Abstract
PURPOSE This study aimed to examine the potential benefit of sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitors for patients with metabolic dysfunction-associated fatty liver disease (MAFLD) and diabetes mellitus (DM) using a real-world database. METHODS We analyzed individuals with MAFLD and DM newly initiated on SGLT2 or dipeptidyl peptidase 4 (DPP4) inhibitors from a large-scale administrative claims database. The primary outcome was the change in the fatty liver index (FLI) assessed using a linear mixed-effects model from the initiation of SGLT2 or DPP4 inhibitors. A propensity score-matching algorithm was used to compare the change in FLI among SGLT2 and DPP4 inhibitors. RESULTS After propensity score matching, 6547 well-balanced pairs of SGLT2 and 6547 DPP4 inhibitor users were created. SGLT2 inhibitor use was associated with a greater decline in FLI than DPP4 inhibitor use (difference at 1-year measurement, - 3.8 [95% CI - 4.7 to - 3.0]). The advantage of SGLT2 inhibitor use over DPP4 inhibitor use for improvement in FLI was consistent across subgroups. The relationship between SGLT2 inhibitors and amelioration of FLI was comparable between individual SGLT2 inhibitors. CONCLUSIONS Our analysis using large-scale real-world data demonstrated the potential advantage of SGLT2 inhibitors over DPP4 inhibitors in patients with MAFLD and DM.

Abstract
Recent discoveries related to the habitability and astrobiological relevance of the outer Solar System have expanded our understanding of where and how life may have originated. As a result, the Icy Worlds of the outer Solar System have become among the highest priority targets for future spacecraft missions dedicated to astrobiology-focused and/or direct life detection objectives. This, in turn, has led to a renewed interest in planetary protection concerns and policies for the exploration of these worlds and has been a topic of discussion within the COSPAR (Committee on Space Research) Panel on Planetary Protection. This paper summarizes the results of those discussions, reviewing the current knowledge and the history of planetary protection considerations for Icy Worlds as well as suggesting ways forward. Based on those discussions, we therefore suggest to (1) Establish a new definition for Icy Worlds for Planetary Protection that captures the outer Solar System moons and dwarf planets like Pluto, but excludes more primitive bodies such as comets, centaurs, and asteroids: Icy Worlds in our Solar System are defined as all bodies with an outermost layer that is believed to be greater than 50 % water ice by volume and have enough mass to assume a nearly round shape. (2) Establish indices for the lower limits of Earth life with regards to water activity (LLAw) and temperature (LLT) and apply them into all areas of the COSPAR Planetary Protection Policy. These values are currently set at 0.5 and -28 °C and were originally established for defining Mars Special Regions; (3) Establish LLT as a parameter to assign categorization for Icy Worlds missions. The suggested categorization will have a 1000-year period of biological exploration, to be applied to all Icy Worlds and not just Europa and Enceladus as is currently the case. (4) Have all missions consider the possibility of impact. Transient thermal anomalies caused by impact would be acceptable so long as there is less than 10-4 probability of a single microbe reaching deeper environments where temperature is >LLT in the period of biological exploration. (5) Restructure or remove Category II* from the policy as it becomes largely redundant with this new approach, (6) Establish that any sample return from an Icy World should be Category V restricted Earth return.

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

Abstract
BACKGROUND 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
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
Quantum spin liquid is a nontrivial magnetic state of longstanding interest, in which spins are strongly correlated and entangled but do not order; further intriguing is its doped version, which possibly hosts strange metal and unconventional superconductivity. A promising candidate of the doped spin liquid is a triangular-lattice organic conductor, κ-(BEDT-TTF)4Hg2.89Br8, recently found to hold metallicity, spin-liquid-like magnetism, and BEC-like superconductivity. The nature of the metallic state with the spin-liquid behaviour is awaiting to be further clarified. Here, we report the thermoelectric signature that mobile holes in the spin liquid background are in a quantum critical state and it pertains to the BEC-like superconductivity. The Seebeck coefficient divided by temperature, S/T, is enhanced on cooling with logarithmic divergence indicative of quantum criticality. Furthermore, the logarithmic enhancement is correlated with the superconducting transition temperature under pressure variation, and the temperature and magnetic field profile of S/T upon the superconducting transition change with pressure in a consistent way with the previously suggested BEC-BCS crossover. The present results reveal that the quantum criticality in a doped spin liquid emerges in a phase, not at a point, and is involved in the unconventional BEC-like nature.

Abstract
The KamLAND-Zen experiment has provided stringent constraints on the neutrinoless double-beta (0νββ) decay half-life in ^{136}Xe using a xenon-loaded liquid scintillator. We report an improved search using an upgraded detector with almost double the amount of xenon and an ultralow radioactivity container, corresponding to an exposure of 970 kg yr of ^{136}Xe. These new data provide valuable insight into backgrounds, especially from cosmic muon spallation of xenon, and have required the use of novel background rejection techniques. We obtain a lower limit for the 0νββ decay half-life of T_{1/2}^{0ν}>2.3×10^{26} yr at 90% C.L., corresponding to upper limits on the effective Majorana neutrino mass of 36-156 meV using commonly adopted nuclear matrix element calculations.

