Abstract
Familial adenomatous polyposis (FAP) is caused by pathogenic variants of the APC gene on the long arm of chromosome 5. An analysis showed an association between germline APC gene variants and clinical signs of FAP; however, attenuated FAP has also been reported in cases with pathogenic variants. In contrast, a phenotype of FAP with no APC germline pathogenic variant and with few signs has been reported. We herein report a 16-year-old girl in whom the presence of multiple large bowel cancers from a young age and several small bowel cancers reflected a carcinogenic tendency higher than that typical for FAP.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Comprehensive genome profiling (CGP) serves as a guide for suitable genomically matched therapies for patients with cancer. However, little is known about the impact of the timing and types of cancer on the therapeutic benefit of CGP. MATERIALS AND METHODS A single hospital-based pan-cancer prospective study (TOP-GEAR; UMIN000011141) was conducted to examine the benefit of CGP with respect to the timing and types of cancer. Patients with advanced solid tumors (>30 types) who either progressed with or without standard treatments were genotyped using a single CGP test. The subjects were followed up for a median duration of 590 days to examine therapeutic response, using progression-free survival (PFS), PFS ratio, and factors associated with therapeutic response. RESULTS Among the 507 patients, 62 (12.2%) received matched therapies with an overall response rate (ORR) of 32.3%. The PFS ratios (≥1.3) were observed in 46.3% (19/41) of the evaluated patients. The proportion of subjects receiving such therapies in the rare cancer cohort was lower than that in the non-rare cancer cohort (9.6% and 17.4%, respectively; P = 0.010). However, ORR of the rare cancer patients was higher than that in the non-rare cancer cohort (43.8% and 20.0%, respectively; P = 0.046). Moreover, ORR of matched therapies in the first or second line after receiving the CGP test was higher than that in the third or later lines (62.5% and 21.7%, respectively; P = 0.003). Rare cancer and early-line treatment were significantly and independently associated with ORR of matched therapies in multivariable analysis (P = 0.017 and 0.004, respectively). CONCLUSION Patients with rare cancer preferentially benefited from tumor mutation profiling by increasing the chances of therapeutic response to matched therapies. Early-line treatments after profiling increase the therapeutic benefit, irrespective of tumor types.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Thousands of units of whole blood (WB) and blood components are transfused daily to treat trauma patients. Improved methods for blood storage are critical to support trauma-related care. The Hemanext ONE® system offers a unique method for hypoxic storage of WB, with successfully demonstrated storage of clinically viable RBCs. This work evaluated the system for the storage of WB, focusing on platelet health and function. STUDY DESIGN AND METHODS WB was collected from healthy donors and processed through the Hemanext ONE® system. Hemoglobin oxygen saturation (HbSO2) levels of WB were depleted to 10%, 20%, or 30% of total HbSO2 and then stored in PVC bags sealed in oxygen-impermeable bags (except for normoxic control) with samples collected on days 1, 7, and 14 post-processing. Flow cytometry assessed the activation and apoptosis of platelets. Clot dynamics were assessed based on aggregometry and thromboelastography assays, as well as thrombin generation using a calibrated-automated thrombogram method. RESULTS Hypoxic storage conditions were maintained throughout the storage period. Hypoxia triggered increased lactate production, but pH changes were negligible compared to normoxic control. Storage at 10% HbSO2 had a significant impact on platelet function, resulting in increased activation and reduced clot formation and aggregation. These effects were less significant at 20% and 30% HbSO2. DISCUSSION This study indicates that platelets are sensitive to hypoxic storage and suffer significant metabolic and functional deterioration when stored at or below 10% HbSO2.

Abstract
We searched for antideuterons (d[over ¯]'s) in the 4.7×10^{9} cosmic-ray events observed during the BESS-Polar II flight at solar minimum in 2007-2008 but found no candidates. The resulting 95% C.L. upper limit on the d[over ¯] flux is 6.7×10^{-5} (m^{2} s sr GeV/n)^{-1} in an energy range from 0.163 to 1.100 GeV/n. The result has improved by more than a factor of 14 from the upper limit of BESS97, which had a potential comparable to that of BESS-Polar II in the search for cosmic-origin d[over ¯]'s and was conducted during the former solar minimum. The upper limit of d[over ¯] flux from BESS-Polar II is the first result achieving the sensitivity to constrain the latest theoretical predictions.

Abstract
Overcoming resistance to immune checkpoint inhibitors is an important issue in patients with non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Transcriptome analysis shows that adenocarcinoma can be divided into three molecular subtypes: terminal respiratory unit (TRU), proximal proliferative (PP), and proximal inflammatory (PI), and squamous cell carcinoma (LUSQ) into four. However, the immunological characteristics of these subtypes are not fully understood. In this study, we investigated the immune landscape of NSCLC tissues in molecular subtypes using a multi-omics dataset, including tumor-infiltrating leukocytes (TILs) analyzed using flow cytometry, RNA sequences, whole exome sequences, metabolomic analysis, and clinicopathologic findings. In the PI subtype, the number of TILs increased and the immune response in the tumor microenvironment (TME) was activated, as indicated by high levels of tertiary lymphoid structures, and high cytotoxic marker levels. Patient prognosis was worse in the PP subtype than in other adenocarcinoma subtypes. Glucose transporter 1 (GLUT1) expression levels were upregulated and lactate accumulated in the TME of the PP subtype. This could lead to the formation of an immunosuppressive TME, including the inactivation of antigen-presenting cells. The TRU subtype had low biological malignancy and "cold" tumor-immune phenotypes. Squamous cell carcinoma (LUSQ) did not show distinct immunological characteristics in its respective subtypes. Elucidation of the immune characteristics of molecular subtypes could lead to the development of personalized immune therapy for lung cancer. Immune checkpoint inhibitors could be an effective treatment for the PI subtype. Glycolysis is a potential target for converting an immunosuppressive TME into an antitumorigenic TME in the PP subtype.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Myostatin, which is known as a negative skeleton muscle regulator, is associated with mortality in maintenance hemodialysis patients. However, the significance of serum myostatin concentrations at dialysis initiation has not been established. We investigated the relation between serum myostatin concentrations and mortality or hospitalization within one year in incident dialysis patients. METHODS After a patient initiating hemodialysis or peritoneal dialysis during 2016-2018 was enrolled, the patient's serum myostatin at dialysis initiation was measured. Composite outcomes comprising mortality and hospitalization within 1 year after dialysis initiation were compared between two groups divided according to myostatin levels. The Cox proportional hazards model was used to assess significant relations between myostatin and outcomes. RESULTS This study examined 104 incident dialysis patients with mean age of 65.5±14.0 (68% male). Kaplan-Meier analyses indicated the 1-year hospitalization-free and survival rate as significantly lower in the lower myostatin group than in the higher myostatin group (p = .0020). Cox proportional hazards regression analyses revealed that the value of myostatin logarithm at dialysis initiation was inversely associated with the occurrence of a composite outcome, independently of age (hazard ratio 0.16, 95% confidence interval 0.05-0.57). Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) analysis showed the area under the curve of serum myostatin for predicting death or hospitalization within 1 year as higher than those of clinical indices of nutritional disturbance and frailty. CONCLUSION Serum myostatin concentration at dialysis initiation is inversely associated with adverse outcomes in these dialysis-initiated patients.

