Amniotic fluid embolism rescued using venoarterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation without initial anticoagulation: A case report and literature review. Medicine (Baltimore) 2024; 103:e38176. [PMID: 38758915 PMCID: PMC11098262 DOI: 10.1097/md.0000000000038176] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/29/2024] [Accepted: 04/18/2024] [Indexed: 05/19/2024] Open
Abstract
RATIONALE Amniotic fluid embolism (AFE) is a fatal obstetric condition that often rapidly leads to severe respiratory and circulatory failure. It is complicated by obstetric disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC) with bleeding tendency; therefore, the introduction of venoarterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VA-ECMO) is challenging. We report the case of a patient with AFE requiring massive blood transfusion, rescued using VA-ECMO without initial anticoagulation. PATIENTS CONCERNS A 39-year-old pregnant patient was admitted with a complaint of abdominal pain. An emergency cesarean section was performed because a sudden decrease in fetal heart rate was detected in addition to DIC with hyperfibrinolysis. Intra- and post-operatively, the patient had a bleeding tendency and required massive blood transfusions. After surgery, the patient developed lethal respiratory and circulatory failure, and VA-ECMO was introduced. DIAGNOSIS Based on the course of the illness and imaging findings, the patient was diagnosed with AFE. INTERVENTIONS By controlling the bleeding tendency with a massive transfusion and tranexamic acid administration, using an antithrombotic ECMO circuit, and delaying the initiation of anticoagulation and anti-DIC medication until the bleeding tendency settled, the patient was managed safely on ECMO without complications. OUTCOMES By day 5, both respiration and circulation were stable, and the patient was weaned off VA-ECMO. Mechanical ventilation was discontinued on day 6. Finally, she was discharged home without sequelae. LESSONS VA-ECMO may be effective to save the lives of patients who have AFE with lethal circulatory and respiratory failure. For safe management without bleeding complications, it is important to start VA-ECMO without initial anticoagulants and to administer anticoagulants and anti-DIC drugs after the bleeding tendency has resolved.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Exposure to workplace aggression adversely affects workers' health; however, little is known regarding the impact of specific types of verbal content. AIMS We aimed to examine the relationship between exposure to several types of aggressive words at work and the victim's depressive symptoms and sleep disturbance using text mining. METHODS We conducted a longitudinal survey with 800 workers in wholesale and retail companies; of which, 500 responded to the follow-up survey. The Centre for Epidemiologic Studies-Depression Scale and Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index were filled out by the participants, and their responses were analysed by logistic regression to evaluate the risk of depression or sleep problems. We collected exact aggressive words encountered at work over the past year as a dependent variable and classified it into four types using text mining, such as words criticizing one's performance. RESULTS The follow-up rate was 63%. Exposure to words threatening one's life showed a significant relationship with the risk of depression (odds ratio [OR] = 13.94, 95% confidence interval [CI] = 1.76-110.56). The exposure to words criticizing one's job performance is significantly related to the risk of sleep disturbance (OR = 5.56, 95% CI = 2.08-14.88). CONCLUSIONS These findings suggest that different contents of verbal aggression can have different impacts on workers' health. This indicates that not only overtly threatening and abusive language but also words related to one's performance can be a risk factor for workers, depending on how they are delivered. To mitigate the adverse effects, promoting effective communication and cultivating psychological detachment from work may be beneficial.

Venoarterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation for group B streptococcal toxic shock syndrome: A case report and literature review. Medicine (Baltimore) 2023; 102:e34680. [PMID: 37713845 PMCID: PMC10508388 DOI: 10.1097/md.0000000000034680] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/13/2023] [Accepted: 07/20/2023] [Indexed: 09/17/2023] Open
Abstract
RATIONALE Streptococcal toxic shock syndrome (STSS) rapidly leads to refractory shock and multiple organ failure. The mortality rate among patients with STSS is 40%; however, most deaths occur within a few days of onset. Venoarterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VA-ECMO) may help avoid acute death in adult patients with STSS. However, the effectiveness of VA-ECMO is unclear. In this study, we report a case of group B STSS, which was successfully treated with VA-ECMO despite cardiopulmonary arrest (CPA) owing to rapidly progressive refractory shock. PATIENT CONCERNS A 60-year-old woman was hospitalized because of diarrhea and electrolyte abnormalities owing to chemoradiation therapy for rectal cancer. A sudden deterioration of her condition led to CPA. Conventional cardiopulmonary resuscitation was immediately performed but was ineffective. Therefore, VA-ECMO was initiated. Contrast-enhanced computed tomography revealed duodenal perforation. Hence, septic shock owing to peritonitis was diagnosed, and emergency surgery was performed under VA-ECMO. However, the patient had progressive multiple organ failure and required organ support therapy in the intensive care unit (ICU). DIAGNOSES On day 2 in the ICU, blood and ascites fluid culture tests revealed beta-hemolytic streptococci, and the patient was finally diagnosed as having STSS caused by Streptococcus agalactiae. INTERVENTIONS Clindamycin was added to meropenem, vancomycin, and micafungin, which had been administered since the sudden deterioration. In addition, VA-ECMO, mechanical ventilation, blood purification therapy, and treatment for disseminated intravascular coagulation were continued. OUTCOMES Thereafter, hemodynamics improved rapidly, and the patient was weaned off VA-ECMO on day 5 of ICU admission. She was transferred to a general ward on day 22 in the ICU. LESSONS In patients with fatal STSS and rapid progressive refractory shock or CPA, VA-ECMO may help to avoid acute death and improve prognosis by ameliorating tissue oxygenation and providing extra time to treat invasive streptococcal infection.

Refractory cardiac arrest caused by type I Kounis syndrome treated with adrenaline and nicorandil: A case report. Medicine (Baltimore) 2023; 102:e34535. [PMID: 37565887 PMCID: PMC10419590 DOI: 10.1097/md.0000000000034535] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/15/2023] [Accepted: 07/10/2023] [Indexed: 08/12/2023] Open
Abstract
RATIONALE Kounis syndrome is a rare but life-threatening anaphylactic reaction that can lead to acute coronary syndrome and cardiac arrest, and requires prompt diagnosis. Adrenaline, which is used to treat anaphylaxis, may cause coronary vasoconstriction and worsen ischemia, whereas coronary vasodilators may dilate systemic vessels and exacerbate hypotension. Delayed diagnosis of Kounis syndrome and inadequate therapeutic intervention may thus lead to a poor outcome. PATIENT CONCERNS A 59-year-old man was treated for sepsis due to a liver abscess. Following administration of daptomycin, the patient developed severe anaphylactic shock leading to refractory cardiac arrest. Because conventional cardiopulmonary resuscitation was ineffective, extracorporeal cardiopulmonary resuscitation was considered as an alternative approach. DIAGNOSES On bedside monitoring during cardiopulmonary resuscitation, unexpected ST-segment elevation was found on lead II electrocardiogram. Accordingly, the patient was clinically diagnosed with Kounis syndrome. INTERVENTIONS Nicorandil (6 mg/h), a coronary vasodilator with minimal blood pressure effects, was administered along with high doses of vasopressors, including adrenaline 0.2 µg/kg/min. OUTCOMES After the initiation of nicorandil administration, the patient achieved return of spontaneous circulation and did not require extracorporeal cardiopulmonary resuscitation. Based on the elevated serum tryptase level, normal creatine kinase-MB range, and lack of stenosis on coronary angiography, the patient was definitively diagnosed with type I (coronary vasospasm) Kounis syndrome. He was subsequently transferred to the referring hospital without neurological sequelae. LESSONS If anaphylaxis leads to refractory shock and cardiac arrest, ischemic changes on the electrocardiogram should be investigated to identify underlying Kounis syndrome. In addition to adrenaline, coronary dilators are the definitive treatment. Nicorandil may be a useful treatment option because of its minimal effect on blood pressure.