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 Muscle response in older adults is believed to decrease with maximal muscle strength, although it has not been adequately assessed; further, the relationship between frailty and muscle response remains unexamined. OBJECTIVES This study aimed to develop a practical method for measuring muscle response using grip strength in older adults and to clarify the relationship between frailty and grip strength response. DESIGN, SETTING, AND PARTICIPANTS We performed a cross-sectional, clinical, observational study. A total of 248 patients (94 men and 154 women, mean age: 78.2 years) who visited the outpatient unit in the Integrated Healthy Aging Clinic of our Hospital for the first time were enrolled. MEASUREMENTS Using a grip strength measuring device originally developed by us, we measured grip strength response indices, such as reaction time, time constant, rate of force development (response speed), and maximum grip strength. Grip strength response indices were compared among three groups (robust, pre-frail, and frail) according to the Fried and Kihon checklist assessments for frailty. RESULTS Based on Fried's assessment, marked differences were found between groups not only in maximal grip strength but also in response time and response speed. Based on the Kihon checklist assessment, there was no significant difference in response time; however, a considerable difference in response speed for the left hand was observed. Moreover, according to the Kihon checklist assessment, some cases showed differences in muscle response although not in maximal muscle strength. CONCLUSIONS The response speed of grip strength was suggested to decrease with frailty. The results suggest that measurement of grip strength response in both hands is useful to examine the relationship between frailty and grip strength response.

Abstract
PURPOSE To identify longitudinal changes in life-space mobility and the factors influencing it among chronic, stable post-stroke patients. MATERIALS AND METHODS This prospective study included Japanese post-stroke patients who received day-care rehabilitation services and could undergo three life-space mobility assessments (at baseline, 12, and 24 months) for over 2 years, using the Life-Space Assessment (LSA) tool. Physical function, cognitive function, and activities of daily living were assessed by self-selected comfortable gait speed, Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE), and Functional Independence Measure Motor subscale (FIM motor) scores, respectively, in addition to age, sex, time from onset, stroke type, and comorbidities. A multivariable linear mixed-effects model was used to examine the longitudinal changes in LSA scores and associated factors. RESULTS A total of 89 participants were enrolled. At baseline, the median age was 74 years, 33% were women, and median time from onset was 75 months. The LSA scores significantly declined over the two-year period. In the multivariate linear mixed-effects model adjusted for clinical characteristics, comfortable gait speed and age were significantly associated with changes in the LSA score, independent of FIM motor scores and MMSE scores. CONCLUSIONS Life-space mobility may persistently decline, and gait function may be a determinant influencing these changes in community-dwelling chronic post-stroke patients.Implications for RehabilitationLimited life-space mobility leads to less frequent participation in social activities and an increased risk of adverse health outcomes such as hospitalization.Changes in life-space mobility should be considered in the rehabilitation care plan for chronic post-stroke patients.Life-space mobility may decline persistently in stable post-stroke patients, even if they have periodically received day-care rehabilitation services.Since gait speed is a predominant factor affecting life-space mobility, regular assessment of gait function and appropriate strategies are needed to prevent deterioration of gait speed in chronic post-stroke patients.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Cryoballoon ablation (CBA) is a useful treatment for pulmonary vein isolation (PVI). Some cases, however, are difficult to treat and may require multiple freezing procedures and/or touch-up ablation. Although several predictors of CBA difficulty have been reported, no report has been able to assess the spatial location and morphology of the left atrium (LA) and pulmonary veins (PVs). A polygonal mesh is a collection of vertices, edges, and faces that defines the shape of a polyhedral object, and is able to represent a spatial location with a small amount of information. We hypothesized that a deep learning model that learns mesh representation datasets could more accurately detect the CBA difficulty and that we could establish a novel evaluation method in CBA.
Purpose
The aim of this study was to create a model to predict CBA difficulty with a 3D deep learning model using polygonal mesh representation.
Methods and results
All the 140 patients who underwent CBA for drug-resistant atrial fibrillation between January 2015 and January 2022 were included. A 28-mm cryoballoon (Arctic Front Advance, Medtronic) was used in all cases. We defined CBA difficulty as requiring a touch-up ablation procedure to create complete PVI. We converted the volume data in DICOM format of the computed tomography images of PVs and LA to obj file format (shown in Figure 1), which supports the definition of the geometry for object surfaces using polygonal meshes. Next, we developed a deep learning model that could learn polygonal meshes and classify whether the CBA required touch-up ablation or not. Only a training dataset is used to train the deep learning model, and finally, a test dataset is used to evaluate the model metrics. The accuracy, area under the ROC curve, recall, precision, and f1-score of the deep learning model using the test dataset was 86.5%, 87.7%, 66.7%, 75.0%, 70.6%, respectively.
Conclusions
We developed a 3D deep learning model that can detect a difficulty in CBA using polygonal mesh representation. By predicting difficult cases in advance, we will be able to develop strategies to increase the success rate.

