Abstract
Adsorption reactions of various cations on clay minerals have different effects on their environmental behaviors depending on the molecular-scale adsorption structure. Some cations form outer-sphere complexes via hydration, while others create inner-sphere complexes through dehydration. This preference dictates their environmental impact. However, the factors controlling these complex formations remain unclear. Furthermore, research on the adsorption preferences of radium (Ra) is lacking. Thus, this study conducted the first EXAFS study of Ra2+ adsorbed on clay minerals and showed that Ra2+ forms inner-sphere complexes on vermiculite, which can be surprising because Ra2+ is a divalent cation and prefers to be hydrated. In order to investigate the factors controlling the complex formations, this study conducted systematic EXAFS measurements and DFT calculations for alkali and alkaline earth metal cations. The results showed the importance of the size-matching effect between the adsorbed cation and the cavity of the tetrahedral sheets and that the complex formation can be estimated by the combination of the ionic radius and hydration enthalpy of the adsorbed cation. Furthermore, this study also analyzed environmental core samples. Their results showed the fixation of Ra2+ by clay minerals and the controlling factors can effectively predict cation environmental behavior.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION A feature of the management of extremely preterm infants in Japan is proactive circulatory management using early routine echocardiography performed by neonatologists. METHODS This study was a post hoc analysis of the Patent ductus arteriosus and Left Atrial Size Evaluation in preterm infants (PLASE) study, which is a prospective cohort study including preterm infants admitted to 34 tertiary neonatal intensive care units in Japan between October 2015 and December 2016. We described the details of the treatment strategy of patent ductus arteriosus (PDA) based on early routine echocardiography. RESULTS In total, 613 preterm infants were included into the analysis. Twenty percent of infants with prophylactic indomethacin were switched to therapeutic cyclooxygenase inhibitor (COX-I) before the completion of the full prophylactic indomethacin course. Therapeutic COX-I was mostly administered based on echocardiographic findings before PDA became symptomatic or hemodynamically significant. Therapeutic COX-I was frequently discontinued after one or two doses before the full course (three doses) was completed. The proportion of infants requiring additional treatment (additional therapeutic COX-I course or surgical PDA closure) after discontinued COX-I courses (<3 doses) compared to infants after completed 3 doses course was significantly lower (after the first therapeutic COX-I course 46% vs. 68%, p < 0.001) or without a significant difference (after the second or third course). CONCLUSIONS The clinical management of PDA in Japan featured (1) COX-I administration based on echocardiographic findings before symptomatic or hemodynamically significant PDA appeared and (2) frequent discontinuation of therapeutic COX-I before completing the standard three doses course.

Abstract
AIM The present study aimed to estimate the total numbers of obstetric diseases diagnosed, total amounts of medical expenses claimed for obstetric diseases, their averages per livebirth, and yearly trends in Japan. METHODS This is a secondary analysis of the National Database of Health Insurance Claims and Specific Health Checkups of Japan (NDB) (data from 2015 to 2019). The target population was women of reproductive age (15-49 years old) with diseases in pregnancy, childbirth, and the puerperium, defined by having O codes according to the International Classification of Diseases 10th Revision. We calculated the numbers of obstetric diseases diagnosed, amounts of medical expenses claimed for obstetric diseases marked with the "main injury/disease decision flag," and the totals divided by the annual numbers of livebirths, by year and women's age group. RESULTS From 2015 to 2019, both the numbers of obstetric diseases diagnosed and amounts of medical expenses claimed for obstetric diseases per livebirth were on an upward trend, whereas the total numbers of obstetric diseases diagnosed were decreased. Women in advanced age groups had a higher number of diagnoses and a higher amount of medical expenses for obstetric diseases per livebirth. "Preterm labour without delivery" had the highest amounts of medical expenses claimed for and the second highest numbers of diagnoses throughout the study period. CONCLUSIONS This study suggests that pregnant women in Japan would have an increasing number of obstetric complications and necessary medical expenses year by year. Further study is warranted to elucidate these trends and identify possible mitigation measures.

Abstract
The structure and decay of the most neutron-rich beryllium isotope, ^{16}Be, has been investigated following proton knockout from a high-energy ^{17}B beam. Two relatively narrow resonances were observed for the first time, with energies of 0.84(3) and 2.15(5) MeV above the two-neutron decay threshold and widths of 0.32(8) and 0.95(15) MeV, respectively. These were assigned to be the ground (J^{π}=0^{+}) and first excited (2^{+}) state, with E_{x}=1.31(6) MeV. The mass excess of ^{16}Be was thus deduced to be 56.93(13) MeV, some 0.5 MeV more bound than the only previous measurement. Both states were observed to decay by direct two-neutron emission. Calculations incorporating the evolution of the wave function during the decay as a genuine three-body process reproduced the principal characteristics of the neutron-neutron energy spectra for both levels, indicating that the ground state exhibits a strong spatially compact dineutron component, while the 2^{+} level presents a far more diffuse neutron-neutron distribution.

Abstract
We connected three research fields on Ru extraction, XANES, and DFT calculation and elucidate the sequence of distribution ratio (D) and their reactions. The magnitude order of the distribution ratio, D(Ru), from acids, HCl > H2SO4 > HNO3 > HClO4, by IDOA indicates to extract readily the stable Ru-Cl ions. The XANES signals, which suggests the electrical charge of Ru(III) extracted into the organic phase, supports the ion-pairing extraction of the anionic Ru-Cl complex with an extractant protonated. Ru(III) in other acids might be extracted by solvation of extractant, thus ion-pair extraction is stronger than solvation in Ru extraction. According to the D(Ru), the same extractant trend, NTAamide > MIDOA > IDOA, as the energy gap of HOMO and LUMO by DFT calculation is found, which suggests that DFT calculation can give the relative magnitude of each D(M) value when extractant and metal in an extraction are determined.

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
To ascertain whether habitual green tea consumption is associated with sarcopenia among Japanese older adults, using the screening tool for sarcopenia (SARC-F). This cross-sectional study in Mukawa, Hokkaido, Japan, was conducted between June and September 2022 and included 364 Japanese participants older than 65 y. Habitual green tea consumption and energy intake were ascertained using a validated self-administered food frequency questionnaire. Sarcopenia was evaluated using the SARC-F. Multivariable logistic regression analysis was used to estimate the odds ratio (OR) and 95% confidence interval (CI) of sarcopenia risk across participant tertiles of green tea consumption, with adjustments for age, sex, body mass index, living alone, habitual exercise, walking hours, current smoking status, current alcohol consumption status, energy intake, protein intake, vegetable intake, and fruit intake. In this study of 364 participants (154 men and 210 women), the prevalence of sarcopenia risk was 9.3%. The multivariable-adjusted OR [95% CI] of green tea consumption for ≥1 cup/d compared with that of <1 cup/wk of sarcopenia was 0.312 [0.129-0.752]. Higher habitual green tea consumption was inversely associated with sarcopenia among Japanese older adults. Further longitudinal studies are required to confirm these findings.