Abstract
Rodent animal models for vital pulp therapy are commonly used in dental research because their tooth anatomy and cellular processes are similar to the anatomy and processes in humans. However, most studies have been conducted using uninfected sound teeth, which makes it difficult to adequately assess the inflammatory shift after vital pulp therapy. In the present study, we aimed to establish a caries-induced pulpitis model based on the conventional rat caries model and then evaluate inflammatory changes during the wound-healing process after pulp capping in a model of reversible pulpitis induced by carious infection. To establish the caries-induced pulpitis model, the pulpal inflammatory status was investigated at different stages of caries progression by immunostaining targeted to specific inflammatory biomarkers. Immunohistochemical staining revealed that both Toll-like receptor 2 and proliferating cell nuclear antigen were expressed in moderate and severe caries-stimulated pulp, indicating that an immune reaction occurred at both stages of caries progression. M2 macrophages were predominant in moderate caries-stimulated pulp, whereas M1 macrophages were predominant in the severe caries-stimulated pulp. Pulp capping in teeth with moderate caries (i.e., teeth with reversible pulpitis) led to complete tertiary dentin formation within 28 d after treatment. Impaired wound healing was observed in teeth with severe caries (i.e., teeth with irreversible pulpitis). During the wound-healing process in reversible pulpitis after pulp capping, M2 macrophages were predominant at all time points; their proliferative capacity was upregulated in the early stage of wound healing compared with healthy pulp. In conclusion, we successfully established a caries-induced pulpitis model for studies of vital pulp therapy. M2 macrophages have an important role in the early stages of the wound-healing process in reversible pulpitis.

Abstract
Although vital pulp therapy should be performed by promoting the wound-healing capacity of dental pulp, existing pulp-capping materials were not developed with a focus on the pulpal repair process. In previous investigations of wound healing in dental pulp, we found that organic dentin matrix components (DMCs) were degraded by matrix metalloproteinase-20, and DMC degradation products containing protein S100A7 (S100A7) and protein S100A8 (S100A8) promoted the pulpal wound-healing process. However, the direct use of recombinant proteins as pulp-capping materials may cause clinical problems or lead to high medical costs. Thus, we hypothesized that functional peptides derived from recombinant proteins could solve the problems associated with direct use of such proteins. In this study, we identified functional peptides derived from the protein S100 family and investigated their effects on dental pulp tissue. We first performed amino acid sequence alignments of protein S100 family members from several mammalian sources, then identified candidate peptides. Next, we used a peptide array method that involved human dental pulp stem cells (hDPSCs) to evaluate the mineralization-inducing ability of each peptide. Our results supported the selection of 4 candidate functional peptides derived from proteins S100A8 and S100A9. Direct pulp-capping experiments in a rat model demonstrated that 1 S100A8-derived peptide induced greater tertiary dentin formation compared with the other peptides. To investigate the mechanism underlying this induction effect, we performed liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry analysis using hDPSCs and the S100A8-derived peptide; the results suggested that this peptide promotes tertiary dentin formation by inhibiting inflammatory responses. In addition, this peptide was located in a hairpin region on the surface of S100A8 and could function by direct interaction with other molecules. In summary, this study demonstrated that a S100A8-derived functional peptide promoted wound healing in dental pulp; our findings provide insights for the development of next-generation biological vital pulp therapies.

Abstract
To estimate the health-promoting effects of Lacticaseibacillus paracasei (previously Lactobacillus casei) strain Shirota (LcS) that reached the lower gastrointestinal tract alive, we investigated the characteristics of gut microbiome, organic acid profiles, defecatory symptoms and serum viral antibody indexes of healthy Japanese adults between the group in whom live LcS was detected or not from stool. The β-diversity index of the gut microbiome constituted a significant difference between the live-LcS-detected-group (LLD) and the live-LcS-not-detected-group (LLnD). In the LLD, the Bifidobacteriaceae, Lactobacillaceae, and Coriobacteriaceae counts were significantly higher, and the succinate concentration was significantly lower than that in the LLnD. The serum herpes simplex virus (HSV) immunoglobulin (Ig)M antibody index in the LLD tended to be lower than that of the LLnD in HSV IgG-positive subjects. Of the LLD, those in the fermented milk products containing LcS (FML)-high-frequency-group (FML-HF) and those in the FML-low-frequency-group (FML-LF) had different gut microbiome and organic acid profiles. However, the pattern of differences between FML-HF and FML-LF was dissimilar those between LLD and LLnD. In contrast, among subjects with FML-LF, those in the group with LLD in stool (LF-LLD) and those in the LLnD in stool (LF-LLnD) showed a similar pattern of differences in their gut microbiome and organic acid profiles as those in the LLnD and LLD. The LLD and LF-LLD commonly had lower caloric and carbohydrate intakes from the diet than their respective control groups. In this study, we found that the presence of live LcS in stool is associated with a healthy gut environment and inhibition of the reactivation of latently infected viruses in the host. However, these health-promoting effects on the host were not related to the frequency of FML intake. Furthermore, dysbiosis of the gut microbiome and diet including caloric intake was related to the viability of ingested LcS in the gut.