Abstract
Clinical samples from 123 foals with suspected rhodococcosis submitted to the Veterinary Microbiological Diagnostic Centre of the Faculty of Veterinary Medicine between 1993 and 2006 were tested for the presence of the virulence gene vapA. Of the 123 samples, 120 were vapA-positive and 3 vapA-negative Rhodococcus equi were isolated. The 120 vapA-positive R. equi were isolated from 70 tracheal wash, 19 lung tissues, 7 lymph nodes, 6 synovial fluids, 13 abscesses or pus and single isolates from the uterus, gut, cerebrospinal fluid, abdomen fluid and faeces. Of the 120 isolates, 46 were from Dutch warmblood horses, 23 from Friesian horses, 14 from Trotters, 4 from Holsteiners, 3 from Arab breed, 2 from ponies, 1 from a Welsh pony and 27 from undefined breed horses. Using plasmid profile analysis of the 120 isolates, 117 isolates contained the 85-kb type I plasmid, 2 contained the 87-kb type I plasmid and 1 contained the novel 52-kb non-mobilizable virulence plasmid reported recently. These results showed that the virulent R. equi strains harbouring a virulence plasmid of 85-kb type I or 87-kb type I, which have been detected in clinical isolates from five European countries, are widespread in the Netherlands. This is the first report of plasmid types of clinical R. equi isolates in the Netherlands.

Abstract
PURPOSE The prognostic value of F-18 fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT) taken immediately after completion of radiotherapy in lung cancer patients is not well known. The purpose of this study is to assess the prognostic value of PET/CT taken immediately after completion of radiotherapy in lung cancer patients. MATERIALS AND METHODS Patients with primary lung cancer planned to undergo concurrent chemoradiotherapy were enrolled. Patients underwent PET/CT scans at 3 time points: before radiotherapy, within 24hours of completing radiotherapy (im-PET/CT), and 2-9 months after radiotherapy (post-PET/CT). Maximum standardized uptake value (SUVmax) was obtained. A post-PET/CT-SUVmax cut-off of 2.5 was determined as radiotherapy success. RESULTS Nineteen patients were enrolled. im-PET/CT-SUVmax for patients in the high post-PET/CT-SUVmax group was significantly higher than that of the low group (P=0.004). Receiver operator curve analysis indicated that im-PET/CT-SUVmax of 4.35 was an optimal cut-off value to discriminate between the two groups. Multivariable analysis showed that a high im-PET/CT-SUVmax was significantly associated with a high post-PET/CT-SUVmax (P=0.003). CONCLUSION PET/CT-SUVmax taken immediately following radiotherapy was associated with that evaluated 2-9 months after radiotherapy.

Abstract
BackgroundElevated serum IgG4 levels are one of the characteristic findings in immunoglobulin G4 (IgG4)-related disease (IgG4-RD). Serum IgG4 levels have an impact to a certain extent on the diagnosis of IgG4-RD although there are some issues in their sensitivity and specificity. In the reports from Japan, China, USA, and Europe, elevated serum IgG4 levels were reported to be observed in 83-97% of patients with IgG4-RD [1-5]. In the past investigations of hospital patients, some studies reported that 10-15% of hospital patients with elevated serum IgG4 levels had IgG4-RD [6,7]. However, in general adults with no symptom, investigations of prevalence of elevated serum IgG4 levels and/or IgG4-RD have rarely been conducted.ObjectivesThis study aimed to investigate the frequency of serum IgG4 elevation in the general Japanese population and its associated factors using data from resident examinations.MethodsWe measured the serum IgG4 levels in 1,204 residents who underwent a general medical examination in Ishikawa prefecture, Japan. Logistic regression analysis was used to search for factors related to elevated serum IgG4 levels. Secondary examinations were conducted for participants in whom elevation was identified.ResultsThe mean serum IgG4 level was 44 mg/dL, and elevated serum IgG4 levels were observed in 42 patients (3.5%). Univariate logistic regression analyses showed that male sex, older age, lower estimated glomerular filtration rates based on cystatin C (eGFR-CysC), serum high-density lipoprotein cholesterol levels, and higher hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) levels were associated with elevated serum IgG4 levels. Subgroup analyses in men showed that older age, lower eGFR-CysC levels, and higher serum HbA1c levels were associated with elevated serum IgG4 levels. In contrast, the analyses in women found no significant factors. One of the 10 residents who underwent secondary examinations was diagnosed with possible IgG4-related retroperitoneal fibrosis.ConclusionIn the general population, elevated serum IgG4 levels are more common in elderly men, which is similar to the epidemiological features of IgG4-RD.References[1]Inoue D, et al.

Abstract
A new type of self-sustained divertor oscillation is discovered in the Large Helical Device stellarator, where the peripheral plasma is detached from material diverters by means of externally applied perturbation fields. The divertor oscillation is found to be a self-regulation of an isolated magnetic field structure (the magnetic island) width induced by a drastic change in a poloidal inhomogeneity of the plasma radiation across the detachment-attachment transitions. A predator-prey model between the magnetic island width and a self-generated local plasma current (the bootstrap current) is introduced to describe the divertor oscillation, which successfully reproduces the experimental observations.

Abstract
We assess the magnetic field configuration in modern fusion devices by comparing experiments with the same heating power, between a stellarator and a heliotron. The key role of turbulence is evident in the optimized stellarator, while neoclassical processes largely determine the transport in the heliotron device. Gyrokinetic simulations elucidate the underlying mechanisms promoting stronger ion scale turbulence in the stellarator. Similar plasma performances in these experiments suggests that neoclassical and turbulent transport should both be optimized in next step reactor designs.