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
Importance Kawasaki disease is an acute systemic vasculitis that primarily affects infants and young children. No reproducible risk factors have yet been identified, but a possible association between maternal folic acid supplementation and Kawasaki disease has been reported previously. Objective To investigate the associations of exposure to maternal serum folic acid levels and maternal folic acid supplementation with onset of Kawasaki disease during infancy among offspring. Design, Setting, and Participants This cohort study used data from the Japan Environment and Children's Study, a nationwide birth cohort, which has enrolled children since 2011. This study used the data set released in October 2019, and analysis was performed in January 2023. Exposures Maternal serum folic acid levels (≥10 ng/mL classified as exposed) during the second and third trimesters and the frequency of maternal folic acid supplementation during the first trimester and during the second and third trimesters of pregnancy (once a week or more was classified as exposed). Main Outcomes and Measures The primary outcome was onset of Kawasaki disease in offspring up to age 12 months. Odds ratios (ORs) for each exposure were estimated, and propensity score-adjusted logistic regression was conducted on the basis of the sets of variables. Results The study population comprised 87 702 children who were followed-up for 12 months. Of these, 336 children developed Kawasaki disease. Mothers who took folic acid supplements (31 275 mothers [35.7%]; mean [SD] age, 32 [5] years) had higher serum folic acid levels than those who did not take supplements. Higher maternal serum folic acid levels were associated with a significantly lower risk of Kawasaki disease in offspring than lower levels (folic acid ≥10 vs <10 ng/mL, 56 of 20 698 children [0.27%] vs 267 of 64 468 children [0.41%]; OR, 0.68; 95% CI, 0.50-0.92). Children whose mothers took folic acid supplementation during the first trimester had a lower prevalence of Kawasaki disease than children whose mothers did not take folic acid (131 of 39 098 children [0.34%] vs 203 of 48 053 children [0.42%]), although the difference was not statistically significant (OR, 0.83; 95% CI, 0.66-1.04). Supplementation during the second and third trimesters was associated with a significantly lower risk of Kawasaki disease compared with no supplementation (94 of 31 275 children [0.30%] vs 242 of 56 427 children [0.43%]; OR, 0.73; 95% CI, 0.57-0.94). Conclusions and Relevance In this cohort study, higher serum folic acid levels (≥10 ng/mL) and maternal folic acid supplementation more than once a week during the second and third trimesters were associated with reduced risk of Kawasaki disease in offspring during infancy.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The effectiveness of moisturizers in preventing infant atopic dermatitis (AD) remains unclear. We previously showed that using 2e moisturizer of commercial moisturizer (Shiseido Japan Co., Ltd.) at least once a day significantly prevented AD in infants as compared with as-needed petroleum jelly. This trial aimed to determine the effectiveness of twice- or once-daily application of Fam's Baby moisturizer (Fam's Inc.) in preventing AD compared with once-daily 2e moisturizer. METHODS This trial was a single-centre, three-parallel-group, assessor-blinded, superiority, individually randomized, controlled, phase II trial that was conducted from 25 August 2020 to 28 September 2021. We randomly assigned 60 newborns with at least one parent or sibling who has AD to receive Fam's Baby moisturizer twice daily (Group A) or once daily (Group B), or 2e once daily (Group C) in a 1:1:1 ratio until they were 32 weeks old. The primary outcome was the time of AD onset. RESULTS Atopic dermatitis was observed in 11/20 (55%), 5/20 (25%) and 10/20 (50%), infants in Groups A, B and C, respectively. Cumulative incidence values for AD according to the Kaplan-Meier method showed that infants in Group B tended to maintain an intact skin for a longer period than those in Group C (median time, not reached [NR] vs. 212 days, log-rank test, p = 0.064). Cox regression analysis showed that the risk of AD tended to be lower in Group B (hazard ratio with group C as control, 0.36; 95% confidential intervals: 0.12-1.06). No serious adverse events occurred in any of the enrolled infants. CONCLUSION Fam's Baby moisturizer may better prevent AD than 2e. Further large-scale trials should be performed to confirm the efficacy of Fam's Baby moisturizer in preventing AD in infants.

Abstract
Yogurt is made by fermenting milk with 2 lactic acid bacteria, Lactobacillus delbrueckii ssp. bulgaricus and Streptococcus thermophilus. To comprehensively understand the protocooperation mechanism between S. thermophilus and L. bulgaricus in yogurt fermentation, we examined 24 combinations of cocultures comprising 7 fast- or slow-acidifying S. thermophilus strains with 6 fast- or slow-acidifying L. bulgaricus strains. Furthermore, 3 NADH oxidase (Nox)-deficient mutants (Δnox) and one pyruvate formate-lyase deficient mutant (ΔpflB) of S. thermophilus were used to evaluate the factor that determines the acidification rate of S. thermophilus. The results revealed that the acidification rate of S. thermophilus monoculture determined the yogurt fermentation rates, despite the coexistence of L. bulgaricus, whose acidification rate was either fast or slow. Significant correlation was found between the acidification rate of S. thermophilus monoculture and the amount of formate production. Result using ΔpflB showed that the formate was indispensable for the acidification of S. thermophilus. Moreover, results of the Δnox experiments revealed that formate production required Nox activity, which not only regulated dissolved oxygen, but also the redox potential. The Nox provided the large decrease in redox potential required by pyruvate formate-lyase to produce formate. A highly significant correlation was found between formate accumulation and Nox activity in S. thermophilus. In conclusion, the formate production ability provided by the action of Nox activity determines the acidification rate of S. thermophilus, and consequently, regulates yogurt coculture fermentation.

Abstract
In most vertebrates, the oviducts and sperm ducts are derived from the Müllerian ducts and Wolffian ducts, respectively. However, in teleosts, the genital ducts are formed by the posterior extension of gonads in both sexes. Whether the genital ducts of teleosts are newly evolved organs or variants of Müllerian ducts is an important question for understanding evolutionary mechanisms of morphogenesis. One of the genes essential for Müllerian duct formation in mice is Wnt4, which is expressed in the mesenchyme and induces invagination of the coelomic epithelium and its posterior elongation. Here, we addressed the above question by examining genital duct development in mutants of two Wnt4 genes in the medaka (wnt4a is orthologous to mouse Wnt4, and wnt4b is paralogous). The wnt4b mutants had a short body but were fertile with normal genital ducts. In contrast, both male and female wnt4a mutants had their posterior elongation of the gonads stopped within or just outside the coelom. The mutants retained the posterior parts of ovarian cavities or sperm duct primordia, which are potential target tissues of Wnt4a. The gonads of female scl mutants (unable to synthesize sex steroids) lacked these tissues and did not develop genital ducts. Medaka wnt4a was expressed in the mesenchyme ventral to the genital ducts in both sexes. Taken together, the data strongly suggest that the mouse Müllerian ducts and the medaka genital ducts share homologous developmental processes. Additionally, the wnt4a or wnt4b single mutants and the double mutants did not show sex-reversal, implying that both genes are dispensable for gonadal sex differentiation in the medaka.