Abstract
Extramammary Paget's disease (EMPD) is an intraepithelial adenocarcinoma that primarily affects the genital and axillary areas in elderly individuals. A limited number of paired familial EMPD cases (i.e., parent-offspring, siblings) have been reported, whereas the genetics of these cases have not yet been adequately studied. We report the first familial case of EMPD involving three affected siblings. The tumour-only multi-gene panel testing using surgical specimens revealed a heterozygous c.2997A>C (p.Glu999Asp) nonsynonymous variant in the proto-oncogene MET (NM_000245.4) in the three affected siblings. The germline multi-gene panel testing using peripheral blood lymphocytes revealed the same missense MET variant in all five family members, including the two asymptomatic offspring (51 and 37 years of age). The MET variant we identified could be involved in EMPD carcinogenesis. Further genomic analyses of familial cases of EMPD are warranted to validate the pathogenic relevance of MET variants in EMPD development.

Abstract
AIM The aim of this study was to clarify the significance of DNA methylation alterations of cryptogenic hepatocellular carcinomas (HCCs). METHODS Using the Infinium assay, we performed genome-wide DNA methylation analysis of 250 liver tissue samples, including noncancerous liver tissue (U-N) and corresponding cancerous tissue (U-T) from patients with cryptogenic HCC without a history of excessive alcohol use and hepatitis virus infection, and whose U-N samples showed no remarkable histological features (no microscopic evidence of simple steatosis, any form of hepatitis including nonalcoholic steatohepatitis, or liver cirrhosis). RESULTS We identified 3272 probes that showed significant differences of DNA methylation levels between U-N and normal liver tissue samples from patients without HCC, indicating that a distinct DNA methylation profile had already been established at the precancerous U-N stage. U-Ns have a DNA methylation profile differing from that of noncancerous liver tissue of patients with nonalcoholic steatohepatitis-related, viral hepatitis-related, and alcoholic liver disease-related HCCs. Such DNA methylation alterations in U-Ns were inherited by U-Ts. The U-Ns showed DNA methylation alteration of ADCY5, resulting in alteration of its mRNA expression, whereas noncancerous liver tissue of patients with nonalcoholic steatohepatitis-, viral hepatitis-, or alcoholic liver disease-related HCCs did not. DNA methylation levels of MICAL2 and PLEKHG2 in U-Ts were correlated with larger tumor diameter and portal vein involvement, respectively. CONCLUSIONS U-N-specific DNA hypermethylation of ADCY5 may have significance, even from the precancerous stage in liver showing no remarkable histological features. DNA hypomethylation of MICAL2 and PLEKHG2 may determine the clinicopathological features of cryptogenic HCC.

Abstract
Ovarian cancer follows a characteristic progression pattern, forming multiple tumor masses enriched with cancer stem cells (CSCs) within the abdomen. Most patients develop resistance to standard platinum-based drugs, necessitating better treatment approaches. Targeting CSCs by inhibiting NAD+ synthesis has been previously explored. Nicotinamide phosphoribosyltransferase (NAMPT), which is the rate limiting enzyme in the salvage pathway for NAD+ synthesis is an attractive drug target in this pathway. KPT-9274 is an innovative drug targeting both NAMPT and p21 activated kinase 4 (PAK4). However, its effectiveness against ovarian cancer has not been validated. Here, we show the efficacy and mechanisms of KPT-9274 in treating 3D-cultured spheroids that are resistant to platinum-based drugs. In these spheroids, KPT-9274 not only inhibited NAD+ production in NAMPT-dependent cell lines, but also suppressed NADPH and ATP production, indicating reduced mitochondrial function. It also downregulated of inflammation and DNA repair-related genes. Moreover, the compound reduced PAK4 activity by altering its mostly cytoplasmic localization, leading to NAD+-dependent decreases in phosphorylation of S6 Ribosomal protein, AKT, and β-Catenin in the cytoplasm. These findings suggest that KPT-9274 could be a promising treatment for ovarian cancer patients who are resistant to platinum drugs, emphasizing the need for precision medicine to identify the specific NAD+ producing pathway that a tumor relies upon before treatment.

Abstract
Innovations in sequencing technology have led to the discovery of novel mutations that cause inherited diseases. However, many patients with suspected genetic diseases remain undiagnosed. Long-read sequencing technologies are expected to significantly improve the diagnostic rate by overcoming the limitations of short-read sequencing. In addition, Oxford Nanopore Technologies (ONT) offers adaptive sampling and computationally driven target enrichment technology. This enables more affordable intensive analysis of target gene regions compared to standard non-selective long-read sequencing. In this study, we developed an efficient computational workflow for target adaptive sampling long-read sequencing (TAS-LRS) and evaluated it through application to 33 genomes collected from suspected hereditary cancer patients. Our workflow can identify single nucleotide variants with nearly the same accuracy as the short-read platform and elucidate complex forms of structural variations. We also newly identified several SINE-R/VNTR/Alu (SVA) elements affecting the APC gene in two patients with familial adenomatous polyposis, as well as their sites of origin. In addition, we demonstrated that off-target reads from adaptive sampling, which is typically discarded, can be effectively used to accurately genotype common single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) across the entire genome, enabling the calculation of a polygenic risk score. Furthermore, we identified allele-specific MLH1 promoter hypermethylation in a Lynch syndrome patient. In summary, our workflow with TAS-LRS can simultaneously capture monogenic risk variants including complex structural variations, polygenic background as well as epigenetic alterations, and will be an efficient platform for genetic disease research and diagnosis.

Abstract
Unexpected filter clotting is a major problem in continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT). Reduced solute clearance is observed prior to filter clotting. This single-center, retrospective, observational study aimed to determine whether reduced solute clearance of low- and medium-molecular-weight molecules in CRRT can predict filter clotting. Solute clearances of urea and myoglobin (Mb) were measured at 24 h after initiation of continuous hemodiafiltration (CHDF). Clearance per flow (CL/F) was calculated. The primary outcome was clotting of the filter in the subsequent 24 h, and 775 CHDF treatments conducted on 230 patients for at least 24 consecutive hours in our ICU were analyzed. Filter clotting was observed in 127 treatments involving 39 patients. Urea and Mb CL/F at 24 h were significantly lower in the patients who experienced clotting. Further analysis was limited to the first CHDF treatment of each patient to adjust for confounding factors. Multivariate logistic regression analysis revealed that both urea CL/F < 94% and Mb CL/F < 64% were significant predictors of clotting within the next 24 h. Lower urea and Mb CL/F measured at 24 h after CRRT initiation were associated with filter clotting in the next 24 h. Further study is necessary to ascertain whether measurement of urea and MB CL/F will help with avoiding unexpected filter clotting.

