 53 540 CD patients, 7047 were extracted for eligibility, of which 5665 were treated with an anti-TNF agent and 1382 with UST. After propensity score matching, the cumulative hospitalization rates were comparable between anti-TNF and UST groups (P = 0.85; 25.3% vs 26.5% at 1 year, 33.8% vs 39.8% at 2 years). The cumulative surgery rates were also comparable between these groups (P = 0.46; 5.5% vs 5.1% at 1 year, 8.3% vs 8.4% at 2 years). The persistence rate at 1 year was higher in UST group (90.8% vs 92.5%), and that at 2 years was higher in anti-TNF group (81.2% and 74.6%); however, there was no significant difference in the cumulative persistence rate (P = 0.55). CONCLUSIONS Anti-TNF agents and UST appear to have comparable effectiveness for CD patients without prior use of biologics.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Hypertension and diabetes mellitus frequently coexist; however, it has not yet been clarified if the bidirectional longitudinal relationships between arterial stiffness and hypertension are independent of those between arterial stiffness and diabetes mellitus.
Methods
In this 16-year prospective observational study, 3960 middle-aged employees of a Japanese company without hypertension/diabetes mellitus at the study baseline underwent annual repeated measurements of the blood pressure, serum glycosylated hemoglobin A1c levels (HbA1c), and brachial-ankle pulse wave velocity (baPWV).
Results
By the end of the study period, 664, 779, 154, and 406 subjects developed hypertension, prehypertension, diabetes mellitus, and prediabetes, respectively. Increased baPWV at the baseline was associated with a significant odds ratio (per 1 standard deviation increase) for new onset of prehypertension/hypertension with (2.45/3.28, P<0.01) or without (2.49/2.76, P<0.01) coexisting prediabetes/diabetes mellitus, but not for new onset of prediabetes/diabetes mellitus without coexisting hypertension. Analyses using the latent growth curve model confirmed the bidirectional relationships between baPWV and hypertension, but no such relationship was observed between baPWV and abnormal glucose metabolism. Moreover, after the adjustments, higher mean blood pressure at baseline accelerated the increases in the baPWV over follow-up (unstandardized coefficient [B] = 0.39, standard error [SE] = 0.05x10–1, P<0.01). Similarly, higher baPWV at baseline accelerated the increases in mean blood pressure over follow-up (B = 0.02x10–1, SE = 0.01x10–1, P<0.01) (Figure 1). On the other hands, higher HbA1c levels at baseline accelerated the increases in the baPWV over follow-up (B = 0.43, SE = 0.05x10–1, P<0.01), but higher baPWV at baseline did not accelerate the increases in HbA1c levels over follow-up (B <0.01, SE <0.01, P=0.52) (Figure 2).
Conclusions
In middle-aged employees of a Japanese company, in contrast to the bidirectional relationships that exist between arterial stiffness and hypertension, increased arterial stiffness preceding the development of diabetes mellitus may represent that associated with the development of hypertension, as it is observed only in cases of diabetes mellitus coexisting with hypertension. Therefore, arterial stiffness may be associated to a greater degree with the development of hypertension than with the development of diabetes mellitus.