Abstract
The T2K experiment presents new measurements of neutrino oscillation parameters using 19.7 ( 16.3 ) × 10 20 protons on target (POT) in (anti-)neutrino mode at the far detector (FD). Compared to the previous analysis, an additional 4.7 × 10 20 POT neutrino data was collected at the FD. Significant improvements were made to the analysis methodology, with the near-detector analysis introducing new selections and using more than double the data. Additionally, this is the first T2K oscillation analysis to use NA61/SHINE data on a replica of the T2K target to tune the neutrino flux model, and the neutrino interaction model was improved to include new nuclear effects and calculations. Frequentist and Bayesian analyses are presented, including results on sin 2 θ 13 and the impact of priors on the δ CP measurement. Both analyses prefer the normal mass ordering and upper octant of sin 2 θ 23 with a nearly maximally CP-violating phase. Assuming the normal ordering and using the constraint on sin 2 θ 13 from reactors, sin 2 θ 23 = 0 . 561 - 0.032 + 0.021 using Feldman-Cousins corrected intervals, and Δ m 32 2 = 2 . 494 - 0.058 + 0.041 × 10 - 3 eV 2 using constant Δ χ 2 intervals. The CP-violating phase is constrained to δ CP = - 1 . 97 - 0.70 + 0.97 using Feldman-Cousins corrected intervals, and δ CP = 0 , π is excluded at more than 90% confidence level. A Jarlskog invariant of zero is excluded at more than 2 σ credible level using a flat prior in δ CP , and just below 2 σ using a flat prior in sin δ CP . When the external constraint on sin 2 θ 13 is removed, sin 2 θ 13 = 28 . 0 - 6.5 + 2.8 × 10 - 3 , in agreement with measurements from reactor experiments. These results are consistent with previous T2K analyses.

Abstract
Background Many prenatal factors are reported to be associated with congenital heart defects (CHD) in offspring. However, these associations have not been adequately examined using large-scale birth cohorts. Methods and Results We evaluated a data set of the Japan Environmental and Children's Study. The primary outcome was a diagnosis of CHD by age 2 years. We defined the following variables as exposures: maternal baseline characteristics, fertilization treatment, maternal history of diseases, socioeconomic status, maternal alcohol intake, smoking, tea consumption, maternal dietary intake, and maternal medications and supplements up to 12 weeks of gestation. We used multivariable logistic regression analysis to assess the associations between various exposures and CHD in offspring. A total of 91 664 singletons were included, among which 1264 (1.38%) had CHD. In multivariable analysis, vitamin A supplements (adjusted odds ratio [aOR], 5.78 [95% CI, 2.30-14.51]), maternal use of valproic acid (aOR, 4.86 [95% CI, 1.51-15.64]), maternal use of antihypertensive agents (aOR, 3.80 [95% CI, 1.74-8.29]), maternal age ≥40 years (aOR, 1.59 [95% CI, 1.14-2.20]), and high maternal hemoglobin concentration in the second trimester (aOR, 1.10 per g/dL [95% CI, 1.03-1.17]) were associated with CHD in offspring. Conclusions Using a Japanese large-scale birth cohort study, we found 6 maternal factors to be associated with CHD in offspring.

Abstract
Studying the gravity-dependent characteristics of regolith, fine-grained granular media covering extra-terrestrial bodies is essential for the reliable design and analysis of landers and rovers for space exploration. In this study, we propose an experimental approach to examine a granular flow under stable artificial gravity conditions for a long duration generated by a centrifuge at the International Space Station. We also perform a discrete element simulation of the granular flow in both artificial and natural gravity environments. The simulation results verify that the granular flows in artificial and natural gravity are consistent. Further, regression analysis of the experimental results reveals that the mass flow rate of granular flow quantitatively follows a well-known physics-based law with some deviations under low-gravity conditions, implying that the bulk density of the granular media decreases with gravity. This insight also indicates that the bulk density considered in simulation studies of space probes under low-gravity conditions needs to be tuned for their reliable design and analysis.

Abstract
Subjecting a physical system to extreme conditions is one of the means often used to obtain a better understanding and deeper insight into its organization and structure. In the case of the atomic nucleus, one such approach is to investigate isotopes that have very different neutron-to-proton (N/Z) ratios than in stable nuclei. Light, neutron-rich isotopes exhibit the most asymmetric N/Z ratios and those lying beyond the limits of binding, which undergo spontaneous neutron emission and exist only as very short-lived resonances (about 10-21 s), provide the most stringent tests of modern nuclear-structure theories. Here we report on the first observation of 28O and 27O through their decay into 24O and four and three neutrons, respectively. The 28O nucleus is of particular interest as, with the Z = 8 and N = 20 magic numbers1,2, it is expected in the standard shell-model picture of nuclear structure to be one of a relatively small number of so-called 'doubly magic' nuclei. Both 27O and 28O were found to exist as narrow, low-lying resonances and their decay energies are compared here to the results of sophisticated theoretical modelling, including a large-scale shell-model calculation and a newly developed statistical approach. In both cases, the underlying nuclear interactions were derived from effective field theories of quantum chromodynamics. Finally, it is shown that the cross-section for the production of 28O from a 29F beam is consistent with it not exhibiting a closed N = 20 shell structure.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Early-onset atopic dermatitis is a strong risk factor for food allergy, suggesting that early effective treatment may prevent transcutaneous sensitization. OBJECTIVES This study tested whether enhanced treatment of atopic dermatitis to clinically affected and unaffected skin is more effective in preventing hen's egg allergy than reactive treatment to clinically affected skin only. METHODS This was a multicenter, parallel-group, open-label, assessor-blind, randomized controlled trial (PACI [Prevention of Allergy via Cutaneous Intervention] study). This study enrolled infants 7-13 weeks old with atopic dermatitis and randomly assigned infants in a 1:1 ratio to enhanced early skin treatment or conventional reactive treatment using topical corticosteroids (TCSs). The primary outcome was the proportion of immediate hen's egg allergy confirmed by oral food challenge at 28 weeks of age. RESULTS This study enrolled 650 infants and analyzed 640 infants (enhanced [n = 318] or conventional [n = 322] treatment). Enhanced treatment significantly reduced hen's egg allergy compared with the conventional treatment (31.4% vs 41.9%, P = .0028; risk difference: -10.5%, upper bound of a 1-sided CI: -3.0%), while it lowered body weight (mean difference: -422 g, 95% CI: -553 to -292 g) and height (mean difference: -0.8 cm, 95% CI: -1.22 to -0.33 cm) at 28 weeks of age. CONCLUSIONS This study highlighted the potential of well-controlled atopic dermatitis management as a component of a hen's egg allergy prevention strategy. The enhanced treatment protocol of this trial should be modified before it can be considered as an approach to prevent hen's egg allergy in daily practice to avoid the adverse effects of TCSs. After remission induction by TCSs, maintenance therapy with lower potency TCSs or other topical therapies might be considered as alternative proactive treatments to overcome the safety concerns of TCSs.