Abstract
Background The required fluid volume differs among patients with septic shock. Enterocyte injury caused by shock may increase the need for fluid by triggering a systematic inflammatory response or an ischemia-reperfusion injury in the presence of intestinal ischemia/necrosis. This study aimed to evaluate the association between enterocyte injury and positive fluid balance in patients with septic shock. Methods This study was a post hoc exploratory analysis of a prospective observational study that assessed the association between serum intestinal fatty acid-binding protein, a biomarker of enterocyte injury, and mortality in patients with septic shock. Intestinal fatty acid-binding protein levels were recorded on intensive care unit admission, and fluid balance was monitored from intensive care unit admission to Day 7. The association between intestinal fatty acid-binding protein levels at admission and the infusion balance during the early period after intensive care unit admission was evaluated. Multiple linear regression analysis, with adjustments for severity score and renal function, was performed. Results Overall, data of 57 patients were analyzed. Logarithmically transformed intestinal fatty acid-binding protein levels were significantly associated with cumulative fluid balance per body weight at 24 and 72 h post-intensive care unit admission both before (Pearson’s r = 0.490 [95% confidence interval: 0.263–0.666]; P < 0.001 and r = 0.479 [95% confidence interval: 0.240–0.664]; P < 0.001, respectively) and after (estimate, 14.4 [95% confidence interval: 4.1–24.7]; P = 0.007 and estimate, 26.9 [95% confidence interval: 11.0–42.7]; P = 0.001, respectively) adjusting for severity score and renal function. Conclusions Enterocyte injury was significantly associated with cumulative fluid balance at 24 and 72 h post-intensive care unit admission. Enterocyte injury in patients with septic shock may be related to excessive fluid accumulation during the early period after intensive care unit admission.

Removal of a catheter mount and heat-and-moisture exchanger improves hypercapnia in patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome: A retrospective observational study. Medicine (Baltimore) 2021; 100:e27199.

Abstract
ABSTRACT To avoid ventilator-associated lung injury in acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) treatment, respiratory management should be performed at a low tidal volume of 6 to 8 mL/kg and plateau pressure of ≤30 cmH2O. However, such lung-protective ventilation often results in hypercapnia, which is a risk factor for poor outcomes. The purpose of this study was to retrospectively evaluate the effectiveness and safety of the removal of a catheter mount (CM) and using heated humidifiers (HH) instead of a heat-and-moisture exchanger (HME) for reducing the mechanical dead space created by the CM and HME, which may improve hypercapnia in patients with ARDS.This retrospective observational study included adult patients with ARDS, who developed hypercapnia (PaCO2 > 45 mm Hg) during mechanical ventilation, with target tidal volumes between 6 and 8 mL/kg and a plateau pressure of ≤30 cmH2O, and underwent stepwise removal of CM and HME (replaced with HH). The PaCO2 values were measured at 3 points: ventilator circuit with CM and HME (CM + HME) use, with HME (HME), and with HH (HH), and the overall number of accidental extubations was evaluated. Ventilator values (tidal volume, respiratory rate, minutes volume) were evaluated at the same points.A total of 21 patients with mild-to-moderate ARDS who were treated under deep sedation were included. The values of PaCO2 at HME (52.7 ± 7.4 mm Hg, P < .0001) and HH (46.3 ± 6.8 mm Hg, P < .0001) were significantly lower than those at CM + HME (55.9 ± 7.9 mm Hg). Measured ventilator values were similar at CM + HME, HME, and HH. There were no cases of reintubation due to accidental extubation after the removal of CM.The removal of CM and HME reduced PaCO2 values without changing the ventilator settings in deeply sedated patients with mild-to-moderate ARDS on lung-protective ventilation. Caution should be exercised, as the removal of a CM may result in circuit disconnection or accidental extubation. Nevertheless, this intervention may improve hypercapnia and promote lung-protective ventilation.