Abstract
Abstract
Backgrounds
While arterial stiffness and abnormal pressure wave reflection are independent cardiovascular risk, the difference of their association with alcohol intake have not been fully clarified.
Aim
This prospective observational study, which utilized repeated annual measurements performed over a 9-year period, applied mixed model analyses to examine age-related differences in longitudinal associations between alcohol intake and arterial stiffness, pressure wave reflection, and inflammation.
Methods
In 4016 middle-aged (43±9 years) healthy Japanese male employees, alcohol intake, brachial-ankle pulse wave velocity (baPWV), radial augmentation index (rAI), and serum C-reactive protein (CRP) levels were measured annually during a 9-year study period. Based on the questionnaire, alcohol intake was classified as non-drinker, mild-moderate drinker (ethanol 1–20 g/day) and heavy drinker (>20 g/day).
Results
The estimated marginal mean baPWV (non-drinkers = 1306 cm/s, mild-moderate drinkers = 1311 cm/s, and heavy drinkers = 1337 cm/s, P<0.01) and that of rAI showed significant stepped increases in an alcohol dose-dependent manner in the entire cohort, but an increase in rAI was not observed in subjects aged ≥50 years. The estimated slope of the annual increase in baPWV, but not rAI, was higher for heavy drinkers than for non-drinkers (slope difference, 2.73; P<0.01), especially for subjects aged <50 years. The estimated marginal mean of the serum CRP levels was lower for drinkers than for non-drinkers.
Conclusion
In middle-aged male Japanese employees, alcohol intake may attenuate inflammatory activity. While alcohol intake may exacerbate the progression of arterial stiffening in a dose-dependent manner without mediating inflammation, especially in subjects under 50 years of age, it may promote pressure wave reflection abnormalities with aging at earlier ages without further exacerbation at older ages.

Abstract
Visualization of the collisional merging formation process of field-reversed configuration (FRC) has been attempted. In the collisional merging formation process, two initial FRC-like plasmoids are accelerated toward each other by a magnetic pressure gradient. The relative speed of the collision reaches several times the typical ion sonic speed and Alfvénic speed. The magnetic structure of the initial-FRCs is disrupted in the collision process, but the FRC-like magnetic structure is reformed in ∼30 µs after the collision. Magnetic reconnection should occur in this process; however, general theoretical models in magnetohydrodynamics approximation cannot be applied to this process because of the high-beta nature of FRC and super-Alfvénic/sonic relative speed. In this work, the spectroscopic observation of the collisional merging FRC formation was conducted to evaluate the timescale and geometry of merging. A slight amount of tracer element (e.g., helium) was mixed into one of two initial-FRCs. Mixing of the tracer did not cause serious adverse effects on the performance of the initial-FRC in the collision and merging processes. The collision and merging processes were visualized successfully and observed using a fast-framing camera with a bandpass filter. The timescale of merging and the outflow speed in the collisional merging process of FRCs were optically evaluated for the first time.

Abstract
A visible light tomographic imaging system has been developed for the collisional merging experiment of field-reversed configurations (FRCs) on the FRC Amplification via Translation-Collisional Merging device at Nihon University. Two FRCs formed by field-reversed theta-pinch translate at super-Alfvénic velocity and collide with each other. The translation and collision processes are completed in 20-30 µs, and a single FRC is reformed in ∼70 µs. To study these translation and collisional merging processes, the tomographic system, including fast response tomographic cameras and a reconstruction method assuming a Rigid-Rotor (RR) model, is developed. The developed tomographic cameras simply consist of 16 channels of multi-anode photomultipliers, a band-pass filter, a slit, and a cylindrical lens, which expands the viewing angle. Because the viewing angle is limited by the size of the viewports of the metal chamber, the iterative method assuming the RR model has been applied to reconstruct tomographic images from a small number of projections. The developed tomographic imaging system can estimate the behavior of FRCs. Four cameras are installed in the two cross sections near the collision point. The radial shift of each translated FRC can be calculated by this system. Details of the developed tomographic camera system and RR reconstruction method are reported.

Abstract
The central region of the Milky Way is one of the foremost locations to look for dark matter (DM) signatures. We report the first results on a search for DM particle annihilation signals using new observations from an unprecedented γ-ray survey of the Galactic Center (GC) region, i.e., the Inner Galaxy Survey, at very high energies (≳100 GeV) performed with the H.E.S.S. array of five ground-based Cherenkov telescopes. No significant γ-ray excess is found in the search region of the 2014-2020 dataset and a profile likelihood ratio analysis is carried out to set exclusion limits on the annihilation cross section ⟨σv⟩. Assuming Einasto and Navarro-Frenk-White (NFW) DM density profiles at the GC, these constraints are the strongest obtained so far in the TeV DM mass range. For the Einasto profile, the constraints reach ⟨σv⟩ values of 3.7×10^{-26} cm^{3} s^{-1} for 1.5 TeV DM mass in the W^{+}W^{-} annihilation channel, and 1.2×10^{-26} cm^{3} s^{-1} for 0.7 TeV DM mass in the τ^{+}τ^{-} annihilation channel. With the H.E.S.S. Inner Galaxy Survey, ground-based γ-ray observations thus probe ⟨σv⟩ values expected from thermal-relic annihilating TeV DM particles.