Abstract
The effect of a synthetic progestin, levonorgestrel (LNG), on the sex of exposed embryos was examined in medaka fish (Oryzias latipes). The aims of this study are to clarify the dual effect of LNG on sex and the correlation with its androgenic/estrogenic potential in medaka. LNG exposure causes significant dose-dependent masculinization (0.1-100 μg/L), whereas a decrease in the masculinization ratio is observed at 100 μg/L. LNG also causes significant feminization at 1-100 μg/L, but not in a dose-dependent manner. Exposure of estrogen-responsive gene (choriogeninH-EGFP) transgenic embryos to 100 μg/L LNG produced significant fluorescent signals in hatched fry. In vitro transcriptional assays indicated that LNG at 10-7-10-5 M induced significant activity for estrogen receptor (ESR)2a and ESR2b, but not for ESR1. In pre-self-feeding fry at 5 days post hatching (dph), 1-100 μg/L LNG caused a significant increase in the mRNA of choriogeninH, irrespective of genetic sex. Moreover, LNG (10-10-10-5 M) also caused a significant increase in the transcriptional activity of androgen receptor (AR) α and ARβ in vitro, and 0.1 μg/L LNG significantly increased the mRNA levels of a testis-differentiation initiation factor, gonadal soma-derived factor (gsdf), as an androgen-upregulated and estrogen-downregulated gene, in 5 dph XX fry to levels similar to those in the control XY fry. However, 100 and 10 μg/L LNG suppressed or did not induce gsdf mRNA expression in XY and XX fry, respectively. Together, these findings show that LNG exerts estrogenic and androgenic activities in different concentration ranges, which correlate with the ratio of LNG-induced sex reversal. These results suggest for the first time, that medaka exposure to LNG can induce masculinization and feminization, based on the balance between androgenic and estrogenic activities, and the protocol applied in this study represents an alternative to the traditional animal model used to screen for endocrine-disrupting potential.

Abstract
We clarified the chemical reaction of deposits following the reduction of uranyl ions (UVIO22+) from the results of electrochemical quartz crystal microbalance, impedance spectra, and X-ray absorption fine structure measurements. We propose the following deposition mechanism: (1) UIV is formed by the disproportionation of UV, (2) UIV forms UIV hydroxide deposits, and (3) finally, the hydroxide deposits change to UIV oxide, which generally have a larger electrical resistance than the hydroxide form.

Abstract
Lagrangian models present several advantages over Eulerian models to simulate the transport of radionuclides in the aquatic environment in emergency situations. A radionuclide release is simulated as a number of particles whose trajectories are calculated along time and thus these models do not require a spatial discretization (although it is always required in time). In this paper we investigate the dependence of a Lagrangian model output with the grid spacing which is used to calculate concentrations from the final distribution of particles, with the number of particles in the simulation and with the interpolation schemes which are required because of the discrete nature of the water circulation data used to feed the model. Also, a Lagrangian model may describe the exchanges of radionuclides between phases (liquid and solid), which is done in terms of transition probabilities. The dependence of these probabilities with time step is analyzed as well. It was found that the optimum grid size used to calculate concentrations should be carefully checked, and that temporal interpolation is more significant than spatial interpolation to obtain a more accurate solution. A method to estimate the number of particles required to have a certain accuracy level is proposed. Finally, it was found that for low sediment concentrations and small radionuclide kd, exact equations for the transition probabilities should be used; and that phase transitions introduce a stability condition as in Eulerian models.

Abstract
We report on the first proton-induced single proton- and neutron-removal reactions from the neutron-deficient ^{14}O nucleus with large Fermi-surface asymmetry S_{n}-S_{p}=18.6 MeV at ∼100 MeV/nucleon, a widely used energy regime for rare-isotope studies. The measured inclusive cross sections and parallel momentum distributions of the ^{13}N and ^{13}O residues are compared to the state-of-the-art reaction models, with nuclear structure inputs from many-body shell-model calculations. Our results provide the first quantitative contributions of multiple reaction mechanisms including the quasifree knockout, inelastic scattering, and nucleon transfer processes. It is shown that the inelastic scattering and nucleon transfer, usually neglected at such energy regime, contribute about 50% and 30% to the loosely bound proton and deeply bound neutron removal, respectively. These multiple reaction mechanisms should be considered in analyses of inclusive one-nucleon removal cross sections measured at intermediate energies for quantitative investigation of single-particle strengths and correlations in atomic nuclei.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Neurological impairment is not rare in infants with acute liver failure (ALF). This study aimed to investigate the perioperative risk factors for neurological impairment following liver transplantation (LT) in infantile ALF. METHODS Retrospective analysis was performed in infants who were younger than 1 year with ALF who subsequently underwent LT at our hospital between January 2005 and December 2016. Patients were considered to have neurological impairment if the Pediatric Cerebral Performance Category score was between 2 and 5 at the age of 6 years. A comparison between the groups of infants with and without neurological impairment was performed, and factors with p < .10 in the comparison were analyzed using univariate logistic regression analysis for neurological impairment. RESULTS Twenty-six infants survived until 6 years of age, and 31% (8/26) of them had neurological impairment. Patients with neurological impairment were significantly younger in age at ALF onset, had significantly higher pre-LT bilirubin and prothrombin time/international normalized ratio, and stayed significantly longer in the intensive care unit than those without neurological impairment. Total bilirubin (odds ratio (OR) = 1.12, 95% confidence interval (CI) 1.02-1.22, p = .012), indirect bilirubin (OR = 1.10, 95% CI 1.01-1.20, p = .025), direct bilirubin (OR = 1.22, 95% CI 1.01-1.47, p = .040), and age in month at ALF (OR = 0.76, 95% CI 0.58-0.999, p = .049) showed significant association with neurological impairment. CONCLUSIONS High pre-LT peak bilirubin value and younger age at ALF onset can be perioperative risk factors for neurological impairment after LT in infantile ALF.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To investigate the role of Piezo1 and Piezo2 in surgically induced osteoarthritis (OA) in mice. DESIGN Male conditional knockout (cKO) mice missing Piezo1 and Piezo2 in the joint using Gdf5-Cre transgenic mice were induced with post-traumatic OA by destabilization of the medial meniscus (DMM) of the right knee joint at 12 weeks of age. The severity of OA was histologically assessed at 24 weeks of age. OA-associated pain was evaluated by static weight bearing analysis. Additionally, articular chondrocytes isolated from cKO mice were exposed to fluid flow shear stress (FFSS) to evaluate the expression of OA-associated genes. RESULTS Mice with conditional deletion of Piezo1 and Piezo2 showed normal joint development with no overt histological changes in the knee joint at 12 weeks and 24 weeks. DMM surgery induced moderate to severe OA in both control and cKO mice (median OARSI score: control, 4.67; cKO, 4.23, P = 0.3082), although a few cKO mice showed milder OA. Pain assessment by static weight-bearing analysis suggested Piezo ablation in the joint has no beneficial effects on pain. FFSS increased the expression of OA-related genes both in control and cKO mice to similar extents. CONCLUSION Piezo1 and Piezo2 are not essential for normal joint development. Genetic ablation of Piezo channels did not confer evident protective effects on OA progression in mice. In vitro data suggests that different mechanotransducers other than Piezo channels mediate FFSS in mechanical stress-induced gene expression.