Abstract
RATIONALE We present the first case of a patient with severe aortic stenosis who developed anaphylactic shock and was successfully treated with adrenaline and landiolol, a highly selective β1-receptor blocker, to prevent disruption of the myocardial oxygen supply-demand balance caused by tachycardia. PATIENT CONCERNS An 86-year-old woman was scheduled for simultaneous anterior-posterior fixation for a burst fracture of the 12th thoracic vertebra; 200 mg sugammadex, a neuromuscular blocking agent antagonist, was administered postoperatively, and she was extubated without complications. However, 6 min after extubation, her blood pressure decreased abruptly to 55/29 mm Hg, and her heart rate increased to 78 bpm. Then, we intervened with fluid loading, an increased dose of noradrenaline, and phenylephrine administration. However, her blood pressure did not increase. DIAGNOSES A general observation revealed urticaria on the lower leg; thus, we suspected anaphylactic shock due to sugammadex administration. INTERVENTIONS We carefully administered 2 doses of 0.05 mg adrenaline and simultaneously administered landiolol at 60 μg/kg/min to suppress adrenaline-induced tachycardia. Adrenaline administration resulted in a rapid increase in blood pressure to 103/66 mm Hg and a maximum heart rate of 100 bpm, suppressing excessive tachycardia. OUTCOMES The patient's general condition was stable after the intervention, and circulatory agonists could be discontinued the following day. She was discharged from the intensive care unit on the fourth postoperative day. LESSONS Landiolol may help control the heart rate of patients with aortic stenosis and anaphylactic shock. The combined use of landiolol and adrenaline may improve patient outcomes; however, their efficacy and risks must be evaluated by studying additional cases.

Abstract
IMPORTANCE The severity of oxaliplatin (L-OHP)-induced peripheral sensory neuropathy (PSN) exhibits substantial interpatient variability, and some patients suffer from long-term, persisting PSN. OBJECTIVE To identify single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) predicting L-OHP-induced PSN using a genome-wide association study (GWAS) approach. DESIGN, SETTING, PARTICIPANTS A large prospective GWAS including 1,379 patients with stage II/III colon cancer who received L-OHP-based adjuvant chemotherapy (mFOLFOX6/CAPOX) under the phase II (JOIN/JFMC41) or the phase III (ACHIVE/JFMC47) trial. MAIN OUTCOMES AND MEASURES First, GWAS comparison of worst grade PSN (grade 0/1 vs. 2/3) was performed. Next, to minimize the impact of ambiguity in PSN grading, extreme PSN phenotypes were selected and analyzed by GWAS. SNPs that could predict time to recovery from PSN were also evaluated. In addition, SNPs associated with L-OHP-induced allergic reactions (AR) and time to disease recurrence were explored. RESULTS No SNPs exceeded the genome-wide significance (p < 5.0 × 10-8) in either GWAS comparison of worst grade PSN, extreme PSN phenotypes, or time to recovery from PSN. Association study focusing on AR or time to disease recurrence also failed to reveal any significant SNPs. CONCLUSION AND RELEVANCE Our results highlight the challenges of utilizing SNPs for predicting susceptibility to L-OHP-induced PSN in daily clinical practice.