Abstract
In this study, we performed a year-long in situ incubation experiment on a common ferrous sulfide (Fe-S) mineral, pyrite, at the oxidative deep seafloor in the hydrothermal vent field in the Izu-Bonin arc, Japan, and characterized its microbiological and biogeochemical properties to understand the microbial alteration processes of the pyrite, focusing on Fe(II) oxidation. The microbial community analysis of the incubated pyrite showed that the domain Bacteria heavily dominated over Archaea compared with that of the ambient seawater, and Alphaproteobacteria and Gammaproteobacteria distinctively codominated at the class level. The mineralogical characterization by surface-sensitive Fe X-ray absorption near-edge structure (XANES) analysis revealed that specific Fe(III) hydroxides (schwertmannite and ferrihydrite) were locally formed at the pyrite surface as the pyrite alteration products. Based on the Fe(III) hydroxide species and proportion, we thermodynamically calculated the pH value at the pyrite surface to be pH 4.9 to 5.7, indicating that the acidic condition derived from pyrite alteration was locally formed at the surface against neutral ambient seawater. This acidic microenvironment at the pyrite surface might explain the distinct microbial communities found in our pyrite samples. Also, the acidity at the pyrite surface indicates that the abiotic Fe(II) oxidation rate was much limited at the pyrite surface kinetically, 3.9 × 103- to 1.6 × 105-fold lower than that in the ambient seawater. Moreover, nanoscale characterization of microbial biomolecules using carbon near-edge X-ray absorption fine-structure (NEXAFS) analysis showed that the sessile cells attached to pyrite excreted the acidic polysaccharide-rich extracellular polymeric substances at the pyrite surface, which can lead to the promotion of biogenic Fe(II) oxidation and pyrite alteration. IMPORTANCE Pyrite is one of the most common Fe-S minerals found in submarine hydrothermal environments. Previous studies demonstrated that the Fe-S mineral can be a suitable host for Fe(II)-oxidizing microbes in hydrothermal environments; however, the details of microbial Fe(II) oxidation processes with Fe-S mineral alteration are not well known. The spectroscopic and thermodynamic examination in the present study suggests that a moderately acidic pH condition was locally formed at the pyrite surface during pyrite alteration at the seafloor due to proton releases with Fe(II) and sulfidic S oxidations. Following previous studies, the abiotic Fe(II) oxidation rate significantly decreases with a decrease in pH, but the biotic (microbial) Fe(II) oxidation rate is not sensitive to the pH decrease. Thus, our findings clearly suggest that the pyrite surface is a unique microenvironment where abiotic Fe(II) oxidation is limited and biotic Fe(II) oxidation is more prominent than that in neutral ambient seawater.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
A successful Radiofrequency (RF) ablation of ventricular tachycardia (VT) can prevent VT recurrence. It has been reported that VT non-inducibility at the end of RF ablation is associated with less likely VT recurrence in ischemic cardiomyopathy (ICM) and non-ICM (NCIM). However, it is not clear whether we should use VT non-inducibility as routine end point in RF ablation of VT.
Purpose
The aim of this study was to evaluate VT recurrence in patients who couldn't be achieved VT non-inducibility at the end of RF ablation and the factors attributed to VT recurrence in ICM and NICM patients.
Methods
Between January 2009 and April 2020, 84 consecutive patients (ICM: 34, NICM: 50) underwent RF ablation for drug-resistant VT in our hospital. VT non-inducibility was defined as any ventricular tachy-arrhythmia, including clinical VT, non-clinical VT, and VF, was not induced by programed stimuli at the end of session. Non-inducibility was achieved in 37 patients but it was not achieved in 47 patients (ICM: 18, NICM: 29). To evaluate the validity of “non-inducibility” as an end point of VT ablation, 47 patients (male: 40, mean age: 66±15 years) in whom non-inducibility of any ventricular tachyarrhythmia was not achieved were studied. The primary endpoint was recurrence of any sustained VT and VF during follow up period (mean follow-up period was 1.4 (range, 0.0, 2.0) years.)
Results
Mean left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) was 36±13%. Epicardial ablation was required in 8 patients. 32 patients had electrical storm at the time of ablation. Among them, 21 patients had VT recurrence and 26 patients had non-VT recurrence during follow-up period. VT recurrence rate was significantly lower in patients with LVEF≥35% than those with LVEF<35% (HR=0.31, 95% CI 1.25–9.92). Multivariate survival analysis identified LVEF≥35% (HR=0.34, 95% CI 0.10–0.98) and ablation of VT isthmus (HR=0.18, 95% CI 0.02–0.78) as independent predictors of non-VT recurrence.
Conclusions
Even if non-inducibility of any ventricular tachyarrhythmia wasn't achieved at the end of ablation, the patients with LVEF≥35% or who had ablated of VT isthmus might prevent VT recurrence. The validity of non-inducibility of any ventricular tachyarrhythmia should be evaluated in each patient's background.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Despite recently developed clinical therapies, vascular remodelling in pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) progressively worsen. Hemodynamic unloading has been proposed to normalize the remodelled pulmonary vascular structures in the lungs. Recently, it has been reported that cellular senescence was associated with the irreversibility of pulmonary vascular structures after hemodynamic unloading.
Purpose
This study aims to elucidate the role of senescent endothelial cells (ECs) in the pathogenesis of PAH.
Methods
We generated EC-specific progeroid mice in which ECs undergo premature senescence by overexpressing the dominant-negative form of telomere repeat-binding factor 2 under the control of the VE-cadherin promoter. Following three weeks of hypoxia exposure, the PH phenotypes were assessed by RVSP, lung histology, and RT-qPCR. The interaction of human pulmonary artery ECs (hPAECs) and human pulmonary artery smooth muscle cells (hPASMCs) was indirectly and directly explored through the co-culture system. Gamma-secretase inhibitor (DAPT) was administrated to inhibit Notch signalling both in the in-vitro and in-vivo study.
Results
EC-specific progeroid mice showed exacerbated pulmonary hypertension after chronic hypoxia exposure, accompanied by the enhanced medial SMCs proliferation in the distal pulmonary arteries. Contact-mediated interaction with senescent hPAECs increased proliferation and migration capacities in hPASMCs, while no such effects were detected in the absence of ECs-SMCs contact. Consistently, senescent ECs highly expressed Notch ligands, thus activated Notch signalling in hPASMCs, leading to increased Notch target genes in hPASMCs. Pharmacological inhibition of Notch signalling attenuated the enhanced SMCs proliferation and migration induced by senescent hPAECs, as well as the worsened PH phenotypes in EC-specific progeroid mice.
Conclusions
Our data established a crucial role of senescent ECs in the PAH pathogenesis through the dysregulated SMC functions via juxtacrine signaling. Senescent ECs are attracting targets for further pathological-targeted therapy to cure PAH completely.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE The hemodynamics associated with cerebral AVMs have a significant impact on their clinical presentation. This study aimed to evaluate the hemodynamic features of AVMs using 3D phase-contrast MR imaging with dual velocity-encodings. MATERIALS AND METHODS Thirty-two patients with supratentorial AVMs who had not received any previous treatment and had undergone 3D phase-contrast MR imaging were included in this study. The nidus diameter and volume were measured for classification of AVMs (small, medium, or large). Flow parameters measured included apparent AVM inflow, AVM inflow index, apparent AVM outflow, AVM outflow index, and the apparent AVM inflow-to-outflow ratio. Correlation coefficients between the nidus volume and each flow were calculated. The flow parameters between small and other AVMs as well as between nonhemorrhagic and hemorrhagic AVMs were compared. RESULTS Patients were divided into hemorrhagic (n = 8) and nonhemorrhagic (n = 24) groups. The correlation coefficient between the nidus volume and the apparent AVM inflow and outflow was .83. The apparent AVM inflow and outflow in small AVMs were significantly smaller than in medium AVMs (P < .001 for both groups). The apparent AVM inflow-to-outflow ratio was significantly larger in the hemorrhagic AVMs than in the nonhemorrhagic AVMs (P = .02). CONCLUSIONS The apparent AVM inflow-to-outflow ratio was the only significant parameter that differed between nonhemorrhagic and hemorrhagic AVMs, suggesting that a poor drainage system may increase AVM pressure, potentially causing cerebral hemorrhage.

