Abstract
In this study, we investigated whether monitoring the ventral tail base surface temperature (ST) using a wearable wireless sensor could be effective for fever detection in calves with experimentally induced pneumonia after inoculation with Histophilus somni strain 2336. We found a significant difference in the changes in ST values between the control and H. somni-inoculated groups after 24 h of inoculation and detected fever; however, the rectal temperature showed a significant difference between the groups after 12 h of inoculation. When a significant difference in the ST between the two groups was observed, serum haptoglobin concentration and exacerbation of clinical score increased in the H. somni-inoculated group compared with those in the control group. Pneumonia was observed in the H. somni-inoculated group at necropsy, indicating that the changes in ST may reflect fever with inflammation caused by H. somni infection. Our results demonstrated that monitoring ST using a sensor attached to the ventral tail base can detect fever in calves and may be a useful and labor-saving tool for the health management of calves.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION AND IMPORTANCE Patellar bone tumors are very rare, and most are benign or of intermediate type. In this report, we describe our experience of a metastatic patellar bone tumor caused by gastric cancer, which resembled a very rare primary or secondary aneurysmal bone cyst and review the literature. CASE PRESENTATION A 65-year-old man presented with severe pain in the patellar region and marked limitation of the knee joint range of motion. He had a history of gastric cancer; however, epidemiological, clinical, and imaging findings led us to strongly suspect an aneurysm-like bone cyst. Thus, we performed bone tumor curettage and autologous artificial bone grafting without biopsy because of the severe pain. Pathology results showed gastric cancer metastasis; hence, patellectomy and patellar tendon augmentation with femoral fascia were performed. The Musculoskeletal Tumor Society (MSTS) score was taken postoperatively to assess pain and function. CLINICAL DISCUSSION We experienced a very rare gastric cancer-related metastatic patellar bone tumor, which resembled a primary or secondary aneurysmal bone cyst in frequency and imaging findings. Patellectomy was ultimately performed, and the patient's MSTS score improved markedly. CONCLUSION Despite its very low frequency, patellar metastatic bone tumors must be taken into account without being misled by the frequency or imaging findings and a biopsy should necessarily be performed.

Abstract
It is desirable to attend to the mare at the time of foaling in order to assist fetal delivery and prevent complications. The early detection of the onset of labor is an important issue for the equine industry. The purpose of this study was to examine the applicability of a sensor for foaling detection using the data of surface temperature (ST), roll angle (rotation about the y-axis) and y-axis (long axis of the tail) acceleration which were collected from a multimodal device attached to the ventral tail base of the mare. The data were collected every 3 minutes in 17 pregnant mares. Roll angle differences from the reference values and the mare's posture (standing or recumbent) confirmed by video were compared and associated. Cohen's kappa coefficient was 0.99 when the threshold was set as ± 0.3 radian in roll angle differences. This result clearly showed that the sensor data can accurately distinguish between standing and recumbent postures. The hourly sensor data with a lower ST (LST < 35.5°C), a recumbent posture determined by the roll angle, and tail-raising (TR, decline of 200 mg or more from the reference value in y-axis acceleration) was significantly higher during the last hour prepartum than 2-120 hours before parturition (P < 0.01). The accuracy of foaling detection within one hour was verified using the following three indicators: LST; lying down (LD, change from standing to recumbent posture); and TR. When LST, LD and TR were individually examined, even though all indicators showed that sensitivity was 100%, the precision was 13.1%, 8.1% and 2.8%, respectively. When the data were combined as LST+LD, LST+TR, LD+TR and LST+LD+TR, detection of foaling improved, with precisions of 100%, 32.1%, 56.7% and 100%, respectively. In conclusion, the tail-attached multimodal device examined in this present study is useful for detecting foaling.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To clarify the frequency of imaging findings similar to mycobacterial infection and the characteristics of comorbid pulmonary non-tuberculosis mycobacteriosis in the patients with allergic bronchopulmonary mycosis (ABPM). SUBJECTS AND METHODS Patients treated with ABPM at our hospital in the past 8 years were extracted from medical records, and 32 patients who met the clinical diagnostic criteria were retrospectively examined. RESULTS The median age was 62.5 years (range 24-79 years), and 21 patients were female. Twenty-two had asthma, and four had old tuberculosis. CT findings showed central bronchiectasis in 29 cases, centrilobular nodulars in 26 cases, and mediastinal lymphadenopathy in 3 cases. Pulmonary M. avium complex (pMAC) disease was complicated in 4 cases. Regarding the time of diagnosis of pMAC disease, 2 cases were diagnosed concurrently with ABPM, 1 case was before ABPM diagnosis, and 1 case was during ABPM treatment. The main lesion of ABPM occurred in a different site from that of pMAC disease. CONCLUSIONS ABPM and mycobacterial infection not only have similar imaging findings, but they can also occur synchronously and metachronously. Complication of ABPM and pMAC disease may be due to risk factors common to both diseases, such as the patient's constitution and living environment.

Abstract
A 72-year-old woman who was undergoing treatment for bronchial asthma and psoriasis vulgaris experienced malaise three months earlier and visited our hospital on account of abnormal lung shadows. Chest computed tomography revealed ground-glass opacities in the peripheral lung fields and eosinophilia in the bronchoalveolar lavage fluid, which suggested eosinophilic pneumonia. Antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibody was negative. Her lower limbs had multiple palpable papules mixed with well-treated psoriasis and the histopathology of the skin biopsy revealed eosinophil infiltration around small vessels, suggesting the occurrence of eosinophilic granulomatosis with polyangiitis (EGPA). We were able to evaluate minor skin lesions mixed with psoriasis through collaboration between the pulmonologist and the dermatologist. In the diagnosis of EGPA, it is important to carefully examine the whole body and not overlook minor findings before starting steroids.