Abstract
Familial adenomatous polyposis (FAP) patients develop various life-threatening extracolonic comorbidities that appear individually or within a family. This diversity can be explained by the localization of the adenomatous polyposis coli (APC) variant, but few reports provide definitive findings about genotype-phenotype correlations. Therefore, we investigated FAP patients and the association between the severe phenotypes and APC variants. Of 247 FAP patients, 126 patients from 85 families identified to have APC germline variant sites were extracted. These sites were divided into six groups (Regions A to F), and the frequency of severe comorbidities was compared among the patient phenotypes. Of the 126 patients, the proportions of patients with desmoid tumor stage ≥III, number of FGPs ≥1000, multiple gastric neoplasms, gastric neoplasm with high-grade dysplasia, and Spigelman stage ≥III were 3%, 16%, 21%, 12%, and 41%, respectively, while the corresponding rates were 30%, 50%, 70%, 50%, and 80% in patients with Region E (codons 1398-1580) variants. These latter rates were significantly higher than those for patients with variants in other regions. Moreover, the proportion of patients with all three indicators (desmoid tumor stage ≥III, number of FGPs ≥1000, and Spigelman stage ≥III) was 20% for those with variants in Region E and 0% for those with variants in other regions. Variants in Region E indicate aggressive phenotypes, and more intensive management is required.

Abstract
BACKGROUND There has been increasing interest into the role of germline BRCA1/2 pathogenic variants (gBRCA PV) and gATM PV and likely PV (PV and LPV; PV + LPV) in the carcinogenesis and treatment of pancreatic cancer (PC), but the clinical features have not been well described. METHODS Patients with confirmed gBRCA PV and gATM PV + LPV PC treated at our hospital between April 2016 and December 2021, were retrospectively evaluated for clinical characteristics and outcomes. RESULTS Twenty-two patients harbored gBRCA PV and three patients harbored gATM PV + LPV. Of the gBRCA PV patients, 81.8 % received platinum-based chemotherapy with favorable treatment outcomes with an objective response rate of 50.0 % (95 % CI: 23.0-77.0), median progression free survival (PFS) of 334 days, and median overall survival (OS) of 926 days from the initiation of first-line chemotherapy. The annual number of patients with gBRCA PV was two patients per year before January 2021 (when BRACAnalysis became available in Japan), and ten patients during the 10 months thereafter. Four patients (20 %) with gBRCA PV developed soft-tissue metastasis with progression. Two patients with gATM PV + LPV received platinum-based chemotherapy and the best response of those patients was partial response and stable disease and their OS from the initiation of first-line chemotherapy was 1192 and 989 days, and PFS was 579 and 140 days, respectively. CONCLUSION The diagnosis of gBRCA PV-positive PC has increased revealed in recent years. These tumors appear to be sensitive to platinum-based chemotherapy, with long term survival observed in gATM PV + LPV-positive patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Patients with familial adenomatous polyposis (FAP) have a lifetime risk of developing duodenal adenomas approaching 100%, and the relative risk for duodenal cancer compared with the general population is high. We conducted a retrospective study to investigate the progression of non-ampullary duodenal adenomas (NADAs) and risk factors for advanced lesions in patients with FAP. METHODS Of 248 patients with 139 pedigrees at 2 institutes, we assessed 151 patients with 100 pedigrees with a pathogenic germline variant in the adenomatous polyposis coli gene, excluding mosaic variants. We evaluated the prevalence of NADAs in patients with FAP, the progression of these adenomas to advanced adenoma during the observation period, and the risk factors for the lifetime development of high-grade dysplasia (HGD), large (≥ 10 mm) duodenal adenomas, and Spiegelman stage IV. RESULTS During the median observation period of 7 years, the incidences of patients with NADAs, with more than 20 polyps, with polyps ≥ 10 mm, with HGD, and with stage IV at the last esophagogastroduodenoscopy were increased 1.6-fold, 1.7-fold, 5-fold, 22-fold, and 9-fold, respectively. Intramucosal cancer occurred in three patients (2%), but no patients developed invasive cancer during the observation period because we performed endoscopic intervention for advanced adenomas. Stage progression was observed in 71% of 113 patients. Stage IV was more common in women, patients with a history of colectomy, and those with a 3' side mutation in their adenomatous polyposis coli gene. CONCLUSIONS NADAs in patients with FAP frequently become exacerbated. Our findings suggest that patients with FAP who develop duodenal adenomas should be surveyed to prevent the development of duodenal cancer.

Abstract
Hyponatremia and salt wasting is a common occurance in patients with HIV/AIDS, however, the understanding of its contributing factors is limited. HIV viral protein R (Vpr) contributes to HIV-associated nephropathy. To investigate the effects of Vpr on the expression level of the Slc12a3 gene, encoding the Na-Cl cotransporter, which is responsible for sodium reabsorption in distal nephron segments, we performed single-nucleus RNA sequencing of kidney cortices from three wild-type (WT) and three Vpr-transgenic (Vpr Tg) mice. The results showed that the percentage of distal convoluted tubule (DCT) cells was significantly lower in Vpr Tg mice compared with WT mice (P < 0.05), and that in Vpr Tg mice, Slc12a3 expression was not different in DCT cell cluster. The Pvalb + DCT1 subcluster had fewer cells in Vpr Tg mice compared with WT (P < 0.01). Immunohistochemistry demonstrated fewer Slc12a3 + Pvalb + DCT1 segments in Vpr Tg mice. Differential gene expression analysis comparing Vpr Tg and WT in the DCT cluster showed Ier3 , an inhibitor of apoptosis, to be the most downregulated gene. These observations demonstrate that the salt-wasting effect of Vpr in Vpr Tg mice is mediated by loss of Slc12a3 + Pvalb + DCT1 segments via apoptosis dysregulation.