Abstract
Rhodococcus equi was isolated from the gastrointestinal contents of earthworms (family Megascolecidae) and their surrounding soil collected from pastures of two horse-breeding farms in Aomori Prefecture, outdoor pig pens, forest in Towada campus, orange groves and forest where wild boars (Sus scrofa) are established in Tanabe, Wakayama Prefecture. The number of R. equi in the lower gastrointestinal contents of 23 earthworms collected from our campus was significantly larger than that of the upper gastrointestinal content. The mean numbers of R. equi from the gastrointestinal contents of earthworms collected from the various places were 2·3-fold to 39·7-fold more than those of the surrounding soil samples. In all, 1771 isolates from the earthworms and 489 isolates from the soil samples were tested for the presence of vapA and vapB genes using polymerase chain reaction. At the horse-breeding farm N, 9 of the 109 isolates (8·3%) from the earthworms and 7 of the 106 isolates (6·6%) from the soil samples were positive for the vapA gene. At the University's forest, one of the 250 isolates (0·4%) from the gastrointestinal contents of the earthworm was positive for the vapB gene. These results revealed that R. equi can be found in significant quantities in the gastrointestinal contents of earthworms, suggesting that they act as an accumulator of R. equi in the soil environment and as a source or reservoir of animal infection.

Abstract
The objective of this study was to evaluate the effects of oral administration of fiber from the first week of life on the growth and hindgut environment of preweaning calves. Twenty newborn female Holstein calves were divided into 2 groups as control and treatment. Calves in both groups were reared under the same feeding program except for oral fiber administration. Timothy hay and psyllium were mixed at a 50-to-6 ratio as a treatment diet for oral fiber administration. Calves in the treatment group were orally administered 50 g of fiber daily from 3 to 7 d of age and 100 g of fiber from 8 d of age until weaning. Feed intake and occurrence of diarrhea were recorded daily, and body weight (BW) was recorded weekly for the individual calf. Fresh feces were collected from calves at 7, 21, 35, 49, and 56 d of age to analyze fermentation parameters and microbiota to characterize the hindgut environment. Higher fiber intake in the treatment group due to oral administration of timothy and psyllium did not affect the starter intake and achieved higher BW at 21 d of age. The fecal pH, total volatile fatty acid, lactate, and ammonia nitrogen concentrations were not affected by oral fiber administration; meanwhile, the molar proportion of propionate was higher in the treatment group at 7 d of age. The difference in fecal microbiota in the calves subjected to the oral administration of fiber was observed within 21 d of life; Lactobacillus spp. and Prevotella spp. showed higher abundance, whereas that of Clostridium perfringens was decreased. These higher abundances of beneficial bacteria and lower abundance of pathogenic bacteria during early life may partly explain the higher BW of calves in the treatment group at 21 d of age. Furthermore, no adverse effect was observed for the BW and health status in the treatment group throughout the preweaning period. Therefore, early fiber feeding via oral administration potentially contributes to improving the hindgut environment in newborn calves, which leads to better growth of calves during the early stage of life.