Abstract
Background:The ORIGAMI study is a multicenter, observational study to evaluate the effectiveness, safety, and patient-reported outcomes of abatacept (ABA) in Japanese patients with csDMARD-resistant, Simplified Disease Activity Index (SDAI)-moderate, biologic-naïve rheumatoid arthritis (RA). ABA has shown better effectiveness/efficacy in RA patients with anti-cyclic citrullinated peptide antibody (ACPA) positive (1) and high ACPA titer (2) compared to ACPA negative and low ACPA titer, respectively. However, more accurate predictors of effectiveness in clinical practice are needed than ACPA status.Objectives:This post-hoc analysis is aimed to determine the association between ACPA and ABA effectiveness (disease activity and physical function) or retention rate and to investigate other factors associated with the effectiveness of ABA in patients enrolled in the ORIGAMI study.Methods:Of the 279 patients in the effectiveness analysis set of the ORIGAMI study, 270 patients with baseline ACPA measurement were analyzed. The patients were divided into the ACPA-positive group (ACPA +ve, ≥4.5 U/mL at baseline) and the ACPA-negative group (ACPA –ve, <4.5 U/mL). Patients’ characteristics, changes in disease activity and physical function (Japanese Health Assessment Questionnaire; J-HAQ) through 52 weeks, and retention rates of ABA at week 52 were evaluated. Baseline characteristics and use of concomitant drugs were analyzed as independent variables by multiple regression analysis using a standard linear model adjusted by SDAI at week 0 to identify factors associated with SDAI change at week 52. In addition, the interaction effects among ACPA status, RF status, and the factor that was significantly associated with SDAI change in multiple regression analysis on changes in SDAI were explored.Results:The numbers of ACPA +ve and –ve patients were 226 and 44, respectively. ACPA values (mean ± SD, U/mL) were 280.3 ± 376.8 and 0.9 ± 0.7, and rheumatoid factor (RF) values were 174.8 ± 302.6 and 20.9 ± 61.7 in the ACPA +ve and –ve groups, respectively. Mean (95% confidence interval) changes in SDAI at week 52 were −11.3 (−12.4 to −10.3) and −8.0 (−10.5 to −5.5), and those in J-HAQ were −0.27 (−0.34 to −0.20) and −0.16 (−0.34 to 0.01) in the ACPA +ve and –ve groups, respectively. In the Kaplan–Meier analysis, the retention rates of ABA at week 52 in the ACPA +ve and –ve groups were 72.1% and 58.7%, (discontinuation for any reason), and 91.6% and 75.7% (discontinuation because of lack of effectiveness), respectively. In a multiple regression analysis, the duration of disease (< 1 year) was associated with the change in SDAI at week 52. With respect to SDAI changes, the estimated difference of ACPA +ve and disease duration (< 1 year), ACPA +ve and disease duration (≥1 year), and ACPA –ve and disease duration (< 1 year), versus ACPA −ve and disease duration (≥ 1 year), were −4.26 (p = 0.022), −0.82 (p = 0.618), and −0.93 (p = 0.716), respectively (Fig. 1). The estimated difference of ACPA +ve and RF +ve, ACPA +ve and RF –ve, and ACPA –ve and RF +ve, versus ACPA –ve and RF –ve, were −2.48 (p = 0.060), −2.77 (p = 0.107), and −5.48 (p = 0.087), respectively.Conclusion:A higher retention rate as well as better effectiveness of ABA on disease activity and physical function in ACPA +ve group versus ACPA –ve group were shown in the simple subgroup analysis. ABA effectiveness on the SDAI change was significantly better in patients with disease duration <1 year and ACPA +ve compared to those with ACPA −ve and disease duration ≥ 1 year.References:[1]Harrold LR et al.

Neck Location on the Outer Convexity is a Predictor of Incomplete Occlusion in Treatment with the Pipeline Embolization Device: Clinical and Angiographic Outcomes. AJNR Am J Neuroradiol 2021; 42:119-125.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE With the increasing use of the Pipeline Embolization Device for the treatment of aneurysms, predictors of clinical and angiographic outcomes are needed. This study aimed to identify predictors of incomplete occlusion at last angiographic follow-up. MATERIALS AND METHODS In our retrospective, single-center cohort study, 105 ICA aneurysms in 89 subjects were treated with Pipeline Embolization Devices. Patients were followed per standardized protocol. Clinical and angiographic outcomes were analyzed. We introduced a new morphologic classification based on the included angle of the parent artery against the neck location: outer convexity type (included angle, <160°), inner convexity type (included angle, >200°), and lateral wall type (160° ≤ included angle ≤200°). This classification reflects the metal coverage rate and flow dynamics. RESULTS Imaging data were acquired in 95.3% of aneurysms persistent at 6 months. Complete occlusion was achieved in 70.5%, and incomplete occlusion, in 29.5% at last follow-up. Multivariable regression analysis revealed that 60 years of age or older (OR, 5.70; P = .001), aneurysms with the branching artery from the dome (OR, 10.56; P = .002), fusiform aneurysms (OR, 10.2; P = .009), and outer convexity-type saccular aneurysms (versus inner convexity type: OR, 30.3; P < .001; versus lateral wall type: OR, 9.71; P = .001) were independently associated with a higher rate of incomplete occlusion at the last follow-up. No permanent neurologic deficits or rupture were observed in the follow-up period. CONCLUSIONS The aneurysm neck located on the outer convexity is a new, incomplete occlusion predictor, joining older age, fusiform aneurysms, and aneurysms with the branching artery from the dome. No permanent neurologic deficits or rupture was observed in the follow-up, even with incomplete occlusion.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Lipoprotein(a) [LP(a)] is known to be a robust lipid marker associated with cardiovascular events. Though coronary artery disease and peripheral artery disease (PAD) are often coexist, little is known about the relationship between LP(a) and PAD among patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS).
Purpose
The purpose of this study is to examine if LP(a) is of predictive value for PAD among ACS patients in Japanese population.
Methods
Of consecutive 238 ACS patient who received successful primary PCI, a total of 175 patients were enrolled in the current study. We excluded the patients who received hemodialysis (n=10), required multidisciplinary treatment (n=36) and incomplete data (n=17). PAD was diagnosed as ankle brachial index <0.9. Multiple lipid biomarkers [LP(a), low-density lipoprotein (LDL-C), high-density lipoprotein (HDL-C), malondialdehyde-modified LDL (MDA-LDL), docosahexaenoic acid and arachidonic acid] were compared between patients with PAD (n=21) and without PAD (n=154). Further, multivariable logistic regression models were used to assess if LP(a) was associated with PAD. In addition, serum LP(a) level were compared between 3 groups according to pattern of PAD [none (n=154), unilateral (n=10) and bilateral PAD (n=11), respectively].
Results
Compared to patients without PAD, those with PAD were older (74.4 vs. 65.4 years, p=0.003), and had a higher prevalence of chronic kidney disease (CKD) (61.9% vs. 20.1%, p<0.001), diabetes mellitus (DM) (66.7% vs. 27.3%, p<0.001). Serum LP(a) level was significantly higher in patients with PAD (36.4 vs. 18.5 mg/dl, p<0.001), whereas LDL-C and MDA-LDL were significantly lower in PAD (92.0 vs. 109.5 mg/dl, p=0.015 and 98.6 vs. 119.5 mg/dl, p=0.046, respectively). After adjusting for LDL-C and MDA-LDL, LP(a) >30 mg/dl was independently associated with a presence of PAD (OR 5.67, 95% CI 2.09–15.4, p=0.0006). When adjusting for CKD and DM in a different model, LP(a) >30 mg/dl was similarly associated with PAD (OR 4.98, 95% CI 1.66–14.9, p=0.004). Serum LP(a) levels were significantly higher in bilateral PAD group compared to none PAD group (Figure).
Conclusion
LP(a) was a useful lipid biomarker for the prevalence and severity of PAD among patients with ACS in Japanese population.