Abstract
Background Pregnancy complications are risk factors for cardiovascular disease (CVD). Little is known about the role of renal biomarkers measured shortly after delivery, individually or in combination with pregnancy complications, in predicting subsequent severe maternal CVD. Methods and Results This study included 566 mothers of diverse races and ethnicities from the Boston Birth cohort, enrolled at delivery and followed prospectively. Plasma creatinine and CysC (cystatin C) were measured 1 to 3 days after delivery. CVD during follow-up was defined by physician diagnoses in electronic medical records. Associations of renal biomarkers and pregnancy complications with time-to-CVD events were assessed using Cox proportional hazards models. During an average of 10.3±3.2 years of follow-up, 30 mothers developed 1 or more CVDs. Only a modest association was observed between creatinine and risk of CVD. In comparison, we found that per 0.1 mg/L increase of CysC was associated with a hazard ratio (HR) of 1.2 (95% CI, 1.1-1.4) for CVD after adjusting for covariates. Compared with those without preeclampsia and with normal CysC level (≤75th percentile), mothers with preeclampsia and elevated CysC (>75th percentile) had the highest risk of CVD (HR, 4.6 [95% CI, 1.7-17.7]), whereas mothers with preeclampsia only or with elevated CysC only did not have significantly increased CVD risk. Similar synergistic effects for CVD were observed between CysC and preterm delivery. Conclusions In this sample of US, traditionally underrepresented multiracial and multiethnic high-risk mothers, elevated maternal plasma CysC, independently and jointly with pregnancy complications, increased risk of CVD later in life. These findings warrant further investigation. Registration URL: https://www.clinicaltrials.gov; Unique identifier: NCT03228875.

Abstract
BACKGROUND This study aimed to identify patients with upper urinary tract urothelial carcinoma (UTUC) having potential Lynch syndrome (pLS) by immunohistochemistry (IHC) of DNA mismatch repair gene-related proteins (MMRPs) and Amsterdam criteria II and explore their clinical characteristics. METHODS We retrospectively collected the clinical data of 150 consecutive patients with UTUC who underwent surgical resection at our institution between February 2012 and December 2020, and immunohistochemistry (IHC) of four MMRPs (MLH1, MSH2, MSH6, and PMS2) on all UTUC specimens was performed. Patients who tested positive for Amsterdam criteria (AMS) II and/or IHC screening were classified as having pLS and others as non-pLS, and their characteristics were explored. RESULTS In this study, 5 (3%) and 6 (4%) patients were positive for AMS II and IHC screening, respectively. Two patient were positive for both AMS II and IHC screening, resulting in 9 (6%) patients with pLS. The pLS group was predominantly female (67% vs. 36%; p = 0.0093) and had more right-sided tumors (100% vs. 43%; p = 0.0009) than the non-pLS group. Of the 6 patients who were positive for IHC screening, 4 showed a combined loss of MSH2/MSH6 (n = 3) and MLH1/PMS2 (n = 1). Other two patients showed single loss of MSH6 and PSM2. CONCLUSIONS AMS II and IHC screening identified pLS in 6% of patients with UTUC. The IHC screening-positive group tends to have relatively high rate of combined loss, but some patients have single loss. AMS II may overlook patients with LS, and a universal screening may be required for patients with UTUC as well as those with colorectal and endometrial cancer.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Severe acute kidney injury (AKI) requiring renal replacement therapy (RRT) has been associated with an unacceptably high mortality of 50% or more. Successful discontinuation of RRT is thought to be linked to better outcomes. Although functional and structural renal markers have been evaluated in AKI, little is known about their roles in predicting outcomes at the time of RRT discontinuation. METHODS In this prospective single-center cohort study, we analyzed patients who received continuous RRT (CRRT) for AKI between August 2016 and March 2018 in the intensive care unit of the University of Tokyo Hospital (Tokyo, Japan). Clinical parameters and urine samples were obtained at CRRT discontinuation. Successful CRRT discontinuation was defined as neither resuming CRRT for 48 h nor receiving intermittent hemodialysis for 7 days from the CRRT termination. Major adverse kidney events (MAKEs) were defined as death, requirement for dialysis, or a decrease in the estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) of more than 25% from the baseline at day 90. RESULTS Of 73 patients, who received CRRT for AKI, 59 successfully discontinued CRRT and 14 could not. Kinetic eGFR, urine volume, urinary neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (NGAL), and urinary L-type fatty acid binding protein were predictive for CRRT discontinuation. Of these factors, urine volume had the highest area under the curve (AUC) 0.91 with 95% confidence interval [0.80-0.96] for successful CRRT discontinuation. For predicting MAKEs at day 90, the urinary NGAL showed the highest AUC 0.76 [0.62-0.86], whereas kinetic eGFR and urine volume failed to show statistical significance (AUC 0.49 [0.35-0.63] and AUC 0.59 [0.44-0.73], respectively). CONCLUSIONS Our prospective study confirmed that urine volume, a functional renal marker, predicted successful discontinuation of RRT and that urinary NGAL, a structural renal marker, predicted long-term renal outcomes. These observations suggest that the functional and structural renal makers play different roles in predicting the outcomes of severe AKI requiring RRT.

Abstract
Genetic testing of the APC gene by sequencing analysis and MLPA is available across commercial laboratories for the definitive genetic diagnosis of familial adenomatous polyposis (FAP). However, some genetic alterations are difficult to detect using conventional analyses. Here, we report a case of a complex genomic APC-TP63 rearrangement, which was identified in a patient with FAP by a series of genomic analyses, including multigene panel testing, chromosomal analyses, and long-read sequencing. A woman in her thirties was diagnosed with FAP due to multiple polyps in her colon and underwent total colectomy. Subsequent examination revealed fundic gland polyposis. No family history suggesting FAP was noted except for a first-degree relative with desmoid fibromatosis. The conventional APC gene testing was performed by her former doctor, but no pathogenic variant was detected, except for 2 variants of unknown significance. The patient was referred to our hospital for further genetic analysis. After obtaining informed consent in genetic counseling, we conducted a multigene panel analysis. As insertion of a part of the TP63 sequence was detected within exon16 of APC, further analyses, including chromosomal analysis and long-read sequencing, were performed and a complex translocation between chromosomes 3 and 5 containing several breakpoints in TP63 and APC was identified. No phenotype associated with TP63 pathogenic variants, such as split-hand/foot malformation (SHFM) or ectrodactyly, ectodermal dysplasia, or cleft lip/palate syndrome (EEC) was identified in the patient or her relatives. Multimodal genomic analyses should be considered in cases where no pathogenic germline variants are detected by conventional genetic testing despite an evident medical or family history of hereditary cancer syndromes.