Abstract
In a companion paper by Cohen-Adad et al. we introduce the spine generic quantitative MRI protocol that provides valuable metrics for assessing spinal cord macrostructural and microstructural integrity. This protocol was used to acquire a single subject dataset across 19 centers and a multi-subject dataset across 42 centers (for a total of 260 participants), spanning the three main MRI manufacturers: GE, Philips and Siemens. Both datasets are publicly available via git-annex. Data were analysed using the Spinal Cord Toolbox to produce normative values as well as inter/intra-site and inter/intra-manufacturer statistics. Reproducibility for the spine generic protocol was high across sites and manufacturers, with an average inter-site coefficient of variation of less than 5% for all the metrics. Full documentation and results can be found at https://spine-generic.rtfd.io/ . The datasets and analysis pipeline will help pave the way towards accessible and reproducible quantitative MRI in the spinal cord.

Abstract
Abstract
Study question
Does postponement of intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) timing after spindle visualization for Metaphase I (MI) oocytes improve developmental outcomes of embryos?
Summary answer
Postponement of ICSI timing after spindle visualization for MI oocytes improves blastocyst utility rates.
What is known already
Immature oocytes are generally considered poor developmental outcomes. Meanwhile, the timing of ICSI adjusted by using spindle visualization can improve clinically utilized embryos and live birth rates, but these outcomes remain inferior to those of mature oocytes. In in vitro maturation culture, nuclear maturation is thought to occur before the completion of cytoplasmic maturation, and in immature oocytes, synchronization of nuclear and cytoplasmic maturation may be insufficient for ICSI immediately after spindle visualization.
Study design, size, duration
Data for this retrospective cohort study were obtained 672 oocytes retrieved under mild stimulation cycles using letrozole, in patients aged younger than 39 years between April 2017 and October 2020.Written informed consent was obtained from all patients. This study was approved by the institutional review board.
Participants/materials, setting, methods
As a control group, 464 MetaphaseIIoocytes that underwent ICSI immediately after visualization of the spindle were used. In group A, 103 MI oocytes underwent ICSI immediately after the first polar body release and spindle visualization, and in group B, 105 oocytes underwent ICSI 2–3 hours after spindle visualization. The primary outcomes were fertilization rates, degeneration, cleavage, embryo blastocyst formation, and utility rates. Outcomes were compared among the three groups.
Main results and the role of chance
The baseline fertilization rates of each group (control, A, B) were 82.3% (382/464), 73.8% (76/103), and 83.8% (88/105), respectively. The rate was significantly lower in group A than in the control group (P < 0.05), and also tended to be lower in group A than in group B, although the difference was not significant. There was no significant difference in abnormal fertilization rates, oocyte degeneration rates, cleavage rates, and blastocyst formation rates among the three groups. [control, A, B: abnormal fertilization rate: 4.3% (20/464), 8.7% (9/103), 4.8% (5/105); oocyte degeneration rates: 3.0% (14/464), 1.9% (2/103), 3.8% (4/105); cleavage rates: 95.6% (307/321), 93.8% (61/65), 98.7% (74/75); blastocyst formation rates: 58.6% (177/302), 51.7% (31/60), 55.4% (41/74), respectively]. The blastocyst utility rates of control group and group B were significantly higher than in group A [41.7% (126/302), 45.9% (34/74), 26.7% (16/60), respectively] (P < 0.05). There were no significantly different outcomes between the control group and group B.
Limitations, reasons for caution
The optimal timing of ICSI for MI oocyte cannot be determined by the presence or absence of spindles. In addition, the postponement duration we set was based on reports which reported on final oocyte maturation, and further investigation is needed to establish the optimal ICSI timing for MI oocytes.
Wider implications of the findings: In MI oocytes, postponement of ICSI timing after spindle visualization is essential for synchronization of the nucleus and cytoplasmic maturation.

Abstract
Study question
Does conventional ovarian stimulation with gonadotropins alter the molecular composition, size, and developmental fitness of superovulated mouse oocytes?
Summary answer
Ovarian stimulation perturbs 31% of developmental proteome vs. 2% of transcriptome, yielding smaller oocytes that form blastocysts with less primitive endoderm and diminished fetal yield.