Abstract
Simple Summary Routine visual observation of signs of imminent calving, such as softening of ligaments around the tailhead and udder distension, is time-consuming, and the resulting calving predictions are relatively unreliable. To address this issue, we used a multimodal tail-attached device (tail sensor) and developed calving prediction models through supervised machine learning. The tail sensor is equipped with a thermistor and 3-axis accelerometer, and can monitor tail skin temperature, activity intensity, lying time, posture changes (standing to lying or vice versa), and tail raising behavior. Using the sensor data with a non-sensor-based data (days to the expected calving date), we developed calving prediction models for 24-h and 6-h periods before calving and evaluated their predictive ability under two distinct housing conditions, tethering (tie-stall) and untethering (free-stall and individual pen). Our results demonstrated that calving prediction models based on tail sensor data with supervised machine learning have the potential to achieve effective calving prediction, irrespective of the cattle housing conditions. Abstract In this study, we developed calving prediction models for 24-h and 6-h periods before calving using data on physiological (tail skin temperature) and behavioral (activity intensity, lying time, posture change, and tail raising) parameters obtained using a multimodal tail-attached device (tail sensor). The efficiencies of the models were validated under tethering (tie-stall) and untethering (free-stall and individual pen) conditions. Data were collected from 33 and 30 pregnant cattle under tethering and untethering conditions, respectively, from approximately 15 days before the expected calving date. Based on pre-calving changes, 40 features (8 physiological and 32 behavioral) were extracted from the sensor data, and one non-sensor-based feature (days to the expected calving date) was added to develop models using a support vector machine. Cross-validation showed that calving within the next 24 h under tethering and untethering conditions was predicted with a sensitivity of 97% and 93% and precision of 80% and 76%, respectively, while calving within the next 6 h was predicted with a sensitivity of 91% and 90% and precision of 88% and 90%, respectively. Calving prediction models based on the tail sensor data with supervised machine learning have the potential to achieve effective calving prediction, irrespective of the cattle housing conditions.

Abstract
We investigated the expression of insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF-1) and IGF-1 type 1 receptor (IGF-1R) in skeletal muscle fiber types in chickens with hepatic fibrosis induced by bile duct ligation (BDL). Eleven hens, approximately 104 weeks old, were randomly assigned to BDL (n = 4) and sham surgery (SHAM; n = 7) groups. In BDL hens, histopathology revealed marked bile duct proliferation and liver fibrosis. The cross-sectional area (CSA) of myofibers from both the pectoralis (PCT) muscles significantly decreased in the BDL group compared with the SHAM group (P < 0.01). In contrast, the CSA of myofibers from the femorotibialis lateralis (FTL) muscle did not decrease in the BDL group. Type I fibers were large, round, and hypertrophic. Elongated type IIA and IIB fibers were also present. For IGF-1 immunostaining, the immunoreaction intensity was higher in the PCT in the BDL group than the SHAM group. Within the BDL group, type I fibers from FTL had a stronger immunoreaction intensity than the type II fibers. For IGF-1R immunostaining, the intensity of the immunoreactions was similar within the PCT in the BDL group compared with the SHAM group. For FTL, type I fibers had stronger reactions to IGF-1R than type II fibers in the BDL group. These results suggest that type I fibers express both IGF-1 and IGF-1R and become hypertrophic in chickens with hepatic fibrosis.

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

Abstract
The conventional follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) treatment for bovine superstimulation involves multiple intramuscular injections, which is stressful for animals and onerous. We herein investigated whether a single epidural injection of porcine FSH (pFSH) can induce superovulation and peripheral concentrations of pFSH and steroid hormones after the treatment in Holstein dry cows. We intramuscularly administered pFSH twice daily to three cows for 3 days (control) or a single epidural pFSH administration (epidural). Numbers of follicles (≥10 mm in diameter) at estrus and corpora lutea at luteal phase were counted by ultrasonography. Blood was sampled from 0 to 104 h after the first pFSH administration and plasma pFSH, progesterone, androstenedione, testosterone, and estradiol-17β concentrations were measured. Numbers of follicles (control: 18.3 ± 7.5, epidural: 15.7 ± 4.0; mean ± SD) and corpora lutea (control: 7.3 ± 4.2, epidural: 8.0 ± 2.6) were similar between both treatments. Plasma pFSH concentrations were higher in epidural than in control (p < 0.01). Although no significant differences were observed in progesterone, androstenedione, or estradiol-17β concentrations between the groups, testosterone concentrations were slightly lower with the epidural treatment than with the control treatment (p = 0.08). In conclusion, superovulation was induced by a single epidural injection of pFSH, which achieved higher pFSH level than the multiple injections in Holstein dry cows.

Abstract
A 74-year-old man developed with left pleural effusion and was suspected of benign asbestos pleural effusion and tuberculous pleurisy. Because of elevation of ADA level in the pleural effusion, diagnostic treatment for tuberculous pleurisy by anti-tuberculosis drugs was performed. However, right pleural effusion, cutaneous/mucosal lesions, leukocytopenia, and fever elevation occurred. The pathology of skin biopsy was consistent with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). Since clinical findings did not improve even after discontinuation of all drugs, he received steroid therapy was started and clinical findings improved. He was suspected of late-onset SLE. In conclusion, lupus pleurisy should also be differentiated when pleural effusion is seen in older. Late-onset SLE and drug-induced lupus should be carefully differentiated based on the clinical course.

Abstract
A 70-year-old woman undergoing long-term treatment for systemic scleroderma and secondary Sjögren syndrome developed fever during tapering of steroids. Chest CT showed centrilobular granular shadow and ground glass opacities. The pathology of transbronchial lung biopsy and the findings of bronchoalveolar lavage fluid were consistent with hypersensitivity pneumonitis and positive for anti-Trichosporon asahii antibody. Because her symptoms and imaging findings improved after house cleaning, she was diagnosed with summertype hypersensitivity pneumonitis. When lung lesions are found in patients with collagen disease, it is necessary to distinguish various diseases. In particular, allergic diseases can be difficult to diagnose by steroid therapy. In order to make an accurate diagnosis, medical history and image interpretation should be performed carefully and histologically searched as much as possible.

Abstract
A study was conducted to investigate whether ovulation in gilts could be synchronized for embryo collection by the administration of estradiol benzoate (EB) or estradiol dipropionate (EDP) to induce pseudopregnancy, followed by the treatment with prostaglandin F2α (PGF2α ) on 10 days after. Ten gilts each received a total of 20 mg of EB or EDP on Day 10 or EB on Day 10 and 14 to induce pseudopregnancy (Day 0 = onset of estrus). Donors received PGF2α 10 or 15 days (as a control) after the first administration of estrogens and subsequently eCG and hCG, and were then inseminated artificially. The embryos were collected 7 days after the administration of hCG, and assessed for embryo yield and their developmental stages. All protocols resulted in good embryo yield (9.8-13.2 embryos in average), and the embryos showed average ability to develop to the expanded blastocyst stage (3.29-4.03 as developmental scores) without any significant differences among the protocols. These results suggest that the administration of PGF2α 10 days after the treatment of gilts with EB or EDP would allow synchronization of ovulation and embryo collection, as well as shortening the period from estrus detection to embryo collection, thus improving embryo collection efficiency.