Abstract
UNLABELLED The long-term prognosis of patients with Kawasaki disease (KD) complicated by coronary artery aneurysms (CAA) is still unclear. The present, multicenter registry study aimed to study the factors associated with coronary events (CE) and determine an appropriate management method for patients with KD complicated with CAA. Patients with KD with onset after 2015 and with a medium-sized or large CAA having an actual diameter ≥ 4 mm or a Z-score ≥ 5.0 at 30 days and later after KD onset were included in the annual survey. The primary endpoint was the time-dependent incidence of CE. Associated factors were also examined. In total, 179 patients from 53 centers were enrolled and followed up for a median of 501 days. The median age at KD onset was 2.2 years, 137 patients were male (77%), 47 had incomplete KD (26%), and 36 had large CAA (20%). CE occurred in 13 patients (7%; 95% confidence interval: 4-12%); eight (62%) experienced CE within 1 year, and all the patients experienced a CE within 2 years. All but one patient received antiplatelet drugs and warfarin. Patients with a large CAA had significantly more CAA (2.8 vs. 1.7, p < 0.001), more cases of warfarin use (86% vs. 43%, p < 0.001), and were more likely to have CE (28% vs. 2%, p < 0.001) than those with a medium-sized CAA. On univariate Cox regression analysis, the factors significantly associated with CE were large CAA (hazard ratio (HR): 17.0), three or more CAA (HR: 23.3), and beaded CAA (HR: 15.9). Multivariable Cox regression analysis revealed that the only associated factor was a large CAA. CONCLUSION Patients with a large CAA were more likely to have a CE within 2 years. Antithrombotic therapy with warfarin did not eliminate the CE risk, and better therapies are desirable. WHAT IS KNOWN • Coronary artery aneurysms are a serious complication of Kawasaki disease, and coronary events are sometimes fatal. • In previous, retrospective studies in Japan, large aneurysms, male sex, and refractoriness to initial immunoglobulin therapy were considered risk factors for coronary events. WHAT IS NEW • Of 179 patients with a medium sized or large aneurysm, 13 (7%) experienced coronary events, all of which occurred within 2 years of onset. Factors significantly associated with coronary events were large aneurysms, three or more aneurysms, and beaded aneurysms.

Abstract
Background Coronary arterial aneurysms (CAAs) associated with Kawasaki disease (KD) significantly affect prognosis. However, the clinical course of CAAs and factors associated with CAA regression have not been well analyzed. Methods and Results The cohort of the Z-Score 2nd Project Stage study, a multicenter, retrospective, cohort study involving 44 institutions in Japan including 1006 patients with KD, was examined. CAAs were classified by the z score of their internal diameter in the acute phase: small (z<5), medium (5≤z<10), and large (z≥10). The lower limit of small CAA was based on the Japanese Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare criteria. In the right coronary artery, the CAA regression rates 10 years after diagnosis were 95.5% for small, 83.2% for medium, and 36.3% for large. In the proximal left anterior descending artery, the regression rates 10 years after diagnosis were 95.3% for small, 80.1% for medium, and 28.8% for large. Cox regression analysis showed that diagnosis under the age of 1 year and onset of KD in 2010 to 2012 for the right coronary artery and the left anterior descending artery, and female for the right coronary artery were significantly associated with a high regression rate, whereas large CAAs for the right coronary artery and the left anterior descending artery were significantly associated with a low regression rate. Conclusions The current study, the largest Japanese study of its kind, found that small aneurysm, recent onset, and diagnosis under the age of 1 year predict regression, and that even giant aneurysms could regress. These data may contribute to long-term management of coronary aneurysms. Registration URL: https://www.umin.ac.jp/ctr/; Unique identifier: UMIN000010606.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Kawasaki disease (KD) is an acute systemic vasculitis (inflammation of the blood vessels) that mainly affects children. Symptoms include fever, chapped lips, strawberry tongue, red eyes (bulbar conjunctival injection), rash, redness, swollen hands and feet or skin peeling; and enlarged cervical lymph nodes. High fevers and systemic inflammation characterise the acute phase. Inflammation of the coronary arteries causes the most serious complication of the disease, coronary artery abnormalities (CAAs). The primary treatment is intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIG) and acetylsalicylic acid (ASA/aspirin), with doses and regimens differing between institutions. It is important to know which regimens are the safest and most effective in preventing complications. OBJECTIVES To evaluate the efficacy and safety of IVIG in treating and preventing cardiac consequences of Kawasaki disease. SEARCH METHODS The Cochrane Vascular Information Specialist searched the Cochrane Vascular Specialised Register, CENTRAL, MEDLINE, Embase, and CINAHL databases, and the World Health Organization International Clinical Trials Registry Platform and ClinicalTrials.gov trials registers to 26 April 2022. SELECTION CRITERIA We included randomised controlled trials (RCTs) investigating the use of IVIG for the treatment of KD. We included studies involving treatment for initial or refractory KD, or both. DATA COLLECTION AND ANALYSIS We used standard Cochrane methods. Our primary outcomes were incidence of CAAs and incidence of any adverse effects after treatment. Our secondary outcomes were acute coronary syndromes, duration of fever, need for additional treatment, length of hospital stay, and mortality. We used GRADE to assess the certainty of the evidence for each outcome. MAIN RESULTS We identified 31 RCTs involving a total of 4609 participants with KD. Studies compared IVIG with ASA, another dose or regimen of IVIG, prednisolone, or infliximab. The majority of studies reported on primary treatment, so those results are reported below. A limited number of studies investigated secondary or tertiary treatment in IVIG-resistant patients. Doses and regimens of IVIG infusion varied between studies, and all studies had some concerns related to risk of bias. Primary treatment with IVIG compared to ASA for people with KD Compared to ASA treatment, IVIG probably reduces the incidence of CAAs in people with KD up to 30 days (odds ratio (OR) 0.60, 95% confidence interval (CI) 0.41 to 0.87; 11 studies, 1437 participants; moderate-certainty evidence). The individual studies reported a range of adverse effects, but there was little to no difference in numbers of adverse effects between treatment groups (OR 0.57, 95% CI 0.17 to 1.89; 10 studies, 1376 participants; very low-certainty evidence). There was limited evidence for the incidence of acute coronary syndromes, so we are uncertain of any effects. Duration of fever days from treatment onset was probably shorter in the IVIG group (mean difference (MD) -4.00 days, 95% CI -5.06 to -2.93; 3 studies, 307 participants; moderate-certainty evidence). There was little or no difference between groups in need for additional treatment (OR 0.27, 95% CI 0.05 to 1.57; 3 studies, 272 participants; low-certainty evidence). No study reported length of hospital stay, and no deaths were reported in either group. Primary treatment with IVIG compared to different infusion regimens of IVIG for people with KD Higher-dose regimens of IVIG probably reduce the incidence of CAAs compared to medium- or lower-dose regimens of IVIG up to 30 days (OR 0.60, 95% CI 0.40 to 0.89; 8 studies, 1824 participants; moderate-certainty evidence). There was little to no difference in the number of adverse effects between groups (OR 1.11, 95% CI 0.52 to 2.37; 6 studies, 1659 participants; low-certainty evidence). No study reported on acute coronary syndromes. Higher-dose IVIG may reduce the duration of fever compared to medium- or lower-dose regimens (MD -0.71 days, 95% CI -1.36 to -0.06; 4 studies, 992 participants; low-certainty evidence). Higher-dose regimens may reduce the need for additional treatment (OR 0.29, 95% CI 0.10 to 0.88; 4 studies, 1125 participants; low-certainty evidence). We did not detect a clear difference in length of hospital stay between infusion regimens (MD -0.24, 95% CI -0.78 to 0.30; 3 studies, 752 participants; low-certainty evidence). One study reported mortality, and there was little to no difference detected between regimens (moderate-certainty evidence). Primary treatment with IVIG compared to prednisolone for people with KD The evidence comparing IVIG with prednisolone on incidence of CAA is very uncertain (OR 0.60, 95% CI 0.24 to 1.48; 2 studies, 140 participants; very low-certainty evidence), and there was little to no difference between groups in adverse effects (OR 4.18, 95% CI 0.19 to 89.48; 1 study; 90 participants; low-certainty evidence). We are very uncertain of the impact on duration of fever, as two studies reported this outcome differently and showed conflicting results. One study reported on acute coronary syndromes and mortality, finding little or no difference between groups (low-certainty evidence). No study reported the need for additional treatment or length of hospital stay. AUTHORS' CONCLUSIONS The included RCTs investigated a variety of comparisons, and the small number of events observed during the study periods limited detection of effects. The certainty of the evidence ranged from moderate to very low due to concerns related to risk of bias, imprecision, and inconsistency. The available evidence indicated that high-dose IVIG regimens are probably associated with a reduced risk of CAA formation compared to ASA or medium- or low-dose IVIG regimens. There were no clinically significant differences in incidence of adverse effects, which suggests there is little concern about the safety of IVIG. Compared to ASA, high-dose IVIG probably reduced the duration of fever, but there was little or no difference detected in the need for additional treatment. Compared to medium- or low-dose IVIG, there may be reduced duration of fever and reduced need for additional treatment. We were unable to draw any conclusions regarding acute coronary syndromes, mortality, or length of hospital stay, or for the comparison IVIG versus prednisolone. Our findings are in keeping with current guideline recommendations and evidence from long-term epidemiology studies.