Abstract
Diabetes mellitus is the leading cause of cardiovascular and renal disease in the United -States. Despite the beneficial interventions available for patients with diabetes, there remains a need for additional therapeutic targets and therapies in diabetic kidney disease (DKD). Inflammation and oxidative stress are increasingly recognized as important causes of renal diseases. Inflammation is closely associated with mitochondrial damage. The molecular connection between inflammation and mitochondrial metabolism remains to be elucidated. Recently, nicotinamide adenine nucleotide (NAD+) metabolism has been found to regulate immune function and inflammation. In the present studies, we tested the hypothesis that enhancing NAD metabolism could prevent inflammation in and progression of DKD. We found that treatment of db/db mice with type 2 diabetes with nicotinamide riboside (NR) prevented several manifestations of kidney dysfunction (i.e., albuminuria, increased urinary kidney injury marker-1 (KIM1) excretion, and pathologic changes). These effects were associated with decreased inflammation, at least in part via inhibiting the activation of the cyclic GMP-AMP synthase-stimulator of interferon genes (cGAS-STING) signaling pathway. An antagonist of the serum stimulator of interferon genes (STING) and whole-body STING deletion in diabetic mice showed similar renoprotection. Further analysis found that NR increased SIRT3 activity and improved mitochondrial function, which led to decreased mitochondrial DNA damage, a trigger for mitochondrial DNA leakage which activates the cGAS-STING pathway. Overall, these data show that NR supplementation boosted NAD metabolism to augment mitochondrial function, reducing inflammation and thereby preventing the progression of diabetic kidney disease.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Leptomeningeal metastases (LM) are devastating complications of epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR)-mutated non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Although osimertinib, a third-generation EGFR-tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI), has better penetration into the central nervous system than first-generation EGFR-TKIs, data on the distinct activity of EGFR-TKIs in untreated advanced EGFR-mutated NSCLC with LM are lacking. PATIENTS AND METHODS We retrospectively reviewed patients treated with EGFR-TKIs for TKI-untreated common EGFR-mutated NSCLC with LM between July 2002 and July 2021 at the National Cancer Center Hospital. The patients were divided into two groups: patients treated with osimertinib (Osi group) and those treated with gefitinib or erlotinib [first-generation (1G)-TKI group]. RESULTS Of the 967 patients, 71 were eligible, including 29 in the Osi group and 42 in the 1G-TKI group. The median progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) in the Osi group were better than those in the 1G-TKI group (PFS: 16.9 months versus 8.6 months, P = 0.007, and OS: 26.6 months versus 20.0 months, P = 0.158). The LM-overall response rate (ORR) and LM-PFS were significantly better in the Osi group than in the 1G-TKI group (LM-ORR: 62.5% versus 25.7%, P = 0.007; LM-PFS: 23.4 months versus 12.1 months, P = 0.021). In the subgroup analysis of EGFR mutation status, LM-PFS for patients with exon 19 deletion was significantly longer in the Osi group than in the 1G-TKI group (32.7 months versus 13.4 months, P = 0.013), whereas those with L858R mutation in exon 21 did not differ between the two groups. In the multivariate analysis, osimertinib and exon 19 deletion were significant factors for better LM-PFS and OS. CONCLUSION Osimertinib can be more effective for untreated common EGFR-mutated NSCLC patients with LM, especially those with exon 19 deletion, compared to first-generation TKIs.

Abstract
PURPOSE This single-center, prospective molecular profiling study characterizes genomic alterations and identifies therapeutic targets in advanced pediatric solid tumors. METHODS As part of the TOP-GEAR (Trial of Onco-Panel for Gene profiling to Estimate both Adverse events and Response by cancer treatment) project at the National Cancer Center (NCC), Japan, we enrolled pediatric patients with a refractory or recurrent disease during August 2016-December 2021 and performed genomic analysis of matched tumors and blood using originally developed cancer gene panels, NCC Oncopanel (ver. 4.0) and NCC Oncopanel Ped (ver. 1.0). RESULTS Of 142 patients (age, 1-28 years) enrolled, 128 (90%) were evaluable for genomic analysis; 76 (59%) patients harbored at least one reportable somatic or germline alteration. The tumor samples were collected during the initial diagnosis in 65 (51%) patients, after treatment initiation in 11 (9%) patients, and upon either disease progression or relapse in 52 (41%) patients. The leading altered gene was TP53, followed by MYCN, MYC, CDKN2A, and CDK4. The commonly affected molecular processes were transcription, cell-cycle regulation, epigenetic modifiers, and RAS/mitogen-activated protein kinase signaling. Twelve (9%) patients carried pathogenic germline variants in cancer-predisposing genes. Potentially actionable findings were identified in 40 (31%) patients; to date, 13 (10%) patients have received the recommended therapy on the basis of their genomic profiles. Although four patients had access to targeted therapy through clinical trials, the agents were used in nine patients in an off-label setting. CONCLUSION The implementation of genomic medicine has furthered our understanding of tumor biology and provided new therapeutic strategies. However, the paucity of proposed agents limits the full potential of actionability, emphasizing the significance of facilitating access to targeted cancer therapies.

Abstract
Background Phenotyping analysis that includes time course is useful for understanding the mechanisms and clinical management of postoperative delirium. However, postoperative delirium has not been fully phenotyped. Hypothesis-free categorization of heterogeneous symptoms may be useful for understanding the mechanisms underlying delirium, although evidence is currently lacking. Therefore, we aimed to explore the phenotypes of postoperative delirium following invasive cancer surgery using a data-driven approach with minimal prior knowledge. Methods We recruited patients who underwent elective invasive cancer resection. After surgery, participants completed 5 consecutive days of delirium assessments using the Delirium Rating Scale-Revised-98 (DRS-R-98) severity scale. We categorized 65 (13 questionnaire items/day × 5 days) dimensional DRS-R-98 scores using unsupervised machine learning (K-means clustering) to derive a small set of grouped features representing distinct symptoms across all participants. We then reapplied K-means clustering to this set of grouped features to delineate multiple clusters of delirium symptoms. Results Participants were 286 patients, of whom 91 developed delirium defined according to Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, Fifth Edition, criteria. Following the first K-means clustering, we derived four grouped symptom features: (1) mixed motor, (2) cognitive and higher-order thinking domain with perceptual disturbance and thought content abnormalities, (3) acute and temporal response, and (4) sleep-wake cycle disturbance. Subsequent K-means clustering permitted classification of participants into seven subgroups: (i) cognitive and higher-order thinking domain dominant delirium, (ii) prolonged delirium, (iii) acute and brief delirium, (iv) subsyndromal delirium-enriched, (v) subsyndromal delirium-enriched with insomnia, (vi) insomnia, and (vii) fit. Conclusion We found that patients who have undergone invasive cancer resection can be delineated using unsupervised machine learning into three delirium clusters, two subsyndromal delirium clusters, and an insomnia cluster. Validation of clusters and research into the pathophysiology underlying each cluster will help to elucidate the mechanisms of postoperative delirium after invasive cancer surgery.