Abstract
Simple Summary With increasing herd sizes and labor costs in recent decades, visual estrus detection by farmers has become more difficult because of the reduced manpower input per cow. To address this problem, various wearable devices have been developed for automatic estrus detection in cows, such as neck- or leg-mounted activity meters for monitoring estrus-associated increments in the amount of activity. However, these animal-contact devices have several limitations; namely, it can be dangerous to attach or remove the device and it can cause discomfort. Recently, a background image subtraction technique has been proposed as a non-contact method for monitoring activity changes in livestock animals. In this study, a new method was developed by combining the background subtraction technique and the thresholding method to detect estrus-associated activity increases in tie-stalled cows. Using this method, a substantial increase in activity in estrus was detectable, and the estrus detection sensitivity reached as high as 90% with a precision of 50%, where the sensitivity and precision were calculated as: (true-positive/[true-positive + false-negative]) × 100% and (true-positive/[true-positive + false-positive]) × 100%, respectively. This result may indicate that activity monitoring using the background subtraction technique has the potential to be a non-contact estrus detection method in tie-stalled cows. Abstract In this study, we determined the applicability of the background image subtraction technique to detect estrus in tie-stalled cows. To investigate the impact of the camera shooting direction, webcams were set up to capture the front, top, and rear views of a cow simultaneously. Video recording was performed for a total of ten estrous cycles in six cows. Standing estrus was confirmed by testing at 6 h intervals. From the end of estrus, transrectal ultrasonography was performed every 2 h to confirm ovulation time. Foreground objects (moving objects) were extracted in the videos using the background subtraction technique, and the pixels were counted at each frame of five frames-per-second sequences. After calculating the hourly averaged pixel counts, the change in values was expressed as the pixel ratio (total value during the last 24 h/total value during the last 24 to 48 h). The mean pixel ratio gradually increased at approximately 48 h before ovulation, and the highest value was observed at estrus, regardless of the camera shooting direction. When using front-view videos with an appropriate threshold, estrus was detected with 90% sensitivity and 50% precision. The present method in particular has the potential to be a non-contact estrus detection method for tie-stalled cows.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Adult patients with ischemic Moyamoya disease are advised to undergo selective revascularization surgery based on cerebral hemodynamics. The purpose of this study was to determine the diagnostic accuracy of arterial spin-labeling MR imaging using Hadamard-encoded multiple postlabeling delays for the detection of reduced CBF in such patients. MATERIALS AND METHODS Thirty-seven patients underwent brain perfusion SPECT and pseudocontinuous arterial spin-labeling MR imaging using standard postlabeling delay (1525 ms) and Hadamard-encoded multiple postlabeling delays. For Hadamard-encoded multiple postlabeling delays, based on data obtained from the 7 sub-boluses with combinations of different labeling durations and postlabeling delays, CBF corrected by the arterial transit time was calculated on a voxel-by-voxel basis. Using a 3D stereotaxic template, we automatically placed ROIs in the ipsilateral cerebellar hemisphere and 5 MCA territories in the symptomatic cerebral hemisphere; then, the ratio of the MCA to cerebellar ROI was calculated. RESULTS The area under the receiver operating characteristic curve for detecting reduced SPECT-CBF ratios (<0.686) was significantly greater for the Hadamard-encoded multiple postlabeling delays-CBF ratios (0.885) than for the standard postlabeling delay-CBF ratios (0.786) (P = .001). The sensitivity and negative predictive value for the Hadamard-encoded multiple postlabeling delays-CBF ratios were 100% (95% confidence interval, 100%-100%) and significantly higher than the sensitivity (95% CI, 44%-80%) and negative predictive value (95% CI, 88%-97%) for the standard postlabeling delay-CBF ratio, respectively. CONCLUSIONS ASL MR imaging using Hadamard-encoded multiple postlabeling delays may be applicable as a screening tool because it can detect reduced CBF on brain perfusion SPECT with 100% sensitivity and a 100% negative predictive value in adult patients with ischemic Moyamoya disease.