Abstract
We report a search for cosmic-ray boosted dark matter with protons using the 0.37 megaton×years data collected at Super-Kamiokande experiment during the 1996-2018 period (SKI-IV phase). We searched for an excess of proton recoils above the atmospheric neutrino background from the vicinity of the Galactic Center. No such excess is observed, and limits are calculated for two reference models of dark matter with either a constant interaction cross section or through a scalar mediator. This is the first experimental search for boosted dark matter with hadrons using directional information. The results present the most stringent limits on cosmic-ray boosted dark matter and exclude the dark matter-nucleon elastic scattering cross section between 10^{-33}cm^{2} and 10^{-27}cm^{2} for dark matter mass from 1 MeV/c^{2} to 300 MeV/c^{2}.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Physiological skin properties of neonates and infants change drastically after birth and are implicated in the onset of atopic dermatitis and other diseases. Studies have measured physiological skin properties in infants; however, how these properties change over time remains unclear. No reports have measured ceramide in the stratum corneum of infants using confocal Raman spectroscopy; hence, we used it to measure the physiological properties of the skin, including ceramide, in infants. MATERIALS AND METHODS The water content and other factors in the skin of infants aged 0, 1, and 6 months were measured. All measurements were performed five times indoors at 22 ± 2°C and 50% ± 10% relative humidity in the middle of the calf at 4-µm distances, and their mean was calculated. RESULTS The water content of the area between the skin surface and superficial layers was the lowest in newborns as compared with other ages, and the deeper the skin layer, the higher the water content. The stratum corneum, evaluated using confocal Raman spectroscopy, was the thickest in newborns and gradually thinned with age. Its water content was the lowest in newborns. The levels of natural moisturizing factor, ceramide, and cholesterol were higher in newborns and tended to decrease with age. CONCLUSION This report is the first to evaluate ceramide in the stratum corneum of infants using confocal Raman spectroscopy and could help in conducting subsequent longitudinal measurements of physiological skin properties in neonates and infants.

Abstract
The one-neutron knockout from ^{52}Ca in inverse kinematics onto a proton target was performed at ∼230 MeV/nucleon combined with prompt γ spectroscopy. Exclusive quasifree scattering cross sections to bound states in ^{51}Ca and the momentum distributions corresponding to the removal of 1f_{7/2} and 2p_{3/2} neutrons were measured. The cross sections, interpreted within the distorted-wave impulse approximation reaction framework, are consistent with a shell closure at the neutron number N=32, found as strong as at N=28 and N=34 in Ca isotopes from the same observables. The analysis of the momentum distributions leads to a difference of the root-mean-square radii of the neutron 1f_{7/2} and 2p_{3/2} orbitals of 0.61(23) fm, in agreement with the modified-shell-model prediction of 0.7 fm suggesting that the large root-mean-square radius of the 2p_{3/2} orbital in neutron-rich Ca isotopes is responsible for the unexpected linear increase of the charge radius with the neutron number.

Abstract
Doppler-backscattering (DBS) has been used in several fusion plasma devices because it can measure the perpendicular velocity of electron density perturbation v⊥, the radial electric field Er, and the perpendicular wavenumber spectrum S(k⊥) with high wavenumber and spatial resolution. In particular, recently constructed frequency comb DBS systems enable observation of turbulent phenomena at multiple observation points in the radial direction. A dual-comb microwave DBS system has been developed for the large helical device plasma measurement. Since it is desirable to control the gain of each frequency-comb separately, a frequency-comb DBS system was developed with a function to adjust the gain of the scattered signal intensity of each channel separately. A correction processing method was also developed to correct the amplitude ratio and the phase difference between the in-phase and quadrature-phase signals of the scattered signals. As a result, the error in Doppler-shift estimation required to observe vertical velocity and the radial electric field was reduced, which enables more precise measurements.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES In the present study, we aimed to determine the changes in the administration rate of benzodiazepines for pediatric patients with suspected nonconvulsive status epilepticus (NCSE) before and after the introduction of simplified electroencephalography (sEEG) in the emergency department. METHODS This retrospective cohort study included patients who were younger than 18 years and were admitted to the emergency department from August 1, 2009, to July 31, 2017, with altered level of consciousness and nonpurposeful movement of eyes or extremities after the cessation of convulsive status epilepticus. Patients with apparent persistent convulsions, those who were fully conscious on arrival, and those who were transferred from another hospital were excluded. The patients were categorized into pre and post groups based on the introduction of sEEG, and benzodiazepine administration was compared between the 2 groups. RESULTS During the study period, 464 patients with status epilepticus visited our emergency department and 69 and 93 patients fulfilling the study criteria were categorized into the pre and post groups, respectively. There were no significant differences in patient background characteristics between the 2 groups. Simplified electroencephalography was recorded in 52 patients in the post group. Benzodiazepines were administered in 44 of 69 patients (63.8%) in the pre group and 44 of 93 (47.3%) in the post group, and the benzodiazepine administration rate was significantly decreased after the introduction of sEEG ( P = 0.04). The hospitalization rate was significantly lower in the post group, but there were no significant differences in the rates of intensive care unit admission, reconvulsion after discharge, and final diagnoses between the 2 groups. CONCLUSIONS Simplified electroencephalography might aid in determining the need for anticonvulsant treatment for suspected NCSE in pediatric patients. Albeit not a definitive diagnostic tool, sEEG might be a reliable choice in the evaluation of pediatric patients with suspected NCSE.