Abstract
Significant quantities of radionuclides were released into the environment due to the 2011 TEPCO's FDNPS accident. Radiocaesium is the most important radionuclide for assessment of radiation dose, and small amounts of 90Sr and very long-lived radionuclide of 129I were also released into the environment. Spinach, potato and brown rice were collected from Fukushima, neighboring prefectures and reference areas of negligible deposition in 2018 and 2019. The activity concentration of 137Cs in crops in Hamadori (coastal side) was relatively higher than other areas. The activity concentration of 90Sr in the crops showed a similar range among four areas in Fukushima, and they were similar level of those collected throughout Japan. The activity concentration of 129I in the crops collected from Hamadori was higher than other Fukushima areas. However, the activity ratio of 129I/137Cs was lower by five to seven orders of magnitude. Internal radiation doses of radiocaesium for adult males from ingestion of local crops collected from Hamadori were 0.0046 mSv, and that of 129I were 0.00000045 mSv in 2019.

Abstract
Vaccination against coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), is currently underway across countries worldwide. However, the prevalence and characteristics of prolonged adverse events lasting for several months after receiving the vaccine remain largely unknown. We herein report a 46-year-old woman with prolonged diarrhea and vomiting after receiving the BNT162b2 mRNA vaccine for COVID-19. She had no notable medical history, including that of gastrointestinal diseases. She developed vomiting several hours after receiving the first vaccine dose and further developed severe diarrhea after 7 days. Several days after the second vaccine dose, her condition deteriorated, unrelieved by symptomatic therapies, including anti-diarrheal drugs. Abdominal computed tomography (CT) revealed inflammatory changes in the entire segment of the small intestine with wall thickening. The upper and lower gastrointestinal and capsule endoscopies were unremarkable. The patient's symptoms persisted for more than 6 months after the second vaccine dose. A Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System (VAERS) database search suggested that diarrhea is observed in approximately 3% of all vaccine recipients, but a literature review indicated that prolonged gastrointestinal symptoms lasting for several months is very rare. In summary, a case of prolonged unexplained gastrointestinal symptoms, possibly based on inflammatory changes in the small intestine, is described. A literature search revealed that this type of manifestation is very rare, and further evidence is needed to determine the causality between vaccination and gastrointestinal symptoms.