Abstract
We aimed to determine the effectiveness of estrus detection based on continuous measurements of the ventral tail base surface temperature (ST) with supervised
machine learning in cattle. ST data were obtained through 51 estrus cycles on 11 female cattle (six Holsteins and five Japanese Blacks) using the tail-attached
sensor. Three estrus detection models were constructed with the training data (n = 17) using machine learning techniques (random forest,
artificial neural network, and support vector machine) based on 13 features extracted from sensing data (indicative of estrus-associated ST changes). Estrus
detection abilities of the three models on test data (n = 34) were not statistically different among models in terms of sensitivity and
precision (range 50.0% to 58.8% and 60.6% to 73.1%, respectively). The relatively poor performance of the models might indicate the difficulty of separating
estrus-associated ST changes from estrus-independent fluctuations in ST.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Intracranial hemorrhage due to hyperperfusion syndrome is a severe carotid artery stent placement complication of extremely high-grade stenosis, causing hemodynamic insufficiency. To prevent hyperperfusion syndrome, we attempted intentional residual stent stenosis and implemented "gentle" carotid artery stent placement, defined as carotid artery stent placement using a closed-cell stent coupled with slight balloon predilation, without balloon postdilation. Gradual stent expansion was expected. We investigated the incidence of hyperperfusion syndrome and long-term outcomes after gentle carotid artery stent placement. MATERIALS AND METHODS We included patients who underwent carotid artery stent placement for extremely high-grade stenosis from January 2015 to March 2019. We defined extremely high-grade stenosis as carotid stenosis with conventional angiographic "slow flow" and a reduced MCA signal intensity on MRA. A reduced MCA signal intensity was defined as MCA with a relative signal intensity of <0.9 in the ipsilateral compared with the contralateral MCA. We evaluated the stent diameter, CBF on SPECT, hyperperfusion syndrome, and intracranial hemorrhage. We defined hyperperfusion syndrome as a triad of ipsilateral headache, seizure, and hemiparesis. RESULTS Twenty-eight of the 191 patients met our inclusion criteria. After carotid artery stent placement, their median minimal stent diameter was 2.9 mm, which expanded to 3.9 mm at 4 months. Neither cerebral hyperperfusion syndrome nor intracranial hemorrhage occurred. CONCLUSIONS The gentle carotid artery stent placement strategy for intentional residual stent stenosis may prevent hyperperfusion syndrome in high-risk patients. Stents spontaneously dilated in 4 months.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Noninvasive evaluation of patients with stable angina is preferable over invasive testing if it leads to similar patient outcome. The combination of coronary angiography and vasodilator challenge myocardial perfusion imaging by computed tomography allows fast, comprehensive assessment of patients with suspected coronary heart disease.
Purpose
To compare the long-term prognostic value of combined computed tomography angiography (CTA) and myocardial CT perfusion imaging (CTP) with invasive coronary angiography (ICA) and single photon emission tomography (SPECT) in patients with suspected hemodynamically significant coronary heart disease.
Methods
At 16 centres, 381 patients were followed for major adverse cardiac events (MACE) for the CORE320 study. All patients underwent coronary CTA, CTP, and SPECT before ICA. Prognostic performance according binary results (normal/abnormal) was assessed by 5-year major cardiovascular events (MACE) free survival and area under the receiver-operating-characteristic curve (AUC).
Results
Follow up beyond 2-years was available in 323 patients. MACE-free survival rate was greater among patients with normal combined CTA/CTP findings compared to ICA/SPECT: 85 vs. 80% (95% confidence interval [CI] for difference 0.1, 11.3) though event-free survival time was similar (4.54 vs. 4.37 years, 95% CI for difference: 0.03, 0.36). Abnormal results by combined CTA/CTP was associated with 3.83 years event-free survival vs. 3.66 years after abnormal combined ICA/SPECT (95% CI for difference: 0.05, 0.39, CI −1.0, 11.1) (Figure). Predicting MACE by AUC also was similar: 65 vs. 65 (difference 0.1; 95% CI: −4.6, 4.9). When MACE was restricted to death, myocardial infarction, or stroke, AUC for CTA/CTP was 66 vs. 61 by ICA/SPECT (difference 5.1; 95% CI: −7.1, 12.9).
Conclusions
Combined CTA/CTP yield similar 5-year prognostic performance as joined ICA/SPECT assessment in patients presenting with suspected coronary heart disease and thus may represent a fast, non-invasive alternative to the traditional diagnostic approach.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Recent development of electrophysiology-guided noninvasive cardiac radioablation therapy for ventricular tachycardia attracts a great deal of attention as a novel antiarrhythmic strategy (Robinson CG, Circulation 2019). As to underlying mechanisms, however, much remains to be clarified. We reported before that a single targeted heavy ion irradiation (THIR 15Gy) to rabbit hearts increased connexin43 (Cx43) expression, and a reduction of vulnerability to ventricular arrhythmias after myocardial infarction.
Purpose
We investigated the effects of THIR on in-vivo cardiac electrophysiology and vulnerability to atrial and ventricular tachyarrhythmias in aged rabbits with hypercholesterolemia.
Methods
Sixteen three-year old rabbits were fed with high fat/cholesterol chow (0.5% cholesterol and 10% coconut oil) for 14 weeks. A single THIR 15Gy was applied to 8 rabbits (HC+THIR) with a heavy ion medical accelerator. Eight rabbits without THIR were used as control (HC).
Results
Serum cholesterol levels in the HC and HC+THIR were 1545+386 and 1569+328 mg/dl (n=8, NS). Atrial (P-wave) late potential in signal-averaged ECG in HC+THIR showed a significantly larger root mean square voltage (RMS) than those in HC (12+0.5 vs. 2+0.5μV, n=4, p<0.01). Ventricular late potentials in HC+THIR showed significantly less fQRS-D than HC (81+5 vs. 89+7 ms); less LAS40 (21+7 vs. 30+4 ms), and larger RMS (99+27 vs. 44+13μV) (n=4, p<0.04). Atrial tachycardia or fibrillation (AT/AF) was induced spontaneously or by programmed/burst pacing of the left atria (LA) in 4 out of 4 HC, whereas in only 1 out of 4 HC+THIR. Ventricular tachycardia or fibrillation (VT/VF) was induced spontaneously or by programmed pacing or left stellate stimulation in 4 out of 4 HC rabbits, whereas in only 1 out of 4 HC+THIR. Immunolabeled Cx40 densities in LA and RA tissue from HC+THIR rabbits were significantly higher than those from HC rabbits by 44% and 60%, respectively (n=4, p<0.01). Comparable upregulation of immunoreactive Cx43 was observed in LV and RV tissue from HC+THIR rabbits. Sympathetic nerve densities in LA, RA, LV and RV tissues, which was labeled with anti-neuronal growth-associated protein 43 (GAP43) antibody and tyrosine hydroxylase (TH) antibody were both significantly less in HC+THIR than those in HC.
Conclusion
These results suggest that THIR may improve cardiac conductivity of HC rabbits in favor of reduction of vulnerability to atrial and ventricular tachycardia/fibrillation, and that this antiarrhythmic effect is attributed to upregulation of gap junction protein (Cx40 and Cx43) and in part to prevention of sympathetic nerve sprouting.

Abstract
In this study, we developed a calving prediction model based on continuous measurements of ventral tail base skin temperature (ST) with supervised machine learning and evaluated the predictive ability of the model in 2 dairy farms with distinct cattle management practices. The ST data were collected at 2- or 10-min intervals from 105 and 33 pregnant cattle (mean ± standard deviation: 2.2 ± 1.8 parities) reared in farms A (freestall barn, in a temperate climate) and B (tiestall barn, in a subarctic climate), respectively. After extracting maximum hourly ST, the change in values was expressed as residual ST (rST = actual hourly ST - mean ST for the same hour on the previous 3 d) and analyzed. In both farms, rST decreased in a biphasic manner before calving. Briefly, an ambient temperature-independent gradual decrease occurred from around 36 to 16 h before calving, and an ambient temperature-dependent sharp decrease occurred from around 6 h before until calving. To make a universal calving prediction model, training data were prepared from pregnant cattle under different ambient temperatures (10 data sets were randomly selected from each of the 3 ambient temperature groups: <15°C, ≥15°C to <25°C, and ≥25°C in farm A). An hourly calving prediction model was then constructed with the training data by support vector machine based on 15 features extracted from sensing data (indicative of pre-calving rST changes) and 1 feature from non-sensor-based data (days to expected calving date). When the prediction model was applied to the data that were not part of the training process, calving within the next 24 h was predicted with sensitivities and precisions of 85.3% and 71.9% in farm A (n = 75), and 81.8% and 67.5% in farm B (n = 33), respectively. No differences were observed in means and variances of intervals from the calving alerts to actual calving between farms (12.7 ± 5.8 and 13.0 ± 5.6 h in farms A and B, respectively). Above all, a calving prediction model based on continuous measurement of ST with supervised machine learning has the potential to achieve effective calving prediction, irrespective of the rearing condition in dairy cattle.