Abstract
Kounis syndrome is an anaphylactic reaction leading to acute coronary syndrome. The acute treatment of anaphylaxis is epinephrine; however, epinephrine may cause coronary vasoconstriction, reduce coronary blood flow, increase myocardial oxygen demand, and worsen myocardial ischemia. On the other hand, coronary vasodilation, a treatment for acute coronary syndrome, can aggravate hypotension in patients with anaphylaxis. Herein, the authors report a case of type II Kounis syndrome, with vasospasm in a patient with coronary disease, requiring the administration of epinephrine and a coronary vasodilator for resuscitation. The authors administered intravenous epinephrine continuously from lower dosages and performed delicate titration. The coronary vasodilator nicorandil, which has little effect on hemodynamics, also was administered. These treatments improved hemodynamics without complications. Circulatory management that considers both anaphylaxis and coronary lesions is crucial to improve prognosis in this syndrome.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG) is a well established treatment for severe obesity and type 2 diabetes. Although the gut microbiota is linked to the efficacy of LSG, the underlying mechanisms remain elusive. The effect of LSG for morbid obesity on the gut microbiota and bile acids was assessed here.
Methods
Severely obese subjects who were candidates for LSG were included and followed until 6 months after surgery. The composition and abundance of the microbiota and bile acids in faeces were assessed by 16S ribosomal RNA sequencing, quantitative PCR and liquid chromatography–mass spectrometry.
Results
In total, 28 patients with a mean(s.d.) BMI of 44·2(6·6) kg/m2 were enrolled. These patients had achieved excess weight loss of 53·2(19·0) per cent and showed improvement in metabolic diseases by 6 months after LSG, accompanied by an alteration in the faecal microbial community. The increase in α-diversity and abundance of specific taxa, such as Rikenellaceae and Christensenellaceae, was strongly associated with reduced faecal bile acid levels. These changes had a significant positive association with excess weight loss and metabolic alterations. However, the total number of faecal bacteria was lower in patients before (mean(s.d.) 10·26(0·36) log10 cells per g faeces) and after (10·39(0·29) log10 cells per g faeces) operation than in healthy subjects (10·83(0·27) log10 cells per g faeces).
Conclusion
LSG is associated with a reduction in faecal bile acids and greater abundance of specific bacterial taxa and α-diversity that may contribute to the metabolic changes.