Prior mouse studies aimed to assess the impact of superovulation on oocyte and embryo quality provided variable results. Aberrations were observed in some studies but not in others, and were associated with a variable time spent in the oviduct until retrieval for in vitro culture. Although the natural ovarian cycle lasts 4 days in mice, the conventional stimulation protocol time spans 2 days. No genome-wide studies have been devoted yet to the global gene expression of superovulated mouse oocytes and derivative embryos, to determine if gene products accumulate to the same extent as in natural cycles.
Study design, size, duration
Approx. 1100 female mice were injected, half with serial equine and human chorionic gonadotropin, eCG and hCG, to induce superovulation; the other half were injected with saline as control. Both groups were mated to vasectomized or fertile males to obtain, respectively, metaphase II and fertilized oocytes. These were removed from the oviducts, and followed up in vitro to blastocyst, or in vivo to term after surgical transfer to naturally cycling females.
Participants/materials, setting, methods
B6C3F1 oocytes (n= ∼16000) from superovulation (10 I.U. eCG+hCG) or natural ovulation were measured for diameter, and upon fertilization, they were cultured in KSOM(aa) to collect preimplantation stages for analyses (mass spectrometry; RNA sequencing; immunofluorescence for counting of trophectoderm, epiblast, and primitive endoderm cells). Embryos at the 4-cell stage were transplanted to naturally cycling females (8/female, 45 recipients). Results were compared between natural ovulation and superovulation with 48h (conventional) or 72h interval of eCG-hCG stimulation.
Main results and the role of chance
Preimplantation embryos of superovulated oocytes were affected in 31% of the proteins (893 / 2855) vs. 2% of the transcripts (482 / 21784), compared to natural counterparts (adj.P<0.05, Wilcoxon test). Gene set enrichment analysis of the perturbed proteome returned the top-terms ‘thin zona pellucida’ (ZP1, ZP2, ZP3) and ‘abnormal inner cell mass apoptosis’ (DAB2, STAT3). Microscope measurements verified a thinner zona pellucida (p = 0.077, Wilcoxon test) along with a smaller diameter (p < 0.0001, Wilcoxon test) of superovulated oocytes, which gave rise to blastocysts deficient in primitive endoderm (p < 0.013, Fisher’s exact test). Since 529 of the 893 differently expressed proteins were depleted, we considered that ovarian stimulation provided insufficient time for protein accumulation. Increasing the eCG-hCG interval from 48 h (conventional) to 72 h restored oocytes’ diameters, and improved their fetal output from 25% to 59%, compared to 54% of natural ovulation (15 embryo transfers per group). Conversely, oocytes lost part of their developmental potential to the micromanipulation-assisted reduction of their volume. This study provides evidence of an additional novel effect of exposure to gonadotropins on mouse oocyte quality, whose mechanism is mediated not by the stimulated genital tract, but by the time-dependent accumulation of proteins in oocytes.
Limitations, reasons for caution
This is an animal model study based on one mouse strain. Ovarian stimulation protocols differ between mice and humans. There can be yet other, more subtle or long-term differences between superovulated and naturally ovulated oocytes, than those described here. Proteome and transcriptome analysis cover much, but not everything.
Wider implications of the findings
There is a trade-off between oocyte quantity and quality in mice subjected to superovulation. Cytological and molecular deficits define a ‘small oocyte syndrome’. Problematic is not so much the gonadotropin treatment, rather its timing. An evidence-based protocol for superovulation may be different from that used currently in mice.

Abstract
Abstract
Study question
Are one live birth rates (LBRs) similar in minimal stimulation cycle IVF with letrozole only and natural cycle IVF for the first ART cycle?
Summary answer
LBRs after first ART cycle in minimal stimulation cycle IVF with letrozole only are superior to natural cycle IVF.
What is known already
The addition of letrozole to gonadotropins in ovarian stimulation (OS) may reduce the risk of OHSS, but there is no significant difference were reported in ongoing pregnancy rate or number of oocytes retrieved in the letrozole + FSH group compared to the FSH only. No differences were also reported in clinical pregnancy rates or number of mature oocytes in the additional of letrozole in an GnRH antagonist protocol group compared to the GnRH antagonist group. There are no previous study comparing LBRs after first ART cycle in minimal stimulation cycle IVF with letrozole and natural cycle IVF.
Study design, size, duration
Data for this retrospective cohort study were obtained 643 women, 30–39 years of age started their first ART cycle at one private fertility clinic between January 2016- December 2019.
Participants/materials, setting, methods
A total of 643 women were scheduled their first oocyte retrieval cycle. 118 women started with letrozole (LE) and 525 women started natural cycle (NC). The main strategy for OS in our center is minimal stimulation and natural cycle IVF. Patients consulted with gynecologists to determine their treatment plan based on patients’ preference or their menstrual cycle. All pregnancies generated from oocyte retrieval during the first IVF cycle including fresh and frozen-thaw cycles were registered.
Main results and the role of chance
The number of retrieved oocytes and the normal fertilization rates were significantly higher in the LE than NC (4.4 vs 3.4, 77.6% vs 71.1%), p < 0.05 respectively). There was no significant difference in the clinical pregnancy rates (CPRs) per embryo transfer (ET) (fresh cleavage stage ET: 32.9% vs 28.0%, frozen-thaw blastocyst ET: 39.4% vs 44.9% ns). However, the CPRs and LBRs per oocyte retrieval (OR) were significantly higher in the LE group (39.0% vs 28.6, 33.9% vs 21.9%, p < 0.05 respectively). In a subsequent regression analyses, LBRs per OR of LE was significantly higher than NC as well. (adjusted OR = 1.63 (95% CI: 1.02–2.58, p = 0.041).
Limitations, reasons for caution
The strength of the present study was the use of a large cohort of women who underwent minimal stimulation IVF with letrozole only. Although our results are promising, limited by retrospective cohort study. These interpretations prompted the need for a perspective cohort study to evaluate the efficacy of letrozole.
Wider implications of the findings: When comparing minimal stimulation IVF with letrozole only and natural cycle IVF, we found significantly higher LBRs per OR in minimal stimulation IVF with letrozole only, despite similar CPRs per ET.