Abstract
The Hayabusa2 spacecraft investigated the small asteroid Ryugu, which has a rubble-pile structure. We describe an impact experiment on Ryugu using Hayabusa2's Small Carry-on Impactor. The impact produced an artificial crater with a diameter >10 meters, which has a semicircular shape, an elevated rim, and a central pit. Images of the impact and resulting ejecta were recorded by the Deployable CAMera 3 for >8 minutes, showing the growth of an ejecta curtain (the outer edge of the ejecta) and deposition of ejecta onto the surface. The ejecta curtain was asymmetric and heterogeneous and it never fully detached from the surface. The crater formed in the gravity-dominated regime; in other words, crater growth was limited by gravity not surface strength. We discuss implications for Ryugu's surface age.

Abstract
The present study aimed to clarify the possibility of detection of ovulation disorders and normal ovulation in Japanese Black cows using wearable wireless sensors based on continuous measurements of body surface temperature (ST) and neck acceleration data. For cows with normal ovulation (n=19, 8.5 years old, 476.2kg), controlled internal drug release (CIDR) and gonadotrophin-releasing hormone were administered on arbitrary days of the oestrous cycle (Day −10), and oestrus was induced by CIDR removal and prostaglandin F2α administration (Day −3). Ovulation (Day 0) was induced by gonadotrophin-releasing hormone administration on estimated oestrus day (Day −1) and was detected based on the disappearance of ≥8mm follicles using ultrasonography at 1- to 2-h intervals. For cows with spontaneous ovarian cysts (n=11, 8.6 years old, 471.2kg), oestrus and the next day were defined as Days −1 and 0, respectively. Plasma concentrations of progesterone (P4) and oestradiol-17β (E2) were measured on Days −9, −6, −2, −1, 0, 1, 5, and 8. The body ST sensor was attached to the ventral tail base (Day −16), and ST was measured every 10min for 24 days. For analysis of ST, after extracting hourly maximum ST values, the values were expressed as residual ST (RST; ST − mean ST for the same hour on the previous 3 days) for removal of circadian rhythm (Miura et al. 2017 Anim. Reprod. Sci. 180, 50-57; https://doi.org/10.1016/j.anireprosci.2017.03). The acceleration sensor (Farmnote Color, Farmnote Inc.) was attached to the neck (Day −16). Hourly oestrus level (amount of oestrus activity) was obtained from the amount of activity; the difference between the residual oestrus level (REL; same calculation as RST) and measured values of each day was used. To identify RST and REL of cows with normal ovulation and cows with ovarian cysts, the mean values and standard deviations for the same hours for 3-7 days before oestrus were calculated. Mean RST and REL for 3-7 days before oestrus were assumed according to the normal distribution. The 95% confidence range was determined using×1 standard deviation of all hours. Values over the 95% confidence range for ≥5h were considered to be different from the mean 4 days and the 5% level. For RST, no difference was found in both groups due to the large influence of environment, particularly low temperature. However, for REL, a difference was indicated for oestrus in all cows (P<0.05). A large peak of REL appeared once on oestrus (>14.4 REL for 20h) in normal cows, and three peaks occurred in <21 days (>16.2 REL for 21, 15, and 15h) in cows with ovulation disorders (P<0.05). The REL rapidly increased following peaking E2 and decreasing P4 to oestrus (Day −1) in normal cows. In cows with an ovulation disorder, REL increased on oestrus; however, E2 and P4 remained high and low stable to oestrus, respectively. In conclusion, oestrus activity and the characteristics of normal cows and those with an ovulation disorder can be detected by the neck acceleration sensor using the correction value.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) results in an immediate and greater aortic pressure gradient improvement in patients with severe aortic valve stenosis (AS), and induces early left ventricular (LV) mass regression, which may be related to favorable effects on the mid to long term outcomes. However, the extent of LV mass regression after unloading of chronic pressure overload is varying, and its determinants are still unknown. Thus, the study aims to identify echocardiographic determinants of LV mass regression following TAVI.
Methods
We retrospectively screened all TAVI procedures in symptomatic AS from 2017 to 2019, and selected 74 successful TAVI cases that had serial echocardiographic studies both at the baseline and at the mid-term follow-up (4 to 6 months after the procedure). Through the digitalized medical records, clinical and echocardiographic data as well as angiographic grading (0-3) of post-procedure paravalvular leakage (PVL) were obtained. LV mass was calculated by using Cube formula. Thus, the extent of LV mass regression was defined as the differences of left ventricular mas index (LVMI) between at the baseline and at the follow-up (ΔLVMI). Quantification of the baseline mitral valve regurgitant volume was performed by stroke volume method with pulmonic site measurement on the assumption of no pre-existing intra/extra cardiac shunt. Cases with prior mitral valve replacement were excluded.
Results
At the post-procedure angiogram, only 3 cases had significant PVL (grade 2≤). At the mid-term follow–up, average LVMI decreased significantly from the baseline (165 ± 38 g/m2vs 140 ± 37 mg/ m2, P < 0.0001) and 57 cases (70%) experienced the reduction of LVMI, although average relative wall thickness (2 × posterior wall thickness/left ventricular diastolic dimension) did not change (0.565 ± 0.135 vs 0.586 ± 0.168, P = 0.314). Among the baseline clinical and echocardiographic variables, the baseline peak A wave velocity, E/A ratio, mitral valve regurgitant volume and LVMI revealed simple correlation with ΔLVMI (γ=-0.298, p = 0.0188;γ=0.251, P = 0.0417;γ=0.354, p = 0.0041;γ=0.375, p < 0.0010; respectively), whereas no correlation was observed in angiographic PVL grade. Stepwise multiple regression analysis demonstrated baseline mitral valve regurgitant volume and LVMI as the determinants of ΔLVMI (β=0.344, p = 0.032; β=0.335 P < 0.0001; respectively).
Conclusions
Pre-existing mitral regurgitation has an impact on the mid–term left ventricular mass regression following TAVI. In severe AS, mitral regurgitation might be functioning as an afterload adjuster, and thus, produces protective effects on LV structure.