Abstract
Radium is refocused from the viewpoint of an environmental pollutant and cancer therapy using alpha particles, where it mainly exists as a hydrated ion. We investigated the radium hydration structure and the dynamics of water molecules by extended X-ray absorption fine structure (EXAFS) spectroscopy and ab initio molecular dynamics (AIMD) simulation. The EXAFS experiment showed that the coordination number and average distance between radium ion and the oxygen atoms in the first hydration shell are 9.2 ± 1.9 and 2.87 ± 0.06 Å, respectively. They are consistent with those obtained from the AIMD simulations, 8.4 and 2.88 Å. The AIMD simulations also revealed that the water molecules in the first hydration shell of radium are less structured and more mobile than those of barium, which is an analogous element of radium. Our results indicate that radium can be more labile than barium in terms of interactions with water. Extended X-ray absorption fine structure (EXAFS) measurement revealed the hydration structure of radium ion Ab initio molecular dynamics (AIMD) simulation brought consistent results AIMD revealed the structural and dynamic properties of the water molecules The hydration structure of radium ion is more labile than that of barium ion

Abstract
Abstract
Study question
Do oocytes with narrow perivitelline space have poor clinical outcomes after ICSI?
Summary answer
After ICSI, oocytes with narrow perivitelline space have an increased degeneration rate and decreased rates of 2PN and embryo development.
What is known already
Several studies reported that oocytes with dysmorphologies, such as zona pellucida (ZP) abnormalities and cytoplasmic inclusions (vacuoles, smooth endoplasmic reticulum cluster, refractile bodies), have poor developmental potential in IVF/ICSI. In research on perivitelline space (PVS), many studies have focused on the PVS with fragmentation as well as large PVS. On the other hand, oocytes with narrow perivitelline space (narrow PVS oocytes) are considered to have an immature cytoplasm, but there are few reports on the relationship between narrow PVS oocytes and clinical outcomes. In this study, we retrospectively analyzed the effect of narrow PVS oocytes on ICSI outcomes.
Study design, size, duration
This retrospective single-center study analyzed 11149 MII oocytes that underwent ICSI between January 2018 and October 2021. We observed the PVS of MII oocytes during ICSI, and oocytes with sufficient PVS between the ZP and cytoplasm were determined to be non-narrow PVS oocytes. Oocytes without sufficient PVS from any angle (PVS was observed only around the first polar body) were defined as narrow PVS oocytes.
Participants/materials, setting, methods
After ICSI, oocytes were cultured in ONESTEP medium (NakaMedical, Tokyo, Japan). Embryos that developed into blastocysts were used for single vitrified-warmed blastocyst transfer (SVBT). We compared the rates of degeneration, 2PN, cleavage, blastocyst formation, good-grade (Gardner’s criteria ≥BB) blastocyst, top-grade blastocyst (Gardner’s criteria=AA), and clinical pregnancy (presence of a gestational sac) between oocytes with narrow and non-narrow PVS. Logistic regression analysis with consideration of patient age, BMI, and basal AMH was performed for each outcome.
Main results and the role of chance
Of the 11149 MII oocytes, 570 and 10579 were determined to be narrow and non-narrow PVS oocytes, respectively. Narrow PVS oocytes showed significantly higher degeneration rates (aOR: 1.52, 95% CI: 1.12–2.06, p<0.01) and lower 2PN rates (aOR: 0.77, 95% CI: 0.64–0.93, p<0.01) after ICSI compared to non-narrow PVS oocytes. Furthermore, rates of cleavage (aOR: 0.52, 95% CI: 0.31–0.87, p<0.05), blastocyst formation (aOR: 0.56, 95% CI: 0.45–0.70, p<0.01), good-grade blastocyst formation (aOR: 0.59, 95% CI: 0.46–0.76, p<0.01), and top-grade blastocyst formation (aOR:0.625, 95% CI:0.45–0.86, p<0.01), were significantly lower in the narrow PVS oocytes.
Of the blastocysts developed, 32 and 1439 blastocysts from narrow PVS oocytes and non-narrow PVS oocytes, respectively, were used for SVBT. The clinical pregnancy rate was not significantly different between blastocysts developed from narrow (aOR: 0.52, 95% CI, 0.22–1.22, p = 0.131) and non-narrow PVS oocytes. However, in blastocysts developed from narrow PVS oocytes, clinical pregnancy was confirmed only in top-grade blastocysts (58.8% [10/17]), and blastocysts of other grades did not result in pregnancy (0% [0/15]).
Limitations, reasons for caution
The limitation of this study is that it was a retrospective analysis conducted at a single IVF center. It is necessary to confirm the reproducibility at other facilities because the evaluation of PVS differs among embryologists and IVF centers. Therefore, a prospective multicenter study is needed.
Wider implications of the findings
We found that the narrow PVS oocytes showed poor outcomes after ICSI. While a good pregnancy rate could be expected if a top-grade blastocyst from such oocytes was obtained and transferred, the embryonic development rate of narrow PVS oocytes is low.

Abstract
Abstract
Study question
This study aimed to analyze whether hyaluronan as an alternative to polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) for sperm immobilization, aspiration, and injection into the ooplasm improves ICSI outcomes.
Summary answer
The use of hyaluronan solution as an alternative to PVP improves the blastocyst formation rate and good quality blastocyst formation rate compared to PVP.
What is known already
The PVP solution facilitates ICSI procedures, such as sperm immobilization, aspiration, and injection into the ooplasm. However, it has been reported that injection of a small amount of PVP along with the sperm into the ooplasm negatively affects subsequent embryo development. Hyaluronan is a natural component of the extracellular matrix of the cumulus-oocyte complex. Balaban et al. (2003) reported that hyaluronan can replace PVP during ICSI procedures in the early embryo transfer cycle without adversely affecting pregnancy outcomes. This study analyzed whether using hyaluronan-based solution for the ICSI procedure would improves blastocyst development compared with ICSI using PVP.
Study design, size, duration
This retrospective study analyzed clinical medical reports at Takahashi Women’s Clinic, Japan. We included 4002 oocytes retrieved from 411 patients under 39 years of age who underwent ICSI using autologous oocytes between December 2019 and August 2021. Of the oocytes used for ICSI, 1909 underwent sperm aspiration and injection into the ooplasm with hyaluronan (Sperm Slow; Origio), and 2093 oocytes with 7% PVP (NakaMedical). We did not perform preimplantation genetic testing-aneuploidy for any cycles.
Participants/materials, setting, methods
We used PVP droplets for sperm selection under 400× magnification in both groups. In hyaluronan-ICSI, the selected sperm were transferred to a hyaluronan droplet and washed three times. The sperm was then aspirated with hyaluronan, and ICSI was performed. In PVP-ICSI, all procedures were performed using PVP. The ICSI and embryo transfer outcomes were compared between hyaluronan-ICSI and PVP-ICSI by logistic regression analysis considering patient age, BMI, and basal level of anti-mullerian hormone.
Main results and the role of chance
Normal fertilization rates were 74.3% (1556/2093) in PVP-ICSI and 75.5% (1442/1909) in hyaluronan-ICSI. There was no significant difference in the normal fertilization rate between PVP-ICSI and hyaluronan-ICSI groups (p = 0.437, aOR:1.06, 95% CI: 0.92–1.22). We cultured 1323 2PN embryos in PVP-ICSI and 1237 2PN embryos in hyaluronan-ICSI until the blastocyst stage. Blastocyst formation rates were 48.1% for PVP-ICSI and 52.3% for hyaluronan-ICSI, and this difference was statistically significant (aOR, 1.20; 95% CI: 1.02–1.40; p = 0.024). Moreover, the good grade (Gardner criteria ≧BB) blastocyst formation rates were significantly higher in the hyaluronan-ICSI group (36.9% and 41.0%, aOR: 1.21, 95% CI: 1.03–1.42, p = 0.022). During the study period, we performed 163 and 169 cryo-thawed blastocyst transfer cycles in PVP-ICSI and hyaluronan-ICSI, respectively. The clinical pregnancy rate (50.9% vs. 54.4%, aOR: 1.19, 95% CI: 0.77–1.83, p = 0.443) and miscarriage rate (19.3% vs. 13.0%, aOR: 0.66, 95% CI: 0.3–1.44, p = 0.295) after embryo transfer were not significantly different between PVP-ICSI and hyaluronan-ICSI.
Limitations, reasons for caution
The study was conducted at a single IVF center, and the oocytes included in this study were collected from patients aged < 39 years. Embryo transfer result is based on ongoing pregnancy, while the live birth data for all pregnancies are not yet available.
Wider implications of the findings
Hyaluronan facilitates ICSI procedures such as sperm immobilization, aspiration, and injection. Moreover, the hyaluronan improves blastocyst development. The present study indicates that using hyaluronan as an alternative to PVP during the ICSI procedure is recommended.