Abstract
INSTRUCTION High mobility group box 1 (HMGB1) is a pro-inflammatory cytokine that reportedly causes kidney injury and other organ damage in rodent acute kidney injury (AKI) models. However, it remains unclear whether HMGB1 is associated with clinical AKI and related outcomes. This study aimed to evaluate the association with HMGB1 and prognosis of AKI requiring continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT). METHODS AKI patients treated with CRRT in our intensive care unit were enrolled consecutively during 2013-2016. Plasma HMGB1 was measured on initiation. Classic initiation was defined as presenting at least one of the following conventional indications: hyperkalemia (K ≥6.5 mEq/L), severe acidosis (pH <7.15), uremia (UN >100 mg/dL), and diuretics-resistant pulmonary edema. Early initiation was defined as presenting no conventional indications. The primary outcome was defined as 90-day mortality. RESULTS A total of 177 AKI patients were enrolled in this study. HMGB1 was significantly associated with the primary outcome (hazard ratio, 1.06; 95% CI, 1.04-1.08). When the patients were divided into two-by-two groups by the timing of CRRT initiation and the HMBG1 cutoff value obtained by receiver operating curve (ROC) analysis, the high HMGB1 group (>10 ng/mL) with classic initiation was significantly associated with the primary outcome compared with the others, even after adjusting for other factors including the nonrenal serial organ failure assessment (SOFA) score. CONCLUSION HMGB1 was associated with 90-day mortality in AKI patients requiring CRRT. Notably, the highest mortality was observed in the high HMGB1 group with classic initiation. These findings suggest that CRRT should be considered for AKI patients with high HMGB1, regardless of the conventional indications.

Abstract
Resistance to immune checkpoint blockade remains challenging in patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Tumor-infiltrating leukocyte (TIL) quantity, composition, and activation status profoundly influence responsiveness to cancer immunotherapy. This study examined the immune landscape in the NSCLC tumor microenvironment by analyzing TIL profiles of 281 fresh resected NSCLC tissues. Unsupervised clustering based on numbers and percentages of 30 TIL types classified adenocarcinoma (LUAD) and squamous cell carcinoma (LUSQ) into the cold, myeloid cell-dominant, and CD8+ T cell-dominant subtypes. These were significantly correlated with patient prognosis; the myeloid cell subtype had worse outcomes than the others. Integrated genomic and transcriptomic analyses, including RNA sequencing, whole-exome sequencing, T-cell receptor repertoire, and metabolomics of tumor tissue, revealed that immune reaction-related signaling pathways were inactivated, while the glycolysis and K-ras signaling pathways activated in LUAD and LUSQ myeloid cell subtypes. Cases with ALK and ROS1 fusion genes were enriched in the LUAD myeloid subtype, and the frequency of TERT copy-number variations was higher in LUSQ myeloid subtype than in the others. These classifications of NSCLC based on TIL status may be useful for developing personalized immune therapies for NSCLC. Significance The precise TIL profiling classified NSCLC into novel three immune subtypes that correlates with patient outcome, identifying subtype-specific molecular pathways and genomic alterations that should play important roles in constructing subtype-specific immune tumor microenvironments. These classifications of NSCLC based on TIL status are useful for developing personalized immune therapies for NSCLC.

Abstract
The journey to implement cancer genomic medicine (CGM) in oncology practice began in the 1980s, which is considered the dawn of genetic and genomic cancer research. At the time, a variety of activating oncogenic alterations and their functional significance were unveiled in cancer cells, which led to the development of molecular targeted therapies in the 2000s and beyond. Although CGM is still a relatively new discipline and it is difficult to predict to what extent CGM will benefit the diverse pool of cancer patients, the National Cancer Center (NCC) of Japan has already contributed considerably to CGM advancement for the conquest of cancer. Looking back at these past achievements of the NCC, we predict that the future of CGM will involve the following: 1) A biobank of paired cancerous and non-cancerous tissues and cells from various cancer types and stages will be developed. The quantity and quality of these samples will be compatible with omics analyses. All biobank samples will be linked to longitudinal clinical information. 2) New technologies, such as whole-genome sequencing and artificial intelligence, will be introduced and new bioresources for functional and pharmacologic analyses (e.g., a patient-derived xenograft library) will be systematically deployed. 3) Fast and bidirectional translational research (bench-to-bedside and bedside-to-bench) performed by basic researchers and clinical investigators, preferably working alongside each other at the same institution, will be implemented; 4) Close collaborations between academia, industry, regulatory bodies, and funding agencies will be established. 5) There will be an investment in the other branch of CGM, personalized preventive medicine, based on the individual's genetic predisposition to cancer.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Peutz-Jeghers syndrome (PJS) is a rare disease characterized by the presence of hamartomatous polyposis throughout the gastrointestinal tract, except for the esophagus, along with characteristic mucocutaneous pigmentation. It is caused by germline pathogenic variants of the STK11 gene, which exhibit an autosomal dominant mode of inheritance. Some patients with PJS develop gastrointestinal lesions in childhood and require continuous medical care until adulthood and sometimes have serious complications that significantly reduce their quality of life. Hamartomatous polyps in the small bowel may cause bleeding, intestinal obstruction, and intussusception. Novel diagnostic and therapeutic endoscopic procedures such as small-bowel capsule endoscopy and balloon-assisted enteroscopy have been developed in recent years. SUMMARY Under these circumstances, there is growing concern about the management of PJS in Japan, and there are no practice guidelines available. To address this situation, the guideline committee was organized by the Research Group on Rare and Intractable Diseases granted by the Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare with specialists from multiple academic societies. The present clinical guidelines explain the principles in the diagnosis and management of PJS together with four clinical questions and corresponding recommendations based on a careful review of the evidence and involved incorporating the concept of the Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development and Evaluation system. KEY MESSAGES Herein, we present the English version of the clinical practice guidelines of PJS to promote seamless implementation of accurate diagnosis and appropriate management of pediatric, adolescent, and adult patients with PJS.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Helicobacter pylori infection is a well-known risk factor for gastric cancer. However, the contribution of germline pathogenic variants in cancer-predisposing genes and their effect, when combined with H. pylori infection, on the risk of gastric cancer has not been widely evaluated. METHODS We evaluated the association between germline pathogenic variants in 27 cancer-predisposing genes and the risk of gastric cancer in a sample of 10,426 patients with gastric cancer and 38,153 controls from BioBank Japan. We also assessed the combined effect of pathogenic variants and H. pylori infection status on the risk of gastric cancer and calculated the cumulative risk in 1433 patients with gastric cancer and 5997 controls from the Hospital-based Epidemiologic Research Program at Aichi Cancer Center (HERPACC). RESULTS Germline pathogenic variants in nine genes (APC, ATM, BRCA1, BRCA2, CDH1, MLH1, MSH2, MSH6, and PALB2) were associated with the risk of gastric cancer. We found an interaction between H. pylori infection and pathogenic variants in homologous-recombination genes with respect to the risk of gastric cancer in the sample from HERPACC (relative excess risk due to the interaction, 16.01; 95% confidence interval [CI], 2.22 to 29.81; P = 0.02). At 85 years of age, persons with H. pylori infection and a pathogenic variant had a higher cumulative risk of gastric cancer than noncarriers infected with H. pylori (45.5% [95% CI, 20.7 to 62.6] vs. 14.4% [95% CI, 12.2 to 16.6]). CONCLUSIONS H. pylori infection modified the risk of gastric cancer associated with germline pathogenic variants in homologous-recombination genes.