Abstract
Ultrahigh-repetition-rate (1.1 GHz), deep-ultraviolet coherent light at 208.8 nm is generated by applying an external Fabry-Pérot cavity for repetition-rate multiplication to the fourth harmonics of a 10-ps, mode-locked Ti:sapphire laser. Its small pulse energy minimizes the unwanted space charge effect, while its high repetition rate drastically reduces the acquisition time in high-energy resolution angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy using hemispherical electron analyzers. The absence of the space charge effect in the photoemission spectrum near the Fermi edge of polycrystalline Au at 8 K demonstrates this idea.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The antral follicle count (AFC) in mammalian ovaries positively correlates with female fertility. To clarify the causes of differences in fertility between low and high AFC cows, we investigated follicular growth dynamics and hormone concentrations in plasma, follicular fluid, and in vitro growth (IVG) media at different stages of follicular growth. METHODS Seven cows were divided into high AFC (n = 4, > 30 follicles) and low AFC (n = 3, < 30 follicles) groups based on the peak AFC detected by ultrasonography. These cows were subjected to estrous synchronization, daily ovarian ultrasonography, and blood collection. Their follicular fluid was collected from dominant follicles at different stages (selection, luteal, and ovulatory phases). In another experiment, we cultured oocyte-cumulus-granulosa cell complexes collected from early antral follicles (< 1 mm) for 12 days. Estradiol-17β (E2), testosterone (T), progesterone (P4), and anti-Müllerian hormone (AMH) concentrations in follicular fluids and plasma were measured. Plasma follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) concentrations were examined. E2, P4, and AMH concentrations were also measured in IVG media. RESULTS The numbers of small (< 4 mm) and intermediate (4-8 mm) follicles were larger in the high AFC group than in the low AFC group (P < 0.05). The number of intermediate follicles was stable in the low AFC group, indicating consistent development. However, the number of these follicles fluctuated in the high AFC group. Plasma FSH concentrations were higher, whereas E2 and T concentrations were lower in the low AFC group (P < 0.05). E2 concentrations and the E2/P4 ratio in ovulatory follicles and IVG media on day 8 were higher in the high AFC group (P < 0.05). AMH concentrations in plasma and IVG media (P < 0.01) were higher in the high AFC group. CONCLUSIONS The weaker response to FSH of granulosa cells caused low E2 production in the low AFC group, resulting in high FSH concentrations and the consistent development of intermediate follicles. Conversely, higher E2 concentrations suppressed FSH secretion in the high AFC group. Granulosa cells in the high AFC group had the ability to produce more AMH than those in the low AFC group throughout IVG culture.

Abstract
We aimed to define whether embryo collection carried out after pseudopregnancy was of similar outcome and quality as after artificial abortion. To induce pseudopregnancy, 30 gilts or sows were given 20 mg intramuscular estradiol dipropionate (EDP) 10-11 days after the onset of estrus. Ten additional pigs were inseminated artificially at natural estrus as a control group. Prostaglandin F2α (PGF2α ) was administered twice with a 24 hr interval beginning 15, 20, or 25 days after EDP-treatment (n = 10 per group) or between 23 and 39 days after artificial insemination in control pigs. Following this, all pigs were given 1,000 IU equine chorionic gonadotropin and 500 IU human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) and then inseminated. Embryos were recovered 6 or 7 days after hCG treatment and outcome was recorded. There was no significant difference in the number of normal embryos collected from the pigs with PGF2α initiated at different time points or from the control group. Embryonic developmental stages 7 days after hCG treatment also did not differ among groups. These results indicate that the use of EDP to induce pseudopregnancy, followed by PGF2α administration to synchronize estrus for subsequent embryo harvest, is a suitable alternative to the artificial abortion method.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Recent guidelines have stated that reduced left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) is the gold standard marker for identifying patients at risk for cardiac mortality. Although reduced LVEF identifies patients at an increased risk of cardiac arrest, sudden cardiac deaths (SCDs) occur considerably more often in patients with relatively preserved LVEF. Current guidelines on SCD risk stratification do not adequately cover this general population pool. Several noninvasive electrocardiographic (ECG) risk stratifiers that reflect depolarization abnormality, repolarization abnormality, and autonomic imbalance have been evaluated so far. With current therapeutic advances using new medicines or devices, an LVEF is often preserved in patients with structural heart disease (SHD). However, the usefulness of noninvasive ECG markers for risk stratification in such a patient population has not yet been elucidated.
Purpose
This study aimed to assess clinical indices and ECG markers based on 24-hour Holter ECG recordings for predicting cardiac mortality in patients with SHD who have left ventricular dysfunction (LVD) but relatively preserved LVEF.
Methods
In total, 1,829 patients were enrolled into the Japanese Multicenter Observational Prospective Study (JANIES study). In this study, we analyzed data of 719 patients (569 men, age 64±13 years) with SHD including mainly ischemic heart disease (65.8%). As ECG markers based on 24-hour Holter recordings, nonsustained ventricular tachycardia (NSVT), ventricular late potentials, and heart rate turbulence (HRT) were assessed. The primary endpoint was all-cause mortality, and the secondary endpoint was fatal arrhythmic events.
Results
During a mean follow-up of 21±11 months, all-cause mortality was eventually observed in 39 patients (5.4%). Among those patients, 32 patients (82%) suffered from cardiac causes such as heart failure and arrhythmia. Multivariate Cox regression analysis showed that after adjustment for age and LVEF, documented NSVT (hazard ratio=2.82, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.38–5.76, P=0.005) and abnormal HRT (hazard ratio=2.31, 95% CI: 1.15–4.65, P=0.02) were significantly associated with the primary endpoint. These two ECG markers also had significant predictive values with the secondary endpoint. The combined assessment documented NSVT and abnormal HRT improved predictive accuracy.
Conclusion
This study demonstrated that combined assessment of documented NSVT and abnormal HRT based on 24-hour Holter ECG recordings are recommended for predicting future serious events in SHD patients who have relatively preserved LVEF.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
The values of n-3 and n-6 polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) like low eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) /arachidonic acid (AA) ratio are known to be associated with cardiovascular events, however their relationship with coronary plaque vulnerability in acute myocardial infarction (AMI) is not revealed.
Purpose
We evaluated the relationship between n-3 and n-6 PUFAs and coronary plaque vulnerability assessed by optical coherence tomography (OCT) in AMI patients.
Methods
We investigated 79 AMI lesions (51 ST elevated myocardial infarction (STEMI) lesions and 28 non-STEMI lesions) that had undergone emergency percutaneous coronary intervention using OCT. Coronary plaque characteristics by OCT were compared with n-3 and n-6 PUFAs values which were measured on admission.
Results
Of all AMI lesions (n=79), 43 thin-cap fibroatheroma (TCFA) and 35 plaque rapture (PR) were detected by OCT. Lesions with TCFA had no significant relationship with n-3 and n-6 PUFAs values, whereas lesion with PR had significantly lower EPA values than those without (55.8±29.5 vs 74.3±37.1 μg/ml, p=0.018). Median low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol value was 117 (98–137) mg/dl and sub-analysis in patients who had lower LDL cholesterol values than median (n=39) revealed that EPA values were significantly lower in lesions with TCFA (56.3±30.9 vs 85.3±47.7 μg/ml, p=0.03). In STEMI patients, the values of EPA and EPA/AA ratio were significantly lower in lesions with TCFA (EPA: 55.5±22.8 vs 80.8±46.1 μg/ml, p=0.01; EPA/AA ratio: 0.34±0.16 vs 0.50±0.36, p=0.03). STEMI patients who had lower LDL cholesterol values <114 mg/dl of median (n=26), the values of EPA, EPA/AA ratio, and EPA+ docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) /AA ratio were significantly lower in lesions with TCFA (EPA: 51.4±20.7 vs 93.1±53.0 μg/ml, p=0.01; EPA/AA ratio: 0.37±0.16 vs 0.67±0.41, p=0.01; EPA+DHA/AA ratio: 1.13±0.41 vs 1.63±0.76, p=0.04). In STEMI patients with lower LDL cholesterol values, EPA/AA ratio positively correlated with fibrous cap thickness (Spearman, ρ=0.35, p=0.08). The cutoff value of EPA/AA ratio predicting the existence of TCFA was 0.52 (area under the curve 0.78, sensitivity 93.8%, specificity 70.0%, p=0.02).
Conclusion
This study demonstrated that n-3 and n-6 PUFAs values were associated with coronary plaque vulnerability by OCT in AMI patients, especially in STEMI. These results suggest that n-3 and n-6 PUFAs may be residual risk markers of severe acute cardiovascular events in patients with low LDL cholesterol values.