Abstract
Abstract
Study question
What are the similarities and differences between the morphokinetics of abnormal, one- (1PN) and three-pronuclear (3PN) and normal bi-pronuclear (2PN) fertilisation?
Summary answer
The morphokinetic analysis of 1PN/3PN fertilisation reveals novel aspects of abnormal early development.
What is known already
Assisted reproduction technology has allowed the observation of early human development. Initially assessed statically at a single time point, fertilization has revealed its complexity once observed by Time-Lapse Microscopy (TLM). Detailed morphokinetic analysis of fertilisation has been reported in the last few years, unveiling previously unknown cytoplasmic phenomena (e.g. the cytoplasmic wave and halo) and the importance of cell symmetry for embryo development. At present, abnormal fertilization remains neglected, despite potential for understanding the physiology and pathology of early human development.
Study design, size, duration
This retrospective study involved TLM observation of normally (2PN, n = 2,685) and abnormally (1PN, n = 41; 3PN, n = 127) fertilised oocytes generated in ICSI cycles. Oocyte retrievals were carried out after the clomiphene citrate-based minimal ovarian stimulation, between October 2019 and December 2020. Oocytes of patients with different diagnoses of infertility were included in the analysis, while cases involving cryopreserved gametes or surgically retrieved sperm were excluded.
Participants/materials, setting, methods
Microinjected oocytes were assessed by a combined TLM-culture system (Embryoscope). Oocytes not suitable for TLM assessment, due to excess of residual corona cells or inadequate orientation for correct observation, were not analysed. Phenomena, relevant to meiotic resumption, pronuclear dynamics, cytoplasmic/cortical modifications, cleavage pattern, and embryo quality, were annotated and compared between groups.
Main results and the role of chance
Second polar body (PBII) extrusion was observed in all 1PN- and in a majority of 3PN-zygotes (92.1%). A 0.3-hour delay in PBII extrusion was confirmed in 3PN-zygotes (P = 0.0439). In a significant proportion of 3PN-zygotes, a third (female) PN formed from reabsorption of the PBII. The cytoplasmic wave was observed not only in 2PN- and 3PN-, but also in 1PN-zygotes. The presence and position of cytoplasmic halo were comparable among the three classes of zygotes. However, the duration of the cytoplasmic halo was prolonged in 1PN-zygotes (P < 0.0001). PN juxtaposition immediately before PN breakdown was less frequent in 3PN- compared with 2PN-zygotes (P = 0.0159). Furthermore, asynchronous PN breakdown was increased in 3PN- compared with 2PN-zygotes (P = 0.0026). The PN area of 1PN- was larger than that of 2PN-zygotes; however, the PN area of 3PN-zygotes was smaller than that of 2PN-zygotes. In 1PN-zygotes, a developmental delay was observed starting from the disappearance of the cytoplasmic halo, reaching 9 hours at the time of cleavage (P < 0.0001). A higher incidence of abnormal cleavage (P = 0.0019) and blastomere fragmentation (P < 0.0001) was observed in 1PN-zygotes. Cleavage progression was increasingly affected especially in 1PN-zygotes, resulting in blastocyst formation rates of 70.2%, 12.2% and 53.5% in 2PN-, 1PN- and 3PN-zygotes, respectively (P < 0.0001).
Limitations, reasons for caution
The study data derive from treatments carried out in a single centre. The study findings therefore require independent verification from other research groups.
Wider implications of the findings
These observations suggest that 1PN and 3PN fertilisation follow the general pattern of normal fertilization. Crucially, they also shed light on diverse and previously undescribed phenomena - e.g. reabsorption of the PBII in 3PN zygotes - underpinning the origins of abnormal fertilization and potentially clinically relevant.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Prognosis of advanced gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GIST) refractory to tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) is poor. This randomized, placebo-controlled, phase 3 trial evaluated the efficacy and safety of pimitespib, a novel heat shock protein 90 inhibitor, in advanced GIST refractory to standard TKIs. PATIENTS AND METHODS Patients with histologically confirmed GIST refractory to imatinib, sunitinib, and regorafenib were randomized 2:1 to oral pimitespib 160 mg/day or placebo for five consecutive days per week in 21-day cycles. Following disease progression by blinded central radiological review (BCRR), crossover to open-label pimitespib was permitted. The primary endpoint was progression-free survival (PFS) by BCRR in the full analysis set. Secondary endpoints included overall survival (OS) adjusted using the rank preserving structural failure time method to reduce the expected confounding impact of crossover. RESULTS From Oct 31, 2018 to Apr 30, 2020, 86 patients were randomized to pimitespib (n=58) or placebo (n=28). Median PFS was 2.8 months (95% CI 1.6-2.9) with pimitespib versus 1.4 months (0.9-1.8) with placebo (hazard ratio [HR] 0.51 [95% CI 0.30-0.87]; one-sided p=0.006). Pimitespib showed an improvement in crossover-adjusted OS compared with placebo (HR 0.42 [0.21-0.85], one-sided p=0.007). Seventeen (60.7%) patients receiving placebo crossed-over to pimitespib; median PFS after crossover was 2.7 (95% CI 0.7-4.1) months. The most common (≥30%) treatment-related adverse events (AEs) with pimitespib were diarrhea (74.1%) and decreased appetite (31.0%); the most common (≥10%) grade ≥3 treatment-related AE was diarrhea (13.8%). Treatment-related AEs leading to pimitespib discontinuation occurred in 3 (5.2%) patients. CONCLUSION Pimitespib significantly improved PFS and crossover-adjusted OS compared with placebo and had an acceptable safety profile in patients with advanced GIST refractory to standard TKIs.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Some patients with intellectual disabilities (ID) are prescribed antipsychotic drugs for symptomatic treatment of behavioural disorders. Nevertheless, it can still prove difficult to perform dental treatments safely for some patients with ID. In such cases, treatment under intravenous sedation (IVS) is one option. Sedative, hypnotic and α-blocking effects of antipsychotic drugs may cause adverse events, such as severe hypotension, among patients who take antipsychotic drugs regularly. This study aimed to investigate the effects of oral antipsychotic medication on cardiovascular function during IVS. Accordingly, we compared mean blood pressure (MBP) and heart rate (HR) between patients who regularly take antipsychotic drugs and patients who do not. METHODS Thirty-seven patients with ID were enrolled in this study. All participants were outpatients of Special Care Dentistry of general hospital and received dental treatment under IVS performed with a combination of midazolam and propofol. Eighteen patients regularly took antipsychotics (medication group), and 19 patients were not currently taking antipsychotics (non-medication group). MBP, HR, dose, and effect-site concentration of intravenous sedative medications were measured at three points: 'before IVS', 'at optimal sedation', and 'during dental treatment'. RESULTS The magnitude of reduction of MBP was significantly smaller in the medication group than in the non-medication group (P < 0.023). However, there were no differences in MBP, HR, dose, and effect-site concentration of midazolam and propofol between groups at any point. CONCLUSION These results suggest that antipsychotic medication may not have clinically significant adverse effects on cardiovascular fluctuations during dental treatment under IVS for persons with ID.