Abstract
APOL1 high-risk variants partially explain the high kidney disease prevalence among African ancestry individuals. Many mechanisms have been reported in cell culture models, but few have been demonstrated in mouse models. Here we characterize two models: (1) HIV-associated nephropathy (HIVAN) Tg26 mice crossed with bacterial artificial chromosome (BAC)/APOL1 transgenic mice and (2) interferon-γ administered to BAC/APOL1 mice. Both models showed exacerbated glomerular disease in APOL1-G1 compared to APOL1-G0 mice. HIVAN model glomerular bulk RNA-seq identified synergistic podocyte-damaging pathways activated by the APOL1-G1 allele and by HIV transgenes. Single-nuclear RNA-seq revealed podocyte-specific patterns of differentially-expressed genes as a function of APOL1 alleles. Eukaryotic Initiation factor-2 pathway was the most activated pathway in the interferon-γ model and the most deactivated pathway in the HIVAN model. HIVAN mouse model podocyte single-nuclear RNA-seq data showed similarity to human focal segmental glomerulosclerosis (FSGS) glomerular bulk RNA-seq data. Furthermore, single-nuclear RNA-seq data from interferon-γ mouse model podocytes (in vivo) showed similarity to human FSGS single-cell RNA-seq data from urine podocytes (ex vivo) and from human podocyte cell lines (in vitro) using bulk RNA-seq. These data highlight differences in the transcriptional effects of the APOL1-G1 risk variant in a model specific manner. Shared differentially expressed genes in podocytes in both mouse models suggest possible novel glomerular damage markers in APOL1 variant-induced diseases. Transcription factor Zbtb16 was downregulated in podocytes and endothelial cells in both models, possibly contributing to glucocorticoid-resistance. In summary, these findings in two mouse models suggest both shared and distinct therapeutic opportunities for APOL1 glomerulopathies.

Abstract
Rationale & Objective Pregnancy complications are risk factors for cardiovascular diseases (CVD). Little is known about the role of renal biomarkers measured shortly after delivery, individually or in combination with pregnancy complications, in predicting subsequent severe maternal CVD. Methods This study included 576 mothers of diverse ethnicities from the Boston Birth cohort, enrolled at delivery and followed prospectively. Plasma creatinine and cystatin C were measured 1-3 days after delivery. CVD during follow-up was defined by physician diagnoses in electronic medical records. Associations of renal biomarkers and pregnancy complications with time-to-CVD events were assessed using Cox proportional hazards models. Results During an average of 10.3±3.2 years of follow-up, 34 mothers developed one or more CVD events. Although no significant associations were found between creatinine and risk of CVD, per unit increase of cystatin C (CysC) was associated with a hazard ratio (HR) of 5.21 (95%CI = 1.49-18.2) for CVD. A borderline significant interactive effect was observed between elevated CysC (≥75th percentile) and preeclampsia. Compared to those without preeclampsia and with normal CysC level (<75 th percentile), mothers with preeclampsia and elevated CysC had the highest risk of CVD (HR=3.8, 95%CI = 1.4-10.2), while mothers with preeclampsia only or with elevated CysC only did not have significantly increased CVD risk. Similar synergistic effects for CVD were observed between CysC and preterm delivery. Conclusions In this sample of US, traditionally under-represented multi-ethnic high-risk mothers, elevated maternal plasma cystatin C and pregnancy complications synergistically increased risk of CVD later in life. These findings warrant further investigation. Clinical Perspectives What is new?Maternal postpartum elevated levels of cystatin C are independently associated with higher risk of cardiovascular diseases (CVD) later in life.Maternal pregnancy complications coupled with postpartum elevated levels of cystatin C synergistically increased future risk of CVD.What are the clinical implications?These findings, if further confirmed, suggest that women with pregnancy complications and elevated postpartum cystatin C may be at particular high risk for CVD later in life compared to women without these risk factors.

Abstract
A 3-month-old Shetland sheepdog presented with a loud ejection murmur and exercise intolerance. Echocardiography revealed an accessory mitral valve leaflet, characterised by a valve-like structure separate from the mitral valve seen in the subaortic region of the ventricular septum. The left ventricular outflow tract was partially obstructed with a pressure gradient of 12 mmHg. Accessory mitral valve leaflet resection and mitral valvuloplasty were performed during open-heart surgery. Histology performed on the membrane-like structures were indicative of fibrous connective tissues. Postoperative echocardiography confirmed removal of the valve-like structure with resolution of the left ventricular outflow tract obstruction. The pressure gradient was decreased to 4.6 mmHg. The dog was in good condition and no further treatment was required 5 months after surgery. Both cardiac troponin I and NT-proBNP were markedly decreased. In this dog, surgical resection combined with mitral valve plasty resolved the left ventricular outflow tract obstruction and the clinical signs.