Abstract
Introduction
Cognitive impairment (CI) is associated with worse prognosis in patients with heart failure, especially in the elderly; however, its incremental prognostic ability in pre-existing prognostic models has not been well elucidated. Moreover, although some tools have been proposed for evaluating cognitive function, their difference in prognostic prediction has not been explicitly compared.
Methods
A total of 352 heart failure patients aged ≥75 years admitted to three hospitals were evaluated for their cognitive function using the Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE) and Mini-cog during index hospitalization. We diagnosed CI if MMSE and Mini-cog were ≤23 and ≤2, respectively. The primary endpoint was all-cause death.
Results
The median age of the entire cohort was 85 (IQR: 80–88) years, and 47.7% of the subjects were male. Based on the MMSE and Mini-cog, the CI was diagnosed in 167 (47.4%) and 159 (45.2%) patients, respectively. The two diagnostic tools showed poor to moderate agreement (Cohen's kappa coefficient: 0.37, 95% CI: 0.27–0.47). During the follow-up period of median 346 (IQR: 195–489) days, 53 patients (15.1%) died. Although the Kaplan-Meier analysis showed that CI diagnosed using Mini-cog (CI-MC) was associated with significantly higher mortality (P=0.001), this association was not significant for CI diagnosed using MMSE (CI-MMSE) (P=0.059). On multivariate Cox regression analysis, CI-MMSE and CI-MC were individually associated with worse prognosis in older heart failure patients even after adjustment for Meta-Analysis Global Group in Chronic Heart Failure (MAGGIC) risk model and log B-type natriuretic peptide levels (CI-MMSE, HR: 2.05 [95% CI: 1.16–3.61]; and CI-MC, HR: 2.57 [95% CI: 1.46–4.53]). The receiver operating characteristic curve analysis for Mini-cog showed significantly higher area under the curve (AUC) than that for MMSE (0.61 vs. 0.52, p=0.045). To test the incremental prognostic capability, models were constructed by individually adding each score to the MAGGIC risk model, and the net reclassification improvement (NRI) and integrated discrimination improvement (IDI) were evaluated. CI-MMSE did not show incremental prognostic predictability (NRI: 0.28, p=0.069; IDI: 0.01, p=0.090), whereas CI-MC (NRI: 0.45, p=0.001; IDI: 0.03, p=0.001) did. Adding CI-MC instead of CI-MMSE to the MAGGIC risk model showed significant reclassification improvement (NRI: 0.45, p=0.002, IDI: 0.02, p=0.041).
Conclusion
In older patients with heart failure, CI defined by Mini-Cog is superior in providing additive prognostic value than that defined by CI based on MMSE.

Abstract
The objective of this research was to develop a system for piglet production by transvaginal ultrasound-guided ovum pick-up (OPU), in vitro production (IVP) of embryos and embryo transfer. First, to establish a culture system for a small number of oocytes or embryos, we evaluated the effect of different incubation volumes and culture densities on fertilizing ability and developmental competence in vitro. Porcine oocytes derived from slaughterhouse ovaries were matured, fertilized and then cultured in vitro in groups as follows: 50 oocytes in 500 μL medium for IVM, 20 oocytes in 100 μL medium for IVF and 20 embryos in 40 μL medium for IVC (Group I); 20 in 100 μL for IVM, 20 in 100 μL for IVF and 20 in 40 μL for IVC (Group II); and 10 in 100 μL for IVM, 10 in 100 μL for IVF and 10 in 40 μL for IVC (Group III). Percentages of sperm penetration, cleavage and blastocyst formation did not differ among the groups. Second, to increase the collection efficiency of porcine oocytes by transvaginal ultrasound-guided OPU, the effects of aspiration pressure on follicular oocyte collection were assessed. Oocytes were aspirated from ovaries of live sows using 80 or 100 mmHg. The recovered oocytes were divided into four categories according to the surrounding cumulus cells and quality of oocytes. The number of oocytes recovered using 100 mmHg pressure was significantly higher than with 80 mmHg pressure. However, there were no significant differences in the population of oocytes grouped by the morphological criteria, number of blastocysts per session and the total cell number in blastocysts between the two vacuum pressures. Finally, 81 oocytes obtained by OPU from five donor sows were subjected to IVP and 47 transferable embryos (9.4 ± 4.0 [mean ± SD] morulae/blastocysts per session) were obtained at 5 days after IVF. When they were transferred into five recipient gilts (5-16 embryos per recipient), three of five recipients became pregnant and farrowed a total of 12 live piglets. The present results demonstrate that porcine blastocysts can be produced by OPU-IVP and develop to full term after embryo transfer.