Abstract
Background:While the diagnostic and classification criteria for IgG4-related disease (IgG4-RD) have been recently developed [1-3], it is known that, without appropriate exclusions, some non-IgG4-RDs may meet these criteria. In particular, hyper IL-6 syndromes, including Castleman disease, can be misdiagnosed as IgG4-RD. Some clinical findings, including elevated serum levels of C-reactive protein (CRP) or IgA, have been suggested to be useful for differentiating hyper IL-6 syndromes from IgG4-RD [4]. However, since few clinical studies have focused on IgG4-RD with high serum IgA levels, its clinical significance has not been well known.Objectives:This study aimed to clarify the clinical significance of high serum IgA levels in patients with IgG4-RD.Methods:We retrospectively investigated the clinical features of 170 patients with IgG4-RD on the basis of the presence or absence of elevated serum IgA levels (>410 mg/dL) at the time of diagnosis. The diagnosis of IgG4-RD was made by experts on the basis of the fulfillment of the comprehensive diagnostic criteria and/or each organ-specific diagnostic criteria.Results:Elevated serum IgA levels were observed in 18 patients (10.6%). In the patients with elevated serum IgA levels, serum CRP levels were higher (1.14 ± 1.18 vs. 0.31 ± 0.63 mg/dL, p=0.003) and the prevalence of relapse during the clinical course was lower (5.6% vs. 27.6%, p=0.046) than in those without elevated serum IgA levels. However, there were no significant differences in the other clinical features including the number of involved organs (2.4 ± 1.3 vs. 2.8 ± 1.6, p=0.443) and inclusion scores of the ACR/EULAR classification criteria (32 ± 14 vs. 36 ± 17, p=0.374). To evaluate the influence of serum IgA elevation on relapse, we performed Cox regression analysis, which showed that the elevated serum IgA levels had no significant association with lower incidence of relapse but a tendency of it (hazard ratio 0.997, 95% confidence interval 0.994-1.000, p=0.055) during the clinical course. In addition, a prompt improvement in the IgG4-RD responder index [5] during the clinical course was seen in the patients with serum IgA elevation, suggesting a similar good response to glucocorticoids as in those without it.Conclusion:The findings of the present study suggest that IgG4-RD patients with high serum IgA levels can be diagnosed and treated in the same way as those without it, although they may be characterized by mild serum CRP elevation.References:[1]Wallace ZS et al.

Abstract
Background:In recent years, IgG4-related disease (IgG4-RD) has become a widely recognized disorder. However, mortality and its related factors in this disease are not well known.Objectives:This study aimed to clarify mortality and its related factors in patients with IgG4-RD.Methods:We retrospectively reviewed the medical records of patients with IgG4-RD diagnosed by experts based on fulfillment of the Japanese comprehensive diagnostic criteria and/or the 2019 ACR/EULAR classification criteria for IgG4-RD at a single center in Japan. Using the collected data, we calculated the crude mortality rate and the standardized mortality ratio (SMR) using national Japan mortality statistics and investigated the cause of death. We performed Cox regression analyses to assess mortality-related factors.Results:A total of 179 patients with IgG4-RD were included: 124 were male (69.3%); the median age was 68 years (interquartile range [IQR] 60-75 years); and the median follow-up from diagnosis was 47 months (IQR 17-84). Ten patients (5.6%) in our cohort died during the follow-up period. Five died of malignancy, one of respiratory failure, two of infectious pneumonia, one of sudden cardiac event, and one of suspected aortic aneurysmal rupture. The crude mortality rate was 11.1 per 1,000 person-years. According to national Japan mortality statistics, 11.6 age- and sex-matched deaths were expected to occur within the follow-up period, resulting in a SMR of 0.86 (95% confidence interval [CI] 0.41-1.59). Univariate Cox regression analyses indicated that the number of affected organs at diagnosis (hazard ratio [HR] 1.45, 95% CI 1.02-2.05), serum creatinine levels at diagnosis (HR 1.82, 95% CI 1.06-3.12), and the presence of malignancy during the clinical course (HR 3.93, 95% CI 1.10-14.02) had a significant impact on the time to death, whereas the other factors including age at diagnosis and serum C-reactive protein and IgG4 levels at diagnosis did not.Conclusion:Our findings suggest that the mortality rate of patients with IgG4-RD does not significantly differ from that of the Japanese general population. Multi-organ involvement and renal dysfunction at diagnosis as well as malignancy during the clinical course may be associated with higher mortality. An appropriate clinical evaluation for the early detection of these risk factors is required at first diagnosis and during long-term follow-up.Disclosure of Interests:None declared