Abstract
Abstract
Study question
Does the post-thaw use of a GM-CSF-containing medium improve blastocyst transfer outcomes in all blastocysts in a frozen-thawed embryo transfer cycle?
Summary answer
The use of a GM-CSF-containing medium at post-thawing especially improves the live birth (LB) rate of morphologically poor blastocysts in a frozen-thawed embryo transfer cycle.
What is known already
GM-CSF, a cytokine secreted by the epithelial cells of the female reproductive tract, plays an important role in embryonic development, implantation, and subsequent development in humans and animals. In humans, GM-CSF increases the blastocyst developmental rate and decreases the chances of miscarriage. Previously, we reported that the use of a GM-CSF-containing medium for blastocyst recovery culture after thawing improves the clinical pregnancy (CP) rate in a frozen-thawed blastocyst transfer cycle (ESHRE, 2019). However, it is unclear whether GM-CSF improves embryo transfer outcomes in all blastocysts. In addition, it is necessary to accumulate information regarding its effects on neonatal outcomes.
Study design, size, duration
We performed a retrospective observational study to compare two groups: a GM-CSF group (GM-CSF-containing medium; SAGE-1step GM-CSF, Cooper Surgical) and a control group (GM-CSF-free medium; ONE STEP Medium, NAKA Medical). We analyzed 566 blastocyst transfer cycles in patients aged 30–39 years who underwent frozen-thawed single embryo transfer at Takahashi Women’s Clinic (Japan) from February 2018 to February 2019. Chromosomal analysis was not performed.
Participants/materials, setting, methods
We used a control medium for blastocyst culture and a Cryotop safety kit for blastocyst vitrification. After thawing, we cultured blastocysts in a GM-CSF-containing medium or control medium for 3–5 h until transfer. Embryo transfer outcomes were compared. We performed the multivariate logistic regression analysis(MVRA) to adjust confounding bias. A subgroup analysis was also performed of morphological grade according to Gardner’s criteria (excellent: ≥AA, good: blastocysts containing B, poor: blastocysts containing C).
Main results and the role of chance
There were no difference in patient background between the two groups. The CP and LB rates in the GM-CSF group and control group were 54.3% vs. 42.6% and 42.9% vs. 31.1%. The MVRA adjusted by confounding factors(patient age, BMI, basal AMH, blastocyst grade, day of vitrification, number of previous failed ETs, and assisted hatching) demonstrated that CP (p = 0.0193; adjusted odds ratio [aOR], 1.55) and LB rate (p = 0.0080; aOR, 1.67) were significantly higher in GM-CSF group than that of control group. Moreover, the CP and LB rates of the GM-CSF group and control group were: excellent-blastocysts at 62.0% vs. 58.8% (p = 0.5955; OR, 1.14), 52.7% vs. 45.6% (p = 0.2466, aOR:1.33), good-blastocysts 52.1% vs. 37.6% (p = 0.0561; OR, 1.80), 38.0% vs. 26.6% (p = 0.1072; OR, 1.69), and poor-blastocysts 38.9% vs. 17.9% (p = 0.0115; OR, 2.92), 25.9% vs. 9.0% (p = 0.0164; OR, 3.56). A GM-CSF-containing medium significantly improved the CP and LB rates of poor-grade blastocysts. There were no significant differences between the GM-CSF group and control group in the male ratio (52.7% vs. 51.0%, p = 0.8057), pregnancy duration (38.8±1.4 weeks vs. 38.5±1.8 weeks, p = 0.2558), cesarean section rate (38.2% vs. 40.8%, p = 0.6979), birth weight (3133±466g vs. 3037±437g, p = 0.1281), and congenital anomaly rate (0.91% vs. 2.04%, p = 0.6026).
Limitations, reasons for caution
This was a single-center, retrospective study. Chromosomal abnormalities in embryos were not considered; however, the LB rate among babies was analyzed. The basic chemical composition of the culture medium (salt concentration, glucose concentration, etc.) used in the control group was different from that of the GM-CSF-containing medium.
Wider implications of the findings
We found that the use of a GM-CSF-containing medium improved the clinical pregnancy and live birth rates of poor-grade blastocysts without affecting the babies. This may be an effective therapeutic strategy for some patients as it may allow for the effective use of poor-grade euploid blastocysts.

Abstract
The effects of allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) on systemic chronic active Epstein-Barr virus infection (sCAEBV) are yet to be analyzed in a large number of patients. Using the Japanese registry database, Transplant Registry Unification Management Program, we investigated the outcomes of 102 sCAEBV patients who underwent allo-HSCT. The median age at HSCT was 21 years, and the three-year overall survival (3-year OS) rate was 72.5%. Of the 90 patients whose viral load after allo-HSCT was evaluated, 56 (62.2%) achieved a virological complete response, defined by the complete resolution of disease activity with a significant decrease in EBV-DNA in peripheral blood. The multivariate Cox proportional hazard model indicated that advanced age, in adolescents and young adults (AYA) (age, 15-39) and adults (age, ≥40 years) was a risk factor of poor OS. The hazard ratios (HRs) of the AYA and adult groups were 10.87 (95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.98-59.56, p = .006) and 15.93 (95% CI: 2.45-103.8, p = .004), respectively. Disease activity (HR 5.74), elevated soluble IL-2 receptor (sIL-2R) (≥ median, 691 U/mL) at HSCT (HR 6.93), and conditioning without radiotherapy (HR 3.53) were also independently associated with poor survival. Notably, 79% of radiotherapy doses were less than 6 Gy. Regardless of the presence of hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis, the group with a high sIL-2R level (≥2000 U/mL) showed a poorer prognosis. Although allo-HSCT is the only curative therapy for sCAEBV, treatment strategies need to be improved for high-risk patients, especially those with high levels of sIL-2R.