Abstract
The Hayabusa2 spacecraft arrived at the near-Earth carbonaceous asteroid 162173 Ryugu in 2018. We present Hayabusa2 observations of Ryugu's shape, mass, and geomorphology. Ryugu has an oblate "spinning top" shape, with a prominent circular equatorial ridge. Its bulk density, 1.19 ± 0.02 grams per cubic centimeter, indicates a high-porosity (>50%) interior. Large surface boulders suggest a rubble-pile structure. Surface slope analysis shows Ryugu's shape may have been produced from having once spun at twice the current rate. Coupled with the observed global material homogeneity, this suggests that Ryugu was reshaped by centrifugally induced deformation during a period of rapid rotation. From these remote-sensing investigations, we identified a suitable sample collection site on the equatorial ridge.

Abstract
The near-Earth asteroid 162173 Ryugu, the target of the Hayabusa2 sample-return mission, is thought to be a primitive carbonaceous object. We report reflectance spectra of Ryugu's surface acquired with the Near-Infrared Spectrometer (NIRS3) on Hayabusa2, to provide direct measurements of the surface composition and geological context for the returned samples. A weak, narrow absorption feature centered at 2.72 micrometers was detected across the entire observed surface, indicating that hydroxyl (OH)-bearing minerals are ubiquitous there. The intensity of the OH feature and low albedo are similar to thermally and/or shock-metamorphosed carbonaceous chondrite meteorites. There are few variations in the OH-band position, which is consistent with Ryugu being a compositionally homogeneous rubble-pile object generated from impact fragments of an undifferentiated aqueously altered parent body.

Abstract
The near-Earth carbonaceous asteroid 162173 Ryugu is thought to have been produced from a parent body that contained water ice and organic molecules. The Hayabusa2 spacecraft has obtained global multicolor images of Ryugu. Geomorphological features present include a circum-equatorial ridge, east-west dichotomy, high boulder abundances across the entire surface, and impact craters. Age estimates from the craters indicate a resurfacing age of [Formula: see text] years for the top 1-meter layer. Ryugu is among the darkest known bodies in the Solar System. The high abundance and spectral properties of boulders are consistent with moderately dehydrated materials, analogous to thermally metamorphosed meteorites found on Earth. The general uniformity in color across Ryugu's surface supports partial dehydration due to internal heating of the asteroid's parent body.

Abstract
The antral follicle count (AFC) in mammalian ovaries positively correlates with female fertility. We have reported previously that cumulus-oocyte complexes derived from high-AFC ovaries produce more oestradiol-17β (E2) and have higher developmental competence than those from low-AFC ovaries in in vitro growth (Sakaguchi et al. WCRB2017, Okinawa, Japan; 1-15). We also indicated that follicular growth was different between high- and low-AFC cows, and that follicular deviation occurred earlier in high-AFC cows (Nagai et al. 2015 Anim. Reprod. Sci. 163, 172-178). To clarify the causes of the higher E2 production and earlier follicular deviation in high-AFC cows, we investigated circulating steroid hormones and FSH during the oestrous cycle, as well as steroidogenesis in follicles at different phases of the oestrous cycle. Four high-AFC cows (>40 follicles) and 3 low-AFC cows (<20 follicles) based on the peak AFC were used. We ablated their follicles 8 days after oestrus and administered prostaglandin F2α on Day 12. After 40h of prostaglandin F2α injection, follicular fluid of a dominant follicle (preovulatory phase) was collected and subordinate follicles were ablated. Gonadotropin-releasing hormone was then injected to induce LH surge. Seven days after gonadotropin-releasing hormone, follicular fluids were collected from dominant follicles (luteal phase) and all follicles were ablated. Four days later, follicular fluids were again collected from the largest follicles (selection phase). Steroid hormones in follicular fluids were measured by enzyme immunoassay. Throughout the study, we daily examined ovaries by ultrasonography and collected blood for hormone measurements. We analysed data using two-way ANOVA followed by Tukey-Kramer or Student’s t test. The number of small follicles (<4mm) was greater in high-AFC than low-AFC groups (low v. high=7.6v. 46.9; P<0.05), whereas that of large follicles (>8mm) was similar between groups (0.8v. 0.8) at any time. Although the number of medium-sized follicles (4-8mm) was not affected in the low-AFC group (4.2-6.7) after follicle ablation, the number increased from 1 to 4 days (10.5 to 17.8) then decreased 6 days after follicle ablation (11.5) in the high-AFC group, which means that degradation of follicles occurs at selection phase in high-AFC cows. Peripheral FSH concentration was higher (low v. high: 4.7v. 2.1 ng/mL), but E2 concentration was lower in the low-AFC (2.4 pg/mL) than high-AFC group (3.3 pg/mL) during the selection phase (P<0.05). Although follicular diameter was similar in both groups at any phase, E2 (low v. high=333.8v. 1127.4 ng/mL; P<0.05) and testosterone (low v. high=16.7v. 35.0 ng/mL; P=0.07), but not progesterone, concentrations were higher in the high-AFC than low-AFC group in the preovulatory phase. These findings suggest that a lower response to FSH causes low E2 production in the low-AFC group, resulting in high FSH concentration and a consistent development of medium-sized follicles. Conversely, higher E2 concentration suppresses FSH secretion, resulting in obvious degradation of follicles in the high-AFC group at the selection phase.

Abstract
Newly designed Lyman-alpha absorption cells for imaging hydrogen planetary corona were characterized using an ultra high resolution Fourier transform spectrometer installed on the DESIRS (Dichroïsme Et Spectroscopie par Interaction avec le Rayonnement Synchrotron) beamline of Synchrotron SOLEIL in France. The early absorption cell installed in the Japanese Mars orbiter NOZOMI launched in 1998 had not been sufficiently optimized due to its short development time. The new absorption cells are equipped with the ability to change various parameters, such as filament shape, applied power, H2 gas pressure, and geometrical configuration. We found that the optical thickness of the new absorption cell was ∼4 times higher than the earlier one at the center wavelength of Lyman-alpha absorption, by optimizing the condition to promote thermal dissociation of H2 molecules into two H atoms on a hot tungsten filament. The Doppler temperature of planetary coronas could be determined with an accuracy better than 100 K with the performance of the newly developed absorption cell.