Abstract
Circulating microRNAs (miRNAs) have been used as biomarkers for various diseases and physiological conditions in humans and mice; studies in domestic animals, particularly cattle, are limited. The importance of early pregnancy diagnosis (especially within the 21-d cow estrous cycle) in the livestock industry is extremely high. This study compared the circulating miRNAs in bred non-pregnant and pregnant Japanese Black cows, explored miRNAs as biomarkers for early pregnancy diagnosis, and established a measurement system that included selecting an appropriate reference miRNA and determining the effect of hemolysis on miRNA quantification in plasma. miRNA was extracted from the plasma of Japanese Black cows on day 21 after artificial insemination and subjected to a customized bovine oligonucleotide microarray for expression analysis. Differentially expressed miRNAs and reference miRNA candidates were selected and validated using reverse transcription-quantitative PCR (RT-qPCR). An appropriate endogenous reference miRNA for normalization was selected using NormFinder software. To evaluate the effect of hemolysis on miRNA quantification, hemolyzed samples were prepared using plasma from four cows in the estrous cycle and subjected to RT-qPCR. A total of 124 miRNAs were detected in bovine plasma by microarray analysis in bred non-pregnant and pregnant cows. The levels of five circulating miRNAs were significantly higher in pregnant cows than in bred non-pregnant cows, and 24 miRNAs were detected only in the pregnant group. NormFinder analysis and RT-qPCR validation showed that miR-2455 was an appropriate reference miRNA in the plasma of bred non-pregnant and pregnant Japanese Black cows, and miR-19b, miR-25, miR-29a, and miR-148a were significantly higher in the pregnant group. These four circulating miRNAs did not change during the estrous cycle and were less affected by hemolysis. In the current study, we found four miRNAs, miR-19b, miR-25, miR-29a, and miR-148a, which were present at high levels in the plasma of pregnant Japanese Black cows. Since these miRNAs are less affected by hemolysis, they may potentially be used as biomarkers for early pregnancy diagnosis in cattle.