Abstract
Background Mental disorders and suicide resulting from overwork or work-related stress have become major occupational health issues worldwide, particularly in Asian countries. However, no studies have reported incidence rates of mental disorders and suicide by sex, age group and industry, using a national database containing all cases involving compensation in Asian countries. Aims The present study examined incidence rates of occupational mental disorders and suicide by sex, age group and industry using a database containing all cases involving compensation for mental disorders and suicide in Japan over a 5-year period. Methods Cases involving compensation for mental disorders and suicide in Japan between January 2010 and March 2015 were analysed. Incidence rates over the 5-year study period were calculated by sex, age group and industry. Results In total, 1990 cases involving compensation for mental disorders and suicide (619 women and 1371 men) between January 2010 and March 2015 were analysed. The incidence rate involving compensation was higher in employees aged between 30 and 39 years. In men, incidence rates were higher in 'accommodation/eating/drinking services', 'information/communication' and 'scientific research, professional and technical services'. In these industries, incidence rates were particularly high for those aged 29 years or younger. Conclusions Our findings highlight the importance of promoting mental health support for younger employees and increasing awareness of their working conditions. Differences in incidence rates by sex, age and industry should be taken into consideration in the development of a national policy and industry- and age-specific preventive measures for overwork-related mental disorders and suicide.

Abstract
Endotoxemia often occurs in patients with gram-positive infections. The possible mechanism is thought to be bacterial translocation after enterocyte hypoperfusion injury. However, the association between endotoxemia and enterocyte injury among patients with gram-positive septic shock has never been assessed. The aim of this study was to evaluate the association between endotoxemia and enterocyte injury in gram-positive septic shock patients and to evaluate the association among endotoxemia, subsequent clinical course, and other related factors.This was a posthoc analysis of a prospective observational study that evaluated the capability of intestinal fatty acid-binding protein (I-FABP), an indicator of enterocyte injury, to predict mortality. Among 57 patients in septic shock, those whose causative microorganisms were gram positive were included. The correlation between endotoxin activity (EA), which indicates endotoxemia, and I-FABP levels upon admission to the intensive care unit (ICU), the clinical course, and other related factors were evaluated.A total of 21 patients were examined. One-third of the patients presented with high EA levels at the time of ICU admission. However, there was no significant correlation between EA and I-FABP levels (Spearman ρ = 0.002, P = .993). Additionally, high EA levels were not associated with abdominal complications after ICU admission or mortality. Similarly, high EA levels were not associated with severity scores, inotropic scores, or lactate levels upon ICU admission, which were previously reported to be factors related to high EA levels.In this posthoc analysis, no correlation was observed between endotoxemia and enterocyte injury among patients in gram-positive septic shock. Additionally, high EA levels were not associated with the clinical course and reported factors related to endotoxemia. Although our results need to be validated in a large prospective cohort study, hypoperfusion enterocyte injury might not be a cause of endotoxemia in these patients. Thus, if there is no correlation between EA and I-FABP levels, other mechanisms that induce high EA levels among patients with gram-positive septic shock should be elucidated.

Abstract
Gut microbiome development affects infant health and postnatal physiology. The gut microbe assemblages of preterm infants have been reported to be different from that of healthy term infants. However, the patterns of ecosystem development and inter-individual differences remain poorly understood. We investigated hospitalised preterm infant gut microbiota development using 16S rRNA gene amplicons and the metabolic profiles of 268 stool samples obtained from 17 intensive care and 42 term infants to elucidate the dynamics and equilibria of the developing microbiota. Infant gut microbiota were predominated by Gram-positive cocci, Enterobacteriaceae or Bifidobacteriaceae, which showed sequential transitions to Bifidobacteriaceae-dominated microbiota. In neonatal intensive care unit preterm infants (NICU preterm infants), Staphylococcaceae abundance was higher immediately after birth than in healthy term infants, and Bifidobacteriaceae colonisation tended to be delayed. No specific NICU-cared infant enterotype-like cluster was observed, suggesting that the constrained environment only affected the pace of transition, but not infant gut microbiota equilibrium. Moreover, infants with Bifidobacteriaceae-dominated microbiota showed higher acetate concentrations and lower pH, which have been associated with host health. Our data provides an in-depth understanding of gut microbiota development in NICU preterm infants and complements earlier studies. Understanding the patterns and inter-individual differences of the preterm infant gut ecosystem is the first step towards controlling the risk of diseases in premature infants by targeting intestinal microbiota.