Abstract
Global DNA methylation levels in peripheral blood leukocytes can be a biomarker for cancer risk; however, levels can be changed by various factors such as environmental pollutants. We investigated the association between serum concentrations of perfluoroalkyl substances (PFASs) and global DNA methylation levels of leukocytes in a cross-sectional study using the control group of a Japanese breast cancer case-control study [397 women with a mean age of 54.1 (SD 10.1) years]. Importantly, our analysis distinguished branched PFAS isomers as different from linear isomers. The serum concentrations of 20 PFASs were measured by in-port arylation gas-chromatography negative chemical ionization mass spectrometry. Global DNA methylation levels in peripheral blood leukocytes were measured using a luminometric methylation assay. Associations between log10-transformed serum PFAS concentrations and global DNA methylation levels were evaluated by regression coefficients in multivariable robust linear regression analyses. Serum concentrations of 13 PFASs were significantly associated with increased global DNA methylation levels in leukocytes. Global DNA methylation was significantly increased by 1.45 %-3.96 % per log10-unit increase of serum PFAS concentration. Our results indicate that exposure to PFASs may increase global DNA methylation levels in peripheral blood leukocytes of Japanese women.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS In familial adenomatous polyposis (FAP), neoplastic lesions outside the colon have become increasingly important. The genotype-phenotype correlation has been established for duodenal polyps, and regular screening is recommended. However, this correlation remains unclear for small-intestinal lesions, except for reports on the relationship between their occurrence and Spigelman stage. Here, we used small-bowel capsule endoscopy (SBCE) to investigate the genotype-phenotype correlation of small-intestinal polyps in FAP. METHODS The genotype-phenotype correlation of small-intestinal polyps was investigated in patients with FAP who underwent SBCE, Esophagogastroduodenoscopy (EGD), and adenomatous polyposis coli (APC) gene analysis. Of 64 patients with FAP who underwent SBCE, 41 were included in the final analysis, 4 did not undergo a complete small intestine examination, and 19 did not undergo genetic analysis. RESULTS The prevalence (median number) of small-intestinal polyps by Spigelman stage was 26% (1.5), 0% (0), 44% (5), 60% (4), and 73% (25.5) for stages 0 to IV, respectively. Significantly more small-intestinal polyps were found in Spigelman stage III and IV groups than in the stage 0 group (P < .05). The APC variant was negative for 6 patients (15%), and the sites associated with more than 5 small-intestinal polyps were codons 278, 1062, 1114, 1281, 1307, 1314, and 1504. CONCLUSIONS In FAP patients, SBCE surveillance is potentially recommended for patients with pathogenic variants in the APC gene at codons 278 and 1062 to 1504 or with Spigelman stage III or higher.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE We have identified a 3D network of subchondral microchannels that connects the deep zone of cartilage to the bone marrow (i.e., cartilage-bone marrow microchannel connectors; CMMC). However, the pathological significance of CMMC is largely unknown. Here, we quantitatively evaluated how the CMMC microarchitecture is related to cartilage condition, as well as regional differences in early idiopathic osteoarthritis (OA). METHODS Two groups of cadaveric female human femoral heads (intact cartilage vs early cartilage lesions) were identified, and a biopsy-based high-resolution micro-CT imaging was employed. Subchondral bone (SB) thickness, CMMC number, maximum and minimum CMMC size, and the CMMC morphology were quantified and compared between the two groups. The effect of joint's region and cartilage condition was examined on each dependent variable. RESULTS The CMMC number and morphology were affected by region of the joint, but not by cartilage condition. On the other hand, the minimum and maximum CMMC size was changed by both the location on the joint, as well as the cartilage condition. The smallest CMMC were consistently detected at the load-bearing region (LBR) of the joint. Compared to non-pathological subjects, the size of the microchannels was enlarged in early OA, most noticeably at the non-load-bearing region (NLBR) and the peripheral rim (PR) of the femoral head. Furthermore, subchondral bone thinning was observed in early OA as a localized occurrence linked with areas of partial chondral defect. CONCLUSION Our data point to an enlargement of the SB microchannel network, and a collective structural deterioration of SB in early idiopathic OA.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Although better diet quality is inversely associated with mortality risk, the association between diet quality and mortality remains unclear in frail and non-frail older adults. Thus, we aimed to examine this association in older Japanese adults. DESIGN A prospective cohort study. SETTING AND PARTICIPANTS We used the data of 8,051 Japanese older adults aged ≥65 years in the Kyoto-Kameoka study. MESUREMENTS Dietary intake was estimated using a validated food frequency questionnaire. Diet quality was evaluated by calculating the adherence scores to the Japanese Food Guide Spinning Top (range, 0 [worst] to 80 [best]), which were stratified into quartiles. Frailty status was assessed using the validated self-administered Kihon Checklist (KCL) and the Fried phenotype (FP) model. Survival data were collected between February 15, 2012 and November 30, 2016. Statistical analysis was performed using the multivariate Cox proportional hazard analysis and the spline model. RESULTS During the median 4.75-year follow-up (36,552 person-years), we recorded 661 deaths. After adjusting for confounders, compared with the bottom adherence score quartile, the top quartile was associated with lower hazard ratio (HR) of mortality in frailty (HR, 0.73; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.54-1.00) and non-frailty, as defined by the KCL (HR, 0.72; 95% CI, 0.52-1.01). In the spline model, regardless of frailty status defined by the KCL and FP model, adherence score showed a strongly dose-dependent inverse association with mortality up to approximately 55 points; however, no significant differences were observed thereafter. This association was similar to the results obtained in individuals with physical, cognitive, and depression as domains of KCL in the spline model. CONCLUSIONS Our findings demonstrate an L-shaped association between diet quality and mortality in both frail and non-frail individuals. This study may provide important knowledge for improving poor diet quality in older individuals with frailty or domains of frailty.

Abstract
SUMMARY Since June 2019, under the umbrella of the national health insurance system, Japan has started cancer genomic medicine (CGM) with comprehensive genomic profiling (CGP) tests. The Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare (MHLW) of Japan constructed a network of CGM hospitals (a total of 233 institutes as of July 1, 2022) and established the Center for Cancer Genomics and Advanced Therapeutics (C-CAT), the national datacenter for CGM. Clinical information and genomic data from the CGP tests are securely transferred to C-CAT, which then generates "C-CAT Findings" reports containing information of clinical annotation and matched clinical trials based on the CGP data. As of June 30, 2022, a total of 36,340 datapoints of clinical/genomic information are aggregated in C-CAT, and the number is expected to increase swiftly. The data are now open for sharing with not only the CGM hospitals but also other academic institutions and industries.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Genetic variants in apolipoprotein L1 (APOL1), a protein that protects humans from infection with African trypanosomes, explain a substantial proportion of the excess risk of chronic kidney disease affecting individuals with sub-Saharan ancestry. The mechanisms by which risk variants damage kidney cells remain incompletely understood. In preclinical models, APOL1 expressed in podocytes can lead to significant kidney injury. In humans, studies in kidney transplant suggest that the effects of APOL1 variants are predominantly driven by donor genotype. Less attention has been paid to a possible role for circulating APOL1 in kidney injury. METHODS Using liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry, the concentrations of APOL1 were measured in plasma and urine from participants in the Seattle Kidney Study. Asymmetric flow field-flow fractionation was used to evaluate the size of APOL1-containing lipoprotein particles in plasma. Transgenic mice that express wild-type or risk variant APOL1 from an albumin promoter were treated to cause kidney injury and evaluated for renal disease and pathology. RESULTS In human participants, urine concentrations of APOL1 were correlated with plasma concentrations and reduced kidney function. Risk variant APOL1 was enriched in larger particles. In mice, circulating risk variant APOL1-G1 promoted kidney damage and reduced podocyte density without renal expression of APOL1. CONCLUSIONS These results suggest that plasma APOL1 is dynamic and contributes to the progression of kidney disease in humans, which may have implications for treatment of APOL1-associated kidney disease and for kidney transplantation.

Abstract
Aim: We sought to identify the variants that could predict the risk of nivolumab-induced immune-related adverse events (irAEs) in patients with cancer. Patients & methods: We enrolled 622 Japanese patients and carried out a genome-wide association study. The associations for 507 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) showing p < 0.001 were further investigated using an independent cohort. Results: In the combined analysis, possible associations were found for a total of 90 SNPs. Although no SNPs were identified to be significantly associated with nivolumab-induced irAEs, the SNP most strongly associated with nivolumab-induced irAEs was rs469490. Conclusion: This study is an important hypothesis-generating study to guide future studies in larger and/or other ethnic cohorts.