Abstract
Recurrent novae are repeating thermonuclear explosions in the outer layers of white dwarfs, due to the accretion of fresh material from a binary companion. The shock generated when ejected material slams into the companion star's wind can accelerate particles. We report very-high-energy (VHE, [Formula: see text]) gamma rays from the recurrent nova RS Ophiuchi, up to a month after its 2021 outburst, observed using the High Energy Stereoscopic System. The VHE emission has a similar temporal profile to lower-energy GeV emission, indicating a common origin, with a two-day delay in peak flux. These observations constrain models of time-dependent particle energization, favoring a hadronic emission scenario over the leptonic alternative. Shocks in dense winds provide favorable environments for efficient acceleration of cosmic-rays to very high energies.

Abstract
The Hayabusa2 spacecraft investigated the C-type (carbonaceous) asteroid (162173) Ryugu. The mission performed two landing operations to collect samples of surface and subsurface material, the latter exposed by an artificial impact. We present images of the second touchdown site, finding that ejecta from the impact crater was present at the sample location. Surface pebbles at both landing sites show morphological variations ranging from rugged to smooth, similar to Ryugu's boulders, and shapes from quasi-spherical to flattened. The samples were returned to Earth on 6 December 2020. We describe the morphology of >5 grams of returned pebbles and sand. Their diverse color, shape, and structure are consistent with the observed materials of Ryugu; we conclude that they are a representative sample of the asteroid.

Abstract
The differential cross sections of the Σ^{-}p→Λn reaction were measured accurately for the Σ^{-} momentum (p_{Σ}) ranging from 470 to 650 MeV/c at the J-PARC Hadron Experimental Facility. Precise angular information about the Σ^{-}p→Λn reaction was obtained for the first time by detecting approximately 100 reaction events at each angular step of Δcosθ=0.1. The obtained differential cross sections show a slightly forward-peaking structure in the measured momentum regions. The cross sections integrated for -0.7≤cosθ≤1.0 were obtained as 22.5±0.68 [statistical error(stat.)] ±0.65 [systematic error(syst.)] mb and 15.8±0.83(stat)±0.52(syst) mb for 470<p_{Σ}(MeV/c)<550 and 550<p_{Σ}(MeV/c)<650, respectively. These results show a drastic improvement compared with past measurements of the hyperon-proton scattering experiments. They will play essential roles in updating the theoretical models of the baryon-baryon interactions.

Background
In patients with sludge or severe spontaneous echo contrast (SEC) in the left atrial appendage (LAA), isoproterenol loading transesophageal echocardiography (ISP-TEE) has been reported to check the presence of thrombus in the LAA, as the sludge or severe SEC disappears (Figure 1).
Purpose
The aim of this study was to assess the safety of ISP-TEE for the identification of LAA thrombus and the hemodynamic changes in the LAA caused by ISP loading.
Methods
We prospectively enrolled 25 patients with atrial fibrillation (AF) and sludge or SEC in the LAA who underwent ISP-TEE from April 2020 to July 2021. ISP was administered intravenously to achieve the target heart rate (HR) defined as follows: Max HR [beats per minutes: bpm] = 220 – age (years), Target HR [bpm] = Max HR × 0.8. Patients with tachycardia exceeding Max HR before ISP administration, hemodynamic instability, and other contraindications to ISP were excluded from the study. To assess the safety of ISP-TEE, we evaluated patients’ condition, changes in systolic blood pressure (sBP) and HR before and after ISP loading. We also assessed the presence or absence of worsening heart failure, new arrhythmias other than atrial fibrillation, and cerebral infarction or transient ischemic attack during the examination, and after 24 hours. Hemodynamic evaluation was performed using LAA blood flow velocity, LAA tissue Doppler imaging (TDI) velocity, and LAA volume fraction (LAAVF) defined as follows: LAAVF (%) = (Max LAA volume – Min LAA volume) / Max LAA volume × 100. Quantification of LAA volume was performed using the stacked-contour method of a 3-dimensional TEE full-volume acquisition.
Results
Among 25 patients, 13 patients had sludge or grade3 SEC, 7 patients had grade2 SEC, 5 patients had grade1 SEC. HR after ISP loading was significantly higher than before loading, but sBP did not change significantly before and after ISP loading. No complications due to ISP loading were observed during examination and after 24 hours. After ISP loading, there were 18 patients with grade 1 SEC or no SEC (classified as Group1), 7 patients had residual sludge or grade 2 to 3 SEC (classified as Group2). The differences in LAA blood flow velocity between before and after ISP loading was faster in Group1 than in Group2: 13.0 ± 10.5 vs 2.6 ± 4.2. p = 0.019. The differences in TDI velocity was also faster in Group1 than in Group2: 1.46 ± 1.14 vs 0.19 ± 0.50, p = 0.010. The differences in LAAVF was higher in Group1 than in Group2: 13.7 ± 10.3 vs 2.2 ± 2.0, p = 0.009.
Conclusions
In our study, no complications were observed in ISP-TEE for the identification of LAA thrombus. Patients with grade 1 SEC or no SEC, the LAA function was increased by ISP loading. These results may provide insights into the mechanisms of ISP loading on SEC in the LAA. Abstract Figure.

Abstract
X-ray spectroscopy of hadronic atoms is a powerful method to study strong interaction between hadrons and nuclei. At J-PARC, we have conducted two experiments, J-PARC E07 and E03, for hadronic atoms with a doubly strange hyperon, Ξ−, aiming at the world-first detection of their X-rays. The first measurement is performed as a byproduct of J-PARC E07 experiment with the hybrid emulsion technique. The second one, J-PARC E03, is a dedicated experiment for detection of Ξ− Fe atom X rays. The preliminary results and the present status of E07 and E03 are shown in this article. Future prospects of Ξ−-atomic X-ray spectroscopy are also discussed. A new measurement has been proposed for detecting Ξ− C atom X rays, where a novel Ξ− tracking method will be applied to realize an improved signal to noise ratio.

Abstract
Besides preventing exertional heat illness, muscle cooling can be a potential strategy to enhance exercise-training induced adaptations. This study aimed to examine the effects of post-exercise cooling on the mRNA expression of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma coactivator 1-alpha (PGC-1α) and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) in Thoroughbred skeletal muscle. Five Thoroughbred horses performed treadmill running until their pulmonary artery temperature reached 42 °C, followed by walking on the treadmill with no additional cooling (CONT) or muscle cooling with a shower using the tap water (26 °C, 0.4 l/s; COOL), for 30 min. Muscle biopsies were obtained before (PRE) and 3 h after exercise (3 Hr-REC) from the gluteus medius muscle. PGC-1α mRNA expression was elevated 3 h after exercise in both the CONT (PRE vs 3 Hr-REC: 1.0±0.1 vs 5.0±0.8, P<0.01) and COOL (PRE vs 3 Hr-REC: 1.1±0.3 vs 6.6±0.9, P<0.01) conditions; however, there was no difference between the two conditions at 3 h after exercise (P=0.17). VEGF mRNA expression was elevated 3 h after exercise in COOL (PRE vs 3 Hr-REC: 1.0±0.2 vs 2.2±0.2, P<0.05) but not in CONT (PRE vs 3 Hr-REC: 1.0±0.1 vs 1.8±0.3, P=0.08). VEGF mRNA expression at 3 h after exercise was significantly negatively correlated with rectal temperature at the end of the 30-min cooling period (r = -0.65, P<0.05). Our results suggest that the decline in body temperature after exercise may lead to greater expression of the key angiogenic gene in Thoroughbred horses.

Abstract
J-PARC E70 experiment measures the missing-mass of Ξ hypernuclei (12ΞBe) in Hadron Experimental Facility at J-PARC. We aim to reach the best missing-mass resolution of 2 MeV/c2 in FWHM with a new magnetic spectrometer S-2S. The high-resolution spectroscopy of Ξ hypernuclei will play an important role to understand the unknown ΞN interaction. The experiment will start at the beginning of 2023. This article presents the preparation status.
